Trying to find the song lead me to some deep and dark corners of the internet.
May or may not be a new song, certainly isn't mainstream or popular 😜

Still searching.

Is it old or new?

I can only guess that it is new. Reasons being is my gut instinct that is was recorded after the year 2000 (you know how you hear something that sounds modern and would be very surprised if you found it was 20-30 years old?) and also the fact Justice's 'DANCE' song was playing right before.

For the record, I think Pitchfork will name that as their #1 song of the year 🤣

If it isn't Dam-Funk's 'I Don't Wanna Be A Star' then I will lose what little faith in humanity I have left. It's so far and away the best single released this year that I feel sorry for everyone else making music right now. Objectively (not really).

If they do then all of the hipsters will mindlessly agree with Pitchfork and will get her album to the top 100 on BEA.

What with all your lobbying for this song, I finally got down to listening to it right now. And, well...

That chorus is amazing.

I just wish the bleeps in the background were played by a funk guitar riff, it would be perfect. Otherwise it's unbeatable, and horrendously catchy. Damn.

Please Necharsian 🙁 I might never hear the song again. The more I think about this more I'm searching.

You know a lot about 2010's (I am assuming it is new) twee female vocalists. Is there nothing else the comes to mind?

Nope, doesn't seem to be it.

Couldn't find the Tyler Perry "Oh Carrie" song either.

I could have googled this myself if I had remembered the chorus. I made a mental note in the shop but forgot it later. All I have left doesn't give the answer on the search engines.

Perhaps I should start from the begining? I heard this song I really liked in the record shop. I was too busy listening to write anything down and subsequently don't know the who it was by. 🫢

I'm looking for an artist with a soft female vocalist. Perhaps Regina Spektor, Kate Nash, Ladyhawke, Fiona Apple, Laura Marling sort, not sure if that is much help as all of them are different. Like a flickering voice. One that you would more expect to whisper a power ballad than belt it out?

The actual song: What I remember from the first verse is that it was singing about a girl who wanted to have a baby someday. A line that has stuck with me was "And her name is... Carrie". I think that is the name but there was a definitate pause. I think the chorus was about getting to know the girl and not judging her or something. I think the chorus was addressing a guy as well.

Well that is all I have. Thank you to anyone who has any idea of the song :)

It's called "Manic Street Preachers Suck" by The Outlaws.
