I already answered this one up a few posts:

what song is this, the lyrics go something along the lines of...

"you've got a boyfriend
that looks like a girlfriend
that i had in february of last year"

That was an easy google. It's The Killers - Somebody Told Me.

Now for a real challenge:

You got it backwards dude, it's "Cold" by the band Crossfade. Believe me, they've played in my town 2 times in the past 3 months and are playing again next month.

SinisterMotives, regarding Agnetha Fältskog, could it be "The Heat is on" from her LP "Wrap your arms around me"?

Could be. I downloaded the title track, but it doesn't ring a bell. I'll check it out. Thanks! :D

I saw some video the other day when I was half asleep so I did not catch the name of the band or the song. It had what appeared to be a bunch of mimes the most prominant of which was playing the drums. The song had a very distinctive Piano (riff?) line in it that was repeated throughout and is very prominant.

I am pretty sure it was a female singer in it.

Sorry for the crappy desc. I know you all have done more with less though so that is why I ask. . .

This is an older post but I don't see where it's been answered.
But I think you might be talking about Climax Blues Band "I Love You."It starts out:
When I was younger, man, I hadn't a care
Fooling around, hitting the town, growing my hair
You came along and stole my heart, win (?) you into my life
Oooh babe, you got what it takes so I made you my wife.
Since then I never looked back, it's almost like living a dream
And oooh I love you.
Late on in the song he says the "oooh I want you" line.
It's an awesome song from 1980 or so, always one of my favorites.

What's that song in the iPod commercial that has all those people jumping around? It has really fast singing and...yeah. I don't even have any words from it. Sorry. Help.

Hmm, there were lots of iPod television ads. Is it current?

It could have been a high voiced man or something. I think there was snow on the ground and they were playing outside.

Any help here?

Yeah it's on all the time. Outlines of people dancing on color-changing backgrounds...it starts with a short guitar intro then this guy starts singing really quickly about something "and screamin'" (I think)...but yeah, it's a current commercial.

How about “Walkie Talkie Man” by Steriogram? Link goes to the video on Apple website.

its a rap song...with indian music as the chorus...the chorus is sung by an indian lady

only caught two words of the chorus, the first words of it i think

it kinda goes "kyaa karego"

the rap song is sung by a guy

its not jay z f/ panjabi mc - beware of the boys

thx for any help

YES that's it! Thanks a lot!! :thumbsup:

Well - I had another Member's wife figure it out for me in case anyone was wondering. From my crappy description, she knew it to be

Dresden Dolls
Girl Anacronism

Great song very different. I had never heard of the band, but they are pretty good.

www.dresdendolls.com

-me goes off to buy CD. . .

a reggae cover of Seals and Croft's Summer Breeze

the only lyrics i can remember "cali weed, makes me feel fine, blowing through the (chalice?) to my mind...."


im trying to throw together a "housewarming" mix for a friend who just got his place... i cant recall the artist.

Rune

Maybe Jackie Mittoo?

ah , let me clarify...

t'wasnt a cover, it was a reworking of the song to fit a more 'rastafarian' theme ;)

Im looking for the song that is on the Sharp Aquos Commercial... Its the one where everyone has there eyes closed, and the advertisement is "more to see"...

anyone know???

thanks

Used AdTunes.com forum to find this information, as usual. The ad company was Wieden and Kennedy, and according to someone's contact there:
Here's a link that should take you to the video.

awsome! thanks!!! I will see if i can get it, or find more info on it too...

There's a new Nextel commercial out where there are 3 guys in an office, one with a boombox, and the other two dancing. It's an American 90's club style, and they keep saying: "ooh, baby baby." I can't get it out of my head. Please help if you can...

"Push It", by Salt-n-Pepa, from 1986. I didn't even have to hit AdTunes.com this time!

I am looking for a song for a friend.

It's a Lenny Kravitz song and is played in one of the newer GAP commercials.

Does anyone know what the title of this song is?

Thanks!

There's some debate on this; there may be two different versions of the ad. It will be either "Are You Gonna Go My Way" or "Lady".

/haven't seen it

The one I keep seeing is using Lady, not a bad tune either.

This is a song on my x's bob marley tape I have been looking for.

All I remember about it is the chorus, there are several voices, some female, and although I don't know the exact lyrics it sounds similar to

"I need a llama, a llama, a llama, a llama, to calm me down"

I don't know if llama is the correct word , but it is definatly

"I need a _____ , a _____, a _____, a ____ , to ____ me down"

Appears to be "Hammer", off of the album "Songs Of Freedom":
Found via Google Search: lyrics bob marley "i need a"

i've heard those jamaican llama's are quite useful. i can understand him needing one so bad.

Here are some lyrics I from a song I heard on the radio and would like to know that artist and song title:

It's a rock song, with a solo male vocalist.

I'd say it's slower tempo rock, and the lyrics in the quote above are sung much slower than they read.

Thanks!

Jimello - Heard of Google? It's the first hit on that search, and the next nine, at least. 3 Doors Down - Away From The Sun.

Sure, I've heard of Google, but using Google neglects the need for this thread.

That was the song, thanks!

any fans of really old folk music? I'm looking for the lyrics or information about a song called "Patches" I don't know who sang it or wrote it or anything...

Work it, boyfriends...

Is it an Alabama song? More country than folk, and probably not as old as "really old folk music." Hmm, good luck.

Song Search Results for "Patches" on allmusic.com

There is this hilarious video - I believe in Japanese... I would, if anyone is able to help me out with this, find out both the name and artist of the song that they are singing to.

Here
is the link to the video...

Secondly, there is a song that plays in 28 Days Later that I would like to know. It begins to play just as the charactors enter the grocery store and begin shopping.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance!

Don't have a copy of the DVD to try to figure out which song it is, but here's a link to the soundtrack listing on IMDB.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0289043/soundtrack

Pretty sure it's not the Godspeed You Black Emperor song because that's playing when he's walking around alone in the city before he finds anyone else alive (and I don't think the song comes back up later in the movie).

the GYBE tune fits that part of the movie so well... one of my favorite parts of the movie.

i have the DVD, so i might have to give it a spin this weekend and see if i can answer the question. i can't think of the tune that plays there from memory.

te song in the hummer commercial is happy jack by the who .

Here's the lyrics for "Patches". I had that 45 record when I was about 12. It's a tearjerker.

Sorry, here they are:

http://www.lyricsxp.com/lyrics/p/pat...ce_carter.html

I don't suppose you ever found the time to do this? :D

Okay, there are some songs I found on soulseek, the band is listed as "your place or mine." I've searched and searched for info on them, but can't find a single thing. I'm wondering if the band name was mislabled. The 4 songs are...
-another lover of a demo pop group
-hard liquor
-all our instruments are borrowed
-oh, how i spend my days

If anyone knows anything about them, please let me know. Also, does anyone know where I could host these songs for free so I can let people listen to them to maybe figure out who they are, if they are really not Your Place or Mine?

I just found <a href="http://hem.passagen.se/commonpaper/texter/yourplaceormine.html">this website</a>, which was the only hit for "demo pop group". It looks like your band, but I can't read the language...

thank you so much. I was able to find an English link from your site, which brought me to this page where you can actually download what are apparently the only 4 songs they have released.

http://82.182.65.23//jakob/ypom/demo.htm

I love the song "oh, how I spend my days." Love it love it love it.

I heard this song on the radio and the lyrics go "Let me take you home, boy won't you let me take you home" (this part is spoken) and I think I also heard something like "I need you tonight." It's a hip hop/R&B song sung by a female or female group and the beat sounds similar to J-Kwon's "Tipsy." I literally feel like the only person on earth who has heard this song. It's been bugging the hell out of me for a month now and no one seems to know. I will give my left nut to whoever gives me the title to this song.

I sort of feel ashamed having to ask for help with this since I'm always the one who rolls my eyes at people when they come into record stores humming tunes or singing lyrics to find a song but anyways.

I'm trying to find out the name of the song that was used once in the show Wildboyz and then it was used for the ads for the Sunday Night Stew on MTV. It's a rock type song with a girl (i think?) who isn't singing any lyrics. It sounds like gibberish. From what I can decypher, she's singing something like "Bom Bom Bom Bom Bom Bom Bom Bom, Woah Oh Woah Oh Woah Oh Woah Oh Woah Oh" it's either "Woah Oh" or "Dodo" or something like that. It's one of those really weird kind of songs that you get stuck in your head for days on end.

Anyone able to help me? Thanks in advance.

heard a song the other night and the lyric was " simple Simon never made it into Mexico"
have had no luck with searches and kinda liked the song but the dj never said the name or group while i was listening

I realize that this is kind of vague but this has been haunting me. There is this technoish song with someone whistling and a banjo and violins. If anyone knows what the hell I'm talking about please let me know.

Perhaps Cotton Eye Joe by Rednex? If so, I pity you for requesting it, and either way I hate you for putting it back into my head. Damn you! ;)

On Alias tonight they played a version of (I think) The Wind, by Cat Stevens, but it didn't sound quite like his version. Anyone know of who could of sung the cover? The voice sounded gentler and had gentler enunciation than the original version I was able to find.

Redlemon:
Twas not Cotton eyed Joe, this song had no words in it. I do apologize for putting that in your head. Please feel free to spit at the screen and shake your fist threateningly whenever my name pops up again.

A while back me and my friends were driving home at night on the highway, when this AWESOME techno song came on the radio. I mean it made the drive back SO memorable.. me and my friend still talk about it once in a while. The problem is, we don't know what the song was! All I can remember is it was techno, and sometimes a guy's voice would go, "I--I guess didn't know" or something like that (I wish I could say more here but I can't remember anything else!). It was just so cool. Does anyone here have any clue as to what this song is? It's probably no use because of my lack of information, but please, even if you guessed at what it was I could download it and see what if it's the one...
It would make my life complete to hear this song again.

You might want to be more specific. Was it house or drum and base or melodic or what? Was it in a major key? Was it modern techno? Was it trance? How long ago is "a while back"? Can you still play the song in your head?

Posted this answer on your other thread, guitardude, but figured I'd put it here too so no one keeps searching.

Even though I don't listen to techno, this song sounded familiar to me. I figured it must be Fatboy Slim or something else mainstream for me to have heard it. After I Googled the lyrics and "fatboy", I figured out it's actually a Crystal Method song called "Busy Child" (you can go to the Amazon album link here and play a snippit of the song: Amazon album link). I think I heard it over and over one night probably 5+ years ago at a friend of a friend's place playing a Playstation game called N20 Nitrous Oxide. The game's soundtrack is done by Crystal Method. We played for a few hours, so that's probably why I recognized it (since the songs repeated a lot on the game).

House of the Rising Sun, done with a woman with a sultry and sweet voice- ring a bell for anyone? (the only one I could track down was by Nina Simone, and that's not it)

Haven't heard it, but it is probably on this list at the Covers Project.

Wow, that's a great site that I didn't know about, I'll look through them, thanks!

Can anyone help me find this piece of music? Its very gard to describe, as there arent anty real words... but I'll try

The song is the backing track to a video that was going round a few months ago, it is basically a montage of atrocity photo's of Arab terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians, it starts with a countdown, and then flashes up "are you ready?" - the title is "Three Days in Israel" (of the video) - the music is kind of stirring and violent, with heavy violins that flash back and forth over a mournful, sundued and wordless wailing and it rises to a creshendo. Some of the photo's and video footage is truly horrifying, it ends with a photo of a dead baby and then the words "stop terror" and "peace" come up on screen.

Has anyone else seen this video and knows what the track that plays behind it is?

SF- That's (as far as I know) the main theme from "Requiem for a Dream", although I have no idea which remix it is. It's been remixed so many times, it's scary.

There is this acoustic guitar riff going on during the title screen of Kevin Smith's movie 'Jersey Girl' on the DVD. I tried looking for a soundtrack, but it appears as if there isn't one, which kinda sucks. Anyone know what this song is?

Although I didn't see a link for an actual CD soundtrack either, the Soundtrack Listing page for "Jersey Girl" on IMDB.com has a list of songs included in the movie. I would imagine it would be one of them.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0300051/soundtrack

ooooh, I didn't know that IMDB did that!

I thought of another one. The commercial for Cingular Allover network. I think the first set of lyrics are "I rolled into Nazareth..." something like that.

Answer via the AdTunes Forums:

This is a really odd request. I just downloaded the clip of Mischa Barton and Olivia Wilde (from The O.C.) kissing on the beach. I downloaded it......to admire the wonderful variety of sealife? I don't know if anyone else saw this but I want to know what song is playing in the background. Can anyone help me out? Much appreciated. Thanks

I was bored, so I tried to figure this one out. Found the vid clip and could only understand one line of the song, but as far as I can tell, it's a song called "Eve, The Apple of My Eye" by a band called Bell X1.

Well done, sir. Thats it exactly. If you get this much done in your free time I would hate to see what you can really get done. Thanks again.

Hello all,
this is an older song, sorta jazzy and mellow with a chorus that goes
"Can I just have one more dance with you, my love/ Can I just share some sweet romance with you, my love"

Any ideas?

Moondance. Van Morrison did the best-known version, I believe.

what is the background track used in this freestyle battle?

Ok, I'm trying to find a Heavy Metal song that sounds like it is from the early 90's metal scene around the time metallica was still good. Could be pantera, slayer, I dunno....

The only part I can remember from it is when he starts going like:

"dee da boo da" etc etc...

It's a kickass song, but with such a vague explanation, I hope I can find it again.

What song is this
 

the song goes like this
"There is something, I wanna know...(some more words in there that I don't know)..Do you wanna funk let me show you how, do you wanna funk with me.

Question?--Does anyone know who sang it or what the name of the song is
Thanks

Google Search: "funk with me" lyrics
There's a bunch of options there. Not my genre, so I can't identify it further, but I bet the first page of results has your song.

It's called "Do Ya Wanna Funk?" by a transvestite called "Sylvester"

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0...CLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

Anyone know what the song is from the new 'Nissan "Drive to A Million" Sales Event' commercial?

If it's the one I'm thinking of it's

The Vines - Ride

Does anyone know what is the name and artist of the song in the new Adidias commercial for their "intelligent shoe", where the man runs on different planes in the world.

Also the song from the boost moblie Nextel commerical with Kayne West and The game, the lyrics have the word, "where you at" in it a couple of time. Thanks

Anyone got a bead on what the "rock" song is during the montage at the end of this hitchhiker's guide trailer?
http://www.apple.com/trailers/touchs...ler_large.html

I have a couple of songs.
1: There is a remix of Orgy's "Fiction (Dreams in Digital)" that I have and want to know the artist that mixed it.
2: I found a Bizarre Remix of Cold's "Stupid Girl." Not that the mix is bad, but that is actually part of the title, but I can't tell for sure if it is legal stuff. I originally found it on www.extremecold.org but the site no longer exists. Was that site even legal? Guess not.

Even if you've heard them that's a good start.

okay there was this site on the net, that had this song about california that was sung by developly mental disabled adults and the like. they lyrics had somethin to do with meeting susan lucci and seeing her oscar or something...any help?!

I need help w/ a song I heard @ a restuarant the other day....
it has an arabian sound to it, and goes "ahhh rooot"
or something like that.
the only part i know other than that is i hear "faces of starvation"
i recored it on my phone a bit, but i have no idea.

Does anyone know that song you tend to hear at basketball games? It sounds like techno, then you hear people start singing along with the melody but with no words. I know this is vague, but I don't know how to describe it any better.

the dave... try zombie nation by kernkraft 4000

Does anyone know this song?
It was made and popular in the early-mid 90s
Sung by a female vocalist who is almost yodeling
There may be more flurishes in there I left out.
http://jupiter.walagata.com/w/sobedrummer/mystery.mid

"Almost yodeling" and early 90s would suggest either the Cranberries or Sinead O'Connor; however, I don't recognise your MIDI sample.

Found it, it was the Cranberries
Dreams to be exact....

trolled through adtunes for a while, but i didn't come up with anything
they should make accessing old pages faster in the forum
if you don't search, you can only advance 2 at a time

anyway, the song i'm interested in was featured in a car commercial in late 2003/early 2004. the song was some chillout track that i can't determine.
here is my best approximation of what i remember (no i'm not going to sing):
http://rapidshare.de/files/1655061/mystery.mp3.html (64 kb)

two scenes that i can recall:

side view of car in a store parking lot, hatchback open, being loaded from the rear (which is on the left side of the screen)

then there is a brief look from inside the car: one hip looking black guy sitting in the back seat, shot low from the front center armrest

it seemed like the options that the car had were changing throughout, but i can't say for sure (i.e. hatchback, no hatchback shown by morphing). likely to have been an import.

thanks for participating...

trickyy: Mitsubishi really got into a lot of trendy songs to promote their cars and if you think about it, helps narrow things down. Ford & Chrysler haven't gone the music route for the most part to my memory if you don't count these type music. Chevy has and they almost all seem to be American Themed / Springsteen type stuff. Nissan is almost all two songs that have something like zoom zoom in them. This doesn't sound like something the Germans would do unless it is Volkswagon maybe? Same for the high end Japanese cars like Lexus et all.

After that, not sure. Can't think of a Toyota comercial off hand other than the one were that bitter chic throws her BF's truck off the cliff(funny).

I found this information at http://www.zipposusa.com/mitsubishi/mitsubishisongs.htm

There is supposed to be every song they have used since 1999 through current. They have a couple of the songs available for download as well. Hope this helps your search.

Need name of Hawaiian band that covers "fire" (Pointer Sisters)
 

Ok so I heard at a university "luau" this Hawaiian cover of the Pointer Sisters song "Fire" (written by bruce springsteen) the cover was such a chill perfect summer song. Anyone know the band? Trying to find more of this stuff.

lyrics (to spark your memory)
I'm ridin' in your car, you turn on the radio
You're pullin' me close, I just say no
I say I don't like it, but you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

Late at night, you're takin' me home
You say you wanna stay, I say I wanna be alone
I say I don't love you, but you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

BRIDGE

You had a hold on me right from the start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumpin', actin' like a fool
Well, your kisses they burn, but my heart stays cool...

Well, Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Baby you can bet a love they couldn't deny
My words say split, but my words they lie
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

LEAD BREAK

Ooh fire...
Kisses like fire...
Burn me up with fire
I like what you're doin now, fire
Touchin me, fire
Touchin me, burnin me, fire
Take me home

FADE

Male singer by the way

OK, covers, that's my department...

Checking over at The Covers Project, the song Fire was covered by Ho'onu'a, which certainly sounds like it would be a Hawaiian band. This song is on their album Have a Good Time (Amazon link).

Next time, use the sticky thread at the top of the Music subforum for song requests.

didnt see the sticky :/ that'll teach me for posting in an unfamiliar corner of tfp. Thanks so much for the information, just got the song!

Theyre from my home town. Scumbags the lot of them. Trust me.

You know that Shaggy song, Angel? I'm pretty sure it's a cover of an oldie song, but I'm trying to figure out what the name of the old song is. Angel is too common of a word, and anything that comes up is the Shaggy song.
This line sounds pretty much like the old song. But after that, the words are changed.
