ElectricBlizzard: Jun 24, 2011; "I never met a monster I didn't like"

Going to try here because the request video thread has no answers yet and it's been driving me insane for days now.

I'm looking for a music video.
It was a rap/hip hop song about a man trying to get back the purse of his girlfriend from the thief in a bar, he then kills the guy and runs away to hide in the trunk of a car.
The intro is a small instrumental piece with shots of streets coloured in and with the names of the artists on it.

I vaguely remember one of the lyrics being him lamenting "how'd i end up in the back of this trunk" or something like that.

If anyone knows,thanks!

Ok, this is a really odd one and I'll be astonished if anyone can actually find it so bear with me.

Sometime in 2002 or 2003 I went with a group of friends to a fashion show in Sydney. It was an extremely... alternate fashion show, with lots of goths, latex clothing, chains and a guy dressed as a zebra. As we were all just out of high school everyone thought it was equal parts bizarre and hilarious and as a consequence we had a great night. Now, over the years it's always been thought of fondly, and one of the running jokes in our circle is the song that played during the overweight girl wearing tight latex hot pants section of the show. It's main distinguishing features were 1. Just about every word in it was some variation of a woman saying "gently caress me harder" and 2. There was a break in the middle with nothing apart from a woman moaning.

That's everything I can think of, I honestly don't expect anyone to find it but if it rings any bells I'll be in your debt!

Maybe this ? It's very Gothy and has lots of "gently caress me"in it

Oh and i just remembered this song which also vaguely fits your description and i can imagine some alternative fashion show goth walking to this.

Hope it's one of these!

This is a shot in the dark, I'm looking for another song or maybe a band.
I was listening to this song today

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGHjGfA1nIA

And starting at 4:03 you hear this warmer guitar(?) sound in the background doing small melodies that keeps going till the end of the song.

This sound/melody sounds so amazingly familliar but i can't put my finger on it, anyone know of songs/band that vaguely sound like that guitar thing ?

Thanks!

I heard a song once. Probably from a link on SA somewhere. I really don't have a lot of information, but I know that it was 1) kind of an upbeat indie-rock sorta thing 2) Russian or some sort of Baltic 3) mentioned some kind of big corporation(s) in the chorus.

I remember loving loving that song, and oh man do I wish I knew what it was.

This ?

I don't recall much about the song itself, except that it opened with piano. It's some form of indie rock. The music video was cut out animation, black and white, and it was a Western theme. I believe it featured animals dressed up as people, and that there was some kind of duel/stand off. The song is probably from 3-4 years ago.

should be this

I'm losing my loving mind.

This song starts out with what sounds like modulated string chords - almost like harpsichords - and goes:

DUN dun dun dun
dun dun DUN dun dun dun
dun den DUN dun dun dun
etc

it's a dark song with electronic overtones and features a female vocalist. the chorus sounds something like 'WE REACH FOR THE WORRL, REACH FOR THE WORLLL' but it's obviously not those words. there's a part where the woman says something about dying and then the beat...drops? please help me.

it's very haunting and echo-y

there's a nonzero chance that the album cover is black with some kind of white thing on it

It doesn't really have "the beat drops" but worth a shot ?

This should be an easy one. Haunting synth, real slow beat, a woman singing "(falling? hopeless?) in love" over and over again. I think it's their only hit, the rest of their stuff is pretty inaccessible.

Probably not but it matches quite a few parts of your description ?

I heard a punk song on Complete Control Radio a couple years back

in it the singer goes on about people he knew (i think literally the the chorus is something like "these are some people that I know") and where they wound up ie "Jenny committed suicide"

it's NOT the kids are alright by the offspring

Also going to take a stab at it, maybe this ? :

Here's one that's been on my mind recently... This might be vague...

It's a synthy, slightly downtempo song that every once in a while has some videogamey sound effects sprinkled in, like a mario or a sonic ring sfx. It's chill, in a major key, and the bass line iirc just bops around on quarter notes in a I-V like pattern. It's not dubstep, but it's kind of synth-wavey with a beat. Heard it again on a Tik Tok fairly recently too, but I think the song's been around for a few years.

This might be a wild guess, but with the ubiquitousness of lo-fi hip hop mixes on youtube maybe one of those passed by; and there's a few 'nintendo' ones with video game sounds sprinkled through them. I.e https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JMvn0wfABQ the second song (file select) for example seems to match your description a bit with sound and feel but not exactly your recreation. Maybe this is a direction to look into ?

Pop-punk song/band, could be goon related.
I think the album cover was teeth on a pink background. Hoarse shouty vocals.
There was a song that was called 'twin peaks' or something along those lines about taping a bottle of soda in each hand and chugging them down.

Also they had a videoclip of the vocalist running around shirtless in the snow

edit: found it!

There's a tune that starts at 31 seconds and I know I've heard it in some other music. Sound familiar to anyone else?

This was from an old youtube video i saw years ago.

Doom/stoner band (i think), two people. Man and a woman, the man was wearing a suit and playing on an amplified acoustic guitar. His hair was some giant floppy 'liberty spikes'.

That's all i got

I figure this is the best place to look for this.

My father had a record in the past and on the inside of the foldout sleeve is a picture that is a recolorised frame from "by a waterfall/footlight parade". I made a quick mock up of it and hope someone recognizes it.
