If I had to pick when it was from I'd say most likely from the late 70's - early 80's but it could be very off either way. The song starts with an electric organ solo that repeats once before getting into the song proper with drums, guitar, lyrics etc and has a solo male vocalist with a very slightly raspy voice (I don't think they're old, it's just how they sing). Could it be "Bloody Well Right" by Supertramp? Not an exact match to your description but it was the first thing that occurred to me when I read that it opens with an electric organ (well, piano in this case) solo played twice.

Can anyone help me identify an album cover? There's this fairly famous album cover (might be a back cover) which I think is from a live album from the 1970s where it's a shot of the audience from the stage, and they're all pressed right up against the edge of the stage, reaching out toward the photographer, who must have been lying on his stomach or something to take the picture?

So this might be a long shot. It had a female singer, maybe two, I think it was in French, and it had the singer going "duh... duh... duh" sort of like someone stuttering, not in a particularly musical way. That is pretty much all I remember about it, sorry.

The song I need help finding I believe is quite new. It was out this year or last year - it is so hard to find though as it only has one set of lyrics I think. It is a club/dance kind of song but the only words in it is a black dude saying "make some noise" every now and again, followed by beat drops that sound like dubstep beats. Not much to go on, but any ideas?

going 100% crazy trying to remember the name of a music video on youtube. it was electronic music, kinda dark and slow, and the video was all low fi VHS video cut together. at the start there was a dashcam recording of a car hitting a deer while a voice in the background said "emily" louder and louder, and after that the music began. another clip used in it was a degraded VHS recording of a killer whale at a water park or whatever swimming around.

I asked in the CSpam election thread because thats where I saw it posted first but that thread moves too quick. It was posted in that thread multiple times and the music video features a girl working in a printing facility where the lyrics to the song (which are fairly repetitive) are being printed out. The video alternates between her being bored at the job and her trashing the place. If I remember correctly the song is by a male electronic artist featuring female vocals. Lyrics might have something to do with being/running free but I might be way off. Anyone got a clue?

There's a kind of old top-40 pop song stuck in my head. I feel like I heard this song on easy listening radio stations in the oughts. It has a woman vocalist and the hook goes something like "because i'm not going to love again / if you're not going to try." (as a note, I'm very, very bad at remembering lyrics. I've googled these lyrics and variations on them and nothing is coming up) When I get home, I'll hum a few bars on vocaroo. I'm really not great at music at all in any sense, so it's probably going to be really bad sounding.

I've heard a pop song released within the past few months (I think) that I haven't been able to find the name/artist of given a few lyrics It's a female vocalist/singing group, and beginning of the song is a instrumental vaguely brass sounding thing until the vocalist goes "oh oh OH". The chorus has "what's wrong with me" repeated quite a bit.

This is a piece of background music in an episode of The Apprentice UK, season 5 episode 5. https://clyp.it/d20dcqxb I know I have heard this music used before. Most likely in a documentary? Or possibly a film or other reality TV show. It's possible it might just be some stock music from somewhere so tracking it down will be impossible.

No that's not it. I think it's older than that and meant to sound "exotic" like it's from another country or time period.

First thing that came to mind was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9toMoL8fW-4 The melody on top is a fair bit different so I'd imagine it's just a happy coincidence. edit: Actually, having remembered the name Triumvirat, I think they did a song that partly inspired a bit of 'Dancing Mad' from Final Fantasy 6. Maybe a tad more than a coincidence here then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxBQPcfFJnM Wrath of Mordark fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Dec 5, 2016 |

I mean more than 100 years old, it's not Mission Impossible. I'm pretty sure I've heard similar music in movies and games (besides Metroid).

The very start (the first second in particular) of Kylie's Better the Devil You Know really reminds me of something else but I can't think what. I'm sure it's in my iTunes library too so I've been clicking around like daft with no luck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10P_ybz5YTI I want to say it's an Aphex Twin track (might be something on an album, might be one of the many Soundcloud tracks he posted recently) or something else instrumental and Warp-y. That said, I might be way off and it turns out to be a Eurythmics song or something. Think a very similar keyboard riff repeats a little before a beat comes in.

Och, I found it in my iTunes after all - D'Arcangelo - Diagram VII (80s Mix). Bit of an obscure one although it was on Rephlex, hence the Aphex Twin connection in my head. Thanks though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bypkkkZuRlw

There was a music video in the 90s with a man and a woman and one of them had their head on a giant toy robot? The woman was singing and she sounded like the vocals on Action Radar by the Prodigy. Edit: This looks and sounds nothing like what I was remembering but I'm going to assume it's what I was thinking of unless there were two videos with a guy's head on a toy robot: https://vimeo.com/76766181 Pilchenstein fucked around with this message at 00:21 on Dec 12, 2016 |

There's this one song I heard in a record shop...I asked the clerk what it was, but he couldn't tell me for some reason. Wasn't sure "what stream" it was coming from, he said. Anyway, it was this catchy funk/soul tune with horns. The main lyric went something like "Ain't no tellin a lie" or "Ain't no tellin why." I couldn't tell which. But I know the last word was drawn out, like "a lieeee" or "whyyyy."

DrTempest posted:Floorplan, Tell You No Lie? Hmmm, nope. But thanks for the offering. It sounded like something from the 60s or 70s, and the lead singer was a black (probably American) male. I have some more lyrics, too, snippets that I tried to take down with my phone. The song also went "Don't worry cause I know you're mine" and "I need you around" and "take my hand."
