What year was it do you think, when you were listening to it as a child? Rough idea might help someone to pin it down

That'll narrow it down, I'll have a google and see if I come up with anything, Fats Waller is my first thought, but can't think of the song

Would anyone know the song from the three family plans ad ? The lyrics in the ad are “on the right side, on the on the right side”. Not much to go off I know. Link:

It's this one, Irish collab between Soulé, Elaine Mai and Sorcha Richardson

90's dance track. Heard today on the radio (no luck with Shazam while it was on) and I know I had a note of it years ago but since lost it. Google search keeps throwing up Fatboy Slim but it is definitely not Fatboy Slim. Lyrics go something along the lines of the below and keep repeating with some good dance music in background. This is definitely 90's dance song - something you would have heard on ClubFM or the likes.

right here right now - say it again. Give it up yeah movin on.

Cheers for any help.

It doesn't ring a bell, but I'm wrecked so brain slow today.

If you're on Twitter, @DecPierce would definitely help you, he's one of the best and friendliest DJs out there.

I'm trying to find the band for vivid song which I cannot place, An Irish band. The chorus line is "They will pull you down", and "don't miss out on your..". Any ideas?

Any clue what kinda genre we are talking? And is it new or old to the best of your knowledge?

MudBath · 12-03-2021 10:41pm

Thanks @reap-a-rat. It's 1990's I am pretty sure. There is a Youtube video I had before but can't find. Genre - I'd put it with Fat-Lady-Sings/Arclight as a level - just a nice sound-scape. The video had the construct of kids standing-up against the odds etc.

I'll keep thinking but just on the off-chance that its right - it's not Manic Street Preachers If You Tolerate This by any chance? It doesn't really fit to your description but was the first thing that popped into my head.

Found it - The Brilliant Trees - "Talent"

A song that came out the summer of 1996. Female artist. Think the lyrics sounded something with the lines "precious love".

Never found the song years of trying.

Anyone know what this is, I'm sure it's well known but I just can't place it. Tried Shazam but no joy. It was just background music on a TV show. Thanks.

Thanks, I've hopefully fixed it so it's public

Still private, you can set it to unlisted too and as long as you provide the link it'll be ok.

Not much to go on! Kinda reminds me of that Goo Goo Dolls one.

Edit: Iris.

No luck on Shazam or Soundhound, they can usually pick up songs from just a few seconds so it may just be some sample music chords
