I think this song is from an English group but the lyrics I think are:

You say we should go out, I say we should go out so lets go out

In the middle of the song it sounds like the singer is using a talk box

I've been hearing this song for a while on classic rock stations...and I'm always too stupid to figure out what the hell the line actually is. It always sounds like "god don't mess with (pause) a son of a bitch." Perhaps... "got no" and "summer" instead, I have no idea. I need new speakers badly.

That sounds like Nazareth - Hair of the Dog. The lyric is "Now you're messin' with a son of a bitch."

Time for another longshot. This song appears in the music montage at the end of the second episode of Starved. I have the montage music for almost all the episodes figured out; this is the last one. (Whoever made this show LOVES Jill Sobule.) Here are the lyrics that can be heard. I wouldn't be asking, but Google has forsaken me yet again.

The song is one of those laid-back guy-with-effeminate-voice-and-acoustic-guitar songs that sounds a bit like Jack Johnson.

I hear voices, Sound a lot like you.
Speak to me in riddles, from out of the blue.
The dangerous abyss, a lot like us.
I put up my defenses, you whisper in my ear.
I put up my antenna, you come in loud and clear.
Words just for us, mysterious but still I trust.

The communication remain [sic] open at both ends.
Beauty increases as time begins again.
I'll be in two places all the time.

Going to try and see if anyone can figure this out from the description of the music video.

It was a hip hop song that was based around the singers neighborhood if I recall. He was riding his bike around his street and rapping about it not in a straight out of Compton type way but just kind of light heartedly. I think Spike Lee directed it but checking the music videos that he gets credit for on Wikipedia and other sites proves pretty useless; they only list a few when I know he has directed a ton.

It's kind of a punk style sort of song, Initially I thought it was by Against Me.. I heard it on a college radio station, and I don't remember any lyrics other than the chorus, which is basically just a bunch of guys singing "wh-oa wh-oa wh-oa whoa, wh-oa wh-oa whooooooaaa.. whooooa wh-oa wh-oa wo-ah wo-ah woooaaahh.."

Anyone have any idea what song I'm talking about??

I finally figured it out!

It's by Hot Water Music
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Water_Music

And the song is called "Wayfarer".. For some stupid reason though none of the lyrics websites seem to include the "whoa" choruses.

Here's one that has been bugging me for years now. Back in late 1999, early 2000 I used to hear a song on an alternative radio station every time I made the 2 1/2 hour drive back and forth from college to my parents house. I've never heard the song anywhere else, only on that one radio station, so it probably wasn't a huge hit or anything. The only thing I somewhat clearly remember about the song at this point is that the lyrics included something like "satellites of fire" or "fire satellites".

Obviously not a lot to go on, but again: 1999/2000-ish, male singer, played on an alternative radio station, lyrics about fire satellites(?).

Could it have been "For the Love of Money" by the O'Jays?

Wikipedia says... and I find this hard to believe... Satellite came out in February 1997, and Youth of the Nation came out in 2002. How it took five years for a song to get released as a single is beyond me, but I'm guessing there's a discrepancy somewhere.

1. No, I know that song. This was a rap song.
2. Well that's clearly bullshit because it says it was recorded in 2001 and on the bottom timeline it says it's from 2001 and Amazon says it's from 9/11/01. I think some dipshit just changed it to his birthday.

Plus I clearly remember Alive was the first single and was released in 2001.

This might be kind of obscure but I have a vague memory of being extremely feverishly ill with the flu one day circa 2002 and catching part of a music video on a local cable access channel. I don't think it was a local artist but a decently well produced video by some indie acoustic folkie guy from somewhere else (reminded me a little of the Belle & Sebastian type of style). My feverish state made it hard for me to remember for sure but I think he was skinny, had a dark t-shirt and dark "emo" hair and possibly also a knit cap and I think the video showed him sitting and playing guitar alone in a room (apartment?) in front of an amplifier of some sort. I'm pretty sure there were a lot of quick cuts to different parts of him like his face singing (looking at the floor) and his hands playing the guitar. The only line of lyrics I remember was something like "sitting in a coffee bar" and the vocal melody was pretty repetitive.

Anyway this has been haunting me for years (I didn't particularly care for the song but pieces of its melody got stuck in my head) so in the unlikely event that this rings a bell for anyone, that would be nice.

OK, I hear this lovely song all the time on the radio (Chicago, mostly Q101 I believe). It's this whiny emo kid yelling about how to dump a boyfriend or something, then it goes to crappy chorus, then a verse about looking pretty. I like to think of it as the whiny, highschool version of Insitutionalized. There wasn't much instrumentation, and the vocals were as really loud yell.

Ugh. I just heard this song a couple hours ago, but can't remember the lyrics. As far as I can remember, it involved some woman leaving her boyfriend and there was rain involved and something about one of them either putting or not putting the key under the mat.

Also, I'm almost 99% certain that the song was used in the animated title sequence to some movie or something.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Not just an urge - more than that. It was my destiny to be here; in the box.
I listened to this song yesterday and I wanted to try and catch it for record next time it comes up on my XM radio, but I can't remember the name of the band even though I looked at it while listening.

It's an alternative rock type song, it was about a girl and something like she's a librarian but much more...and they name her in the song but I can't even remember the first name they gave her. The name is part of the recycled refrain. I want to say the last name was "Moon" or something similar sounding.

Any help?

This is an odd one guys. Ive heard it many times, and it was on a commercial on the radio today, and I had to find out the name of this song.

I think it may be a showtune or something. So basically its a solo male signing it, definate marching tempo, possibly a school anthem or something.

Goes like this
"I've been educated in mathematis, arithmatic....."

He goes on with other courses and such. Like I said, he goes through the subjects quite quick and definatly in a march tempo/beat.

Its fairly well-known song/chant, so hopefully someone can see past my bad explination.

I think the lyric is "I'm standing on the cusp of an elevated sound", and according to http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_mesg&forum=5&topic_id=1326417&mesg_id=1363288&page= they sampled a line from Diverse's song "Move" from the Move EP.

a glance at Diverse's wikipedia page says

quote:

He has professional relationships with RJD2 and Prefuse 73. He contributed to Prefuse 73's album One Word Extinguisher, rhyming on the track "Plastic"

so obviously he is at least on one track of the album. hope this helps!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I actually figured it out when I was trying to spew off any words I knew from the song, and then one part popped out "Major General"
and so I googled and lo and behold I have found it.

"I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" - recorded by many artists.

Hey, ok so Dinosaur Junior were on MTV2 doing the takeover or whatever, and one of their songs was some kid, singing a song about how he was on a train to record his song when he saw a guy who looked just like (some famous singer who I'd never heard of and cant remember). He sings pretty fast, and the song is essentially about all the self doubt and anxiety about being a singer and how you might not live up to expectations etc, and it culminates with him asking the guy if he is indeed the famous singer, and he takes him and beats him up and leaves him for dead.

I cant find anything online, despite all that, its really frustrating. I can see the video clear as day in my head, and also the tune, but none of the lyrics!
