Are there any songs that you've always liked, but never really knew the name of it or the artist? Well, I was at a restaurant the other day and I heard this song that I had always liked, but never really knew the name of it or the artist. However, after googling the words: 'lyrics dance with me i'll be your partner can't you see' I found it.



Does anyone else know of any songs like this?

I was into music thru the 70s 80s and 90s so very few songs got by me. But somehow this song did. On seeing the commercial I vaguely remembered the tune but could not place the name or artist, had to look the song up, it was from 1983. The commercial first aired in 2007.

This is one I only heard in stores the past several years. Always thought it was called Take Me Away. After hearing it so many times I had to look it up. Its called Pocket Full of Sunshine.

Someone here on CD helped me out with this one a few years ago, I never really knew the name of it before but it was such a special sounding song to me, from a special time back in the early 80s - KROQ.

I like that.

Also, there are more that I have heard on the radio(which they didn't give the name of) that I had to look up, but I just can't think of the name of those songs right now.

I've always liked this song. But never knew the name of it or the artist until now.
