You must have a touch screen computer like I do because tapping the keys makes a sound. Anyway WordWolf, I figured that's what you were hinting at. I watched "The Graduate" on TV last night.
I'm getting the sense that this is a subliminal message by WordWolf of some sort. Or, maybe because he ended his post with an exclamation point he like is bewildered. That looks French so google tells me that, "La Marseillaise" is the National anthem of France. Not knowing any French, I dug a little deeper and tried to decipher whether somewhere in the song are the lyrics ("There's nothing you can do that can't be done") in my post are also in those lyrics, and after translating "La Marseillaise" to English I couldn't find any similarities.
Now had they been the National anthem to say England, or even to the world, or for any nation, then, that would have made sense. So I guess what I'm saying is No.
Listen to the beginning of this song, then listen to the beginning of "La Marseillaise." The opening notes are the same. IIRC, they share the same 16 notes at the beginning, and diverge at the 17th note.
Seriously not it. This was the opening to U2's "VERTIGO."
I loved seeing a trivia question once. "U2's song 'Vertigo' begins with the line 'Uno, dos, tres, catorce.' What does 'catorce' mean?" I busted out laughing. It's 14. The song begins, "1,2,3,14!" in Spanish.

Never mind. I see WW posted the actual answer. His Marseillaise clue gave it away, to me.

I'm hoping this isn't considered obscure- the band sure isn't.....

I know you've done this before, and I know it's not "Wooly Bully," which has a similar opening.

I didn't google the lyrics, but I did google "What I Like About You." That's not it.
