What's the name of this song?

[CarlKillerMiller]

After hearing it on the radio last week during a road trip, it popped suddenly into my head during dinner, and I can't think of the name. All I know is this:

It sounds quite old
Sung by an african-american man?
Features the phrase "things never change, like something something and rain" in there

That's honestly all that I've got. I tried google, no dice.

Appreciate it.

What kind of radio station were you listening to? Soft rock? Country?

 

[meltdown75]

it's not the remake of that one tune is it? on the R&B stations? the sample is:

:music: i know this... much is... true :music:

and then the rappers say "for real" or something?

 

[CarlKillerMiller]

I don't remember. If it would help, I could voice record myself humming a few bars.

I did that once and the result was not pretty. Plus, it didn't help, even though the song I was looking for was a popular one (Allman brothers' Jessica)

Yeah really, was this R&B, Rap, Motown, or what?

Nope, that's not it, strangely enough

Would it kill you to post the Musical genre?

 

[CarlKillerMiller]

Sounded like old-ish soft rock, like lounge music.

 

[Ornery]

Probably ain't it, but here's a nice tune...

 

[McCarthy]

My google search for songs consists of "two to three words" +anotherword +lyrics

Usually works.

That came up with :
Blue System Venice : In The Rain
Trick Pony : Rain

And a bunch that definately aren't African-american. Those two I don't know so maybe?

Hm, I could hum a bit, but where would I host the file?
