There is (was?) an add on TV (in Israel), whose musical lyrics consisted primarily of "I've been <verb>ing", along the stanzas. They run through several verbs (e.g. "I've been watching, I've been living, etc). At the of a 'line' (I guess that's the right term), they have anothr phrase starting with 'for', then another two obscure word.

I know that the verbs had waiting, living, and I think searching and maybe watching.

Moreover, I think it's a variant of a love song.

MetroLyrics didn't find me stuff.

Did anyone get what I just said?

P.S. Sorry for very occasional posting, but I'm very, very busy at these times. School, etc.

It would probably be easy to find the title of the song if you knew what the ad was for. I've found lots of songs by searching for "song from the new VW bug commercial" or something. [Smile]

Either "HOT Drama" or "HOT Action". Both are channels for films, genre redundant, and I think it was for the latter. It had a lot of fire in the ad.

Huey Lewis "Dou You Believe in Love?"

or possibly ELO's "Sweet Talkin' Woman"

My two best guesses.

Thanks, Jim-Me; but it's neither (the second wasn't even detected). Thanks, anyway.

I suddenly remembered!

"I've been <verb>ing, for tomorrow - all my life."
