This is an artist I'm looking for, rather than a song.

Maybe 8 or 10 years ago, I watched a YouTube video of a punk rock concert, professionally shot with bright (possibly static; minimal programming at best) lighting in a fairly small indoor venue (crowd of 200, maybe less?). Going by the video quality, it was contemporary. I believe the idea was that this was an artist who had been mildly famous in the genre in decades past (going by his age, the 90s?), and was doing a kind of one-off "remember me?" show. I suspect the singer was the only original artist onstage, with randos on the other instruments.

Singer looked like modern-day Mike Muir, but heavier. Oversized t-shirt and shorts, I think.

The reason I remember this is because the singer gave the most phoned-in excuse for a live musical performance I have ever seen. Clearly, this was meant to be fairly high energy music, but he was straight-up just speaking the lyrics, movement limited to taking a step or two back and forth, expression/body language of "I'm here, pay me". Homeless people leaning against buildings put on a better show.

I was recently introduced to a Japanese band called トモコDeath and I would like to know more about the people involved if anybody has any information on them.

Here's a youtube playlist of their stuff my friend put together. We can't find any info on these people but we're really curious to know more.

Sounds kind of like when Mike Doughty revisited the Soul Coughing stuff "the way it was supposed to be played" and it was not very good. But he's not really punk.

I downloaded a song off limewire or kazza back in the day it claimed to be by iron maiden but clearly was not. The title was inside you and the main lyrics were let the devil out. I've been trying for years on Google YouTube and lyric sites but have had no luck. It was a bit growly and shouty but not to any extreme

From a YouTube comment on a recent Whang! video:

quote:

This was a rap song, by a literal family, who presumably sung songs about wholesome family topics. I'm 90% sure the name of the song was "The lickin' stick" and it was about being punished with "the lickin' stick" for misbehaving. I found this song browsing someone's napster collection, so this had to be the year 2000 or older. While the song was very funny to me, I do believe that it was sincere and not meant as a joke. The song itself had a kind of rudimentary late 80s, early 90s sound, but that could just be because it was amateur, and at the time it was common for unhip people to still associate rap with that simpler 80s style flow, and the more sound module/drum machine type of beats. I've tried searching for this many times over the years and I think the terms are too generic to yield results. For instance, I tried to just find family rap groups, but there's a million groups using family in a more slang term like The [something] family but they are not literally related. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fuck yeah cinema is finally dead
Trying to remember a band and it's driving me crazy. I have extraordinarily little useful information:

British
Indie / kind of post rock
Some instrumentals on the album
Early 2000s (maybe even late 90s)
One of those bands the British music press went apeshit for and proclaimed the second coming of the Beatles for exactly one album
2 guitars / bass / drums and I'm pretty sure the bass player was a ring in for touring
Would probably be used in an ad for a mid price Japanese plug in hybrid hatchback if released today

Edit: the band was doves and the album was lost souls

This might be too little detail but, it used to be one of the top results if you just naively searched 'industrial music' on YouTube, intro was slow, music video was pretty low budget and was mostly a malnourished-looking individual with white person dreads shouting at the camera while a strobe light went off in the background, artist or song title had 'psy' somewhere in it I think

I need help finding a YouTube playlist I came across in 2014. It was called "something different" I think, and had some great tracks on it. Here are a few that I definitely remember being on the playlist.

Nirvana - Lake of Fire
Doomsquad - Waka Waka
Blank Realm - Cleaning Up My Mess
Annie - Antonio (Berlin Breakdown)
Hot Chocolate - Cicero Park
The Wytches - Digsaw

Is there some way to reverse engineer these songs to find that playlist again?

J-pop/rock song I kept getting in my youtube feed last year:
• Single woman artist
• She played drums in the video
• Video starts with some hipster-looking white dude pounding on the wall yelling at her in English for playing music.
• She winds up like breaking the wall or yanking him through a hole and knocking him out.

Sorry, don't remember more.

Something very weird. I'm not the best at sheet music and I really only know my instrument, so take a whole bag of salt, but that's some confusing notation. The things that look like superscript staples above the notes mark it as downstrokes and the little numbers specify fingerings (e.g. 3 above a high C would mean shifting to play it with the third finger). It never has more than 4 notes being played at the same time, and usually less, so it's probably for some instrument with 4 strings (or courses of strings)...

It's in B-flat though, which is more of a woodwind thing, like I think that's just how clarinets do natively. Usually I bump into that when it's supposed to match a voice ; I know some fiddle tunes in B-flat but they're like weird rear end folk stuff from back before keeping your instrument in tune and not drinking in the morning were invented.

drat interesting. Where'd you find that?

(Note : I'm not a very good musician so I could be talking out of my rear end.)

Looks like Habanera -L'amour est un oiseau rebelle (Si Je t'Aime) - from Carmen, by Bizet.

Not sure from what instrument. 's got chords, so probably not a woodwind. Not piano. Some sort of string adaptation.

Lmfao it actually is! Mostly!

I do actually play violin but didn't mention it because I didn't expect anyone to take the question seriously - if I had actually tried playing it I would've figured it out :negative: I'd just completely forgotten this was a thing. Bizet's sheet music looks very different at first glance because Sarasate was a show-off, and I'm extremely mid at reading sheet music anyway. I falsely assumed that if I tried to play it I wouldn't recognize it. Just goes to show, right?

Anyway thanks!!!!!

A long-rear end time ago I saw a gif of a dude (I think he was black) eating bills of money. The dude was (at least part) real, the money was cartoon animated, think Run the Jewels (the clip). It was part of a French rap music video, I think some more animated stuff happens including some black goop trying to take over. It was shot in a bleak old industrial place, like a closed down factory. Anyone have any clue?

I'm looking for a vinyl single that I found in my dad's old record collection when I was a kid. My dad was born in the 50s, so it must be from the 60s/70s I guess. I've asked my dad about it, but he doesn't remember it at all.

The front cover was an illustration. It was a hippyish looking guy - long hair (blond I think) , bandana, flowers in hair. There was another guy behind him. There was a 'sheen' to the whole thing, as if we were actually looking at a mirror image - I think the front hippy guy was the musician, the bloke behind him a stylist or something? And hippy guy was looking at himself in the mirror and giving his approval.

There was a folded popup thing inside the cover like you'd see in a popup book, so when you opened it up a hand popped up giving the peace sign.

The only lyrics I remember are from about halfway through the song:
"Grow your hair real long, write some real long songs
Its gonna be tough"

I thought it might be Clifford T Ward, but I've looked and can't find it (plus he had dark hair, not blond - though I could be wrong about the hair colour).

I been wantin to see a honkey dance.
Upbeat one hit wonder female pop song from 10 years or so ago, got plenty of mainstream radio play. All I can remember was the jist of the song was "I don't want you back you suck" or something "edgy" and "in-your-face" like that and half of the lines where punctuated with "unhh" or "yeah" yelled by the singer overlayed into the track. Does this ring any bells?
