Nights In White Satin - Moody Blues

 

[Damon_3388]

I didn't think this was worthy of starting a new thread over, and didn't really know where to ask this, but I was wondering if people can help me with indentifying a song:

I've heard it a few times at a venue that plays '60s/'70s soul/funk/Motown stuff pretty regularly (so it's in that style and from that era), and it's kind of a familiar tune, in that it's one of those ones that you hear plenty of times in your life, but have no idea what it's called or who sings it. It's one of those tunes that pops up in movies occasionally, and has probably been sampled/reworked/used as a backing track in hip-hop along the way as well, kind of like how Kanye West sampled Curtis Mayfield's "Move On Up" on "Touch the Sky". The chorus is an unbeat instrumental horn part that sounds a bit like Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" played backwards, and goes "deh-ne-ne neh na-ne-neh, den-ne-ne neh na-ne-neh". I've Googled all combinations of the tune and possible lyrics (I think there might be a "higher!.... higher!" in there, which doesn't narrow things down much, and it's entirely possible that I could be confusing those lyrics with another song), and listened to dozens of classic soul/funk/Motown tunes that I didn't recognise by title in the hope that I'll stumble across it though that, but haven't had any luck in finding what it actually is. I know that's not much to go on, but from that, can anyone pick the song?

Given people are in a helpful mood, does anyone recognize the dance track playing in the first 5 seconds of this vid. I asked this in the electronica thread with no luck.

Thanks Such a classic tune

According to iMDb, this song has soundtracked such films as The Blues Brothers, Casualties of War, Apollo 13, American Gangster and Due Date. I've seen all those films, as well as hearing it a few other times in my travels (as I mentioned), so no wonder I know it without knowing it

Sam and Dave are awesome.

Their song 'Soul Man' was also used as a movie tune, in the criminally underrated 80's comedy of the same name.

They also do in my opinion the definitive version of 'When Something Is Wrong With My Baby'

Indeed

C. Thomas Howell! Such a funny movie.

Better than the early '90s Barnsey/Farnsey collaboration?
