▲ 7 ▼ Help naming song: 60s pop, sounds like it's performed by a middle school band (lemmy.world) submitted 7 months ago by 2piradians@lemmy.world to c/music@lemmy.world 13 comments fedilink hide all child comments Solved thanks to @etherphon! Tears of a Clown by Smokey Robinson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMEz0lB6hBI I tried a browser search but results were all over the place. It's a pretty common tune and I was curious about its background. EDIT: I should have put middle school orchestra in the title, sorry about that.

I think it's an instrumental but not certain. All my brain will spit out is the intro/chorus and verse tunes. Here's a lame attempt at the melody: Doo, ^doo^, ^^doo^^, (rest), da-da-^dat^ dat dat doo permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago* (1 child) You better whistle or hum the melody into Vocaroo, because otherwise this is woefully little info to go off. There was a lot of orchestral pop music in the sixties. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] 2piradians@lemmy.world [S] 1 point 7 months ago Hey thanks, didn't know about that site.
