its an 80s style song, very upbeat, like a dance song almost, i think it includes the words without you and something about start the fire close tot he chorus or in the chorus, i know sketchy detials, but im sure someone knows what im talkin about, could be one hit wonder, i dont recognize the group but i dont know for sure either- kinda hard to understand, especially in the chorus, different vocals going more or less at once

could be Funeral for a friend -  escape artists never die, but there a new band, not 80s, but there music is quite old school rok

no it sounds more 80s not so much rock, sounds kinda like debarge or miami sound machine, im pretty sure its not them but it is their sound, upbeat, soft rock, kind of a dance or workout tape song

most likely the song you are looking for is "billy joel - we didn't start the fire"

It will still burn on, and on, and on, and on...

CHORUS TO FADE

i found a remix that sounds kinda like the chorus, its by mylo and it keeps saying "in my arms baby yeah" obviously not the same singer but has a very similar beat, might be sampled from the song im looking for
i know in the real song part of the chorus is "thats where you belong in my heart baby yeah" i dont know the part that comes before it , there are two short phrases that i cant make out then thats the last one- help please
