Song finding wonders with long memories

Can anyone work a miracle?
I am trying to remember a song from years ago - maybe around 2000
female artist
summer hit
cute accent - not British
the only lyrics I can remember are maybe

I I I cannot see

or perhaps

… so blind you cannot see

it was perky, summery a bit staccato - any ideas?!?

Too blind to see by Kim Syms? ( too blind to see what you were doing). It's an early 90s song .

Persus · 13/06/2024 21:24

Oooh thanks for the reply - that’s not it. It’s quirkier than that and probably more dancy…

Husband thinks the singer was petite and blonde

Makes me think of the Cardigans, maybe? My favourite game. They're more sort of rock than pop, if it was a summery hit.

Quite recent then - to some of us.

My memory stops around mid 90s. (Anything from the 60s to the 90s I've got a chance 😁

If you can remember a couple lines and Google them it might tell you. It's worked for me a few times 😀

I literally cleared my reply to quote you. This was my guess too.

Great minds!

Great song

Persus · 14/06/2024 06:48

Ooh I can see how my description fits but no neither of those. I think the singer is European ? It’s driving me mad!

One of those brainless new radio 2 DJs does this as a phone-in feature. I can’t remember his name… 🤣🤣

Aperolschitts · 14/06/2024 12:02

DJ Encore ft Engelina - I see right through to you?

Persus · 14/06/2024 17:59

Ha ha sorrynotathome!

Tge last one isn’t it either - my description just suck or it was never a hit!

Imagibe saying aye in a high voice then going lower with each repeated aye for the count of three - aye aye aye can not see? Blah blah I just walk away?

it’s a funny sounding song not a dance cool as the last.

Found it!

It’s - It Just Won’t Do by Tim Deluxe😂😂

MrsProfessor... hey thank you, it's so good to be able to sing to an app, and get the answer...
I've not got the best voice, but when I sang Minnie Rippertons "Loving You"
(not easy 🤪), it came up with that answer, no problem..,
Glad the op finally hit on the answer to her musical dilemma....

Persus · 14/06/2024 19:36

The big mystery is why I had to know😂

in the interests of helping others the app above didn’t recognise my singing but Soundhound did!
