Re: I try it again after some time
I've tried listening to Chicago, BS&T, Ballin' Jack, Lighthouse, Chase, but I haven't found what I'm still looking for.
Do you have any other idea?

Re: I try it again after some time
I wondered - could it be a song from a musical?

Re: I try it again after some time
In this case, I got help from an oldies fan.
Originally it was this song: Bill Deal & The Rhondels - "19 Years (Everything I Do Is Wrong)"
This is a review in the weekly Record World:
This represents a real departure for deal. Very polished number with excellent harmonies and a Chicagoesque arrangement is a far cry from "May I?".

Re: I try it again after some time
I didn't notice you had posted it here, too, mroldies (I'm sorry, I don't think I know your actual name). I'm glad I was able to help out with at least one song in question.
The answer to the song in question:
Tom Diehl

Re: I try it again after some time
Tom, thanks again. I have another similar musical problem.
See my entry "Another mysterious song sung in Czech". It is probably an even bigger "nut to crack"...
"To crack the nut" - this is a synonym for "solve the problem" in Czech. Do you have something similar in English?

Re: I try it again after some time
In answer to your language question, we do have similar expressions in English.

Re: I try it again after some time
Lorne, thanks for the clarification. As I see it, the term "hard nut" is everywhere in the world...
And my entry "Another mysterious song sung in Czech" is just like that.
I got a tip - Judy Singh and Marti Webb's first albums. I tried but I don't find what I'm looking for...
