I thought of this forum first as you lot are very engaging and helpful. The only bits of info she gave me is that it's a non-English song (she couldn't tell more than that, like which language), dance/electronica'ish and the video features 3 women walking around Paris, she believes she hears the word "amour". I know it's not a lot of info. I scoured through the UK NOW tracklistings of that time but couldn't find any. Thanks!

More of it is coming back to me now - the three women singers standing near different monuments in Paris were singing about someone's tragic life. The guy n girl broke up, then the guy died n became an angel with dark wings n then something happened in the ending. Don't remember tht well. Maybe the dark angel became good. It'll come to me sometime hopefully”

Here to play, here to stay Pronouns: he/him Joined: 8 February 2015 Posts: 20,243 User: 21,587	Try asking her what sort of sound the song was, it might help narrow down the genre. Was it upbeat and dancey? Or was it an emotive ballad? The way you described it as similar to Edward Maya made me think it might be something played at clubs at the time, was it quite a commercially popular song and was it widely known to a UK audience which is generally what most of this forum would associate music from that era from? Every little helps.

French? yeah, I asked her and all she said was "it wasn't in English" and said it maybe French or Polish or E European (and I'm thinking wth - french sounds so different from the other mentioned languages)
