Lines: 14 Keywords: Harmony, A Capella, The Roaches Hello, I am looking for a song that was done by a female group virtually a capella (there was a string accompaniment). I have been told that The Roaches do a lot of a capella work but I do not know if they did this particular song. This group (whoever they are) uses crescendos and decrescendos masterfully together with perfect intonation to make a beautiful piece. The only notes are remember are the following: "Johnny, it's downhill from here." Any takers? eliot lear
