Subject: Help with Song Title/Artist

Written By: DJ Midas on 8/25/2000 at 11:02 a.m.

Ok, I need help with 2 songs:

The first is a disco/funk sounding song, may have been late 70's or early 80's, has a female vocal (Donna Summer-sounding) and the chorus begins "IIIIII've got my finger on the trigger..."

The second is one I asked about a few months back and got no response; thought I'd try again, I heard at a club in the late 80's, very progressive sounding with male vocal and at the bridge or chorus he was repeating "Tell me tell me you can't say (or stay?)" dropping to a lower note after the first two times. The music was very Mode-like, a lot of synth, reminded me of "Just Can't Get Enough."

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

DJ Midas

This is a toughie!
My first thoughts drifted to Nitzer Ebb to Yaz to New Order to Dead or Alive.Heck, even Sigue Sigue Sputnik ('member them?!)...Brainstoming and I *think* I have a winner.
I *think*-not 100%.
"se senorita hairy grill"-Yello.
But it woulnd't be "tell me" it would be "touch me" that he repeats.There is some guitar licks, but it is fast,and it does have a lot of synth.
Like I said, a toughie!
If I come up with any possible clues,I'll let you know!

Thank you for your help. I heard it late 1988 or early 1989 if that helps any...The vocal sounds like it could be Mode or Ebb...I'll have to check out the Yello track to see if that's it. Thank you.
