    I was in River Island last friday and they were playing a song with 'mexico' in the chorus. I know that is almost nothing to work with but it might spark off with someone ... :)

    thanks

    Mexico by Mundy?

    thanks for the reply tickle_me_elmo,

    Sorry I should of said its not Mundy, incubus, jefferson airplane, cake, Toby Keith or James Taylor. I dont think the song is called mexico but it is repeated a few times in it.
    I cant really remember much about it, I assumed it was relatively new since I never heard it before but I guess alot of the music River Island play is not the kind you hear often on the radio? I don't go there too often either

    Guys i heard a song on the radio the other day and i think the woman said it was by Buffalo Springfield so I went through the songs I could find on youtube and I couldnt find it.

    It was done on acoustic guitar, with a tiny bit of electric n one part and also some banjo in there. there were also some vocal harmonies in parts and a constant gallopy drum beat.

    I cant remember the lyrics but I think they were something about an old man??

    Any help appreciated!

    I wonder can anyone help me with this one?? It was a song that I heard on Ray Darcy's show about 4-5 years ago. They were an Irish band maybe with "Family" in their name and the chorus went something like " but my luck is about to change"??

    Cheers for the effort but no thats not it. Some Ray Darcy Show fanatic out there is my best shot of solving this I d say..

    Hopefully ok to post this here....possible wild goose chase. Looking for the name of a sonic youth that had a pulsing electronic beat behind it (not typical for them, I know) if my memory serves me correctly. I imagine this song is pre 2004.

    Thanks in advance for any help guys.

    Any ideas of the backing music in this Iphone4 ad??

    To me it sounds like a knock off of Dog Days Are Over by Florence & The Machine. Every time I see that add I expect Florence to start singing.

    Guy theres a new advert for this on sky and im on a quest to find out what the song in the background is. Its the ad for Sky1 HD and it start by one of the cast saying I Love You and scenes of others putting on war paint by a swimming pool. The song is acoustic and slow with a male singer with a deep voice.
