when they're yours you'll love them
This July at a country fair in Wisconsin, I heard a local band sing a song about "friends." The lyrics were a little off and everyone younger than me started laughing. I asked my cousin about the song, and apparently it's a rather vulgar rap song with "friends" replacing every instance of the word "gently caress," and that the "friends" edit is well-known. I tried searching Snoop Dogg, who I think was the original artist, but he has another song called "Friends" so I'm not getting anywhere.

I'd like to pair the "friends" edit with Cee-Lo's "gently caress You" for my class. Anyone know what the friends I'm talking about?

Just heard at song at Uniqlo that I'm trying to identify.

It is an instrumental, modern song that reminds me of Air or any simple, non-dance electronic piece. There are drums, bass, Strat-like guitar, and various synth sounds. The beat is pretty much a standard rock beat with randomly scattered accents on the hi-hats. It's not really danceable--more driving. As for the drums, they were recorded very cleanly. The chords sound like they're going through a circle but I couldn't identify the root or anything. The guitar was super clean--no distortion or fuzz or anything like that. There was also a moderate amount of delay on it. It wasn't so much a dance song as it was driving. As for the guitar lines, they were very math rock and syncopated and sort of 'The Police'-like. As for the structure, it starts off with the drum beat and instruments build up on top of that. Song lasted about 4' from what I can tell.

I wish I could be of more help, but that's all I've got. Thanks in advance.

It sounds like it might be Holy gently caress. If you aren't familiar with them, pretty much that whole description fits them ultra accurately except that don't actually have a guitar player, but they often have synths that they use in place of a guitar, so maybe?

Thanks for the help, but what I heard earlier doesn't seem to jibe with the 10 or so songs I've demoed from these guys. Holy gently caress seems too aggressive, whereas I'm looking for something way softer.

There's a DnB song playing RIGHT NOW in the Liquid DnB channel on https://www.di.fm.

It's a sort of liquid funk song with trumpets as the main hook. And I think a voice says "hold you tight" and "so long."

The track list on di.fm claims it's "Ruse - Bass City Rollers," which looks to be a mixed set.

I found that uploaded here:

http://soundcloud.com/ruse/bass-city-rollers-mixed-by-ruse

But I can't find the song anywhere on that.

I've heard this song like three times on this station and I can never find it. Thanks if you can help.

On some Syfy movie playing right now, there was a scene with a song, with the lyrics, "Such a sin they way you look at me with those eyes", and "Maybe someday you can live where you've been"

There's a song that used to come on the oldies station here that was kind of ambient and instead of singing there was a monologue, like a poem being dictated. Google isn't helping me much either.

Presumably you mean something like "Everybody's free to wear sunscreen"

It was more of a surreal poem and for some reason I always associated it with Nights in White Satin so it's probably something close to psychedelic.

It would come on the oldies station so it was probably from the 60's and the voice was fairly powerful and a little stern.

Was it creepily patriotic in any way? There were several of those in the '60s, like Day for Decision. Otherwise, how about Desiderata or the Telly Savalas, uh, classic, If.

This sounds very Jim Morrison. I don't know The Doors well enough to specify a song, but all signs are pointing in their direction.

Okay goons, I desperately need your help.
For the last couple of years I have been trying to find out the name of a particular song. It came out late 90's/early 00's I think. The video clip was of a group of people out in the African savannah, painted up as native animals, and at the end of the clip they all jumped into this lagoon and the paint washed off. I've been trying to figure it out for the last couple of years but no amount of Googling has yielded any results.

I'm going on an extreme long shot here and expect no results but I'll try anyways...

An 80s song, not a major hit, female singer with a relatively deep voice, kind of new wave. It has a lyrics in the chorus something like: "she [syllable] [syllable] [pause] flow-ers....."

And it's not a Streisand song. I can't remember anything more than that. I know it's hardly anything to go by, but I'm hoping someone is familiar enough with it that that basic description will trigger some recognition.

Heard a song while driving back from a friend's house, and it goes roughly like

guitar line (in the key of D, I think) over a recording of...something. the recording has some human voices, I know. One of them is a child's voice, possibly babbling
A glitchy, somewhat dubstep-ish percussion track/layer comes in for about a minute.
The percussion stops, leaving the guitar line with some string underscore and a recording of two men; one of them says something like, "let's get that poo poo".
That sequence basically repeats, but at the end the recording of the men continues. one of them says "11:27" and the other guy says "OK"

That should be easy enough for those who know the song.

This has been bothering me for some time now: A Techno song, from somewhere between '95 and '99, It has an industrial and orchestral sound to it and a sinister feel. There is a prominent piano segment that is a real earworm. Appart from radio, the only time I remember hearing it is from some TV-Spot for the Michael Douglas movie "The Game".

In the film "Au Revoir Les Enfants," what is the name of the piano piece that the boys play during their lessons? The credits dont credit it, and google searches are turning up nothing.

Edit: Ah well nevermind, I just needed to listen to more of the credited song, the part they play in the lesson is in there.

There was a music video that someone posted awhile back of a New Orleans esque band that had a heavy set singer. I think he had a cane? The video was really dark and had some light bulbs hanging around on a wooden stage. The singer sounded like the boogy man from Nightmare Before Christmas.

'90s (?) pop song (at least the drum sounds are too good for the '80s), hook goes "something's going on" or "there's something going on". Only other lyric I can remember is "my baby (doing x)". I was thinking Madonna but dunno really.

OK goons, I find myself seeking your help, since my normal lyric websites and Google have failed me.

The song is hardcore punk, probably 80's or early 90's. Out of the lyrics I have:

"I'd like to introduce myself to me
I'm my own worst enemy.
You must destroy the things you love
Otherwise they hurt too much."

Thanks, goons.
