"When I'm With You" on Y&R 7/12/11

Lots of people have been asking about the song on Y&R's 7-12-11 show called "When I'm With You" in the montage scene with Billy & Victoria after a scene in court (you can see the scene about 7 1/2 minutes into this YouTube clip)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhXVcK7WBLE

It is a nearly perfect song for the scene, and it has a Michael Kisur-like vibe to it (the singer-songwriter, who with collaborator Brad Hatfield won an Emmy for Y&R a few years ago, "Best Song For a Daytime Drama - SUNSHINE").

The song is "When I'm With You" (by Dan Gautreau and Tom Howe) and can be downloaded here:
