    please help! keyboard sample provided.

    hi everyone. i'm not sure if this song would be considered "disco" or "r&b", but i'm desperate for help! the song sounds like it was done during the mid-late 70's. voices are sung in a high harmonious falsetto throughout the whole song, and it almost sounds like in the chorus he's saying "something leads to nothing". reminds me of an upbeat earth wind & fire song, but i've searched and i don't think it's them. it's one of those "i've heard that song a million times, recognize the keyboard riff, but don't know anything else about it" tunes for someone my age (21). i recorded a midi sample of the catchy keyboard/toy piano line located here: http://members.aol.com/copewithscience/sample.mp3 -- the speed that i made it is fairly accurate to the tempo of the song, probably around 120 BPM.
    any help would be greatly appreciated! i know it's a vague post, but it's all i've got to go on :). thanks!

    Doobido...

    Hi,

    I wonder if it could be "What A Fool Believes" by The Doobie Brothers? Areetha Franklin also did it.
