This song reminds me of an 90s/early 00s poprock song and i can't figure out which one.
Anyone care to help?

The intro reminds me of something I'd hear on a 70s TV show.

Why not get a thread started for each song? Curious to get people's thoughts on this one...

I think it's one of those rare songs where the groove of the verses is awesome, but it just seems to fall flat on the chorus. I've only listened a few times, so maybe it will grow.

I think the beginning strongly resembles the intro of "Last Goodbye" by Jeff Buckley. Maybe that's what you're thinking of.

Musically I like the groove, but this could be right at home on Riot Act. What sets it apart from most of the songs on Riot Act is the meanigful lyrics and passionate delivery by Mr. Vedder. This one is growing on me quickly.

It's got a slight U2 feel, but being a Neil Finn ( split enz, crowded house ) fan, I hear his guitar work in there. There's a specific song from Neil that starts out very much the same.....it'll come to me.

The intro is pretty much a mix from "Don´t dream it´s over" and "Weather with you" that both happen to be Crowded House Songs

It's last goodbye--do you know that song Dkfan9? The chorus goes

Kiss me, please kiss me
Kiss me out of my mind (I think--I'm not positive about the last line)

you'd recognize it if you heard it

It reminded me of Coldplay, for some reason.

It might be one of those, I'll check. I love Last Goodbye by J Buckley, but I was just listening to that last nihgt and that's not it.

Oh, and I do hear the Last Goodbye in there, but that's not what I was thinking of.

Once I really know the lyrics I think this one will be even better. it's telling a really poigniant story

Well this was a weird merge.

Anyway, yeah there is definitely a Last Goodbye sound during the intro.

It wasn't either of the Crowded House songs that I was thinking of, although they're both really good(and songs I haven't heard in a long time), and I hear the resemblance between Weather with You and AR.

Thanks for the help though.

For some reason it reminded me of something off the Jackie Brown soundtrack! Bobby Womack maybe? I really like the groove.
