    No, I should mention it was a female vocalist and she sounded like Beth Gibbons but I can't find any song in their discog afaik. It was definitely a mid 90s song.

    There was an ad around 10 years ago on TV / radio. I think it could have been a Centra / Vodafone type ad, or possibly just a generic Today FM one.

    It was a pop-indie rock type song by what I think was an Irish band and as far as I know it is their only known song. I have a feeling it was something like The Vagabonds - Come On.

    Can't find it in all my searches

    Without much to go on, might I suggest Sunburst by Picturehouse?

    Anyone know the name of the song that's being played on the current RTE Sport GAA ad?

    It starts off: "I want it all..." Can't catch any more of it.. :(

    Lads there was a song on 2fm at about 5.30pm from jenny green. Great tune. Played at electric picnic few years ago. Anyone know what the song was?

    I'm trying to find the name of a song that's been playing on the radio literally all of the time, also it's on some tv ad although i can't remember which one.

    It's like a disco/house kind of tune and has this brilliant trumpetty/brass sound during the chorus. I've literally gone through every song in the charts and can't find it.

    The chorus goes a bit like:

    DunDunDun
    Dun--Dun
    Duuuuuuuuuuuunnnn and repeats ( again it's got that trumpetty sound ) hope that helps��

    I can't believe it wasn't in the Top 50 considering it's playing on the radio every 5 mins.

    The replay of her show will be on the 2fm website tomorrow, just scroll to around 2hrs 30 mins in and you should find it.

    Hypnotic state- Gemma sugrue and the rte orchestra the name of the song was. Cant find a version of that song anywhere.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUcL2sQWzMc is the original

    The song you heard is probably from the event they are talking about here so there is unlikely to be any version of that on the usual places - https://www.rte.ie/entertainment/2016/0905/814274-jenny-greene/

    Heard a song on iradio last night about 1020pm.

    Checked their website for playback, but seems to be no dj show at that time so can't listen back.

    There was a song that seemed to have a chorus with the words 'on and on' repeated a fair bit.

    Would describe the music as a mix between oasis and maybe a synth drumbeat backing.

    Any ideas? Searched their playlist, the top40, YouTube etc and nothing.

    I would love to think it's Wild Youth, Can't Move On, but the chance of you not having heard it before Friday are surely slim, as it was a massive hit last year.

    But just in case, and because I love them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,587 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Thanks Princess,but that's not it.
    Know that song for sure.

    I guess this is the section to ask this question: Does anybody know the name of the song used in the An Post ads (featuring Angela Scanlon). It's really catchy and I've searched again and again for a clue. Google etc can't seem to narrow it down

    What's the song beginning at 0:21?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,608 ✭✭✭jaykay74


    A song I heard yesterday that I tried to identify with soundhound but it didn't work, maybe I wasn't close enough. And then at home I tried to google the lyrics and that didn't work either.

    Goes something like "run better run, better run for cover" in the chorus, female vocalist. No guitars, keyboard based. Sounded a bit like Saint Etienne. Maybe theres a "deliver me" in there as well before the chorus bit.

    Cracking me up the last few days :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,592 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Maybe a cover of 'Pumped up kicks' by foster the people?
