The "What's That Song" Thread [ PLEASE READ ]

Basq

Due to a overwhelming litter of Song ID threads cluttering the forum.. from August 13th 2006, the forum now has a new policy on this.

Everything related to a song ID HAS to be posted in this thread and this thread only.

Any "what's that song" type posts made outside of this thread will be deleted without hesitation.

And also would like to avoid any real discussion in the thread besides requests for a song ID, identification of a song and acknowledge / thanks for the ID. Not really a strict policy on this but if i see a discussion going on for 10 posts about how great a particular song is or something to that effect, i will delete it due to simply cluttering up the thread.

Anyone know the name of the tune on the ad for the RTE show Prosperity. I know it but just can't think. It's a chilled trakc of a dancy type album if I remember.

Argh, it Radiohead and it's on the Kid A album. Can't quite remember which one.

anyone know the song the guy is listening to in the car while waiting at the traffic lights in the lyric fm ad?

I don't know if this was asked before, but what's the name of the song from the Budweiser commercial with the people made of snow throwing snowballs at each other and riding the an avalanche? I can remember the tune but I can't remember any lyrics :S

ifconfig

I am trying to remember artist and track name of a song which is
somewhere between 7 and 10 yrs old. It rarely gets airplay now but
it sounded like a female lyricist with a voice like Cerys Matthews (Catatonia)
and some male vocalist casting comical jibes/slags at each other...
a sort of slagging duet....

..in fact not entirely unlike shane mcgowan/kirsty mccoll/scumbag/****
exchange. The exchange went something like you did X and she would
reply and you did Y and there were slightly cringeful words exchanged
about underwear and other personal slags. It was fairly mainstream
and got a good bit of airplay at the time.

Anyone help me out. Apologies for lack of concrete lyrics here...

-ifc

ifconfig

Oops -- this has happened before. I used some google & youtube and
found the song I was looking for....
"Ballad of Tom Jones" by Space with Cerys...

BaZmO*

Was gonna suggest something else waaaayy of the mark.....

saso, forget the name of the song

anyone know that piano song by Aphex Twin, played on an upright by the sound of it and its chordal, sounds melancholic. Also whats the name of that song that is used for apocalyptic aftermath type scenarios, its quite famous and is currently being used on an ad on channel 4, theres one keyboard sound that is used and it sounds very artic/cold like a sine wave or something. Its slow and again it really gives of an "aftermath" vibe.

It's a medley of Somewhere over the Rainbow and What a Wonderful World by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. Gorgeous song. It's been used in gazillions of ads, tv programmes and films. YouTube linky here.

Its a kinda dancey song, a girl sings it and its usually always on spin
some of the words are:
'everybody, get to the dancefloor, we're gonna rock it, cos thats what we're here for'.
It is killing me who sings it and what its called. Any ideas??

Stocious

its got a great tune, only ever heard it a couple of times over the stereos in the Celt bar on talbot street. only lyrics i can recall are:
"I'll be on the pension very shortly and I'll live for yesterday"........not much to go on but who knows....

lol don't be so quick to thank me, funny feeling I'm wrong....it's not "Let me think about it" anyway.

[edit] Ah, now I know how I got mixed up...the track you want is by some lot called Freaks and the tune is called The Creeps (the title of le Grand's last release)
