"True" by Spandau Ballet?

That's not it either. I got sorta motivated today and listened to a bunch of 80s songs we have, but no dice so far on that front.

"Life in a Northern Town" by Dream Academy?

That's not it either, but if it helps I just added some more details that might make it easier to find/recognize.

Bumping this thread to add an approximate imitation of the percussion beat (which I probably should have done in the first place).

Update on this query from 5 years ago (to anyone who still remembers it): I'm 99% certain I managed to find out what this mystery song was. As it turns out, it wasn't from the 1980s, or even a full song at all; I was thinking of the bridge to Limp Bizkit's cover of "Behind Blue Eyes" (2:31 to 3:03). Memories can get so twisted with age.

For that 1% of uncertainty you have I say that the song So Serious by Electric Light Orchestra also fits the description. An 80's romantic rock song with multiple I's.

Only because I read an article about this recently, could it possibly be "Groove is in the Heart" by Deeee-lite?

The "I" is actually Eva Gabor as Lisa Douglas from Green Acres.

It's definitely not "So Serious", and I'm already familiar with "Groove is in the Heart" so it's not that either. Locking to stop more necroposts because I've long accepted it's "Behind Blue Eyes".
