    Okay here we go again.

    I'm looking for a rap song. Its a old enough song, it starts off with really creepy music.

    Thanks. :)

    No, thanks very much for trying. It's not a white artist or biggie, 2pac, 50, or Xezibit. I think it's someone that sounds similar to coolio.

    "I say goodbye, just to say hello"

    I was at a party the other night & they played a decent enough Christmas tune by Cliff Richard.

    It was from before Misletone & wine.

    I'd say it was from the late 1980s.

    It wasn't Saviours Day.

    It seemed a decent enough pop tune.

    Piano instrumental used on the rte sports awards just now introducing Henry shefflin. I've heard it in a few shows recently, very slow/sombre tempo. Anyone any ideas?

    Anyone know the name of this song? Ignore the voices because I believe they're part of a wrestling promos that were edited over the instrumental piece.

    There are 2 classical music songs going through my head, cant think of the names of them! One is that oboe instrumental that used to be on the Aer Lingus ad, the other was on an kleenex ad (I think) years ago, it shows a boy and a girl running through narrow streets somewhere foreign!!! Sorry I cant pinpoint it any further!

    EDIT: Yet another one, the one off the old British airways ad aswell!

    Bit of a vague one here. There's this piece of classical music stuck in my head, it might be in an ad for something, not sure, but the start of it is maybe a cello playing quite low notes, just a short melody repeated a few times, then the rest of the instruments come in???


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭Joshua J


    Was song at the end of the F1 coverage today. Male vocals lyrics went some thing like:

    "To those dreams when we were young
    keep on shining when your gone
    you were always my number one"

    or some thing like like.

    This might be it...

    That's not it, but quite helpful none the less as it wiped the other tune completely from my head and then I realised what it actually was, which was this....



    Not a classical piece at all! :)

    Who sings the song on the trailer for the next series of "Raw"? The same song was also used for the trailer on "The Movie Show"? It sounds like:

    Ah-Ah-Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

    Oh-Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

    Why does RTÉ use tunes the singers of which most viewers don't know for trailers of its programmes?

    Furthermore I remember the song that was used by RTÉ as the soundtrack of its coverage of the 1996 Summer Olympics. It sounded African and its lyrics sounded like:


    Aye aye aye, oh aye aye aye
    Oh aye aye aye aye aye aye aye aye aye aye

    Sounds like this.



    Is that a seperate song you're asking about from the Olympics?

    Maybe this?

    I was watching the Horse Racing Documentary Jump Boys on TG4 last night and there was uptempo indie song played about halfway through as they were talking to Davy Russell

    There was a guitar solo in it. I have heard the song before but can't think of the name of it. Could anyone help?
