Right I know this is a very long shot but maybe someone can help. If anyone has seen the play 'Bouncers' that was on in the Theatre Royal in Waterford, do you know the name of the song that was played during the fight scene?

Oh man this song has been wrecking my head too! My sister was listening to xmas fm today and said it is by someone called Sinead McNally, and it's called Nearly Christmas. Looked her up and she has a FB page where she talks about a new song she has out called 'Dance with Me' but no reference to her Christmas song except to mention the fact that another Xmas radio station were playing it. Went on their site, and they don't give any info about their tracklist either (nor do xmas fm) so I'm lost!! I have texted xxmas fm over the weekend, and sent them an e-mail to find out what it was, I love it so much, but can't get anything back. Will post if I find out, but would love to hear any update on where to get it in the meantime. Thanks!

Was listening to XMAS FM and heard a song with these lyrics

"Can you feel it, it's nearly here now, it's nearly christmas time
Ring those bells, shout out loud, Santa getting ready to leave"

Sounded a bit like a Irish choir doing it....i think

Any help if they know it?

Thanks

Strike all that I just found it on itunes - download the single for 99 cent!

I'm trying to find the name of a song by Florence and the machine. I heard it on a tv add for her newest album and the little bit I have heard has been stuck on my head for the last few days. Can't really make out the lyrics apart from maybe"lay me down"? Sounds like a very up tempo kind of song and I'm sure it's very well known

Anyone know the name of the Guns n Roses song that plays in the Lynx TV Advert with Noah's Ark.

Thanks

I know Winter Song by Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson was originally released 3 years ago but I'm sure I've heard another song out before then with the same melody/phrasing. It's that part at the start of the verse "This is my Winter Song to you...". It's driving me crazy, In know I've heard it before. I think it was faster with a full drum beat behind it. AAAAAAGH!!!! Am I the only one???

It reminds me of Wonderful Life by Black

Ben Cocks - Birds and the Bees

goodolegill · 27-12-2011 2:28am

this really is a longshot but hoping someone might know!!

A dance song from about maybe 7 years ago - i know it was a european dj, pretty chilled out song but the video had a female dj getting ready for set. So doing make up, dressing up and closing scene is her closing hotel room with her dj gear

Anyone happen to know the name of the song - thanx in advance!!

Anyone know the tune Sky Atlantic are using to promote Cloudstreet?

Jess16 · 02-01-2012 1:55am

If anyone could please, please, pleeeeeeeease point me in the direction of an indie-pop sounding song that I think was floating about circa the 90's, very upbeat, quite a fast tempo, little bit of guitar and has the words "Don't stop me nowww, don't stop me nowwww" said fastly and repeated quite a lot (or at least that's what I think they're saying) -it came on at a party I was at last night as we were all zipping out the door into cabs and I forgot to ask what it was and it's been driving me crazy since!

PS: And no, it isn't Queen's 'Don't Stop Me Now' I'm thinking of

I heard this song this morning and immediately thought the same thing and it bothered me all day. I literally got a headache thinking about it, but I finally figured it out.

Could you be thinking of Dashboard Confessional's Ghost of a Good Thing? I haven't listened to Dashboard in years, but the two songs sound remarkably similar in the opening lines.

hey guys, i'm looking for help with a dance tune. its pretty old now, but its really famous, i heard it recently but it wasnt in a club and it was being played as if it was an oriental song, just being played on chimes or something. (the cover of it).

the actual song reminds me a lot of Mauro

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn73q9l3ILw

and maybe has hints of Robert Miles Children. i'd say the song is from a similar era to the Piccotto song. thanks a mil guys

I heard a song sounding remarkably similiar to we speak no americano by yolanda be cool in diceys last nite.same genre of music bein remixed (same sounding instruments). in fact you could be mistaken for thinking its a remix of no speak ameriicano initially. the lyrics 'same same' are repeated alot in it, if that narrows it down for anyone. any help finding this song would be appreciated!

Thanks
