Help me identify this 90's song?

I can’t remember much. It was a simple serene song. I know nothing about music, unfortunately. I have a difficult time humming to Google what I hear in my head. It’s sung by a female.

When I say “something” I don’t know the words. It goes:

“Something something on a Saturday night”

Then it goes something like:

“What, what, what do you mean?”

That’s all I can say. I’m pretty sure the “Saturday night” part is accurate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe this will be helpful: https://www.lyrics.com/serp.php?st=saturday+night&dec=1990

Maybe the Spice Girls song on that page?

Whigfield - Saturday Night?

JFC, that’s fucking awful.

5

I know, and I’m kinda sorry for posting it, but it fits the OP. Those were the nineties…

6

That “She’s a Maniac” song from Flashdance starts with the line “Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night”

7

My first thought was of that song that goes “Sweet love something on a Saturday night”. It turns out that:

  1. I was thinking of “Whenever I Call You Friend”
  2. That’s not what they’re saying (“Sweet love flowing almost every night”)

In conclusion, I can’t help you.

Is this a pop song? Rock? Country?

Thanks to those who are trying. When I say “serene song”, I mean it was pretty simple and soothing.

10

I don’t know what genre it would fall under. :frowning:

Easy listening?

11

Would it fit in the same category as any of these…
Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion

Those are among the most popular female artist of the 90s.

12

No. I don’t think so.

Oh well. Thanks for trying.

I went to a party last Saturday night.
I didn’t get laid, I got in a fight, uh-huh!
It ain’t no big thing!

14

Well, 20 years earlier, Elton John thought Saturday Night was Alright for Fightin’

And I’ve always wondered this about that song: If his best friend floats in the bottom of a glass, is he on the surface or the bottom. Seems to me, if you floating, you on the surface, but if you on the bottom, you done sunk.

So, which is it Dwight?

15

Could it be Sheryl Crow?

I dropped acid on a Saturday night just to see what the fuss was about

16

No… that’s not a serene song. I’m talking lullaby/meditation music.

17

Double Crow. There’s also Leaving Las Vegas Pretty sure it’s not the answer, but I think it’s her best song. So why not enjoy?

Palm sweat, black jack on a Saturday night

18

Well, that’s kinda the problem. In pop music, Saturday night is no time for serenity.

:smiley:

It’s a simple, but good song: I still can’t even be sure she said “on a Saturday”. Not sure about the, “What, what, what do you mean,” part either. It could be “Come, come, come to me.”

I heard it before when I was in a noisy art class in Middle School, (it played on the radio when we worked,) or later in my life when it played on the speakers of a noisy grocery store I worked at. I hope to one day find it. It would really take me back.

Once again:

“Something something on a Saturday Night”
What, what, what do you mean?"

While reading this I was listening to Emotion by Destiny’s Child. I doubt it is the song but…
It’s early 2000’s. So, it’s 90’s-ish.
A serene song.
“Something something on a Saturday Night” - Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight.
“What, what, what do you mean?” - And where are you now.
It could be “Come, come, come to me". -
But if you don’t come back, Come home to me
