Hi,

So I heard a song on 2fm just before 11pm last night, and after much searching of their website I'm still unable to find out who sings it or what the name is. It was played as a time filler in between a podcast and the news hour.

It an upbeat pop/indie rock song, similar sound to The Strokes.

Here are some of the lyrics (which I've googled in different combinations, but still can't find it):

"Don't you know, that I'd do anything to impress, that's why I compliment you on your sense of dress, the way you always look so fine"

"As we roll down the street, stumbling cheek to cheek, the boys say she's fine"

"Not now I've tried so hard,
Not now I've come so far,
My house is only 20 yards up the street,
We _________ if you just shuffle your feet"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here's a link:

http://media.todayfm.com/listenback/113/sunday/1/popup

it starts about 2.53 mins in

I'm sure I've heard it before, possibly in a movie
Cheers and thanks

It's called Soul Vibration by J Walk.

Song from a few years ago. There was a white guy with a beard and long hair with a ghetto blaster - the music drives people wild. He is in some country like Jamaica. At the end of the music video he is in jail with a shaved head.

Thats the one. I think the title is

I just discovered that the song title is actually 'Ya Mama'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_for_Shelter_/_Ya_Mama

'Push the Tempo' makes more sense.

"Woah -oho- oho - oo and the chorus melody hook is similar to Becks track Why Dont You, Maybe. In fact its a bit Beckish but more poppier with female vocals too.

Is it the new girl band Stooshe?
