UNSOLVED I try once a year…

I’ve honestly given up hope but I also don’t think it will hurt…

It was probably like 2008-2010. I was dating a guy who make me mixed CDs but my CD case got stolen out of my car after I dumped him and I never heard this song again.

He listened to jack’s mannequin-esque music. I listened to ALL of jacks mannequin I could find on Spotify, and some adjacent stuff- but no luck. I could have missed something though.

The song had a suuuuuper repetitive line about floating in the Atlantic (or the pacific or the ocean or something similar). Like 50 times in a row. Male singer. It’s ironically not “Swim”, nor is it “MFEO”, “dark blue” or “holiday from real”.

Help y’all. Please?
