Battering Ham posted:I'm looking for a song that i remember being part of a race/chase sequence from some random anime (maybe FLCL) when i was younger. It was done on a xylophone with i think some orchestral backing. It was face paced and fun. If it was on FLCL, then it might be Kabalevsky's Comedian's Gallop (or Galloping Comedians, or the Comedians' Dance, there seem to be several translations)

the posted:Either this track was mislabeled on that channel, or I'm going crazy. I know what I saw. The name or title might not be right. I know that DirecTV's music channels often update the song info well after the song has started, and the title and artist update separately, so you can end up with mismatched information. If the lyrics had "dynamite" in them, it may have been some sort of remix of AC/DC's TNT, possibly one of the few thousand versions of this that are floating around.

LorneReams posted:I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm getting married this Saturday and I promised I'd be able to find a song for my fiancé’s parents introduction, but I have been unlucky so far. What I am looking for is the opening theme of a Japanese drama called "Hissatsu Shigotonin".The show ran from like 1970 to 1990, before having a reboot/remake done in 2009 or so. It needs to be the original, and not the new one. I'm getting a little desperate, so any help (artist, title, details) would be helpful. I found what I think is a soundtrack released by King Records, but it may not be the same song, and it won't get to me on time anyway Is this it? Apparently called Koroshi no Theme (殺しのテーマ).

Phy posted:I'm lookin' for a version of Blue Moon with a really relaxed, almost sleepy surf/steel guitar doing the melody. May be just during the bridge, it may be an instrumental track, might even be a song that sounds almost exactly like Blue Moon but isn't (but if it's that, it's as close as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is to the Alphabet song) The Ventures did a Blue Moon cover, but it's not particularly relaxed or sleepy. I suspect you might actually be thinking of Sleep Walk by Santo & Johnny.

More of a clash since it seems to switch between the two genres. One of the blues lyrics was "grew up in Mississippi". He talks about traveling around the world and mentions Saudi Arabia at one point. At the end, rap guy says something to the affect of "you're the greatest, pops." Nas - Bridging the Gap

Geshtal posted:I'm trying to track down a name and/or band for a techno/dance song they keep playing at a bar near me. The music generally sounds like synthesized stringed instruments going up and down against long notes from a synth-organ. The lyrics are mostly screaming I can't make out but one line at the end of the chorus that goes (I think) "We're gonna make it tonight!" The music video is some guy in a ghost costume (just a sheet over him with two eye holes) running around a city street at night, messing with people. Ends up in a dinner and gets food all over him when he tries to eat through the sheet so he goes to a laundromat and tosses himself into one of the washers to get clean before going back to running about the town. Catchy tune too, but I have no idea how to search for this. Any help? Deadmau5 - Ghosts N Stuff

You Are A Elf posted:1.) This protest song may be called "Maybe We Should Listen to the Young Folk" by a country & western singer. It may have been a very minor crossover hit on the charts which my dad says definitely happened in 1967. The basic gist of it is about the singer telling the older listener to at least give the young and new generation a say. A partial lyric goes something like, "... and in these times, when other countries have their missiles pointed at us..." This is Freddy Weller's Listen to the Young Folks, off the album of the same name. Unfortunately it's not easy to find online.

It wasn't one of those dodgy compilations where they're too cheap to pay the royalties for the real songs, and it wasn't the versions by Shivaree or Melissa Forbes, I already tried those.

It might not actually be gibberish but in my mind it's just backwards talking and the like, with a lot of "mushy" sounds like Portuguese being spoken. Cousin Chris. It's on EP.
