Thank goodness for Carrie and Monica as I was THIS CLOSE to getting really fucking crazy just now trying to figure this out.
Listening to “High Society” by The Bees (U.S.) and the chorus starts with “Ooooo, high society….” “Oooooo, notoriety…” and it …SOUNDS JUST LIKE… “Oooooo, you’ll wait a long time for me….” from the song “I’m Not in Love” which was apparently a hit in the ’70s for some group called 10 CC (?) and covered in the 90s by Will Power (?).
Don’t know which one it is that I know, but that song was playing clear as a bell in my head, yet a) I couldn’t figure out what song it was and b) I was singing the words wrong (I was singing “oooo, been a long time for me“). But then I called Carrie and she said “I don’t know what it is but here’s more of it” and started singing “I’m not in love, so don’t forget it…” then we conferenced in Monica and two seconds later, she was playing it for us! Woot!
My friends kick ass. I’m just sayin’.
