A joint failure of (a) me not opening Soundhound quickly enough and (b) being slow witted to not remember lyrics.

The only thing I remember is "freckles on her face" and it sounded remarkably like Passenger/Mike Rosenberg. In any event, it was lovely. Google has failed me, so any help muchly appreciated.

Did you listen to The Cab - Her love is my religion ? Lyrics include ''Cos I see the stars in the freckles on her face''

Thanks for the suggestion, DeeBE, but that's not it unfortunately. I'll have to lurk unobtrusively in my local shop, hoping it's on some sort of repeating playlist.

Somewhat related, I was in Caffrey's in Batterstown sometime in mid January this year and they were still playing their Christmas playlist. Jokingly questioning one of the bar-staff, it transpired that their music was "piped-in" over the interwebs and they had no control over it. Despite several phonecalls, she said, they were stuck with Christmas 2015.

For all I know, the boys of the NYPD choir are still singing 'Galway Bay' in August in the Royal Country. Not that that's a bad thing.

Im a bit late in the day for this, but I'm watching the Love/Hate boxset, and looking for a song from Season 5 Episode 1.

Its where theyre all in the club, Siobhan is dancing and the new guy Pauly is watching her. She goes to the bar and asks for a pint of water.

Its a dance/trance tune. Ive shazamed 3 times and it either wont find it or gives me different results which arent the song.

Ive googled the rte playlist and its totally different from whats on the boxset. Ive tried everything!

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 04-09-2016 07:54PM

^ I'm sure that one was asked at the time it aired, if you search the thread for Love Hate it might pop up.

Only ever watched one episode of love hate but I remember hearing this song in a club scene might be it lol
GotSome - Bassline

Devrozex · 10-09-2016 08:30AM

Does anyone know what the song is in the Liberty Insurance ad?

Sounds like it might be by Grimes but not sure.

reap-a-rat · 11-09-2016 02:43AM

It's a long shot but...

It's an 80s tune by someone like The Cure or Depeche Mode and he says something like Alone Again or In Love Again and there's a very catchy synth sound like "do do de de di de do do, do di di diiii do".

I know it's vague but everyone knows this song...

Edit: I found it but am interested to see if anyone can decipher that description anyway ðŸ˜Š

cormie · 11-09-2016 07:47AM

The Cure, Love song?

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 11-09-2016 11:34AM

Love Cats by The Cure?

Ill check that out thanks

Ended up that the song I was looking for was played in a other episode and I got three words from it which was enough for a lyrics search. I danced around the room and all lol.

Song I was looking for is Tom Quick & Sue Verran - One Last Play.

Wrong on both counts - its Enola Gay by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

Thanks for the replies though!

BoobeR · 19-09-2016 02:57AM

A friend of a friend is looking for this tune and all I could find was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ5If-Mx_cY Now this is definitely the song he sent a tiny clip of.. but Shazam, Sound hound etc calls up nothing. He really wants this song. Help would be really appreciated, Thanks

(I don't have full versions of either of these programs, Dunno if that could help in you guys finding what tune it is)

cormie · 19-09-2016 10:06AM

I think it's probably just a mix of this?

BoobeR · 19-09-2016 06:06PM

Hmm not sure about that cormie it's a bit off. I've listened to a good few remixes of that now incl trap / dub and they still sound much more like ludacris than the link I posted. Plus the guy I know heard this on the radio, so it's not a one-off track for the video either

philstar · 21-09-2016 10:15PM

what's the music RTE are using for the ploughing live show??

BalcombeSt4 · 29-09-2016 01:56PM

Whats the name of this Vietnamese tune in the background of the 1st minute or so of this video? I'm sure its something about Dien bien Phu but thats it. Thanks

Pa994 · 29-09-2016 10:45PM

What's the background music on new liberty insurance advert??

nefna · 08-10-2016 08:20PM

Hi, does anyone know the music on the Centra advert please? It sounds like Mick Jagger singing but goes off into a kind of salsa where the singer is laughing.

Just saw an ad for The Blacklist on Sky Atlantic and the background song was a really cool version of Come as You Are. Didn't shazam in time. Anyone any ideas? TIA x

Sorry meant to post that in its own thread but I'm on my phone so it went haywire ;-)

Pete Rodriguez - I like it like that.

Aaargh WTF is that song with the lyrics "Everything (everyone?) has been done before, something something... wasting away..."?

What is this song? Its famous, probably 80s or 90s, I want to say its the Smiths or something.

mia_clim · 10-11-2016 07:48AM

I think too that,is it Smith:-)

CSANGCsdfdn · 05-12-2016 09:47PM

There is a song that plays where I work and the lyrics go like such:

"White Gold, Rose Gold, Yellow Gold ...... Solid Gold. I love it aaaahhh" and this repeats multiple times.

There is another part: "Tricked out.... solid gold" Which also repeats multiple times.

It's a male voice and a bit of a techno beat.

Endless lyric searches on google have gotten me nowhere, so I'm hoping some kind soul on here might know it.

Thank you!!

kildare lad · 27-12-2016 11:27PM
