I know none of the lyrics to this song but it was recently in a movie and is in a foreign language. Has a beat similar to Ida Maria and has a guy singing. It's on XM a lot. WTF IS IT?

I've been trying in vain for years to find a song where the lyrics I can remember is (and even these maybe slightly or even completely off) "Everybody is scared of the bomb-a". I remember hearing it around 2000-2001. There was also a video in which I distinctly remember there being a ship. Forgive me if these details are vague, but I was like 7 at the time.

Hello thread. I hope that you all can help me with this one. I heard this Zappa song about a year ago, and immediately recognized it as having been sampled by either Madlib or MF Doom [I'm pretty sure]. I've been looking for it for quite some time, but have yet to uncover a satisfactory answer. I've found a short snippet of the track sampled on Madvillian - Madvillainy 2 - Never Go Pop [the version of this track on Youtube has its last 20 seconds cut off, where the sample occurs], but I am almost sure that there is a more extensive use of it elsewhere within their discography. Thanks a lot goons.

I have been hearing a song on the radio here in the UK recently. It is sung by a female singer and the chorus consists of her singing 'some people do x, some people y, some people z' and so forth. It is driving me crackers because I can't remember any more lyrics than that.

I was listing to the Das Racist album and the track "nutmeg" had a sample in it I recognized. The song is a take on Ghostface Killah's nutmeg, found here. The sample I'm talking about is at the very begging of the song and repeats through much of it, but I recognize it from some other more recent song I've been listening to lately and I can't for the life of me remember which song it is. I'm sure the sample itself is pretty old, but does anyone know of any more recent songs that use it? I feel like whatever song I'm trying to think of came out at least somewhat recently.

The sample is from "It's Over" by Eddie Holman, which was also used in the Puff Daddy song "What You Gonna Do?", but that's not a particularly recent song, given that he was still Puff Daddy when it came out (1997).

Anyone remember one horrible 90s eurodance / europop female artist who had an album that was called something like Mirrors? I think the music video of the hit song on that album had the woman walking in a white robe in some sort of dark, blue hued forest. The album art was something like this: I remember clearly that it had some sort of stylized face on the front with a dark blue back ground. It may've resembled sun or some star too.

It was Champion by Chipmunk feat. Chris Brown. And it wasn't a female singer. I was hearing it over other sounds though from quite a distance. Also I have terrible taste in music.

Ok, here's an oldish one: I started watching 21 Jump Street, and there's a song I really like in the second episode of season 1 (on Hulu; about 19:51). It almost sounds faith no more-ish. Any ideas? Shazam couldn't get it :/

I heard this song in a thrift store then in an Urban Outfitters. The guy's voice sounds just like the guy from The National, but I don't think it's him. It's sparse instrumentally -- just organs and reverb, I think -- the vocal melody is really catchy and kind of drives it. Feels like Depeche Mode meets The National. The organs and everything feel really electronic/synthy than organic. I can't remember the words to well at all, but I think he repeats the verses quite a bit. Something like "went down on the ground" or "fell down on the ground" and at the end he repeats something like "played by heart" or "play my heart". I went on Urban Outfitter's site and it's not on any of their streaming things. Any ideas?

Just wanted to share with everyone that the song I was looking for is called "Telstar" by the Tornados. Also, if you know the melody to a song, or have a small sample like I did, this site kicks rear end. It's found the artist for every song I've hummed, sung, or played a sample of. Probably wouldn't work for obscure stuff, but I haven't tried playing it any Hella or weird poo poo like that. (fake edit: no results when I played it Hella or Behold..., or the song from the Vegas video, but for well-known stuff that you can't place it's perfect.)

It looks like they're extremely early on -- whatever you're hearing on the radio is a promo single and their website says an album isn't coming until summer.

Coming back to add...so, now the next question is, how does someone who's evidently so new/obscure/cutting edge that she doesn't have a Wiki page yet end up on the Muzak at a mall in Decatur, Illinois? She must be doing something right, I guess. Airtime courtesy of Muzak is still airtime. You go, girl. Fig Newton fucked around with this message at 06:54 on Feb 9, 2011 |

This is probably about as obscure as it gets, but I figure it can't hurt to try... Several years ago, I heard an audio track on a college radio station. It wasn't actually music, it was composed of a girl with a really spacey demeanor narrating a story. In the story, she was talking about taking part in an experiment. She mentioned that the researchers for the experiment instructed her to be very careful driving home, and to make sure to sleep with a metal plate under her tongue every night while the experiment is ongoing. She said something like "on the third night, I forgot to sleep with the metal plate under my tongue." Ring any bells? edit: One more mega-obscure question. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkFpwprABhQ What is the source of the sample at the beginning of this song? cormorant fucked around with this message at 09:59 on Feb 9, 2011 |

I was in a shop today and they were playing a cover of 'Don't Stop Til You Get Enough' by Michael Jackson, which was sung by a female vocalist, and was very chilled out and downtempo, but I cannot for the life of me find out who it was. It wasn't one of those dodgy compilations where they're too cheap to pay the royalties for the real songs, and it wasn't the versions by Shivaree or Melissa Forbes, I already tried those. Can anyone help?

Nope, sorry. It was even more downtempo than that, more 'dreamy' is the best way to describe it I guess... the production sounded like Sigur Ros or something, with a very fragile sounding female vocal. I had no phone signal in the shop, or I could have Shazamed it, and the staff had no idea what it was either. Thanks anyway.

Trying to help a friend find a song for a funeral of her cousins, its a song he apparently sung all the time. Old rock song, she thinks theres lyrics in it that include "days of time", "and upon you", and "never gonna know how it feels". Google search has been fruitless.

It's a fairly well-known song from the '80s. It's built around a really simple guitar lick, and the lyrics are like "Ah ah ah hAAAAAAAAaaaaha You know this, notice". Those words are stand-ins for similar sounding ones, other than the "Ah ah ha" part. It sounds very slow-dance-at-the-prom.
