Here 'goes… A fairly new (last 6 mos.)song that sounds like funk/hip-hop, has heavy keyboards and ends with the lyrics, “…that ain’t right”, or, “…it ain’t right”, repeatedly. Buying the disc is no longer the issue. At this point, I just want to know who it is. I e-mailed the radio station with day/time information about when I heard the song, but, no response. Message Board, don’t let me down. ---

All I found on Google that looked promising was this from Duncan Shiek: [http://www.letssingit.com/lyrics/s/sheik-duncan/4.html](http://www.letssingit.com/lyrics/s/sheik-duncan/4.html) ---

Well, if you have one of those radios with a built in tape player/recorder, then maybe next time you hear it you could tape it and then record it into a wav file, so we could hear it. This also assumes that you have a microphone on your computer, and that you hear this song again. Likely? No, but I tried…really I did! ---

For what it’s worth, I found out the information i needed after hearing the song once again on the radio today… name is St. Germaine, a french dj who turned a john lee hooker song into something else. I can now sleep at night. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by upperdeckfan \* > \*\*not much of a video viewer here, but the song really caught my ear…mmmmpita \*\* I’ve only ever heard it with the video (on the monitors at the club). Actually, the video is quite well-done…computer graphics (either that or “Wallace & Grommit” type animation, can’t remember exactly)…and engaging…so much so that I can’t even really remember how the song itself goes but I can see the video perfectly. jayjay
