No, I should mention it was a female vocalist and she sounded like Beth Gibbons but I can't find any song in their discog afaik. It was definitely a mid 90s song.

There was an ad around 10 years ago on TV / radio. I think it could have been a Centra / Vodafone type ad, or possibly just a generic Today FM one.

It was a pop-indie rock type song by what I think was an Irish band and as far as I know it is their only known song. I have a feeling it was something like The Vagabonds - Come On.

Can't find it in all my searches

Without much to go on, might I suggest Sunburst by Picturehouse?

Anyone know the name of the song that's being played on the current RTE Sport GAA ad?

It starts off: "I want it all..." Can't catch any more of it..

Lads there was a song on 2fm at about 5.30pm from jenny green. Great tune. Played at electric picnic few years ago. Anyone know what the song was?

Sean.3516 · 15-08-2019 12:53am

I'm trying to find the name of a song that's been playing on the radio literally all of the time, also it's on some tv ad although i can't remember which one.

It's like a disco/house kind of tune and has this brilliant trumpetty/brass sound during the chorus. I've literally gone through every song in the charts and can't find it.

The chorus goes a bit like:

DunDunDun

Dun--Dun

Duuuuuuuuuuuunnnn and repeats ( again it's got that trumpetty sound ) hope that helps��

I can't believe it wasn't in the Top 50 considering it's playing on the radio every 5 mins.

The replay of her show will be on the 2fm website tomorrow, just scroll to around 2hrs 30 mins in and you should find it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUcL2sQWzMc is the original

The song you heard is probably from the event they are talking about here so there is unlikely to be any version of that on the usual places - https://www.rte.ie/entertainment/2016/0905/814274-jenny-greene/

Heard a song on iradio last night about 1020pm.

Checked their website for playback, but seems to be no dj show at that time so can't listen back.

There was a song that seemed to have a chorus with the words 'on and on' repeated a fair bit.

Would describe the music as a mix between oasis and maybe a synth drumbeat backing.

Any ideas? Searched their playlist, the top40, YouTube etc and nothing.

The Princess Bride · 18-08-2019 2:06pm

I would love to think it's Wild Youth, Can't Move On, but the chance of you not having heard it before Friday are surely slim, as it was a massive hit last year.

But just in case, and because I love them

NIMAN · 18-08-2019 6:51pm

Thanks Princess,but that's not it.
Know that song for sure.

The1974guy · 25-08-2019 7:48pm

I guess this is the section to ask this question: Does anybody know the name of the song used in the An Post ads (featuring Angela Scanlon). It's really catchy and I've searched again and again for a clue. Google etc can't seem to narrow it down

A song I heard yesterday that I tried to identify with soundhound but it didn't work, maybe I wasn't close enough. And then at home I tried to google the lyrics and that didn't work either.

Goes something like "run better run, better run for cover" in the chorus, female vocalist. No guitars, keyboard based. Sounded a bit like Saint Etienne. Maybe theres a "deliver me" in there as well before the chorus bit.

Cracking me up the last few days

Fitz* · 26-10-2019 10:51am

Maybe a cover of 'Pumped up kicks' by foster the people?

I got there in the end but probably impossible to figure out. I'm based in Sweden and I think it is some obscure swedish track. Its on spotify and youtube but not many listens

Run Devil Run by Eden Maze was the answer.

It was playing in the gym I go to earlier today and soundhound couldn't identify it but I captured 30 seconds of it and used some website that reads mp3s to identify tracks. That worked...

This is my method when Shazam and Soundhound don't pick up a song, I have whatsapp group I created with a friend, then removed the friend and now I've a group to just keep notes and stuff in, so just recorded this off Radio Na Life last night, time stamp on the file name too which is handy. If anyone can ID it, please let me know

HalloweenJack · 13-02-2020 7:05pm

I've a song stuck in my head that's something like a cross between these two:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4VeFDehD08

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deqUWwL92vg

It almost sounds like a duel between two women singing. The vocals are more like the second song while the guitar sound is similar to the first one but a bit quicker. I think it might have been called something like "Melody in D" or something like that. Any help would be appreciated.

Not seen the ad as im in the US but is it One Republic - Wherever I go?

Fitz* · 22-02-2020 9:40pm

Looking for the name of the (I think) instrumental wild western song. It's a very fast guitar song, while growing in tempo. Has that 'ding taka ding taka ding' sound. Kind of like the sound similar to the deliverance dueling Banjos song. I have a feeling it's something like the rascals but YouTube is not returning any results.

Anyone know the song I am on about?

Eod100 · 26-03-2020 7:40pm

Trying to find what I thought was a Ben Howard song. Think there might be woman at times on vocals. Its 6 or 7 mins long I think and finishes with outro of a piano after gap between end of song and it. Could have sworn it was on I Forget Where We Were but no joy! Anyone know what I'm on about?! Thanks a lot!

cormie · 27-03-2020 12:39am

RobTheLad · 21-04-2020 11:50pm

Heard a remix of a song on Spin's Saturday night takeover last weekend when driving home from work.

Was a mash up of Meduza's lose control and Route 94 My Love which is a few years old. Been stuck in my head since and I've searched everywhere online, but haven't found it.

nyarlothothep · 18-05-2020 4:46pm

Hey, does anyone know the song/band that did this: it used to be played on Phantom FM in the year 2000/2001, they were an indie band and the song was quite distorted, there was a drum solo groove in the middle of the song.

Shaque attack · 18-05-2020 9:41pm

2fms song of the week playlist has some sirens song on it. Irish band. Any ideas?
