    heard a song driving to college on ray darcy this morning. Acoustic guitar and singing interspersed with really bad rapping in a thick dublin accent. Anyone know what it was?

    Could it be Damien Dempsey "Patience"??

    Nah wasn't Damien Dempsey. Think it was new and the rapper sounded like a kid. It was a band name not a persons name, just can't remember it.

    Hi there,

    I've got a vague memory of a song in my head that I just can't put my finger on.

    Basically it was a kind of comedy song, probably from the 70s or 80s, and it might have been an Irish singer / comedian, I'm not sure.

    All I can really remember is that each verse was spoken, and the comedian would get the crowd to sing 'boing' ( like a bell pealing ) at the end of each line. Then he'd sing the chorus on his own.

    From what I can remember, it was all very easy-listening and middle of the road. Any ideas?

    J.

    P.S. Thanks for merging this, can't believe I missed the stickied thread!

    Ah, I finally remember a bit more of the lyric, and the song is actually 'Little Jimmy Brown'. It's been around for decades and even Edith Piaf did a version!

    I do think it was a comedy version, so I'll have to go looking for that...

    Hey all,
    So I've heard this song on a few nights out at friends houses. It's a party tune, in some foreign language. As far as I know it's fairly recent and seems to be popular enough. The only song I know that I would compare it to is this......

    fraid not :( i didnt realise the themes of suitcases and train stations was quite as overused as this in the 90s, it appears my description might match 90% of songs!

    I never noticed how many dance videos had cases and train stations in them,seems to be a recurring theme.

    I heard a song playing over the credits of xpose during the week, I'd never heard it before and tried googling the lyrics but no result. Its song by a female and some of the lyrics I picked up are 'she's skin and bone, tryin' not to let it show, don't want the family to know,CHORUS- put your best foot forward (repeated a few times..)
    Any ideas what this is????
    Thanks

    I could be wrong but is this not the 2fm ad off the tv where Ryan Tubridy is driving a car in front of the Eifel Tower?

    If so this is the song

    Damn 2FM Dee Jays, I wish they would just do their job sometimes and inform their general listeners what music they are actually listening too. This is twice now in the same cafe that 2FM have played this track with no ID at the end. Someone put me out of my misery, who is this band? I cannot remember the lyrics but the chorus goes. "Woah -oho- oho - oo and the chorus melody hook is similar to Becks track Why Dont You, Maybe. In fact its a bit Beckish but more poppier with female vocals too.

    If you want to get into it, you got to get out of it. (Hawkwind 1982)
