What is the name of the Group/Artist? The song begins…If I knew then or it might have been I wish I knew then. The singer sounds a little bit like Rod Stewart but its not him. The song came out in 2000 or 2001.

Thanks

I researched(record stores and internet) and there is no song crediting rod stewart with that song. But I heard two or three month ago and thought it was his but it isn’t.

Therefore it must be credited to someone else.

But who???
