Thanks doc ... you went easy on me. The words did fit ... but apparently in the wrong order. Either way, I didn't really know of the song at all. Just made up words that fit...

That should've been Jack White, of course. Yesterday obviously wasn't my best day ever.

For item "S":
S. maudlin tune (2011)
loki - "Sad Song" (But by whom? ??? )
I think The Cars had a comeback hit in the early 2010s entitled "Sad Song"; is it them?
