OK so I finally have a clip of this instrumental, I know someone can help!
It's starts from 1.05 to 2.05 approx! I would love to get a title for this beautiful track that I hear everywhere but don't know

Thanks in advance if someone can help *excitement*

I've heard a song in a supermarket and I'm trying to find name of it.

There's a woman/girl singing in a Foreign Language but I'm pretty sure she only sings a chorus as i remember it being mainly maybe a club music song.

all I can vaguely remember is the lyrics being something like:
"weeeee del um del ai"

and then the next line being something similar like:
"ceeeeee del um del ai"
or maybe it was:
"oh del um del ai"

It didn't sound particularly spanish but I'm not sure. Given the words are so vague in my head.

I tried humming into midomi.com but not luck.

It doesn't have that usual drum beat that is in most dance music songs (the kind you can jump/exercise easily to) from what I remember.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Maybe this? There's been a few different versions / mixes of it over the years . . .

I reckon your looking for "Sunchyme" by Dario G which is a remix of "Life in a Northern Town" by dream academy

Slydice · 03-04-2011 10:49AM

no luck there, I'm thinking maybe it's a spanish song but it didn't sound like the spanish language, more like a middle eastern or asian language

Anyone know the name of that annoying song in the TK-maxx ad?

Anybody know the ad in the new KFC advert, something about family. Sounds a bit like Adele kind of style but I'm pretty sure it's not her.

I think it's an Irish band, and i'm fairly sure it's not Royseven, only part of the song i can describe is just before the chorus the singer goes "Woah, woah, woah, woah, 1 2 3 4..." and some fast singing... Savage song, heard it on Beat (Waterford) a few times, and they won't text me back!

Found it!

Total guess here but is it "Rocky Took A Lover" by Bell X1? I can't find the proper video on youtube but I remember there being little cartoon characters in it.

These guys...

You can hear the song in this video

Question of my own though. Anybody know what's the music in the Sky Atlantic promo for Game of Thrones?

KnifeWRENCH · 05-04-2011 08:08PM

This is a very vague description so I'm not sure if anyone will know what I'm on about. But I'm looking for a dance/electronic track, where the only lyrics (afaik) are a woman, half-singing/half-whispering the words "I love it". She has an accent, so it sounds more like "Eye luff eeet."

I think it was out in the '90's, and it was used on TV ads and stuff (but I can't remember what for, of course >.<)

If anyone knows what I'm on about, it would be great. I'm starting to worry I completely made this song up!

hmmmm, not as full bodied a voice as shakira but maybe a little similar

not much heavy bass or drums. I'd say it's a dance song, at medium speed

Is it this music?
(I don't know what it is, just making sure it's the right ad)

jill_valentine · 06-04-2011 12:21AM

No, I'm afraid not. It's got a neat little guitar hook - almost Nine In Nail-ish, I think? - and ends with the image of the throne with wings superimposed.

Can't even find the same ad on youtube, funny enough.

EDIT: Although it is on Sky Atlantic's own website, duh Jill.

Looking for a dance track with the lyrics 'live your life, live your sexy life'.
It is NOT Rihanna, thanks.

I need some serious help with a song. It was used maybe 3/4 years ago * (that's very rough guessing btw) on an RTE 2 advert to promote some tv shows. It's not the one with Intervention by Arcade Fire. It sounded kinda like Johnny Cash, and I think it had something about a highwayman. Googled it, but couldnt find it. Please help!

13 seconds in, driving me mad

It's Jon Hopkins - Autumn Hill. Thank you Soundhound, I was just about able to get enough with no voiceovers after 20 minutes trying

joulter · 10-04-2011 04:27PM

looking for a song i heard yesterday. Kind of mid 90s downtempo/trip hop with a string section,female vocals sounds a bit like bjork

No,I know that song, The Man Comes Around! (Great song btw

) Nah it was kind of somber and slow? And I'm sure the inger says something about higwayman or maybe a highway?

Nah, another great song (I ran into lot of Cash looking for this

) so it's possible it isn't him...sounded very like him though.

i was listening to nova two days ago. a song came on and in the lyrics the band was singing "shine on" alot. someone said it might be primal scream but i dont think it was and its nothing like the kooks song shine on
