What's this song? 80s pop-ish sounding, female vocalist

July 18, 2016 7:53 PM

A tune popped into my head and it's driving me nuts. I'm pretty sure this is a relatively accurate hum. If I remember correctly, it was a female vocalist and sounded vaguely like 80s pop. Kind of Cyndi Lauper-ish? Help! SOS!

I think the "da da da" ennunciation is misleading you all into Tom's Diner. The tune she hums in this recording is nothing like that.

That's really not "Tom's Diner."

Were you hanging out by the pool earlier?

Response by poster: Actually planned to go swimming today, but didn't get to. Maybe that's why? Thanks, lefty, I can sleep easy now.
