On my way to work I sometimes listen to the Wall Street Journal This Morning. It’s not the best show but it’s the show that’s on. Between segments they’ll often play a short bit of a song and there is one they do every couple weeks that I _know_ I know, but I can’t place it. They don’t ever play the lyric part or mention who it is, and I’m going nuts trying to figure out what song this is.

I uploaded a quick and terrible [Tindeck MP3](http://tindeck.com/listen/ptgz) that’s pretty close to the tune if not the sound, anybody know the name of this song before I go completely out of my mind?
