    Hi everybody this is a real long shot but I will give it a shot and see if someone knows :)

    Does anyone remember the theme tune for RTÉ's live showjumping from Salthill, Dublin and Millstreet used from the late 80's until at least 1999. I used love it when I was younger can still hear the tune in my head to this day but Google and YouTube have come up blank. So I'm hoping someone can recall the tune and possibly who it was by. Thanks

    Does anyone know who sings the song "Hello Caroline", at least I think it's called that. It's been on the radio a few times lately but I keep missing the band & Shazaam doesn't know it. I think it's an Irish band.

    Epic macslash, knew I'd heard it somewhere else too. Thanks for that. Show is on tonight as well and looks like it might be worth watching for anyone interested.

    I can't think of this song I heard on TG4 one day. It was on one of their ads, probably a sports ad, but it's definitely not a rage against the machine song.

    It has a trumpet in it. There's a trumpet solo, at least I think it's a trumpet. And theres a cool drum beat behind it.

    The trumpet goes from low to high going ... daa, da, da, da, da, daaaaaaa..... Then from high to low again ..dadada, daaa, dada, dadada daaaaaaa ... Very difficult to play it out :P

    It's definitely a famous sound. Might not be a turmpet, but I'm sure most would recognise it when they hear it, just I don't know the name of it.

    Hi there,

    Heard it on O'Gorman tonight. I think it's a beautiful sounding song. It starts at 23:45.

    Would appreciate it if anybody knew!

    Thanks!

    A song that's on the ad for Sky Sports in 3D, the one where Peter Crouch puts 3D glasses on at the end. Its classical music; might be Mozart. Its the ad where the camera is very close to the ball on the pitch. Anyone know what I'm talking about?


  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭connacht100


    Anyone know the song thats played some nights on Newstalk around 10, I think usually for Coleman at large, its a female singer, think its a 90s song and she kinda sounds foriegn, it goes do du, do du, do du do du, do du du du du du da X2, and then she starts to sing, sorry for being so vague.......

    I thinks its Tom's Diner by Suzanne Vega.

    Does anyone know what the song used in the RTE UEFA Supercup promo is? It sounded like one of those rap dance combos and it had a lot of ba da de ba da da. Sorry for being a bit vague. Thanks in advance.......

    I may be wrong and may be thinking of another ad entirely but is it Clint Mansell Requiem for a Dream?

    Think its Heart of Courage by Two Steps From Hell.

    Lux Aeterna was used on the ryder cup ad(and more besides) a few years ago.... sort of similar to heart of courage alright...Lux aeterna is still better (and the film is just as good too) Heart of courage just lacking in epicessness when compared to Lux Aeterna!

    Anyone know this song

    "was it you that said you'd had enough, you were through the game was way too rough...."

    kinda has a country western/Bread's Goodbye Girl vibe to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    There is a song, with a line in it that goes something like "it's not cocaine running through my brain" it's about love and the feeling of being drunk on love. I thought it was richard ashcroft but I can't find anything on google.

    Any help much appreciated. :)

    Anyone know the song to an ad by the paint company "Crown"? I just saw it there, two children are in a bedroom and there are paint effects on the wall.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,608 ✭✭✭✭The Princess Bride


    Don't hold out much hope for this- from the early 80s,I think.
    Either Eclipse by the group Epilogue or Epilogue by Eclipse.(male singer)
    I remember it being played on RTE Radio 2 , and think they were Irish, a haunting slow song.
    (Am not dreaming:o,Larry Gogan's my next option.)

    Long shot i know but can anyone tell me the artist or name of the song that was at the start of O'Gorman last Sunday night - it was the Salthill episode.

    http://www.rte.ie/player/#!v=1109889

    It was a humming theme kinda song (not the intro music to the show)

    any help appreciated...
