I don't listen to 98fm. Can you give any lyrics? Especially the chorus. That would help.

Anyone know the name of the song on the
rte1 ad for private practice (spin-off of grey's anatomy)??
Dont know any lyrics sorry..

Zen 2nd

Does anyone know the name of the song that is played during the ad for an English furniture company.

It goes something like "paint my world with your love" but I think that might be slightly off.

Patrickisperfec

thats it, thanks a million

Anyone know this? Its traditional irish song. Its got quite a few internments playing. Theres a saxophone aswel I think. It has no words in it and it seems to be popular enough.

My secret shame, i hav on ocassion tuned into 98fm....i wudnt blame you for not listening...!

Theres no lyrics that i an hear in the clip...lasts about 30 secs in total

As said earlier the only clue i can giv is that it sounds quite like Def Leppards Animal.....a cracking song in my book....

Appreciate the help to date

Hermy

Just thought that any lyrics would give it away as a rousing song for a boxer is gonna be familiar to all. No lyrics means I'll have to listen out for it. Damn.

Was just going to ask the same question. Just seen it now, it is a great snippet of music, with jarring minor chords. No lyrics, just a chant type thing. Anybody know the name of this tune? It is played quite frequently on RTE advertising "Private Practice" on RTE2.

Cheers in advance.

As it says in the video info, it's 'Shangri-La' by The Kinks

(Also, when embedding YouTube videos, just put in the (in this case) FY4UEgGWSDw bit, not the entire url)

Don't know if your question's been answered yet but it's Happiness by Goldfrapp.

You know it's a real shame that RTÉ don't put half as much effort into actually playing this music on their pop station rather than doing promo/links work with it....the BS they churn out on a daily basis on 2FM is a travesty and they waste decent music on 30 second commercials...

jill_valentine

Whoever's in charge of the muisc for ads and sports montages in RTE should be given a radio station. It's consistently great. Their actual radio and music programming... not so much.

Does anyone know what the song was that was played at the End of the Spain Italy match on NET2? Sounded quite good,the chorus was something like

everyone says this love wont last repeated and there was a woman singin it with a man sorta in the background.

Heisenberg.

Thanks a mill Wertz, and here here RE the RTE music, their commercials always seem to raise my musical curiosity.....

strawberryb0y

just wondering if anyone knows the name of the song used during RTE's goal of the Euro 2008 group stage competition. think the chorus had a bit about "radioing in and radioing out"

EDIT: Found it. It's dust by Royworld

Before it is lost forever, anyone come across anything regarding this? Very much appreciated if anyone can find out the name of this tune. Thanks.:)

The Courteeners - Not 19 Forever

Hi,
I recently heard a song that I though was really great, (it was in the irish charts at the time.) Anyway, I can't find it, so I was hoping that someone might be able to suggest what it was.

It was only in the chart a few weeks ago, maybe 3 or 4.
It had a really distintive sound, mostly keyboard with a drum (syntisor), kind of an metalically sound, (and I think that there may be some bars from the terminator theme in there too.)
The video was in black and white and quite dark. It was hard to make out the members, but they appeared to be sitting a studio.

I have a feeling that it may be Audioslave, (hense my asking in the indi forum), but could be very wrong. Anyway, I know it's a long shot, but I'd love to get my hands on a copy and obviously I need the name of the song to do that.

Cheers in advance,
Ger

Hey, Basquille. Nope that's not it unfortunately. I think that they were american and it was more 'industrial'.

Cheers for the effort, any other suggestions?
