Songs You Never Thought You'd Find....

Ever have any songs that you heard back in the day and then you go looking for them on the net and can't find..

and then you discover that someone on Youtube has actually posted a clip?

So far I have found:-

Midnight In Moscow:- hadn't heard it for years

A song from Pablo Cruise's "Out of Our Hands" album....the song I was looking for I hadn't heard for 15 years. (Another World)

"Wasn't It You Babe".....by Petula Clark circa mid 60's.......had not heard this song for 35 years......
 
There is a song that plays in the movie Empire Records while all the employees are cleaning and I haven't been able to figure it out in years. For some reason they didn't put it on the Soundtrack.
 
Yeah; "My Jo-Ann" by the Troggs. Ridiculously simple; probably done to mock all the other over-blown stuff being done at the time, like the Moody Blues being accompanied by a symphony orchestra. It's just a bass and a Jew's-harp, and the lyrics are:
"A boy's not a boy/
And a man's not a man/
Till he's been with a girl/
Like my Jo-Ann".
Then repeat about 10 times. It's pretty stupid, but, like a mantra, also kind of hard to get out of your mind. And, as of 10 minutes ago, still no youtube clip. :D
