I already answered this one up a few posts:

impulse03

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"

SinisterMotives

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

SinisterMotives

Now for a real challenge:

tspikes51

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.

Pip

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

SinisterMotives

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

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.

Redlemon

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

Mondak

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.

Redlemon

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

balefire88

wrongfullyaccuzd

YES that's it! Thanks a lot!!

Mondak

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.

ah , let me clarify...

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

SAM821

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

Redlemon

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.

SAM821

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

tspikes51

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!

Grondar

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

Coronaboy72

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"

Redlemon

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

high_jinx

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!

Redlemon

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.

Jimellow

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

That was the song, thanks!

Wheat King

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...

anleja

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

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.
