Request from a friend: This song was played on the muzak station at a Forever21 store. It is "a new song". It is uptempo, and sung by a female lyricist. It is "a fusion of modern dance music and old school disco". It has the lyric "disco" in it. It's apparently not Shiny Toy Guns' "Le Disko". Any ideas? If I can find it before she does I will be the awesomest friend ever.

I think it's a newer song, sort of arcade fire/arctic monkeys. Definitely post queens of the stone age era. I'm sure I'll stumble across it again eventually.

Been searching for this one for ages: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cWzWil_h8s It says in the video description it's by "She". I looked on Last.fm and found the page (http://www.last.fm/music/she) but can't seem to find it! Very frustrating. Can anyone shed some light on it?

This is a really, really well known song performed by I believe a really well known artist and I'm gonna kick myself when I know it, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. It's a love song sang by a female, fairly old, say maybe 15-20 years. Basically the chorus consists of a long "Whyyyyyyyyyyy-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahhhhh" and then I'm pretty sure it's followed up with "did you tell me it's over?" or something similar. It's set to a really nice piano beat. Please someone put me out of my misery.

Somebody tell me the name of the melody that plays when you hit a cat in City Connection. I know I've heard this in cartoons and elsewhere, and it's probably a ragtime standard, or something.

I'm at my wit's end with this song. It's the music for the US trailer of "Millenium Actress": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpGrD5wUzKE It's the song in the first half of the trailer that I'm trying to identify. It's not on the soundtrack, but it is used on the DVD menu as well. I'm afraid it might have been made specifically for the trailer by one of those companies that pumps out music for just such a purpose. Is there any hope of identifying this?

A while back someone on NMD posted about a really weird American musician (if I remember correctly, from Ohio). He plays a crazy mix of surf rock, metal, jazz, and even a little post rock. It was a solo project and I was given his Myspace link. I think one of his albums was title something like "How to Get hosed Up" or something along those lines. I would really appreciate it if I could get that link again, I can't remember it for the life of me.

Not sure if I'll have any luck but I can't recall the lyrics well enough to google search. I heard a song late night on a college radio station that sounded like heavy rock-n-roll blues, sort of like the Black Keys, but it sounded more old and "primal" and it didn't sound like their vocalist. The only words I can remember are along the lines of "got a chip on my shoulder" and then a second contrasting sentence (in the vein of "but I ain't gonna blah blah")? Over a chugging, cool blues riff. Thanks for any help.

Could anyone help indentify the songs in this clip? First, there's some kind of rock intro, I almost recognize it, but can't place it. Second and third are some 60's songs Fourth and last, there's some piano intro to a song, dunno which!

Okay, this is going to be one hell of a stretch, but I've had this song pop into my head for YEARS and I cannot get it out. I never listen to the radio, but I heard it on the air multiple times while in several stores in 2005-2006. The station playing this was a local popular rock station called KROQ in Southern California. I can hear it in my head, but don't know a way to convey the melody here. I remember a few of the words in the chorus, but I'm sure my memory is wrong because I've done lyric searches many times and came up with nothing. The chorus started with something like "Waiting for the answer, waiting for the time" <--- "time" was stretched out over 4 notes. The only word I am almost 100% certain is answer. And the very end of the song said something like: "Never. Ever... go hoome... hoome (fades out repeating)" I know, this is crazy. The lead vocalist was male, but higher pitched. Sounded kind of like The White Stripes or Strokes, but with a lot of vibrato, especially while singing the word "answer". Any help would be greatly appreciated, and will add years onto my life that I have already lost trying to figure this out. EDIT: I found some crappy online keyboard, and recorded myself playing the chorus notes how I remember. Hopefully this helps: http://www.treytor.com/song.mp3 Dashes separating what I think the words are over each note: "Wai-ting-for-the-an-swer. Wai-ting-for-the-ti-ii-ii-ime" Treytor fucked around with this message at 01:32 on Jan 15, 2010 |

I have a request where I actually know the title of the song but can't for the life of me find it. I have no idea if it's on a proper release or if it's just floating around on a dozen hard-drives around the internet. (I've found people on Last.fm that have it--think they might be able to send it to me? Anybody ever try something like that on Last.fm?) It's a track called "Mung Effusion" from the keyboardist from Marilyn Manson, stage name of Madonna Wayne Gacy (birth name Stephen Bier). It's an ambient track with some sort of primal drumming and, mixed very low, some crazy-hobo-sounding growling that really erupts for a few seconds during the track. Years after losing it in a Windows installation disaster, I've built it up in my mind as being a very cool track. Hopefully it's at least a little neat, and I would love to hear it again.

This should be super simple. I hear it every day at the gym and I assume it's all over the pop charts. What is the song that starts at the 2:42 mark? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcv-bHzOVuY In a side note, bearbot (the mash up artist linked) is awesome.

This one will be difficult: On iO Digital Cable's Dance/Electronica Music Channel, there is a song where most of the lyrics end with '...for me'. I was half-asleep and didn't catch any other lyrics but it sounded really good. I've been searching everywhere and trying to find playlists but can't.

All right first off this is for a friend, not me, and I didn't hear the song myself. Song is by a male singer. He described it as "folky" and "sad" and it may have been released in the 90s and played on rock radio. The chorus goes "na---na---na--na--na--na, na na na na", one of the verses starts with "in the" and the song may have some Christian themes. And it's not A Long December by Counting Crows. Edit: My friend is retarded and pretty much all of his information was wrong. It was "Horse with No Name" by America! Arturo Ui fucked around with this message at 06:11 on Jan 21, 2010 |

Ok this one has been annoying me for ages: The only lyric I know is 'Honey, I don't care', it's a woman singing and the chorus goes 'Honey I don't caaaaaaarrrreee'. It may have been released in the period 1995-2003, definitely no later but possibly earlier.
