The song appears to be called "Foggy Tam Set" by Kammen & Swan. It's on their album "Wild Wood" http://magnatune.com/artists/albums/shira-wildwood/ though I'm going to guess you're looking for the name of the original folk song rather than their interpretation?

In related Kammen & Swan news, apparently they did the music from the title screen/world selection area of Braid. So now we know.

Yeah, I know where the Kammen and Swan version is from, I'm trying to find the original. I tried checking The Civil War credits and soundtrack too, no luck there either.

e: Think I found it. The song is "The Foggy Dew". There's about a billion renditions at different pacings.

Heya everyone, having trouble finding a rap song with the chorus of "long hair, make up on" Rather deep voice, with the beat stopping at the comma, and starting up again for the next part. It's not Mr. Bigg or at least I don't think so. Any help is appreciated.

Edit: Found it. ASAP Rocky - Fuckin Problem.

It's not, it just sounds like lots of other baroque music. I think it's just stock music.

This song keeps popping into my head... its from the early 90's, not grunge, but alternative rock. I made a quick video to approximate the sound. Its not Who Was In Room Last Night, the tempo in the video is pretty close to what the song is like. The high part isn't guitar in the song I think, pretty machine-ish sound to it.

Ta gueule, laisse-moi finir.
Trying to find this one song I liked but lost last month. I mostly just remember the music video.

Probably 90's or early 2000's. Male singer-songwriter, looked like he was in his late 20's, glasses, brown hair, not super handsome. I remember looking him up on wikipedia and he'd only made like one album, but I think I had heard of his name before so it was probably pretty popular. In the video he is in a dark room looking out a window.

The track was folky and low-key, sort of sad and had a line that had something to do with children and the future. The melody was picked on a guitar I think.

e. it was While You Were Sleeping by Elvis Perkins.

You can't cry when you're too tough to die.
It's electronic music, and a girl sings "IIIIII, (na-na-nana-na-na) babyyyy".

Sounds more or less like this:

Mr Lonely makes sense given the title of the song, maybe that's what I'm remembering it from. Though I'm pretty sure I remember that specific part being played on guitar in a similar fashion (not in the Mr Crowley way though).

There was this song I heard while flipping through the channels and accidentally catching "SyFY" for one of their originals (which of course I forgot the title of. :doh:) It was sort of post-shoegaze Curve style music. Like Garbage with a male singer in falsetto.

I'd normally dismiss this, but a lyric caught my attention. (Not exactly this, considering Google isn't helping, but it's too weird for me not to be pretty close.)

"Where can I find a butt like this? I'm trying to find an rear end that I want to have."

Brian Molko sings in an otherworldly whine, "Little Mo" is probably the only prominent falsetto song Placebo's done and they didn't start doing much Curve-ish stuff until Black Market Music.

And I could've just said "no" right there.

What's the song that starts at 12:15 in this video: http://vimeo.com/53457437? (NOTE: I have to click play and wait five seconds or so before I click that space on the timeline in Chrome/Firefox to get it to load at that time. Sorry -- Vimeo doesn't allow direct linking to the time since it's progressive download rather than streaming.)

The video is a critic talking about Culture Club, but the song sounds like it's from a shoegaze band that has the Kevin Shields guitar sound down pretty well. Pretty sure I'd recognize it if were an MBV song. Maybe The Horrors or some post rock band?

I heard this song on the radio the other day, and unfortunately I can't remember a single drat lyric from it (otherwise I'd have googled it).

Things I know about it:

It had either a girl singer or a guy with a girly voice.

It sounded almost like something M83, Passion Pit, or Grouplove would do.

The chorus was very repetitive, with maybe the same sentence being said over and over. Towards the end of the song the singer repeated the sentence a good 7-10 times.

I scoured the radio station's playlists and have been frustratingly unsuccessful so far. If anyone can help me with what little info I've been able to give out I'd be super appreciative.

I'll give Grooveshark a try, didn't think about that!

Zogo and SARS Volta: Thanks, but it's not them either! I know I gave like almost no useful information out. :(

I don't think it's from Grouplove, M83, GOTYE, Florence + The Machine, Metric, Passion Pit, Blondfire, or Joy Formidable, which sucks because those are really the only bands I know that it could have been.

I was hoping you fine folk could help me out with providing me with the singer who might have been behind a particular song.

I don't have a film clip, or can even remember how the song goes but here is what I remember the film clip looking like. I think the year would have been early to mid 2000's as the quality was pretty good.

It was a fat black woman, in a classy (I think ballroom) dress. I remember the colour being yellow. She looks like she is on a date, and she is eating lots of food and dancing. She stood out in my mind as she looked like she had a lot of attitude and sassy.

It was fairly poppy, and the video clip was on an MTV equivalent in Australia.

I really doubt anyone will be able to work out what this is. But it's been burning at the back of my head for years.

I must have had a brain stroke or something, because for the life of me I cannot find this song, nor can I find anything about it.

I've searched around on Grooveshark and found similar bands / songs, and I've even emailed the radio station that played it, but to no avail. The listing of songs they gave me doesn't have the song I heard.

I'll probably hear it sooner or later on the radio again, but who knows when! Thanks for the suggestions you gave me though guys.

Oh, well of course, everything looks bad if you remember it.
While I was traveling through Winnipeg for business, I stopped in this steakhouse called Chop where they were playing all of this seemingly top 40 music--Foster the People, Maroon 5, etc.

And then there was one song that came on... female singer, downtempo electronic beat--sounded like it could've been done by Cut Copy or Junior Boys. Couldn't really recognize the voice and thought it might've been someone new, or very well Canadian for that matter that I wouldn't have had the chance to hear before. Wish I could've made out some of the lyrics because then I would've done the obvious Google search.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
