This fragment of a song has been bugging me for weeks. It has a spanish guitar strum the chord pick twice then some part of a chorus "My Angelina, My Angelina' I think it a folk style from the 80's maybe. here's a link to soundclick I picked it out on Garageband piano. Hoping someone will recognize it
https://www.soundclick.com/html5/v4/player.cfm?songID=13902724
I have searched the net but come up empty so I most likely have the name Angelina wrong but can't think of any other name to fit
Thanks for any help

I listened to the 12 second clip but it doesn't ring a bell.

Can you give us a little more detail? Is the song an instrumental or vocal? What is the lead instrument or gender the vocalist? What genre is the song? Did you first hear the song on radio, in a television show or in a play? Is your clip about the same tempo or key as the original? The more hints you can provided the better chance one might jog someone's memory.

I found several songs that fit that lyric.



if this isn't it... at least you have a way to find it now.

A lot of new songs are triggered by something unconscious. After all, there are only twelve notes. A groove, or motif, or even a tempo will inspire me to write some new song. Who is to know exactly what I drew on?

And then there's the old classic that your brain "remembers" something that didn't happen. Or in this case.... you think the song is the best freaking song ever...and it's great and all that, and so nostalgic, and then you hear it and reality sets in as you realize that it is in fact the song you were thinking about but it's nowhere close to being what you thought it was......

The other weird thing is I matched(in my brain)Joan Baez, Diamond and Rust verse but that's how my brain patches things together.
You're right there is no true history just vague recollection of real or imagined events strung together on the clothesline of life
Wow that was somebody else in my head HAHA

Any chance it is Emmylou Harris, "Michelangelo"?:

(though not a 1980's song)

I love that album and that song as well as "the dragons are flying tonight" but the song in my head is a male singer and there is a Spanish style guitar strum and a finger pick. I'm thinking maybe 70's western
Anyway I love Emmylou's songs

Is it Marty Robbins' "My Angelina" by any chance? (This is from a 1982 album "Some Memories Just Won't Die".)

I hate when that happens! Sometimes you can only remember a small fraction of the song, and it's even worse when it's super stuck in your head but you just can't remember what it's called or who it's by. I've lost many hours trying to find such songs before. Good luck on your hunt!


Cheers,
Ember
