Default Help me find the name of this song.

Okay this song is in some of the little promo spots on MTV for the next season of Newlyweds. It goes like,

"How can heaven hold a place for me,
When a girl like you has cast a spell on me?"

It's kinda funky sounding with a strings arrangement plus the usual rock instruments. I think it was a sort of popular song back around I dunno, '96 or '97 when that guy Edwin somethin or other had a similar sounding song, "Never Met A Girl Like You Before" which was also out at the same time.

Oh help me lawd!

Space---Female Of The Species (Fembot Mix)

A thousand thundering thrills await me
Facing insurmountable odds greatly
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.

Shock shock horror horror, shock shock horror!
I'll shout myself hoarse for your supernatural force!
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.

Oh, she deals in witchcraft and
One kiss and I'm zapped. Oh,
How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?

Frankenstein and Dracula have nothing on you
Jekyll and Hyde join the back of the queue
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.

For she wants to conquer the world completely
But first she'll conquer me discreetly
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.

Oh, she deals in witchcraft and
One kiss and I'm zapped. Oh,
How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?

Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?

Oh, so speaking of that Edwin guy, anyone remember his last name?

And while we're at it there was that song that was sung by some dude and the chorus was like, "I could never be your woman" it was kinda funky electronic synthesizer type stuff. Any ideas?

Yeah I'm in some kind of a mood for 1997 vintage stupid electro pop.

Edwin McCain? :dunno:

Also,

Your Woman
White Town

-Lead vocals: Jyoti Mishra
-Peaked at #23 in 1997
-From the album "Women In Technology"

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 bein' 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

CHORUS:

I could never be your woman
I could never be your woman
I could never be your woman
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

(CHORUS)

Well I guess what they say is true
I could never spend my life with a man like you

(CHORUS)

From: "David Hayman"

Maybe it's Edwin McCain, for some reason I'm thinking Edwin Collins but I don't even know if that's a real person. Good call on the White Town one.
