Trying to ID a snippet that’s been in my head for about a year now. I made a very poor go at it in GarageBand:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/9keghdtopf3xgg3/earworm.mp3?dl=0

It’s not the Brooklyn 99 theme (or The Ides of March by Vehicle, where the B99 horns come from). It has an Ocean’s Eleven/Snatch soundtrack feel but I’ve rewatched those and it’s not there. The guitar is more bow-wikka-chukka in my head than I could get in GB. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for a song that I remember being titled "the last thing on my mind" but plugging that into YouTube is leading me nowhere. I believe it was about the narrator falling asleep at the wheel and dying in a car wreck

trying to remember a song, all I remember is the basic sense of the music video

80s R&B, duet between two singers, a woman and a man

the video has them singing in a park, and they take cover from the rain under a brick bridge and continue singing

I don't think it's Teddy Pendergrass, but my brain keeps telling me it is.

Ashford & Simpson “Solid”

Okay, this is a dancy pop song with female vocals. Near the end there's a brief spoken word section that ends with the woman saying, "...A FORGERY?!" That's all I have to go on, sorry.

This site is pretty great for finding songs if you only know a word or two.

Techno-ish song, female vocalist. The part I remember is where she’s singing (almost speaking more than singing) “I want it, I want it, I want it, give it to me” or something like that. Maybe it’s “I need it” or “give it to me” or something else but she repeats it 3 times and then says a different thing for the fourth line. The music in this part drops to minimal beeps and boops I think.

Thanks, that’s a good one but what I’m thinking of is a lot more low key than that one.

Maybe that was it? I’m honestly not sure how it got even in my head, maybe at a Supercuts or something. The lyrics don’t match exactly what I was remembering but the tone is there. Thanks!

There’s a link to a track list on the soundcloud page. https://www.deephouseamsterdam.com/dha-fm-mix-465-by-robag-wruhme/

Is it Moonrider from Ada?

Something like this?

Try searching for songs with a melodica. There were a ton of them in the 80s.

No combination of any googling has helped me find this song that's stuck in my head. The lead singer is a male with a gravelly voice and a southern accent. The chorus is something like, "Fire, fire fire fiiii-yahhh! Burning in the streets." and during the bridge he sings, "No they can't take your soul." I could have sworn the band's name or the song title had August or Georgia somewhere in it.

Love Comes Quickly by Pet Shop Boys is the first that comes to my mind.

The version by This Mortal Coil (featuring Kim Deal and Tanya Donnelly) is one of my favorite songs. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YwRzdCkzRHE
