    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.
    Is it Lisa Hannigan "what'll I do"........ again?
    Video is 2 or 3 pages back.

    Hmm. Both Sandstorm and 9pm till I come have a suitcase theme in the video. I'd go for Sandstorm.

    I've been trying to help a guy on another forum to find out what this song is to no avail and now it's starting to bug me. All we know is that it seems to be from the early to mid-90's and it's an American indie-rock band. I've tried Googling whatever song lyrics I can make out and he tried using Shazaam but got no results. If there's any older members here with a good memory of the 90's it would be great if you could help me out.




    I don't know if you have found out the name of this song by now but if you haven't the name of the song is "Not Rocket Science" by the Australian band Pollen. I couldn't find it on YouTube but its on iTunes

    Hi,

    So I heard a song on 2fm just before 11pm last night, and after much searching of their website I'm still unable to find out who sings it or what the name is. It was played as a time filler in between a podcast and the news hour.

    It an upbeat pop/indie rock song, similar sound to The Strokes.

    Here are some of the lyrics (which I've googled in different combinations, but still can't find it):

    "Don't you know, that I'd do anything to impress, that's why I compliment you on your sense of dress, the way you always look so fine"

    "As we roll down the street, stumbling cheek to cheek, the boys say she's fine"

    "Not now I've tried so hard,
    Not now I've come so far,
    My house is only 20 yards up the street,
    We _________ if you just shuffle your feet"

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Song from a few years ago. There was a white guy with a beard and long hair with a ghetto blaster - the music drives people wild. He is in some country like Jamaica. At the end of the music video he is in jail with a shaved head.

    Fat Boy Slim - Push the Tempo

    Thats the one. I think the title is

    I just discovered that the song title is actually 'Ya Mama'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_for_Shelter_/_Ya_Mama

    'Push the Tempo' makes more sense.
