No. A bit more obscure than that. It could possibly be from the 80's as well. I'm thinking 90's though.Disarm - Smashing Pumpkins

The Nirvana MTV Unplugged performance features an often played cover of David Bowie's "Man Who Sold the World". It prominently features the cello and sounds very nice paired up with Cobain's guitar.

Nope. I know all of those songs well. I heard it on the radio tonight. A retro hits station. The cello/violin, reminds me a bit of early Goo Goo Dolls. It's a slower song though. Cello has a bit of a mourning to it.

I don't even know what a cello is.
The Man Who Met Andy Griffith

I take it no vocals at all?
Patrick Bateman
Footballguy
There are vocals, I just don't know the words. It has that atmospheric vibe to it.

There isn't much to go on here. Cello and 80's or 90's alt rock is just too broad. Just taking a stab in the dark....Afghan Whigs, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Psychedlic Furs, and Echo and the Bunnymen all sort of fit the bill here.No. A bit more obscure than that.

I'm quite familiar with all of those bands. The singer is male. None of those for sure. A bit more obscure.There isn't much to go on here. Cello and 80's or 90's alt rock is just too broad.

Is there anything with which you are not "quite familiar"--other than this song?
Chest Rockwell
Footballguy
I'm sorry. More obscure?Like 15 year-old band geek, at talent show, in his parents basement obscure? Good luck. You kinda lost me at Goo Goo Dolls anyway.I'm quite familiar with all of those bands.

Gotta be Andrew "Scrap" Livingston on the cello with Mike Doughty. My guess is one of these two...

This goes way back beyond the '80s or '90s, but taking a stab in the dark:

Could it be a new song from a legendary 90's band,
PS, sorry for the lame ad at the start of the vid.

Could you be a little more vague?

This was my guess also, until he said it was 90's.

This was my guess at first, but that songs goes "da da daaaaa, da da daaaaa" not "da da da da...da da"Unless I'm reading that completely wrong.

It may also be known as a 'chello'. HTH.

Well, they had albums out in the 90's. I was listening to them then. I do like the new collaborations, though.

I have no idea, but I'll take this opportunity to plug my good buddy Les Claypool's
. It has cello in it.

Did their earlier stuff have lyrics? I thought they were instrumental up until a few years ago.

Yes!! Thank you!

I believe most of it didn't, but I missed post 9 where the OP said that it had lyrics. I can honestly say I haven't heard the song he was looking for, though. So I wasn't much help.
