All right, this is my last-ditch effort to find the name of the group who sings this song. I'd like to use this in a lesson, but I don't know the name of the song, and only know some of the lyrics. They are:

(From the beginning of the song)

"Got me thinking bout love, got me thinking bout love..." (repeated about 12 times)
and then there's:
"...it's Super Tuesday on a Friday night. Got me thinking bout love..."

I know, it looks stupid, but it's a nice little ditty, I think. The singer is a man who's singing in a high falsetto. It sounds sort of older, but it's not, it's a fairly recent song (perhaps late 90s, early 00s).
Like I said, my last ditch. Anyone?
Thanks.

The Tiger Lilies? These lyrics don't ring any bells but they sound mad enough to be them.

Dutch pop group Daryll-Ann could be considered one of music's best-kept secrets - a point of pride for many indie souls - but one has to wonder just how radio can live with itself for not yet embracing the group's infectious single "Surely Justice." "It's super Tuesday on a Friday night," affable singer Jelle Paulusma announces before espousing the wonders of running from the law and launching into a chorus so hopelessly catchy that trying to delete it from memory is about as easy as whistling with a mouthful of Saltines



Does this help?

It's not "I Beleive In A Little Thing Called Love" by The Darkness is it??

Ding, Ding! We have a WINNER. I'd totally forgotten about Daryll-Ann! That was/is it!. They're a great group, I like all of their stuff.
(I looked on their site, and found out it was "Got me thinking about the law", not "love" as I erroneously posted, and had thought it was for the better part of two years.)
THANK YOU, Guty. I'll sleep much better tonight!
