I might not even recognise this song if somebody manages to figure out what it is, but I'm looking for a song that was popular last October or November. It played on 94.7 in Portland a few times and I thought for sure that it was Interpol but the DJ said otherwise. There may have been a line about cutting or bleeding or the beach or killing his girlfriend. Sorry it's so vague, but I can assure you that whoever it was sounded almost EXACTLY like Interpol.

I'm pretty sure you're talking about she wants revenge.

I'm trying to remember the name of a female musician. I think she's European and she has an odd name. I believe I've heard people say she makes progressive rock. Tall, skinny, dark hair. Not well known, but it seems like goons like her.

As a help for my previous song, I heard it mixed together with "Get Low" by Lil Jon

Edit: It was "No more conversations" by freeform five

Its not everyday that one's beliefs are tested. Nope, that happens on Tuesdays. Ye-hup, Tuesdays.
A friend of mine skipped over this song on the radio, and now the only part I remember fades in and out of my head. The song was acoustic, and the only lyrics I remember are part of the chorus (I have no idea where they fall within the chorus though, 'cept that they weren't the beginning, or at the end):

"We could take a ____ (drive or ride, I can't remember) together"

And thats it. I think the next line after that has something to do with "going to (town or downtown)" and "driving away forever"...maybe. The gist of the song seemed to be running away from home.

Now, I'm pretty sure I've heard this artist before. She had a hit a couple years ago (it was played on pop radio, something like Star 99.9). This song was also acoustic, and I also can only remember a few words, though this was not the chorus:

"I'm not looking for a man to (hug or squeeze) me, 'cause he might squeeze the life outta me".

I've googled these phrases so its probable these are nothing like the exact lyrics, but they are kinda close.

Hope someone can decipher that, and knows what the hell I'm talking about. Thanks in advance for trying!

This song has been driving me crazy for the past couple days because I suddenly remembered it for no particular reason. I don't think it was even very good, I just want to know what the hell it was.

I think it must've been from the late 90s, 2001 at the very latest because that's when I stopped listening to the radio. It played on a modern rock station - all I can remember is a dude screaming "you think you beat me, you think you beat me", while there's a female MC going "stupid-rear end sucka, such a bad motherfucka" in the background. Google turns up nothing.

It's the first song (not the technoish stuff at the begging, when the movie starts)

The only thing that comes to mind is like opera/lord of the rings but I don't even think that fits it too well. I'd like to find a lot more music like this, but have no idea where I'd even begin to start searching for related artist, seeing how I don't even know what genre it would be!

For anyone else wondering, "Composer and lyricist Rika Muranaka provided a song called "The Best is Yet To Come"[68] for the game's ending credits sequence.[69] The song is performed in Irish by Aoife Ní Fhearraigh" (from wikipedia)

I posted this in that small questions thread in Ask/Tell but didn't get an answer:

I'm looking for a song/music video.

It was fairly popular on MTVu in the early half of 2005. Simplified, the song was fairly straight rock. It was a black and white video. It had the band rocking out in a room, but the main focus of the video was a teenage-aged girl running around an eastern European town as the Nazis(?) invaded. At the end she stands in front of a tank, which shoots her down. The end of the video has a black screen with a dedication to a girl.

I believe the band's name was one word, and it might've started with a K or a C.
Perhaps it's Kashir?

I have a huge problem. A friend has placed a screen saver
I think I heard this song back in '98 or '99. Gothic metal with dual vocals - typical growly rasp by the male and mournful female singing. The song starts off all quiet and dreamlike with a soft melody and she sings at the beginning, before the male vocals kicks in (which is unintelligible of course). The female singing goes something like this "along the journey, into the warmth of your arms, and brings peaceful silence....comforts my miserable soul but I'm still on my own.."

I got a bad quality recording of it off a radio show and sadly, the tape's unusable now. I remember the DJ mentions the word 'Legion' and I've searched every bandname with the word 'Legion' in it but none of those bands have this song. I'm probably going on the wrong clue.

My metal brethren, please help!

I want to dig out a song I've heard a couple of times, but I've no idea what the hell it's called.

The song sounds like it was recorded in the fifties, or if not, it's got a sort of jokey forties/fifties upbeat style, and has been featured on a couple of adverts at least.

The chorus goes ..

'Goodbye! Goodbye! I'm missing you, skiddley-bye. Pom pom pom pom pom ta pom' and then the same line's repeated again. I've done websearches for various songs, including any called 'Goodbye' but draw a blank. Can anyone tell me what the song is called?

Googling for "Hippie in a Blender" and "Hippie in a Blunder" both return songs by someone called Johnny Buckett, and they seem to be talking about the same song, and "blunder" seems to be the right title. I couldn't really find anything more than mentions of the song though so I don't know how much it helps. It was apparently a single on Fortune Records.

Whatever whateva.
The song sounded like Bob Dylan (or more likely someone singing like a typical Dylan impression), while the music itself was kind of like funk.

Lyrics were something about, 'You feel guilty for telling me stories that you know just aren't true... but that's alright cause...'

I heard part of this on the radio and wouldn't mind checking it out. Would this have been a mashup/mix of some kind?

Okay, this is a happy hardcore/trancecore track. It has a female vocal (maybe british accented) speaking the following over a breakdown:

dance beneath the stars with me
a chance to dance with destiny
this place, us two can be as one
stepping closer to the sun

feeling nature's heavenly body
nothing can defy our electricity
what we have felt as one together
will be remembered forever

Not a song, but a band I found while browsing some site months ago and forgot about. I figured this didn't really deserve its own thread, and I'm hoping someone can figure out who I'm looking for. Here's what I know:

1. Almost certainly '70s (perhaps late '60s, but I don't think so) hard rock that sounded a bit like Atomic Rooster.
2. Probably British or otherwise European.
3. Reasonably sure the band's name began with "E," but not certain
4. Were possibly recently rereleased on one of those labels that specializies in forgotten obscurities. Is well-known enough to have a page with sound samples on AMG.
5. The cover of what I believe was their first album depicts a fat, female beast-like thing that reminds me of Grendel's mother. Pretty sure it was a black and white drawing.
6. Not Missus Beastly, Gift, or Missing Link

Damn, this is good coffee.
My question is about Kanye West's "Through the Wire."

I am convinced there are two versions of the song. One recorded right after the accident, and one re-recorded for the album release. He sounds significantly worse in the original. Additionally, there is a line change. What is "In the same hospital where Biggie Smalls died" in the album version of the song is "In the same hospital where Big and Tupac died" in the original version.

I am looking for this original version. If anyone knows where I can find it, I would really appreciate it.

So I packed up my Salvador Dali print of two blindfolded dental hygienists trying to make a circle on an Etch-a-Sketch and headed for California.
Ugh, this is a long shot. I heard this at a Tim Horton's and haven't been able to identify it.

It's an almost country-ish song with a refrain of something sounding like "so high" followed by something like "got me 'round and about". It's an upbeat song with a male singer, and the note on "high" is, well, ridiculously high, and sung in full voice. Possibly around C...

I've been wondering what song this was so I could listen to this guy's voice.

At 1:11? That sounds like random cartoon score to me. The bands back in the day played the scores live, so this could have been a part written by the composer to show suspense or action.

Unless you were talking about the part before the mailman came.
