If not that one, you can probably find it in that user's other videos. Or the related videos, or just in a search for "Ren & Stimpy music"; there's quite a variety of famous old library music associated with the show.

Maybe it's the bad recording equipment, but the style of the synth reminds me a lot of an Ulrich Schnauss song.

I don't know much about the song itself but I remember seeing a music video posted on here within the last 3-4 years of a girl doing a live show wearing a Dracula/vampire cape and undulating around the stage violently (playing a keyboard I think). Electronic/synthesizer style IIRC. I thought it was kind of funny but some people didn't like the music. She seemed to be an underground artist with somewhat of a following.

We need Dragon-type Pokemon to help us prepare our food before we cook it. We're not sure why!

I watched a music video from YouTube a few weeks ago for a really dark-sounding electronic song (doomcore?). The video involved a pixelated slaughterhouse with people and cows walking in a line, focusing on this one person who was turning part-cow every now and again. Then near the end they transform into a big minotaur and start killing everything. Aesthetic-wise, it's all mostly black on brownish-orange, and nothing but pixels.

I'm trying hard not to sound like I enjoyed it, since it's so gloomy. :smithicide:

If I remember right, there weren't a lot of complicated words in the title or the artist, but that's everything I can really make out.

Nope, sorry, it sounds nothing like that song. I went through an "oh wow look at me listening to obscure goth music" phase in highschool and I'm sure this song is from that, but... too obscure to be found, apparently. But I was so sure it was just plain called "Bell, Book, and Candle." As in the title!

I've been thinking about this a bit more and found this album (http://www.allmusic.com/album/unquiet-grave-2000-mw0000068403). Track 12 is "Bell Book & Candle" by Stare (there should be a sample available at that link). Is this the song you remembered?

This will be just about the most vague description ever because i only remember listening to this song on youtube last summer. It is a post rock sounding band but thre are lyrics...the only lyrics i can remember are something like "eeeeeeee.... I know, iiiiiiiiii knoowww.". It was the bands most viewed video i think, and the picture (which i believe was the album cover) was of a sunset or a sunny lake or something along those lines. i think the band name started with 'c' but I'm not totslly sure on that. If there is a site that lets you record a short melody on a keyboard i could play the main guitar part.... It mostly repeats itself.

Ifi recall correctly, most of their other songs had more of a metal or hard rock vibe. It may even be this one artist who makes music entirely by himself... He used to make mostly metsl but then released an album last year online that was much different and more relaxed... Either way i would like this guy's name as well if anyone can think of him. I have a bad habit of finding new music i love and then forgetting it before i get a chance to buy it.

Edit - i got lucky and someone mentioned the band in a recent page of the post rock thread. Once i saw the band name it clicked. The song is let yourself be huge by cloudkicker... Im amazed that i was as close as i was in my description

There's either this car commercial, or a commercial for Verizon, that features what I can only describe as upbeat country dubstep. I can't really describe it beyond that, but there's some sort of catchy banjo business going on, and also wubs.

I remember hearing a song when I was around 11 or 12 (2000 or so) I want to think it was some sort of "trucker" song. Part of the song had lyrics similar to "...gave me a caffeine pill but it turned out to be the real lucile" and something about the singer of the song meeting someone who "turned out to be a real good buddy".

Not a great description but a friend of mine at the time had it on a mixed CD someone had copied for him and I was thinking it would be easy to come up with on google but no luck.

The artist in question is Ray Carlisle and the song is called "Passin' Thru". I found the lyrics on a trucker forum, actually: here.

I just found an unlabelled mix CD someone made for me, and I can't figure out what one of the songs is. It's a ska track, and the chorus and verses keep mentioning "six white horses." Another lyric that I'm sure of (some of the words aren't too clear) is "I still look and I still smell and I still act the same as I did when I spoke your name." The guy I got the CD from was big into local bands from his home state of New Jersey, so they may or may not be a NJ third-wave ska band. Thanks!

I can post it if someone reminds me of a good imgur-like site to upload mp3s.

This is probably a ridiculously long shot but yesterday on Q radio there was a weird song with the chorus starting with "give it up, give it up give it up..." and then I couldn't hear the rest of the lyrics over my mates incessant drunken ramblings. It had a rather up-tempo style and the guy was singing with what seemed like a southern faux-london accent.

It sounded like it could have come straight out of the late eighties/early 90s, a little like Madness. Though I have no idea what time period it actually came from.

The first two people I thought of when you said "faux-London accent" were

http://youtu.be/AcwIkNhT7-k Professor Green "Astronaut"

and

http://youtu.be/z8ecLy9axAQ The King Blues "Does Anyone Care About Us"

I'm loathe to suggest the second one on account of the singer being a disgrace of a human being, but you can't help what you hear on the radio.

Nah, it wasn't very rap-like at all. It was much more akin to Madness, in fact i'd of thought it was something out of the 80s-90s if it wasnt for the fact that my music recognition app didn't recognise it. Implying it was rather new.

This seems like a long shot, but does anyone remember a midi file (or an mp3 with midi style instruments) with a very flamboyant/exuberant instrumental version of 'My girl'? It was pretty long, and maybe I have a vague idea that I came across it on somethingawful years and years ago - and I think it was set to autoplay when viewing a linked page.

edit: aha found it! It wasn't 'My Girl', it was 'Pretty Woman', and it was on a Jeff K page. Unfortunately it's not as funny now as when I was 15.
