I just purchased Across the View from iTunes, so I'll have that one on the iPod on every flight now.

What's that song?
I flew AA 767s twice in the last 10 days, and while taxiing to the gate or waiting to disembark, a very catchy song was played over the PA system. I intially thought it was by Dido, and I thought I caught a holiday/Christmas reference in the lyrics. A few days after returning home, I caught a snippet of the Colbie Caillat song "Bubbly." Is that the same song? It sounds very familiar, but I didn't hear any holiday lyrics in this version.

Come Fly with Me - Frank Sinatra
Learning to Fly -Pink Floyd
Airplane - Indigo Girls
Beat Up Old Jetliner - Bob Rivers
Flying - Prism

I don't know the songs either, but I heard them on only one flight after landing. I never heard them since. I thought it sounded like a current song from radio at that time... but don't remember.

I've been awake for a while now
You've got me feelin' like a child now
Cause everytime I see your bubbly face
I get the tingles in a silly place
It starts in my toes
And I crinkle my nose
Where ever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Where ever you go
The rain is fallin' on my window pane
But we are hidin' in a safer place
Under cover stayin safe and warm
You give me feelins that I adore
They start in my toes
Make me crinkle my nose
Where ever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Where ever you go

It's hit or miss sometimes - but check the alternate search measures available in the Unofficial Users' Guide, and try, try again.
The search situation is temporary - unfortunately, the original search was causing the s-l-o-w-n-e-s-s we were experiencing, and using the IB Beta search is temporary only. Thank goodness!

Actually, was quite bored and searched many key terms knowing I had previously seen something regarding the same topic!
