I was shopping at American Eagle and they played this video. It is definitely an alternative rock song…It starts out with some weird minor guitar chords, but it’s not in a minor key.

Part of the lyrics are like this: Love me…said you love me.

It’s probably fairly recent.

I hate when I miss the song title and lyrics at the corner of the screen. :rolleyes:

Is it [Love Fool](http://megalyrics.tripod.com/cardigans-love_fool.htm) by the Cardigans? That would sound like a roller skating song.

[“Lovefool”](http://www.metalvortex.com/romeoandjuliet/lovefool.htm) by the Cardigans, perhaps?

You can [listen](http://music.yahoo.com/ar-296329---The-Cardigans) to a clip of the song Lovefool on Yahoo Launch to verify if that is the song.

No…I know it’s not LoveFool…That has kind of a disco beat. The lead singer is kind of a scruffy alternative rock looking guy.

I’m resurrecting this old thread. The mystery is solved. The song is called “Love and Memories” by O.A.R.

This was the first time I posted for song help and nobody knew…probably I didn’t describe it very well.

I think I finally got the answer - it’s “Love and Memories” by O.A.R… Oh, nevermind.
