What's that soft rock song with the soaring sax melody?

CHOUT · 04.05.2008, 04:06 AM

its on the Soft Rock infomercial featuring Air Supply.

I know the song but don't know the title or who does it...i dont think they ever credit it when the songs scroll down.

I dunno, it's got a fucking soaring sax melody...

"deewnt deewnt duh nuh dew ney new..."

I know it's not Kenny G.

Anybody?

Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street?

This Is Not Here · 04.05.2008, 04:14 AM

L.A. Blues by The Stooges? No wait, maybe not...

But seriously, Baker Street by Gerry Refferty?

CHOUT · 04.05.2008, 04:24 AM

oh yeah, you got it!
i can't believe in all the times i've hear it i had no idea who it was or what it was called.

i scoped out some ambrosia and robbie dupree while i awaited an answer.

wait...i didn't even know this song had vocals!...haha.

avantgarde1 · 04.05.2008, 01:41 PM

i dont' know what it's called, but i'm almost positive you shouldn't be listening to it.

CHOUT · 04.05.2008, 03:00 PM

oh yeah, i should be...

avantgarde1 · 04.05.2008, 04:29 PM

oh no... you should not be... unless you like stuff like loggins & messina and kenny g. oh! i bet you like michael bolton!

CHOUT · 04.06.2008, 12:38 AM

no, i don't like michael bolton.

but I listened to that song a few times today and realized i like the rest of the song more than the sax part.

Cantankerous · 04.06.2008, 12:55 AM

ohhh man. soft rock.

blech.

MellySingsDoom · 04.06.2008, 06:27 AM

Here's a picture of our man G Rafferty in a natty beard 'n' comfy jumper combination:

Let us not forget that Gerry was also responsible for "Stuck In The Middle With You".

thewall91 · 04.06.2008, 08:51 AM

Gerry Rafferty rules - Right Down the Line was another great tune.

While we're at soft rock sax trivia, am I correct that other song by Chuck Mangione that was sampled in the Biggie Smalls song called "Feels so Good"? Or is it called something else?

Weird thing is I knew exactly what song was being referred to, but would have never been able to come up with the title.

I think I remember the radio guy saying the name of the song once, and I intended to download it before I forgot... but I forgot.

I'll probably forget by the next time I hear it anyways.

GrungeMonkey · 04.08.2008, 04:03 PM

i can only think of gerry rafferty baker street, surely it must be that?

CHOUT · 04.08.2008, 08:56 PM

as stated above...Baker Street was the correct song.
