Help- Song Identification
 

Hey all:

I was walking around campus and I heard this hip hop/R and B song I kind of liked. The song was coming from the stadium speakers, so there was a lot of echoing. It was a slower-mid tempo song, with a pseudo guitar riff during the chorus I think, and the singer (a guy) was saying something like "I gonna make you so late", so something like that during the chorus. Anyone know what song this is?

Thanks In Advance,
Ethan

Just google the lyrics and usually the song/artist will pop up giving you some idea until you find a song that matches. That's what I do anyway if I'm trying to find out a song.

The only R&B/ Hip HOp song that comes to mind with a guitar riff is Just A Dream by Nelly.

Otherwise, I have no clue. :/

Well, only thing is I couldn't really hear the words. What I said I thought the words were, weren't the words.

And the Nelly song wasn't it! :( Thank you though.

Er... a very misheard Grenade by Bruno Mars? :lol: The syllable sounds and number of them seem to fit.

Unfortunately not- the song I heard was much slower.

I don't know if it was a current or older song, though it definitely sounded more current.

Since we're on misheard lyrics, I went for years wondering just wtf "Cadillac Noon" was?

Until I finally googled the lyrics for Trace Adkins' "Every Light in the House Is On" :lol:


Every light in the house is on
The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn
The front walk looks like runway lights
It's kinda like noon in the dead of night :shocked:



I'm stupid sometimes.

:lol: Too good! I used to think 2:17 was "I just gotta say I want your hands, I don't wanna live without your hands" :distress:

Regarding misheard lyrics, for years I thought that the line "I'm as blind as a fool can be" from Rod Stewarts Maggie May was "I'm as blind as a f***ing bee" :shocked:

When I was a kid, on billy Joel's "we didn't start the fire", I thought "trouble in the Suez" was "trouble in the sewers"

Wtf. :confused:

I can see where you came from on that one!! :laugh:

Not only did I think that line was "trouble with the sewage," I also thought "children of thalidomide" was "children and their little minds."

Yowza!

Brad

i thought he said that, too. except i thought it was "children of the little minds". whatever. i was like, 12 when that song came out :laugh:
