I'll try this one. It seems a bit ridiculous, but it is getable, if a tad contrived.
There was once a rather gay lady, who was trying to learn to sing, she had her scales perfect, except she could never got the 4th note of the tonic scale in tune. Then she found a new teacher who taught her the correct breathing, which enabled her to sing the note in tune and she lived happily ever after.
The only thing I'm fairly confident about is that it starts 'Les'........
So I'll try some 'Les' bands and if one of them's right await an explanation
Less Than Jake, Les Rythmes Digitales (again!), Les Negresses Vertes, Les Savy Fav.....
Hi Terrence
If your linking gay with 'Les' you are on the right track, but 'Les' isn't part of the answer.
I might give it away if I say more, but also note 'lady' in context.

clue - No Mausoleum
Decrypt?
I am informed by the younger colleague who chose the band for me to clue, that they are some modern and positive beat combo.
could just as easily have been an occupied local RNLI station...where the boat has been stolen after a Republican coup de-institutionalised the place!
(tomb = Mausoleum. Republican = IRA)
But cant make rest fit.
a mausoleum is a
of the dead? so the opposite of it would be?
