My comment went missing after i sent it, but here I am reposting it.
The song I remember was sang by a man, and I think it was by The Tragically Hip.
It was a slower, more sadder-feeling song.
The chourus went: "it's a long, long, looohoong, time coming."
Or something like that.
If you have any ideas, please respond!
Thank you! more »

Maybe Come On Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runner?

As it turns out, the song I was looking for was not a mix up of these two songs.
I found it on the 80's music station on my TV yesterday. It was called Innocence, by a band called Harlequin.

Maybe Piano Man by Billy Joel?

Oh, I'll check it out!

Hi there! I'm on the search for a very specific version of Psycho Killer by the Talking Heads (the acoustic version from their album "Talking Heads: 77"
In the song, the singer sounds a bit more aggressive then in any other version I have heard on YouTube.
For example, when the lyric "Can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire. Don't touch me I'm a real live wire." is sang more like "Can't sleep 'cause my bed's ON FIRE. Don't touch me I'm a REAL LIVE WIRE."
I have no idea where the version I'm used to came from, but I found it as an MP3 file on an old MP3 player simply labeled as "Psycho Killer - Talking Heads" or "Talking Heads - Psycho Killer.
Can someone help me find this version of this good song? Thanks.
(Note: It may have been a live performance of the song.) more »

I am most likely wrong, but you may be thinking of Pompeii by Bastille, and you misremembered "But if you close your eyes" as "When I close my eyes."

Found it! It was The Tears Of A Clown by Smokey Robinson And The Miracles.

Hello, I'm in the search of a song that I used to hear very commonly as a kid.
From what I remember, it was a female singer, and most likely from the 1960's-70's.
I vaguely remember the name being something like "The Crying Clown" or "Crying Clown" and it featured a certain instrument somewhat higher pitched that would repeat a catchy tune throughout the song.
The instrument would go: "Do do do, dododo do do doo doo." Repeatedly.
I'm on a search for this song, and the other night I was hunting high and low trying to find it on YouTube.
Thank you for your time, and have a nice day! more »

From the way you are saying that the lyrics sounds pretty random, you may be thinking of We Didn't Start The Fire by Billy Joel, a very popular song from 1989
It also has some pretty catchy keyboard/synth

This sounds like probably my favorite song, Down Under by Men At Work.
The Lyrics "I come from a land down under" "You better run, you better take cover." are the ones you most likely remember. more »

Thank you! That's the right song!

I'm looking for a song from possibly the 90's that was somewhat sad.
It sounded like Oasis, or Green Day, and the lyric I can remember was either: "Oh, ____'s away, Don't go away,"
or
"Oh, ____'s away, ____ Can wait,"
(In the second version I put down, it was most likely a name in the blank between 'away,' and 'Can'.)
(Note: It's not Wonderwall, but has a similar feeling to it, just stronger, and the singer--which is male--was yelling the chorus)
That's all, thank you for your time, please help me find this song! more »

Could be Piano Man by Billy Joel, not completely sure I'm right.

(The song I probably mixed up with it was Hold The Line by Toto.)
