How about "Thunder Road" by Newsong ? (a Christian rock group)

shysal YES! thank you grin

I haven't been able to locate the 2nd yet. It's a quiet song, folkie, like the first, sung by a man.
Mudcat doesn't recognise it either.

I'm not quite sure if the other references given here are the titles, groups or the singer so my further searches are coming up with weirdness and nothing like song titles or lyrics.

I'll keep hoping someone remembers or knows what I'm talking about.

Thankyou smile

I know the melody of the second one but cant put a song to it ,I think its a modern band ,maybe FirstAid Kit or Lady Antebellum I'll trawl through some CD's to see if I can find it.

2nd one could be by Kiss.

Google brings up 'Waltz into Winter' by Archie Fisher for the first one, but nothing for the other.
Good luck with your search.

Did you hear the songs on a radio show that can listened to again? The programme's website may show a playlist. If you can listen again but there is no playlist try the free Shazam app for your phone which listens and identifies recordings.

I think I'm on a hopeless quest. I have just heard 2 folkie-style songs but have no idea what they are and a Google and Spotify search brings up nothing.

One begins: I've only just realised the martins have gone ...
martins being birds in this case.

The second had a chorus which featured: In this place with life's hard thunder ...

I wonder if Gransnetters, who have such eclectic tastes, can recognise either or both and enlighten me?

Thank you
