Name That Song

I need a hand, and I have very little information.

It's a rap song, but flowy. Something you'd listen to when stoned. In the background there are women singing harmony in french, but only every so often.

Thats about it.

Anyone know it?

Balon, this is a total shot in the dark, as I don't listen to rap.

Hyperception says there was a song by the Tom Tom Club called Genius of Love that had background female vocals that could have been French, maybe. He said he was never able to make out the words, and the lyrics I found online don't show any French words.

The song was remade by X-Ecutioners and was called Genius of Love 2002. Again, no French on the lyrics I found, but he thinks this may be what you are thinking of.

HTH.

~*~edit~*~

Hmm...

Apparently there was another song on the same album called Wordy Rappinghood that is showing French lyrics. Hyperception doesn't know it, but I thought I would include it as a possible alternative.

If all else fails, you could always try Shazam. It's uncannily accurate.

Nothing yet, though I do like most of the stuff you guys are posting! :D

I'm going to borrow the album tonight or tomorrow and see if I can scrounge some lyrics.

It's a bit of a long shot, but you could always try Song Tapper and tap in the tune.
