Found the song - Rolando - 03-10-2022 Last February, I asked for some help regarding a song: Rolando wrote:https://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1,2595235,2595235,quote=1#REPLY Never did find the song, but I did learn some good Jackson Brown songs.... Well, I heard it on the Radio today, and quick Shazam got it for me. Added it to a playlist! The Greg Kihn Band - The Breakup Song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLFfSDEA26o We had broken up for good Just an hour before Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah And now I'm staring at the bodies As they're dancing 'cross the floor Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah And then the band slowed the tempo And the music gets you down Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah It was the same old song With a melancholy sound Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah They don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't write 'em like that anymore We'd been living together for a million years Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah But now it feels so strange out of the atmospheres Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah And now I'm staring at the bodies As they're dancing so slow Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore Mm, now I wind up staring at an empty glass Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah 'Cause it's so easy to say That she'll forget your past Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah They don't write 'em like that anymore No, they just don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't, no, they don't, no no, uh-uh They just don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't Re: Found the song - Markintosh - 03-10-2022 Back in the day, the Greg Kihn Band put on a good live show too.

Re: Found the song - N-OS X-tasy! - 03-10-2022 To OP: Sorry, but I would have never guessed "The Breakup Song" from "pom papapa pom". You're right, though -- great song. My favorite from them, in fact. Re: Found the song - PeterB - 03-10-2022 N-OS X-tasy! wrote: Ditto, and plus it doesn't really sound at all like Jackson Browne to me. Jackson Browne has such a distinctive voice, you can't really mistake him for anybody else. Re: Found the song - Sam3 - 03-10-2022 N-OS X-tasy! wrote: One of my favorite songs. Especially from that era. I used to play it on my college radio show as often as I could get away with it.
