Finally recognizing a song

There's a classic rock song I would love to download but I dont' the freaking name of it or who sings it.

It starts off as a classic guitar chord, goes into something resembling a reggae beat, then has someone moaning "Diiiaaane" or "Dyyyyyingg"

Any help?

Led Z's version of 'In My Time of Dying'?

Maybe this only happens to me, but:

I've heard about Alanis Morissette's song "Ironic," of course, because of everyone citing "it's like rain on your wedding day" whenever someone else mis-uses the word irony.

And I've heard the song, in the background at bars, restaurants, whatever. Never knew that the title was, however, and didn't really care.

Then last night, waiting for some food in a restaurant, I heard it again, put two and two together and realized the song I'd been hearing all this time was the song I'd been hearing ABOUT all this time.

I know this has happened to me with other songs, although I can't remember specifics.

Ever happen to you?

Have you spent the last 12 years in a cave?

Goalmouth's post reminds me of another Alanis song, the truly exorable (sp?) "You Oughta Know." My next-door neighbors in my last year of college would play that song all fucking morning long every fucking day. I'm like, goddamn, you guys are in a frat, not a sorority. Go buy some testosterone and put on some Metallica or something.

And the thing that always made me laugh about Extreme's "More Than Words" is the image of lite FM listeners going into a store to buy "Pornograffiti" and being horrified upon learning it's is a funky heavy metal concept album about a kid surrounded by smut.

I've always enjoyed that, too, BYH...

I wondered what some of those people thought of "He-Man Woman Hater" and "Suzie (Wants Her All Day What?)"...

I always figured people felt duped when they bought that album after "More Than Words" and "Hole-Hearted" hit it big...

Get the WHAT out? He's saying fuck there!
No granny he's saying funk.
Well it sounds like fuck! But that "When I First Kissed You" song is so nice!

"My voice was so far, not quite Sinatra..."
