Lyrics went something like:

I spot a light
................
and all the things that you do
and it was all yellow.

That's Coldplay "Yellow."

EDIT: Lyrics:
Yellow

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow."

So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.

Cos you were all "Yellow,"
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know for you,
I'd bleed myself dry for you,
I'd bleed myself dry.

It's true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.


Excellent song. :)

I agree. Coldplay sounds nothing like Dave Matthews. But they are both good in their own rights however.

Actually, I'm more of an 80's, early 90's music guy :Q .

I like some songs by DMB but not enough to buy any of their albums.

Thanks for the title guys.

They sure sucked hard at last nights Grammy's. I was embarrassed for them.

I've kind of given up on pop music with stuff like Nsuck, Christina Agorilla, etc. so I'm kind of lost. Thought he sounded a bit like Dave Matthews or Five for Fighting.
