What song is this?
« on: 26 Nov 2006, 08:33 pm »
Recently, I visited two audiophiles (on separate occassions), and coincidentally, both used the same track of music as one of the pieces they demoed their system with.  I had heard this track once before a few years ago, but on each occassion, somehow I ended up forgetting to ask what the track was and who sang it.

The track starts with sounds of some children playing in a playground.  A saxophone starts playing, and eventually it is a track with a great female vocal on it.  To me, it sounded like a cross between Jennifer Warnes and Patricia Barber.  Sound familiar to anyone?

Yeah, and then it's a guitar (not a saxophone)... :scratch:

I should also mention that it's not an up-tempo song, either...
