And now for something completely different

Stratford, NJ
About the only thing worse than having a song stuck in you head is not being able to think of a damn thing about a song that you’re trying to think of.

Case in point: sometime around 1999, I heard some obscure English song by some obscure Eastern-European rock group that, if I remember correctly, was unintentionally funny.  Somehow, I found the mp3. 

Well, that mp3 vanished long ago and, for some reason, tonight that song came to mind.  Sort of.  I can’t really remember any details.  I’ve already typed everything I remember about it.  I think either the band or the song had a letter X in it.  Maybe 2 ‘x’es.

Any ideas what it could be?  I know I have some readers in the Ukraine (hi!  I don’t know who you are, but hi!)…any help?

I know, it sounds impossible, doesn’t it?  Well, I’ve come through better than this before.  When I was in 5th grade in 1993, I was in the car with my mom, and there was a song on the radio.  In the chorus, there was one line, “it’s all the same!” that, for reasons I can’t explain, stuck with me for years.  Every once in a while, I’d google and have no luck.  BUT!  Eventually I managed to track it down: “Close Your Eyes” by Edward Bear.  It’s not a favorite song by any means, but finding it put my mind at ease.  I’d really like to find this song that I can’t think of right now.
