Question ID: 727141
I'm looking for any information on a song played in the background of
an episode of "Sports Night."  It's from the episode "La Forza del
Destino", and it's the first song played in the sequence at Anthony's
at the beginning of the episode, while Dan makes a speech about people
sleeping together in times of war, among other things.

It's possible that my Google skills suck, but it's also possible that
this question can't be answered without a Sports Night DVD set and a
good ear.  I tried catching lyrics and thought I heard phrases
including "has anybody told you.." "she said" "I'm stuck in this [ ]
and there's no way out" "has anybody told you" "take me down" and
there's lots of rhyming that ends in "ire" or "ired."  Normally this
would be way more information than necessary to track the song down,
but either I'm mishearing a lot or the lyrics just aren't transcribed
anywhere.  So this might require more luck than research, but if
anyone out there has any idea, I would be very grateful for the info!

I can watch the episode, but I find a sountrack list for the show. I
believe one of the songs is what you are looking for.

Music

The show?s theme and music are by WG Snuffy Walden (also of West Wing,
Thirtysomething, etc.) The show also occasionally features songs from
outside sources. Dan and later Nick have invested a certain amount of
effort in compiling a master SN playlist. Here?s Nick?s current
version (I?m calling it 0.8):

    * 1 Theme (WG Snuffy Walden)
    * 2 Afternoon Delight (Starland Vocal Band)
      in ?The Apology?
    * 3 Hymn to Her (The Pretenders)
      in ?The Hungry and the Hunted?
    * 4 Someone to Watch Over Me (Keith Jarrett)
      in ?The Head Coach, Dinner, and the Morning Mail?
    * 5 Boogie Shoes (KC and the Sunshine Band)
      in ?Dear Louise?
    * 6 The Weight (The Band)
      in ?The Quality of Mercy at 29k?
    * 7 Never Been to Spain (Three Dog Night)
      not in ?Small Town?
    * 8 Crimson and Clover (Tommy James and the Shondells)
      in ?Sallly?
    * 9 How are Things in Glocca Morra
      not in ?How are Things in Glocca Morra
    * 10 Sloop John B (The Beach Boys)
      in ?Sword of Orion?
    * 11 Eli?s Comin? (Three Dog Night)
      in ?Eli?s Comin??
    * 12 She Will Have Her Way (Neil Finn)
      in ?Special Powers?
    * 13 It?s in His Kiss (Betty Everett)
      in ?Special Powers?
    * 14 Walking on Sunshine (Katrina and the Waves)
      in ?Shane?
    * 15 It Hurts So Bad (Susan Tedeschi)
      in ?The Giants Win the Pennant, The Giants Win the Pennant?

Note that this version is missing Todd Thibaud?s ?Sweet Destiny,? and
probably some other things.
