The "What's That Song" Thread [ PLEASE READ ]

Anyone know the names of the songs that are on the ad for Jenny Greens Electric disco on 2fm?

The ad is for her play at the Metropolis nightclub in Wexford and she is playing dance classics.
I'm particularly looking for the name of the last song on that ad. There all trancy/dancy songs.

I still can't find out

This is driving me mad.

Song I've heard a few times during the past week but can never make out the lyrics clearly enough to remember. Dance/folk song which starts off with a whistling sound and then proceeds to lyrics about the sun and the sky and so on? Any ideas?

The whistling intro/folk/sun theme is making me think of Kodaline - Love Like This?

definitely a stab in the dark with this one.

female singer, new enough song, kinda light electro/pop, lyrics she sings in the chorus similar to "what you've done to me, done to me" or something, google is returning nothing

What's the instrumental track at the very start of this? It crops up on BBC's docus all the time.

Nope not this!

Actually forget folk, it's most definitely dance! Still haven't found it Anyone?

Can anyone name this tune that is playing in the background?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8mlis3r07g

There is a constant voice over so music recognition app can't get it.

Thanks

Is it Aviccis "Wake Me Up" or "Hey Brother"? Both dancey and folky

Reon

i dont know any lyrics but the music video is where guy and girl is in a hotel or something and the girl wakes up and leaves him a note and she goes off then he reads it and runs after her eventually he catches up to her and she shoots him cause she warned him not to chase after her

Reon

found it it was fade into darkness

This is a bit of long shot here. Think the song might be out a while as I remember hearing it a while back but have caught it on the radio twice in the last two days.
Female singer, fairly quiet instrumentals, just the vocals that build into a fairly uplifting chorus.
Only lyrics I can remember are form the chorus which are 'I can be your...' or 'Let me be your...' or both. If I could get the extra word I'd be sorted for a google search.

Found it.
Its Royals by LORDE.

Today FM played a song by The Hoosiers this morning at about half 8 but I didn't catch the name of it and its proving difficult to find. It doesn't sound like your typical poppy hoosier song and its mostly based on loud piano. Makes a lot of reference to the word "church" or religion in general if I remember correctly.

Haha the song was "Hoziers - Take me to church"

I kinda knew it wasn't The Hoosiers since it sounded nothing like them. Thought they had completely changed genre when I heard it this morning. Obviously just misheard the name of the band!

Can someone help me with this? Listen to about the first 30 seconds of the tune below. I'm convinced it's a sample of some dance song (probably late 90's early 00's) but I can't find any reference to a sample when I google. The beats are familiar but especially the "ah-ah-ah" background singing at around 0:25

^ You might know it from the insurance ad on the telly? Can't think of which company it's for but all the people are standing in a row handing things to each other....

I checked this on whosampled.com which is a database for sampled songs and it seems there is no sample in this song.
