    There is a song that plays where I work and the lyrics go like such:

    "White Gold, Rose Gold, Yellow Gold ...... Solid Gold. I love it aaaahhh" and this repeats multiple times.

    There is another part: "Tricked out.... solid gold" Which also repeats multiple times.

    It's a male voice and a bit of a techno beat.

    Endless lyric searches on google have gotten me nowhere, so I'm hoping some kind soul on here might know it.

    Thank you!!

    Have this song I know, but can't think of the name.

    It''s a poppy-dance song from 2016 with a very catchy 'why ee ii....' at the start of the chorus.

    It's the 3rd of 3 tracks in this video - https://www.facebook.com/185038271911881/videos/255515458197495/

    September by Earth, Wind and Fire is the original tune, must have been remixed recently if it was popular last year :)

    After 2 years, I heard a song I've been wanting to find out the name of on the radio today. It's an 80s/90s song, I know that as a fact. And it has like a Flashdance.... What A Feeling style of pop. I remember the male singer in it shouting like "changes!!!" or "changing!!!". I don't know exactly but something along those lines. I have tried millions of songs with them in the title including David Bowie's Changes. Unfortunately, no luck. This song has been daunting me for many years 'cause I don't know the title of it yet I love it so much.

    Folks- hoping you can help with this one. There's a song currently playing on radio stations. It's a duet between a man and a woman. What's unique about it is that not a lot musically happens, for the duration of the song there's just a piano playing and the tune doesn't vary too much. Any ideas?

    My apologies but it's always on when I'm driving so can't shazam and the presenters never announce who it is.

    Found it, it's actually an old Rhianna song from a few years ago.

    What was the theme tune of the Second Captains Live TV series that was broadcast on RTÉ 2 in 2015?

    It starts 28 seconds into the following recording on YouTube.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7Y8QCZEEXc

    Part of it goes: "Don't waste my time to find some voodoo..."

    I saw an advert for Endeavour on be3 today and the music in the background has been driving me insane! It sounds like violins and the kind of music you'd hear in a dramatic scene. I recognise it from somewhere! Please help

    I realised I could rewind and use Shazam for this. The song was called "On the nature of daylight" and I heard it on the movie Arrival recently.

    Heard one this morning on Today FM. It sounds post 90's, female vocalist, funky and a bit stompy, lots of what sounds like trumpet...a bit like Da da da-da da...da-da-da-da (OK I realise that's probably no help at all). I heard it back-announced and then promptly forgot the names again. Any help appreciated. I can't remember any lyrics from it, it was the sound that hooked me.

    Back in the 90's No Disco played a Neil Hannon track repeatedly.Think the video far as I remember was set on a beach? And featured Neil himself looking moody.
    Any ideas what it might be.Obviously this track would be from his first couple albums before he made it huge.

    .

    Can someone help with identifying the 'music' in an ad for mental health issues, it shows a woman floating, returning to the ground slowly.. in an everyday kitchen. The ad currently (March/April 2017) runs on RTE 1.

    The audio is just a bar or two of poignant piano. I'm convinced it is from a Film, an odd one at that, 'Let The Right One In' (original version)

    Anyone care to put me on the right track, it is driving me to distraction!

    I know, I know it..

    ---

    Apologies for the single thread, I can't seem to find a, 'help with ad/music' specific thread. Might be an idea to have a dedicated, what's that audio thread..

    Anyone know if this piece of music was sampled in a dance tune in the last 15/20 years? It sounds really similar.

    The part I'm referring to starts around the 1min mark.
