   OK, think back... back to 1987, maybe 1988, not later than that.  The   
   song started out with trombone/baritone sax/typical ska horn mix,   
   opening bars were:   
      
   dooodooot, dadooodooot, doot doot da DOOOdoot/   
      
   dooodooot, dadooodooot, doot doot da DOOOdoot/   
      
   then kicked into gear with guitars and drums, 8/4 beat.  The vocals   
   were (roughly):   
      
   "I! can't get something some-something something/I! can't get something   
   some-something something/You, what was that promise that you made..."   
   The "I!" was shouted by a group of people.   
      
   Then one more line, and the chorus was a shouted "Slow Down!" (or   
   something that sounded like that) with the opening riff repeating in the   
   background.
