Alright 'Crappers, I need a solid here to help solve the mystery of the song that's been in my head as of late. Apologies in advance if my clues aren't of much help, but here's what I know. I know the song is at least from the 1970's (it might be older/newer than that) and fairly popular (you'd likely hear it on your local classic rock station). I tried Jeeving the lyrics myself but the part that's stuck in my head is likely the wrong words. But it does sound like the vocalist (a male) is singing, "Are you gonna stand by me?" It's relatively upbeat and is in kind of the same groove as Stealer's Wheel "Stuck In The Middle With You". Any help would be appreciated!

It's not Lenny Kravitz unfortunately. It's older than that, I think.

It's got kind of a hippy-esque, fun vibe to it. I'm sure it's been in a bunch of movies (of course none of which I can think of off-hand) too.

The Clash - Train In Vain (Stand By Me)? Or maybe this song?

Anytime. That song just started playing in my head as soon as I saw the words "stand by me" in the first post (and then, for a while, I couldn't remember what it was). ;D
