what is this song PLEASE?

[MeltedFlumps]

OK not much to go on here at all I am afraid.....

I have heard over the last couple of weeks on BBC3 when they are trailing future coming programmes.

Features a guy and a girl singing sort of at each other. The girl sounds like Beth Ditto. It is a sort of rocky aching ballad.

And that's it...... sorry.

Any ideas?

going by process of elimination
Is is kings and queens by Thirty seconds to Mars? That is on the being human/vampire diaries advert

or Paramore..I heard one of their songs recently on a BBC trailer

Thanks tartan for trying. Definitely K&Q 30 seconds - I just listened to it to check. I tried a few songs by Paramore esp the ones from Twilight and it wasn't them either.

NOT, NOT Kings and Queens.
Quite an important word I missed out there!

Could be The XX - they're a boy/girl duo - very now apparently!

The girl in The XX doesn't sound like Beth Ditto though.

Meltedflumps, can you remember any of the lyrics? That would help.

Snow patrol and Martha Wainwright - Set fire to the third bar?

Here

Although no, she doesn't sound like Beth Ditto

JEREMYVILE you are an absolute genius - it is that song by Snow Patrol and Martha Wainwright. How the hell did you figure it out? Did you stay up all night on my behalf?

(OK maybe the Beth Ditto thing was a bit of a bum steer, but after hearing just a little bit on TV that was the best I could do)

I am off to download it now. Thank you so much. I love MN.

Yay!

I LOVE this song, aching was a good word to use so thats probably what made me think of it... Enjoy!
