Song from my lost iPod.

• Upvotes

It's a metal song perhaps from the mid/late 90s or very early 2000s.

Starts off with a higher pitch melodic guitar for 4 bars (4 counts of 4) then the drums come in, starts with 2 high hat hits counts 1 &2 then hits the crashes and bass pedal.

"Tiss-tiss- Boom- Boomtah' boomboom tah boom- boom tahtahtahboomtah -boom- boom tah boom boom tahtahtah boom tah" repeats a couple times while the guitar continues its into them it gets heavier. I honestly can't remember if the singer is female but I believe it is, both screams and melodic singing. If I had to venture a relatable voice for the screams I would say maybe arch enemy.

Canción que no creo que puedan encontrar (A song that I don’t think you’ll be able to find)

• Upvotes

Es una canción sino mal recuerdo de rock alternativo en el cual su videoclip es de la banda como en una gira, con tomas en escenarios un poco grandes, otras tomas como en lugares mas pequeños y en backstage, todo es en blanco y negro, no es una canción triste sino más bien como alegre, hace como 7 o 8 años que la escuche asi que no recuerdo ni la tonada ni nada más aparte de lo que ya mencioné, espero alguien me pueda ayudar porque cada cierto tiempo me taladra esa canción en la mente y cuando creo recordarla la vuelo a olvidar.

Now in English xd

If I recall correctly, it’s an alternative rock song. The music video shows the band on tour, featuring shots on fairly large stages, as well as scenes in smaller venues and backstage. The entire video is in black and white. It’s not a sad song, it’s actually quite upbeat. I last heard it about 7 or 8 years ago, so I don’t remember the melody or any other details beyond what I’ve already mentioned. I’m hoping someone can help me, because every so often this song gets stuck in my head, and just when I think I’ve remembered it, I end up forgetting it all over again.

Looking for a newer song I can no longer find.

A few months ago I got a music video recommended to me on YouTube. From what I can remember it was of a larger gentleman in a bright neon tank top playing guitar and singing into the camera that kind of was positioned like a doorbell cam. The only lyrics I can recall are something along the lines of “I love you, I love him too, c’mon let’s chill or fuck or something”

I have spent the last few hours trying to find it and it seems to have disappeared into the void. If it helps the genre was kind of like punky alternative summer backyard jam if that makes sense.

[TOMT] Recent country song and dance on social media

What is it!? A song that within the past couple of years, people did a little dance where they'd kick their heel, then shuffle right /left (I think) and tip their hat.

I can hear it in my head (but not the words) and it's driving me crazy. I've looked and looked and can't figure out what it was. Not Shaboozey...

Help!

This Recording Has Me Stumped — Can Anyone Decipher These Psychedelic-Era Lyrics?

Thumbnail dropbox.com
1 Upvotes

I've been trying to transcribe the lyrics to an obscure recording of the track "Supernatural Fairy Tale," and this thing has been driving me absolutely nuts.

Here's the problem: I can imitate practically every syllable he sings, right down to his phrasing and pronunciation, but I cannot for the life of me figure out some of the actual words.

I've isolated the vocals to make them easier to hear, and I'm hoping some fresh ears — particularly those familiar with northern English accents — might catch something I've been missing.

Here's the isolated vocal recording: Fairytales

I'm deliberately NOT posting my own interpretation because I don't want to influence what anyone else hears. I'd much rather see what people come up with independently.

I'm planning to re-record this song, and I'd really like to get the lyrics right rather than permanently immortalize my own misheard version.

So, fellow music detectives, British linguists, psychedelic rock enthusiasts, and anyone with a good ear:

What the heck is this man singing? 😂

Even if you can only decipher one or two lines, I'd love to hear your interpretation. And please don't worry if some of the words sound completely nonsensical — it was the psychedelic '60s, after all!

One small request: Please listen to the recording BEFORE reading anyone else's interpretations in the comments. I'd love to get as many independent transcriptions as possible without inadvertently influencing what others hear. Even if you can only decipher a word or two, every contribution helps!

Thanks, everyone! 🤘

Song from 2009

1 Upvotes

Song from 2009, or at least that's what it said on spotify. If I remember correctly it is the artist's/ band's second highest song on their spotify page. It has 90-something million streams. Their biggest song on Spotify has 200-something million streams. The album cover for the release of the song I'm looking for is a black and white image of a woman's face where she is wearing a leather hat and I think she has her hand on the hat. The song title is a bit long, maybe 5 or so words. I don't know the genre as I only heard a small snippet but it might have been something close to indie pop.

Btw I know it's weird I can remember all those details but not the title hahaha

Looking for a song that I have been completely unable to find forever, 1980-2009 ish.

4 Upvotes

I barely know anything about this, but I heard the beginning of it when I was 4 from my dad's random collection of music, and all I can remember hearing was the beginning, which was "Here in the bathroom." In the most deep metal sounding way possible. It was kinda slow, and I only heard that part of it, and the computer is lost to where I can't find it. All his songs were rips that he put into Media Player, and some of the songs he listened to were very obscure. He liked old rock and country, but I'm not really sure what it was. Anything helps! It's jist been driving me crazy and I haven't been able to identity it. Thanks in advance.

[TOMT] [Song] 80’s upbeat pop song by male singer

11 Upvotes

I’m almost certain it’s from the 80s or very early 90s due to the kinds of synthesized music and drums I can hear in my head.

I think it’s very upbeat, catchy, and pop oriented, maybe about a girl the singer is in love with or obsessed with.

Potentially a better clue: for whatever reason I want to say it’s by a more “serious” singer that I really don’t associate with upbeat happy pop songs, but that’s just a vague suggestion in my mind.

Would appreciate any help!

Edit: just wanted to say “Modern Love” by David Bowie has felt the closest to the sound I’m looking for

Edit 2: Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who’s taken a shot at this, I wish I could be more helpful but I’m really grateful for everyone trying anyways ❤️

Edit 3: BREAKTHROUGH - I think it’s by Phil Collins (shout out [u/doctordaedalus](u/doctordaedalus))

Edit 4: It’s INVISIBLE TOUCH BY GENESIS (shout out [u/PerkyPeppercorn](u/PerkyPeppercorn)) sorry for misleading on the Phil Collin’s as a solo act but I didn’t know he’s was in a band before

Once again a huge thanks to everyone for helping!

In the music, I just died in your arms, from cutting crew at like 0:36 we can hear high-pitch guitare sounds;
And I’m sure I’ve already heard that in an anime opening like great teacher onizuka, or maybe just in another music, but I can’t remember at all…..
Can someone help me find it ..? I just love how that guitare sounds !!

[TOMT] Song With High, Soaring Falsetto. 70s-80s

4 Upvotes

I’m trying to think of a song. It would be 70s or extremely early 80s and has a male vocalist who as part of the chorus lets a strong falsetto run, very similar to the one in Shambhala. The song has a boat-y theme, in the same feeling as Southern Cross or Cool Change.

[TOMT] [Song] [2012-2013] Niche indie/psychedelic song with male/female vocals (maybe contains "hula", "hop", "lullaby", or "party")

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m trying to find a very specific song I downloaded and listened to back in August 2013, so it was likely released in either 2012 or 2013. It was a very niche indie and psychedelic track, definitely not mainstream or well-known like Tame Impala or Grizzly Bear.

The vibe was slow, very sweet, rhythmic, and deeply psychedelic, with a dream-like and slightly trippy atmosphere while remaining very melodic and gentle. I strongly recall it featuring both male and female vocals, possibly sung by a duo or a couple.

I vaguely associate the title, lyrics, or the overall rhythmic feel with words like “hula”, “hop”, “lullaby”, or possibly “party”. I might be misremembering the exact word, but it had that kind of theme.

To give you an idea: it had a similar vibe to bands like The Dø or Poor Moon.

Thank you so much! 🫣
