This one may be too ambiguous.

A few months ago, I found a youtube video of a bald (maybe balding) white guy (sort of chunky I guess) performing live on a small stage. The song had a bit of a hip hop vibe to it, even though it probably wasn't hip hop in the truest sense. The verses were very dissonant and odd, but the chorus was slightly catchy (and also kind of dissonant).

The guy had very strange mannerisms, almost as if he was completely wasted, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't. He was just sort of stumbling awkwardly and making strange faces.

I really I have no idea on lyrics, but if I had to guess, the chorus was something like..

"And I could buy new clothes
And I could ....... <something that rhymes with clothes>
And I could..... <something that rhymes with clothes>"

I'm not sure if that's even right, but for some reason him starting each line in the chorus with "And I could" or maybe "If I could" or "And they can" or.. something... ugh..

Just a wild guess but it could be Sage Francis, does he look familiar?

i was in the music store the other day and heard a guy playing a lick on the bass that sounded incredibly familiar. i haven't been able to get it out of my head since then, but i can't place where it's from. it sounds like it might be a stanley clarke riff, but i can't think of any songs that sound like it, so who knows.

i played a couple bars of it and uploaded it here -- if anybody has any ideas, i'd be real grateful

Does an uncensored version of Jay-Z's "Streets Is Watching" exist? I've downloaded about 10 different .mp3s on P2P networks, I've downloaded it from several different torrent sites, and I just now bought it from the iTunes Store, and the version labeled [EXPLICIT] is definitely still censored. Anybody know what the deal is?

The first censored line is: Look, if I shoot you, I'm brainless/But if you shoot me, you're famous, what's a [nigga] to do?

Help! :mad:

e: Apparently an uncensored version doesn't exist, from what I can find. :(

I remember a video for a song that I'd like to identify. In the video we see a surreal setting. There's a guy or a girl dancing with, I believe, an elephant head looking gasmask thing among other things. Very odd, surreal.

It's housemusic. Sounded a bit dreamy if I remember correctly. That's all I got, sorry.

I was in a bar and heard a very Weezeresqe song that had a chorus that SEEMED to go:

Maaaaandy, I [something], [something unintelligible] followed by a riff. I know this is a really poor clue, but it was a pretty cool song! I've heard it a few times and I think it's maybe a few years old.

I saw a video from this rock and roll band where some dudes are drinking beer in a car, and then they see some guys cosplaying (I don't know if that's the correct term) and decide to start chasing them... or something like that, I can't really remember, but I'm sure there is a lot of beer drinking in the video. The video seems to be made fairly recent.

It would be loving awesome if somebody can help me out to identify the band. Thanks.

I've got two requests: one I had posted a good while back but was still curious about, the other from a more recent tune.

Dinictus, a while ago, posted:

A post in Games had a replay on C&C Red Alert 3 which had some pretty good music to it.

SpelledBackwards posted:

Someone made a video of it. To clarify on Casao's spoiler above me, he actually parks the MCV behind the airfield, sells the MCV to get an engineer, and uses it to try and capture the airfield. No real "blowing up", per se.
I was wondering if anyone knew what it was.


Second song comes from the movie Hancock, about 5 minutes in. I recall this being used in quite a few mashups, including one featuring Missy Elliott, but I'll be damned if I know what the original is. A clip of it can be listened here.
I'm an idiot. It's a sample used in 45 King's The 900 Number, from Marva Whitney's Unwind Yourself.

Alright, I have to ask again since this is going to drive me nuts. The context is that I got this from some scam CD that was supposed to be the Audioslave "Civilan Demoes", but it was just some CDR. I like this song though, so I kept it, but it's not Audioslave.

http://iug.macscene.net/temp/Monstereo45.mp3
45 seconds, 1.0 megs.

Let me go and get my last post quoted here for the info on it.

quote:

I got this from a (transcoded) Audioslave CD. It was a bootleg "Civilian Project" CD featuring their demos. While the demos were legit, some of the songs were just Temple Of The Dog songs. However, this one song cannot possibly be them. It doesn't sound like the music of Audioslave/RATM/Soundgarden/TOTD. And that's sure not Chris Cornell singing. Trying to search for the lyrics only brings up more people talking about trying to figure out who this song is done by, or this song labeled as an Audioslave song.

The CD cover art was just a poorly modified Photoshop, and the CD was probably just a CDR with an inkjet printing on it. Someone at Waffles.fm helped me confirm it was a transcode, so I sent it back to the seller on eBay.

Ok, this may be kind of tough, but here goes.

I saw this video in a bar tonight, the song was a sort of celtic-sounding techno song. The video was about some sort of sorcerer with big horns (it might have been the sorcerer's hair) leading a boy on puppet strings through the forest and shooting green magic all over the place. A girl with a bright red poofy bowl cut sees the boy and falls in love, I guess. She distracts the sorcerer by shooting what looked like a bee with a crocodile head out of a slingshot. This distracts the sorcerer long enough for the girl to cut the boy's strings, but he catches them leaving and starts firing magic at them. I forget how it ended.

I couldn't make out the name of the artist or the song because the bar tv was fuzzy. The artist looked like "Gwetzy" or something, and the song was two words and the first started with k. I know it's not much to go on, but hopefully someone can help.

At the end of this Simpsons episode there's a version of I Put A Spell On You by Screamin' Jay Hawkins that (as far as I can recall) doesn't sound like the one on his Best Of. It's way more mellow and as far as I remember there aren't the backing singers going "ooo, spell". I was a lot more impressed with how his insane voice contrasted with the calm backing of the song.

Can anyone point me in the direction of that version? I know there were two versions but neither that I've heard sound like the one at the end of this episode.

I'm looking for a slow funk song, probably from the 70s. It sounds a lot like Brothers Johnson or Aaron Neville and the main chorus is two or three words repeated a lot. To me, the words sound like 'Lovin' You, Lovin' You, Lovin' You', ...' in the chorus. The line repeated is definitely three syllables, though. There are also multiple voices in the chorus.

Overall, it's pretty mellow, and I've definitely heard it before. It may have been on a commercial--for some reason I'm thinking Burger King when about 5 - 10 years ago before the King showed up.

The tempo isn't deathly slow or anything like some funk can be. It's definitely driving, but not by any means fast. Probably around 110bpm or so.

Going through my collection as we speak...

I was in an HMV the other day and I heard this song that had a sort of obnoxious new electro sort of beat. The vocals sounded female, but they were definitely pitch-altered at least subtly, I think, so I guess they could conceivably been male. Anyway the lyrics of the song were what intrigued me--they were almost entirely just lines from other famous old rap songs, like Sugarhill Gang, Grandmaster Flash, etc., and some more recent references as well. Anyone know what song this was?

Ok, I've got one that isn't so much a "identify this" but more of a "where can I find this?"

Back when Nicktoons first started (sunday mornings when it was only Doug, Rugrats, and Ren & Stimpy) there was a commercial that featured a Nicktoons rap. The only words I remember go as follows:

"...Doug, Rugrats and the Ren and Stimpy show. Yo, here we go, because we got a lot in store..." and then it went to a fast part that all rhymed, and had the line "a chilly dog" and showed either Ren or Spike (from Rugras) shivering from being cold. Does anyone else remember this? Youtube has nothing...

"That must weigh heavily on your soul. Let me purge it for you."
One of the few songs I liked from the Games Workshop store music that I have not been able to track down, unfortunately it's been a while since I heard it and only the most memorable parts to me stick in my mind. I guess you might describe it as post-grunge or alt-metal, the most notable parts would be the lyrics "I still believe" in the chorus and the riff that opens the track and is repeated at the end of each chorus, played without backing from the other instruments, which is obviously hard to describe without humming or something. It alternated regularly between a slow and quick beat.

Not a lot to go on, I'm afraid, but if anyone with better ears than I spent much time in Games Workshop stores a few years back they might know it.

Tell me, small fry, have you ever heard of the golden Triumph Forks?
This was an electro-house track from 2005/2006 with uplifting synths and female vocal chorus along the lines of "so phy-si-cal, you know it feels so good" (mondegreen alert). The kind of tune that would fit into a 16 Bit Lolitas set, unfortunately I only heard it once or twice so that's about the best description I can come up with. Googling the lyrics every 6 months has proved fruitless since they're pretty generic really.
