I am desperately in need of musical assistance. I was in the cafeteria and a song came on the intercom and unfortunately I don’t know the song’s name. But one of my lady-friends loves the song and I want to buy the CD for her. So let’s play a little game of “Name That Tune.”

1. One of the repeated phrases in the song is something like “we could be together” or “we could stay together,” which is enunciated like “we could beeeeee togettthhher.”
2. It’s sung by a fairly young woman. Probably 20-30.
3. It sounded pretty poppish.
4. The melody was a little bit sad and haunting but not really gloomy, if that makes sense at all.

I would be immensely grateful for your help in this most masculine of pursuits. Please e-mail me at superheronation@gmail.com if you have any ideas what song that was.
