Name that tune...

Ridiculously specific question regarding Ladytron's just-finished US tour...

I saw two performances on this tour, and both times before the first song was played, the band had the venue play a certain old tune over the PA. I've heard it before, but for the life of me, I can't remember who/what it is.

It was very 60's/70's sounding... reminiscent of the Mamas and the Papas. Anybody know what it was?

Did you just not even try?

I don't know if this will help your search or not, but the term for this is usually "walk in" music. Good luck.

I emailed that contact addy in October, rhizome, and have still heard nothing back. Thank you for the snark, though!

Thanks for the search term, Ian A.T. - I tried that, too, though, and came up empty handed. =/

Was hoping somebody in the hive-mind had seen the show and recognized the song, perhaps.
