    The orig. one with grishim, although the one with wolf's (Miami?) not a bad tune either...thanks!

    This one is really getting to me...

    It was (I think) a new age one hit wonder for some group in the 90s.
    Very haunting intro and no lyric line other than a female vocalist
    with a haunting voice like an ethnic Kate Bush .. repeating something
    like "Only you..."..(could be oliou or some other foreign word mind you).

    Probably came out around the time of Enigma had a few hits in that
    mould (not my cuppa tea but the one above is very atmospheric
    and is killing me that I can't remember the title or the band)..

    anyone ??

    Only You, Portishead


  • Registered Users Posts: 880 ✭✭✭ifconfig


    Nope - not Portishead ... I think this one predates Portishead and it's a
    quite overproduced sound which is not unlike the sort of stuff Enigma
    and quasi-ethnic new age outfits used and still use.
    There's a haunting synth pad sound running through this one...

    I'm trying to get the name of a piece that was done a few years ago (approx early 90's maybe slightly earlier) involving a woman on a saxophone playing with a guy on classical guitar. The piece was basically these two playing the same notes. Whatever the woman played, the guy would repeat on the guitar.

    If anyone knows the name of the tune or the artists involved I'd appreciate it.

    There's a new animated Coca Cola ad in the cinema which is videogame in style, the song is prety cool. Can't think of any of the lyrics as I just saw/heard it last night. Does anyone know the tune?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 58 ✭✭Sallybags


    Anyone know what the song in the new surf ad is? It goes "Let's drift along and sing a song". Cheers

    The song is from Bugsy Malone - 'You give a little love (and it all comes back to you)'. Don't know who's singing it.

    Guys, the new Bulmers add. The one where your in the drink floating around and you can see the orchard and it brings you out to a guy drinking a pint in a pub.

    Whats the name of the song? and who is the band?

    I'm so glad you asked.

    It's Did I Step On Your Trumpet by the amazing Danielson Famile.

    ..and it's also the most surprising song I've ever heard on an ad. :D

    Ok,

    I know this is a bit of a stretch to find out but does anyone know the music Des Bishop is using as his intro music to his new stand up show? kinda trad sounding. Any help appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Hey. Does anyone know who sings that weird song that is found on the SkyOne advert for Lost Currently?

    Some of the lyrics include "What the Hell is going on".

    I know it was also featured in "Scrubs" with Zack Braff.

    Please help.

    What a song... one of the most original and beautiful songs i've ever heard!

    Being used a lot recently in shows and films. As a massive fan of 'Scrubs', i can tell you it was never used in 'Scrubs' though. Was definitely in Zach Braff's directorial-debut 'Garden State' though.

    You sure you're not thinking of 'Let Go' by Frou Frou? That was definitely in Garden State. The film came out a good while before her solo album.
