HALLOO AND WELCOME YELLOWJACKETS FANS, TERE PYAAR MAIN FANS , TODD IN THE SHADOWS FANS, DUA LIPA FANS AND FEAR STREET FANS! :-D
This is the official music video for White Town’s 1997 global hit ‘Your Woman’.
IT'S NOT STAR WARS!!! In the '90s, I bought the CD soundtrack for Dennis Potter's 'Pennies From Heaven' and on it was an amazing 1932 song called 'My Woman,' by Lew Stone And The Monseigneur Band, vocal by Al Bowlly. (This itself was a cover of the original by none other than Bing Crosby!) And that song started with a beautiful trumpet hook...
My track was the first to sample that catchy hook and it's now been sampled by Dua Lipa in her new track “Love Again”.
‘Your Woman’ reached number 1 in the charts in the UK, Spain and Iceland, and was Top 10 in 12 other countries as well as reaching number 23 in the US Billboard chart.
Lyrics:
just tell me what you’ve got to say to me,
i’ve been waiting for so long to hear the truth,
it comes as no surprise at all you see,
so cut the crap and tell me that we’re through.
now i know your heart, i know your mind,
you don’t even know you’re being unkind,
so much for all your highbrow marxist ways,
just use me up and then you walk away,
boy you can’t play me that way.
well i guess what you say is true,
i could never be the right kind of girl for you,
i could never be your woman.
when i saw my best friend yesterday,
she said she never liked you from the start,
well me, i wish that i could claim the same,
but you always knew you held my heart.
and you’re such a charming handsome man,
now i think i finally understand,
is it in your genes?, i don’t know,
but i’ll soon find out, that’s for sure,
why did you play me this way?
well i guess what you say is true,
i could never be the right kind of girl for you,
i could never be your woman.
well i guess what they say is true,
i could never spend my life with a man like you,
i could never be your woman.

Heard this song a million times when I was in college. Thank you!
Yes great song and video.
I wonder who made and directed the video? It complements the music so well, the expressions and movements. Combined it's a work of art & a lesson in life
@@freesaxon6835 The video was directed by Mark Adcock. He shot it on 16mm Bolex which is why it looks so gorgeous.
@@JyotiMishra Well thanks for that reply 😁 👍🏻 I am chuffed ! It is a work of art / musical combination 🎵🎶🎼
It's already 17 years ago 😢 Iwas 17 years old now I'm 34 years old what a masterpiece song ❤
The most Gorillaz song that the Gorillaz never wrote
I was thinking the same thing hahaha 😅
whole my life is a big lie! I thought the same. no, I knew that!
Agree
Best comment ever😁
Brooo facts
Who's listening in 2024?
That would be me 😊

I've never gotten tired of this song. 90s music was *chef's kiss*

laughs in 1932.

I went looking for this. Forgot about this gem.
I've loved this tune since the first time I heard it in the 90's... Forever a classic , never get tired of listening to this jam.
WHO R WHITETOWN
For real
The trumpet intro is really timeless
Agree 100%
@@user-zy3jc7nm7h
It's an Al Bowlly song from c. 1932, My Woman
One of the few timeless songs. This could come out tomorrow and be a hit again.
So right.
True... I thought it was from Gorillaz maybe because of the very similar voice and since the first time I heard it was when I was a child, I had no idea who the ones who did it really were. Even in the comments section someone said that it is a Gorillaz song more than the Gorillaz themselves.
Jend - Forever; has it sampled and its a hit
Yup, was just going to post that this aged very well.
So true!!!
That feeling you get when you re-discover a song from your teenaged years you'd completely forgotten existed and actually liked.
RicoLen1 yup I was 13 when this came out, recently heard it on a 90s radio station and that's what brought me here!
That moment ♥️

I was 15 when it came out😊👍
Maybe the same thing will happen to me 10 or 20 years from now.
totally man, I have been hunting these songs now that I'm 33yo.
Who's listening to this in 2024?
I'll be listening in 2056😂 song is goated

I was 26 when I first heard this infectious tune! 🤩 Now at '53'.. I'm like where did the 27 years go?!?! It feels the same just like when it first hit my ears back in '97! 🥰 Thank You JM for this Timeless Masterpiece! 😍
You will be 80 soon!
Hurry up!
I was 20 still love this song 77 baby 😂
So many kids born in the 2000’s will be vibing to Dua Lipa not knowing this song even exists. I hope when they do find this song it brings them as much joy as it did for us 80’s and 90’s babies. ❤️
Edit: To the people commenting “it’s a sample from the 1930’s” - Thanks for the history lesson.
as a 2006 baby i feel sorry for others 15 y.o that only listen to rap and will never know what real music was
I'm 17 and I found this only because the comments on dua's pointed out it was a sample from this. So I'm basically enjoying both songs.
Right 😄
I told my son
"hey that beat is from this cool song"
The punk said
"oh it's old"
🤣🤣Silly boy, just doesn't understand that my "old days" is y this new great musicians r great now 🤭😁😁😁😎❤️
maybe the elders who heard this song in the when it came out said "these 90s kids wont even know Al Bowlly"
@@yaniracabrera9358 it's okay, I got my 9 year old jamming to hall and oats, my 12 year old niece prefers older music.
Sounds futuristic for the year 1997.
Unique distinctive production
everything in 97 sounded futuristic
you think you just fell from a coconut tree? lol
I think that in '97 every pop song sounded the same, production wise.
it was, I remember this song that wasn't very unique, but I used to like it, even when it wasn't the kind of music I used to listen
1996
The way it switches rhyme schemes is amazing. It’s so rare nowadays, which is unfortunate.
To think this was messages left on his phone by an ex.

I work at H&M and this song will play every now and then, always a treat to hear. Especially compared to the other mind-numbing songs they constantly play there. Thanks for making this song.
Haha, glad I can be of some small relief! :-)

@@Apxaypa Спасибо за комплименты, и я рад, что вам нравится моя песня!
I’m also an H&M employee who has been searching for this song!!! I literally thought it was gorillaz haha
The mind-numbing H&M music is the realest thing ever. I despised working there for that sole reason.
I remember this listening to this song on the radio when I was preparing to go to school in 1997. This feels so nostalgic
Glad it takes you back!
I told my boyfriend today exactly the same story 😆
Me too bro, I first heard it andwatched it on rage early morning, and that was before 1997 bruz!!

yep the 90s were amazing. I would do anything to go back!
U should call Marty McFly
Not really. No. And I don't feel like saying why.

and they then took it all away.
It's a sample from the 30s!
Look up Al Bowlly Lew Stone Monseigneur Band My Woman 1932.

Gawd I was 19 when this came out - now 45! My 11-year-old son was playing Love Again by Dua Lipa earlier today, so had to look this up... The incredible thing is both Love Again and Your Woman are based on a sample of Lew Stone and Al Bowlly's 1932 recording "My Woman" - which was one of my late grandma's favourite songs! Such a timeless piece of music that has entertained and enamoured several generations of my family - I like the Dua Lipa song too, and really like White Town, but LOVE the original Stone / Bowlly song! Just shows that truly great music always stands the test of time, and that music has no expiry date or age limit😮
I heard this song at a Goodwill store.
I was probably about 11 or 12. Always loved this song
This was out in 1997, if you were 19 in 1997 you would be about 41 now. Are your dates correct?
@trebordraw123 I was 19 in 1997... 1997 was 27 years ago... 19 + 27 = 46 (my age at time of writing this comment, as I've had a birthday since I wrote the original comment last December), not 41... If I was 41 now, I would have been 14 in 1997... Its your maths that's out, not my age
1997: Nostalgia
2020: Nostalgia

This is one of the most 90’s songs from the 90’s. We will never have music like this again. Thanks for keeping it alive
Except... it’s... not... from the 90s. It’s a complete ripoff.
I agree to an extent but here it is 2021 and every note and every phrase is hitting my heart and my mind the same exact way it did back than.
We did it better man. They just don't know.

A masterpiece. Human relationships summarised in four minutes. It evokes perfectly the feelings of desperation and impending doom of being in love with a partner who doesn’t feel the same way. Some sort of tragedy is inevitable. Nice to see her be the one to survive and get her heart back. Many don’t.. :(
Thank you for your thoughtful, measured comment. Sadly a rarity in the YT comment 'verse!
Prime example of Narcissism and Codependency.
@@garrimic3 the commenter or the the track meaning?
franklingoodwin ... video and track.... The man uses the woman yet has a side dish.
The woman is in deep love/need for the man. Yet only that one man
The man is the narcissist
The woman is the codependent
Im workin on getting mine back. Bittersweet
Absolute time capsule this track. Watching mtv before school with this gem on. Guy made it in his bedroom and sampled a piece from
1932. Absolute magic.
This is still one of the best songs ever. Merry Xmas 2023 to everyone still listening
I just realized that the uploader is the artist himself (mind = blown). This is one of the greatest songs ever!
When I uploaded it originally, 2006, EMI didn't care about TH-cam. They they uploaded their own version and blocked mine for YEARS. Then they deleted theirs ~ major labels, eh?
Jyoti, what's the history of White Town? Is it just you? What song did you sample here? (It sounds so 1920s)
www.whitetown.co.uk/faq/
Yep! I'll never forget this song! One of the best ones EVER for sure!!!
Jyoti Mishra ay im the 2.000 th sup Lol
Shout out to Todd In The Shadows for reminding me of this terrific song. And thank you, Jyoti, for giving us a work that both harkens back to the past and is before it's time.
EEEEEY I knew i'd find a Todd viewer here hahaha i came here after the video as fast as i could hahha
god what a bop thanks todd
this was one of those songs id hear on the radio but knew nothing about, even the name. im actually very glad to now know story behind the song. the journey of this hit before and after would make for a great movie.
first time I've ever actively sought out the song after a One Hit Wonderland video. This song and Jyoti both rule so much.
honestly first time I'd heard of it, decided to pop over here to at least listen to the song before I heard the review.
I don’t care what flash in the pan “artist” samples this song. White Town nailed this and will forever be relevant.
sorry to break it to ya, but many people don't know White Town anymore, and even if they did, Dua Lipa has had far more popular songs
I haven't heard this song in 20 years then woke up with it stuck in my head today
I had a lot of comments that the audio was too low so I re-mastered it AND the vid is now in the right aspect ratio, not squished. Enjoy!!
Thank you !!👍😀
Shente mone poli ♥️♥️ even after 20 years it's like... something special. Thanks brother ♥️♥️
Jyoti Mishra love your music Jyoti :)
Thanks
Jyoti you are my idol a total inspiration WE Love YOU!
The fact that they sampled a song from the 1930s makes this one of the most innovative sampled songs of all-time
Which song in the 1930s?
Wow never knew this

Can anyone tell me from where I can download this video song
@@venkateshakula1477 tbm quero!!
I remember listening to this on the radio for the first time back in 1997. Went out next day and bought the single. Still listening to this day. Brilliant song and video
I was 7-8 when this came out. Now I'm 34 & listening to this takes me back to the sunny summer haze of my childhood, when everything was so much simpler. Anthem.
this song is never getting old it has a futuristic sound
Thank you!
Futuristic Nostalgia 🙃
reminds me Gorillaz
Futuristic but also a bit 1920s
Steampunk song
I finally found it! I had this beat stuck in my head since I heard it in the 90s. After so many years I finally found it and it’s just as amazing as I remembered it.
Yessss 😃😃😃
Me too!!
My sons love it now🤣👍🏻
The tune at the start is originally from Al Bowlly My Woman!
finally find it today. Now im adult
I remember not being a fan of this song when it first started blowing up. Couldn't tell you why, judgemental youth or something. But wow has it really grown on me over the years! I had no idea until I watched the Todd in the Shadows video that it was just 1 incredibly talented guy who was now reluctantly in the spotlight. Keep being awesome Jyoti!
Thank you for your comment, it's very sweet of you to put that! :-D
This is the best version.... by far. 90's was the last great decade.
C'est vrai qu'aujourd'hui c'est tellement " pauvre " .. ce que l'on entend ! .. presque aucune créativité ! .
90 's.. 👍
This song has not aged at all. It could come out now and be streamed millions of times. The hook has always been killer. Love it

Can anyone tell me from where I can download this video song
Girl same age... senior year right!?
This song is just on another level. So simple, but so very clever at the same time.
It still sounds as fresh today in 2023 as it did back in 1997, nothing sounded like it before or after.

Love this song! The fact you made such a catchy global hit (and UK no 1) in your bedroom is brilliant!
Seriously - if anyone made a film of the whole thing, NO-ONE would believe it. It was a fucking rollercoaster of madness.
You asked for it, you got it... Finally, 'Your Woman' with HD video! Enjoy! :-D
I love this song since the first time i heard what was 14 years and there's no change i still love it
Hey thanks a lot for the HD version! I thought I was tripping out first because I always thought that the video was in 240p. However, the sound volume went down in this HD version. It would great if you can increase the sound volume for the video! I play it in max and it is still not enough.
Oh no but it's not possible is it you? you are THE singer of the clip.
Well then you know I am 34 years old. I am from February 2, 1986 and when your song was released at the time I was very young I must have been 4 or 5 years old to break it all. once i remember i asked my mom (tell me why is she running the lady?)
and she said to me (for nothing my son you will have all the time to know its.)
Anyway it was another era.
What has become of the actors and actresses of the clip ? besides you have heard from them since time?
Jyoti Mishra thanks so much! I love this song so much!!!
Possibly the greatest one hit wonder ever written and one of the best 90s tracks ever written .. the bass at 3:13 is just absolutely stinkin, the audacity to use a bass synth like that is incredible, such an anthem for all generations 😎
Hey, thanks for the compliment! The bass sound is actually an Emax II sampler - it's a sample of my Moog Rogue. :-)
And how about the Android old game sound!🥰
@@JyotiMishra Neat. I always wondered and I used to speculate (along with someone I talked to at the office at the time the song was a hit) as to whether the bass could have been a tuba. The roughness in tone quality sounded a little like a beginning tuba player or come to think of it even expert tuba players have that rough sound on low notes. It is a perfect counterpart to the trumpet, symmetry in brass, even if it was not an actual tuba.
@@JyotiMishra what did you do the drums on? they've got a nice feel like the samples weren't chopped that tightly so the kick drags a bit. mpc? curious what you sequenced the song on too? also as everyone say's great song, and embedded in my mind forever. different then, and different now, and all the better for it.
@@samsicles_jr The samples weren't chopped at all - just two loops, on top of each other, on an Emax II. More info here -> whitetown.co.uk/faq/
Siempre es bueno escuchar esta canción!!! Que bueno que existe!!!! Sobretodo escucharla mientras manejo o descanso!!!!
Just had to show my son that this has been sampled by Dua Lipa for 'Love Again' as we were watching Glasto 24. This came out the year he was born.
This is a song I NEVER get tired of listening to. I would describe its vibe as menacing, exhilarating, hauntingly beautiful. It is beautiful artistry that stirs up deep emotions from within me. This is a song that was way ahead of its time and sounds just as fresh and modern today as it did when it was released in 1997. Absolutely brilliant.
Thank you, @user-xk6kb6ge5u! :-D

Such an underrated gem! One of the many in the 90s. I could never be a woman, either.

Laurie Beth H True, the lyric does say your, but I believe one could broaden the song to being a woman in general.
It's not a woman it's your woman
Scottish Thistle Yes, yes I know, but I believe one can broaden the song's meaning to being a woman in general.
KillerFrank lol well you could do that with any song, but that still doesn't mean that it has any meaning beyond what is written
Whenever I hear this in NYC Classic Rock station 104.3, I'll turn the volume wayyyy up, never gets old, great music and lyrics.
I think people don’t give enough credit to the clip. I know the music is absolutely mind blowing (I’ve been listening to it non stop for days) but the storytelling my goodness! So simple yet so sophisticated and symbolical. It’s amazing! Good job to whoever came with this idea! 👏🏾
A true gem for the eyes. Feels nice to have a song that makes you enjoy every aspect of it!
I knew Marxism did not sit well with my spirit 🙂 They will answer to their Creator about the lionisation of the indiscreet woman. No one is exempt or above the Sacred Laws of our Creator. Retribution will be served and I advise people to get right with Jesus and the Most High in good time 🙂
I've always admired the resentful, regretful tone he sings in. He strikes a great balance between sounding "over it" yet still hurt and vulnerable. Very relatable and honestly my favorite aspect of the song.
I never understood why a man is saying "I could never be your woman." I always assumed it was just a deep voiced woman.

This is so iconic I can’t believe you updated your description to welcome fans of One Hit Wonderland! You have a finger on the pulse when it comes to this, which makes sense seeing how much your style and process came to influence modern music production and internet music. From one music loving Indian to another I commend you!

Agreed. Especially at 0:53 seconds, that guitar sound was ahead of it's time.

@comrade-in- comment-section Al Bowlly is who my woman is by.
Yes, 90s let's goo
Love it , came out on radio when i was about 37 , think it was found by kid jensen , i was driving delivery lorries in Wiltshire area , im 65 now , still love it 🙂👍
Close, mate, it was Mark Radcliffe!
Nobody can imagine for how many years I have been searching this song...I always remembered the ending of the video and that repeating sounds in the back but I was never able to put my finger on the song 😭 finally finding it I’m happy
Awwwww!
Searched for years..now they remixing it..insanity
a timeless gem, sounds a fresh now as it did 20 years ago
one of the most extraordinary tracks of his era. has changed a lot for me. in many things. thank you jyoti ♥
Ahh, thank you!
Even after 17 years this song is fire 🔥🔥
I first released it in 1996, btw... :-P
I lived in Switzerland in 1997, this song was everywhere, more than Oasis, Puff Daddy or The Verve
Some songs have the ability to capture a moment in time so that whenever you listen to it your immediately sent back there, this is one of them. Fantastic song 🎵
Sends me right back
You said it brother
Used to come on RAGE back in the day! Saturday morning, Coco pops, Sega Master System, good times!
Between this and Bitter Sweet Symphony...takes me right back to being a kid in the mid 90's
Doesn’t it ever
This song right here my god........as soon as i hear that "horn?" It instantly takes me back to my childhood watching mtv and seeing this for the first time.
this is a all time fav song for me. this song had to be the inspiration for Gorrilaz to make music. I hope this never dies!
Me too, I need the money!
*IT'S NOT STAR WARS!!!* In the '90s, I bought the CD soundtrack for Dennis Potter's 'Pennies From Heaven' and on it was an amazing 1932 song called 'My Woman,' by Lew Stone And The Monseigneur Band, vocal by Al Bowlly. (This itself was a cover of the original by none other than Bing Crosby!) And that song started with a beautiful trumpet hook...
amazing music man, enjoy your success
I am here through Dua Lipa and I (re)discover your song, it is fantastic !!! 15 years ... time flies by, great music stays !!!
Thank you for this song..97 the weather was hot, I was at University in Canterbury Rngalnd and dating a lovely girl called Joanne . Your song was constantly on the radio and we could never get too much of it .
Great track then great now and so wonderful to hear it hitting new younger ears as a sample itself .
Thank you again and ALL the best to you
Where can I find the vinyl!!! ;)
What a fantastic song. I listen to it over and over again and it never gets old.
This song samples “My Woman” by Al Bowlly, which is from the 1930s!
And Dua Lipa’s song “Love Again” samples both this and that song!
Thanks!!! I knew i was heard that song somewhere haha who knows
This is what Future Nostalgia means
White Town rather is inspired by My Woman and created much broader in deeper rif on guitar
Eso no lo sabía, gracias
but dua lipa's song has cheaply used this sample. I was like: really? but thanks anyway because i can come listen to this amazing song again
I've been a fan of this song (and by extension, Mr. Mishra) since I was a teenager in the 90s. Now that I'm a musician working out of my house, it's music like this that makes me understand just how much can be done with music and how important it is to never stop pulling sounds in new directions. Beyond that, this video -- particularly the moment where the protagonist comes to the realization that she doesn't need a man to be happy -- gives me chills every single time I watch it. I'm so happy that it's gotten the respect it deserves over the years.
An absolutely classic song. One of the best instrumentals I’ve ever heard too. It’s timeless. It sounds just as good now as it did back then.
Love the video too. This is one of those creations where everything just came together perfectly.
What a tune, I remember this growing up in the 90's
Still a classic to this day!
Nostalgia at it's best
Indeed 💯👍and me too buddy me too
Agree...
@@butterfly200585 I remember taping songs off the radio , top 40 on a Sunday night. That's cool Ur son likes this song aswell. 😀👍
Rick Dee's top 40
@@JRP80820Did it reach #1?
You were quoted as saying "I would rather be a one-hit wonder than a no-hit wonder". And the fact you are responding to posts shows how down-to-earth you are. And of course thanks for this absolute gem of a song! Enjoying from Toronto, Canada :)
To have *any* success as a musician is an amazing thing - I'm very happy that people still love this song, 25 years later. :-)
@@JyotiMishra Thank you for the response and congratulations on the success. Prediction: people will still be enjoying this song 25 years from today!
@@JyotiMishra yo amo esta canción. Muy sonada en los 90's y ahora la encuentro por casualidad me hace revivir aquella época. Saludos desde Monterrey ❤️
Jyoti Mishra is an amazing musician and a stellar person. Please check out his other music if you haven't!
@@JyotiMishra This song is timeless. This song will always be in heavy rotation.
The Imperial March subtly becomes a pop song. Awesome!
i have my alarm set to have random music wake me up in the morning, and this song was the one that played today. i have now listened to it at least 10 times since i woke up. thank you mr mishra for this song. love from the us
Totally an oldie but goodie tune, I still like this song today.
Me too! :-P
this song never get old
www.whitetown.co.uk/faq/
Ta! :-D
It'll be a classic tune forever (people will still be asking the same question's forever) you're one talented son of a gun!
Why is no one talking about how it’s 14 years olddd like this is pure magic!!!
Well, the song itself is from 1997... :-)
@@JyotiMishra this song could have come out in 2020, This is timeless and the Edge 102.1 in Toronto keeps playing it. I love the sample at 3:11
@@dangrcat Thank you! That's not a sample at 3.11 ~ that's my little Casio VL-1! As also used by Kraftwerk, The Human League and Trio! :-)
It's 23 years old.
Ooooh it’s 23 huh, WAYYY MORE AWESOME
I was in Red Lobster tonight and this song came on the radio 😂 I hadn’t heard this song in years. I added the song to my Spotify playlist and then came here to watch the music video.
This track still smashes it 26 years later. Which is good as '97 was a blur.
hahhaha
@@JyotiMishra Surprise acknowledgement from the great man himself, haha brilliant, that made me smile, fair play. Peace, my bro.
So ahead of its time.
Hell yeah. This song ROCKS. It's still jamming to this day. Definetely a party jam. It will ROCK the house
For sure. It was modern trance before modern trance happened.
I would say it kicked off a genre- ma be re-started it- started with Puttin on the Ritz in the 80’s
indeed and amazingly this song was created entirely on an old ATARI ST pc
That little computer has given the world some great tunes.
70s, 90s and early 2000s was the era of legendary musics
You wrote an amazing song, with one of the best hooks ever. I remember hearing this song in the car when I was just a little kid. I'm an adult now, with my own kid, and my daughter listens to this song now. Thank you for creating such a classic piece of music.
Thank you, Adam Martin! That's very kind of you to say. :-D
@@JyotiMishra
Excusme, ..this music is british??
That sweet hook is from Pennies from Heaven.
I have been listening to this song on and off since released, always perfect. Classic. The way the riff changes👍🏻🇮🇪☘
Seeing this video on TV in 1997 as a teenager and realising it was shot in your hometown, blew my mind back in the day. Great nostalgic song and video. Derby Legend!
Jyoti, thank you for being an important part of my formative musical discovery years. I remember the first time i heard this song when i was 11 in 97' on the radio on my way back from night skiing. It was so different to anything else i had heard. It was one of the first songs i burned onto a cd of music i got off Napster , sorry! Loved it then, love it now..
Thank you!
I'm totally fine with people copying and sharing my music as long as they don't charge people for it - if they do, then where's my cut, haha? Please check out my new album on my Bandcamp if you have time -> whitetown.bandcamp.com/album/car-park-love-songs
Truely, a song that would of been a hit at any point in the last 20 years. It's a song that feels like it was years ahead of it's time. It's a song I've heard many times, though i never knew it was made by one guy until Todd did his episode on it. Just gains even more respect from me. A true classic that will never get old.
Woaah, thank you! :-D
Check Dua Lipa's "love again" last month
@@marcvalens407 I heard it, it cannot compare to this masterpiece. The only interesting part of her version is the trumpet part. But Your Woman is all over amazing - the song itself, the lyrics, the awesome music video. 😍
For sure ahead of its time. Loved it then and now. Such a groove and the breaks. Still modern.
It's even more ahead of its time than being written in the 90s. Even this song is a sample. The original "My Woman" was written in 1932.
Ain’t heard this jam in years. Thanks Fear Street.
thanks to rl stine
This tune was so ahead of its time when it came out that it took me years to appreciate & start loving it
Finally, I found it!
I've first listened to this song on Radio Universo on February 10, but after a few minutes, I forgot about it..
