Title: Song help, please
Post by: SuffolkPunch on December 07, 2006, 01:20:00 PM
I've got a song stuck in my head that I want to download from iTunes. The problem is I don't know its name or who sang it! all I can tell you is the chorus starts "When did the boy become a man" or something similar.

Sure it's a fella singing. Not much help, I know, but any suggestions and I'll try it on iTunes to see if it's the right one!

Broken Land by the Adventures

These rivers run too deep
With schemes of men for days that lay ahead
They sell their souls so cheap
They breed mistrust and fill my heart with dread

When did the boy become a man
And lose his life to learn
So much confusion to this plan
These times are not changing

Show me the love to keep us together
Open up your hearts don't turn me away
Comfort me through this stormy weather
From where I stand,
I see a broken land

This boy had learned to fail
In times like these to cry seems so absurd
His own life's crisis pales
In the shadow of this truly dying world

These are the games we played at school
Our hands raised in despair
With no exception to the rule
These times are not changing

Show me the love to keep us together
Open up your hearts don't turn me away
Comfort me through this stormy weather
From where I stand,
I see a broken land

Show me the love to keep us together
Open up your hearts don't turn me away
Comfort me through this stormy weather
From where I stand,
I see a broken land

ring any bells?

so its a song, you dont know how the tune goes, you dont know whether the singer is male or female and you know of only one line in the song and aren't even sure that the one line is correct - and we have to guess?

yikes

Suffolk, theres a great website where you record yourself whistleing, and then upload it to the site and it will go through its database and match the tune to the song

If you have a microphone, whistle the song for 15 seconds or so, record it in wmv format, and then post back in here and I'll give you the URL

regards

this one ???

Artist/Band: Emerson Drive
Lyrics for Song: Boy Becomes a Man
Lyrics for Album: Countrified
(Brad Mates/Danick Dupelle/Keith Follese/Adrienne Follese)

I was only twelve years old
The day was warm, my heart went cold
Mama said, your daddy's gone
Son, you're gonna have to grow up fast
The two of us is all we have
I need you to be strong

That's the day a boy became a man
Every broken road and stepping stone
Has made me who I am
I learned to love, I learned to cry
And even how to say goodbye
And I'm still trying to understand
How a boy became a man

She was only seventeen
The prettiest girl I'd ever seen
On a blanket underneath the stars
By the river we got swept away
In just one night my whole life changed
We should have never gone that far

That's the day a boy became a man
Every broken road and stepping stone
Has made me who I am
I learned to love, I learned to laugh
How to give someone all I have
And I'm still trying to understand
How a boy became a man

On the day we swore our love
In front of God and everyone

That's the day a boy became a man
With an angel walking by my side
And a baby in my hand
I learned to laugh, I learned to cry
And just be thankful for this life
And I think I finally understand
How a boy becomes a man

Now we're talking...an 80's SAW classic!!   ;karabiner;

But , Suffolk, in terms of the song you're looking for Claw's option seems to fit the bill.   

It's on I-tunes too so you could have a preview for confirmation.

Nope, deffo not Emerson Drive. Thanks for all your suggestions, though. The two daftest were:
Merry Christmas, Slade - Monkey Matt
Happy Birthday, Stevie Wonder - Colch "Feeling a bit Rash" Kev.

I shall continue my quest until I find the song, whereupon I shall probably discover I don't like it after all!

I didn't think it would be that one, because I listened to it and it was rubbish!
