Title: Name That Song
Post by: walrus on Monday, December 25, 2006, 23:05:39
This is driving me crazy....  11pm on Xmas Day and I'm desperately trying to find it.  I got Clubland 10 for Xmas (yes I know) and its reminded me I need this song.

"Can't take my eyes off you,
You can't take my eyes off me..."

Its maybe a year old, played in clubs a lot when it was out, kinda dancey, sorta sounds like it was sung by a black person.  Any ideas?   :|

I think he ment it sounds like it was sung by a black person. Maybe in a Senagalese accent.

maybe it was just a bad recording and the vinyl made loads of clicking sounds

Can't take my eyes off  you....Frankie Valli classic.   Best version no doubt by Andy Williams, who could croon a toon.....just as well he found something to do after his promising STFC career was truncated by injury.

  Don't suppose anyone else here recalls the Andy Williams show, with the classic Cookie Bear sketch.... ‘No cookies! Not now, not ever...NEVER.....bear falls over...priceless, honest.

I doubt it's that song though Reg. Even a pleb like Walrus would know that???

The next line sounds like "it's jus in a park..."  :?

It's not an oldie - it's within the last 2 years max.  It sounds very R'n'B.  I wish I could show someone the video, most of you would probably get it in a sec.  The singer sounds a little like Akon (it's not Akon).

It was DJ Luck & MC Neat....  Not sure of the title.  I've got it down as Sambucca but I'm pretty sure it's not called that....   :|
