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

Think the song you're after is Fountains of Wayne - Radiation Vibe. From their self titled debut album.
Can't post a video but I'm sure you'll find it handy enough

New Budweiser ad? I recognise the song from another ad but still don't know the name of it.

Think you're on about 'You! Me! Dancing!' by Los Campesinos.

Can anyone tell me the name of the song on the radio these days thats sort of like a rap song with a woman singing it,,, i cant remember many of the lyrics but it names a load of famous people, 1 of which is al pacino.

I searched through the current chart list and cant see it.

I saw a music video about year ago, and I can't remember any details of the name or anything.

The singer was a young black guy,the video took place on a plane. In the course of the video he left the plane in mid-flight, and was walking around on clouds and stuff. His ex-girlfriend was an air traffic controller and sent bad weather and stuff to hassle him. It was a pretty great video.

Here's a hard one and one I've been trying to find the answer to for years. What is the song thats playing Ghostbusters when they're driving across the bridge, just before Winston starts talking to Ray about biblical prophecy? Its such a funky tune. It starts at 1.16 in this video, anyone know what it is?

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?

Would this be it? The vocal is in Spanish and starts @2.25secs

Hi all, would really appreciate some help with this!

Looking for a song, I've heard it a few times on the soundtrack for different movies (I swore it was on in Sleepers but it doesnt seem to be on that list)

Its an old song, possibly 50's or 60's and is sung by a few men in a harmony (like the drifters or someone like that)

lyrics are something like
"our love sha wop sha wop wop, is a special kind of love sha wop sha wop"

Its driving me crazy because ive heard it so many times

Any help appreciated!!

Need help.. been bugging me all day.. not my usual style of music, but I heard it earlier on a program as background music..

Its a recent hit.. US black singer (big guy iirc).. the video is filmed in a diner in the US..
Its kinda a poppy soul song .. Somewhat similar to a mix of northern soul and the Paulo Nutini (sp?) guy...

It was a big hit here and in the US within the last 6 months or so i am thinking..

Help

NM.. found it.. Cee Lo Green - F**k You

Might possibly be the new Jenifer Lopez song that uses words or a portion of the Lambada?

What's the music at the end of this ad?

shefellover93

What's the one that plays at the end of the new Acer tablet ad?

There's a sky one as well with Arthur sailing off to sea on his deathbed, and then he's shown the wonders of sky tv and miraculously recovers, there's a piece of music at the end of that, sounds like something out of a movie, any clues?

Can anyone help me? I was at a gig the other night and the support act did a cover of a song, he said the name of it but I forgot it. I got some of the lyrics, goes something like "accusations flying like confetti at a wedding".
