A few days ago I heard a track with sparse lyrics. If I had to guess it was from the mid70s. The lyrics that I heard were just a kind of chanted "ho_____oh oh_____ho_____oh oh" Not like Santa Claus but more of an understated slower tempo tribal bass line/vibe. reminiscent of: Paul Revere and the Raiders - Indian Reservation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVwEwdIIZD0 Cher - Halfbreed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6E98ZRaU1s

The song that Dogo (what a weird name heh) is looking for reminded me of a song. I believe the guy is comparing a girl to a car. This may or may not be his/her song but now I'm trying to remember this one myself. It was also funny seeing that Tripping Daisy video. In Jr. High English class we had a bring your tape/CD and lyrics to school week. Someone brought that track in so I hadn't heard it in 15+ years.

This should be an easy one as it's getting a lot of radio play. I check on http://www.yes.com/ but the track is labled "---" with no artist or title. First time I've seen that. It has lyrics "Dancing in the Moonlight" also something "spot light." It's a female singer and sounds as if it was released in the last few years. I don't know if it's based around any of the other older 70s tracks by Thin Lizzy or other groups. edit: it was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfmQuSoys7g showed up eventually after checking many google pages.

Green Eyed Loco-Man posted:Song is late '90s, early 2000s, poppy, sampling a very famous classical piece (probably Beethoven, maybe Mozart). Video involved a young white guy (the singer, I think) riding around a big city on a bicycle. One-hit wonder. Probably: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7K7orMOHqY quote:In 2002, Thicke released his debut single "When I Get You Alone".

SnowWolf posted:Heard this song while passing by and I didn't have my phone with me so I couldn't use an app to ID it. Seems like a 80s or 90s song, with a male singer. The chorus has a soft beat and one part sounds like either "I'll do anything" or "make me do anything" in a falsetto-sorta male voice with "thing" going up in pitch. But the parts after the chorus sound a little deeper with a harder beat. Not much to go on, sorry. Chris Isaak - Wicked Game? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAOxCqSxRD0

I don't know much about the song itself but I remember seeing a music video posted on here within the last 3-4 years of a girl doing a live show wearing a Dracula/vampire cape and undulating around the stage violently (playing a keyboard I think). Electronic/synthesizer style IIRC. I thought it was kind of funny but some people didn't like the music. She seemed to be an underground artist with somewhat of a following.

I heard a song on the radio today (it's one of those stations not linked with https://www.yes.com). Anyway it sounds like a Scorpions or Def Leppard style song. I'm 99% sure it's from the 80s or early 90s. Slow and strained, painful singing, high-pitched but also very slow paced. This seems to make it somewhat distinctive. One of the first lyrical segments opens with a slow "Try, try..." and another segment has I believe "If you ever..." edit: I found it. It was Scorpions - Still Loving You https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUMcA--ejOc Apparently this is what's called a power ballad. I need to check out Scorpions full catalog. I keep coming across individual tracks I like. Zogo fucked around with this message at 00:03 on Mar 10, 2013 |

Answers saying it's Led Zeppelin. I can't think of any song by them with an actual trumpet. Some have said that "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" and "All My Love" have moments like that but those would be odd choices for a science commercial.
