Earlier in the afternoon, I heard a great song playing in the restaurant. It was loungy and jazzy and had a sexy female vocalist. I asked our waitress if she could get me the name of the song and then promptly forgot about my request. A deadly martini later, she wordlessly slipped a folded message next to my plate. I-66 and I looked at it a bit nervously completely perplexed about what it contained. Once we opened it, we were even more confused. The note said this:
Zo MCDE"What the...?!" It took us a few seconds to realize that the code was supposed to be the song and artist. It looked weird, but assuming that our beverages were adding to the confusion, I tucked it into my purse for later googling.
ONE SELF
The problem. It's been over a week and neither one of us has been able to find this song. The puzzle is compounded by the fact that we can't really tell if "One Self" is the band or the song name. After various tricks and tries (including, apparently, a few spins through an anagram solver), we've decided to open the mystery up to our reading public.
So, your mission (should you choose to accept it): find me this song...
The winner gets a magazine subscription of his/her choice (to be selected from a list of the ones my company publishes). If the winner is in DC, then he/she will also get an added bonus courtesy of block rockstar....

Love it.
Your prize is so much better than mine :\
Umm....The only thing I have ever heard of is One Self the group. They have a cd called the Children of Possibility. But I have not found a song titled Zo MCDE. Amazon labels them a a jazz group though I would label most of their songs as hip hop. There is a womans voice on some of the songs (including Sunday Afternoon) that has a Jazzy feel too it. Check them out maybe that is what you were listening to.
Any chance this is the group:

Now that is one interesting tidbit to the I-66 story that I did NOT hear.
And ps, mi iscrivi a bazaar se vinco o no, giusto?
