Does anyone know the name of the song in the film 'road trip' when they are in the house with all the black dudes and coil, the small lad of the group starts dancing.

Who is it?

Glen Hansard from The Frames covered that song. It's on Ray D'arcy's "Even better than the real thing Vol 2" Although it may not be the one your hunting for

anyone know the song in the background of the video?

I'm sure everyone would know this song to hear but it's perhaps harder to explain.

Slow song, with male and female vocals, with a piano playing right through.

No singing really, just lyrics... Maintains the same rhythm for most of the song.

Male vocals sound really familiar but I can't put a name to it. Think it's quite popular at the moment.

"Cheating" is mentioned in it?

Thanks.

Ha. That's who I thought it was but when I checked wikipedia for collaborations there were no recent ones. Then I checked YouTube (same vid you linked) but it didn't play...

Cheers though dude, appreciate it.

tampler

I Understand if no one can answer this, its a hard one
But after last weeks episodes of grays anatomy and before this episodes, RTE had an ad for it, and I cant find the music that was in it. All I know is that these are a part of the lyrics:
"Dont feel me as your driving me crazy"
"i wanna wanna wanna wanna be your lady"
If anyone knows this song, I would be really grateful.

Could someone please tell me the name of that very distinctive piece of Irish trad that was used recently on RTE tv to advertise the Galway races. It was also used as the theme tune for an Irish schools quiz programme on RTE radio last year I think.
Thanks all:)

I'm not 100% but I think I saw the Galway races ad once and recognised the music as the song from the ending of Napoleon Dynamite..

Try Penguin Cafe Orchestra - Music For a Found Harmonium

Hermy

Absolutely spot on vb7000,
Never would have guessed this was the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. :eek: :rolleyes:

ifconfig

I heard this song today at lunchtime
I decided to be a bit resourceful and capture 20secs of it on my
mobile phone and see if I could upload the clip onto a podcasting
webspace.

http://www.evoca.com/myrecordings/my_recording.jsp?rid=95613

I find the lyrics a bit indistinct on account of the crappy AMR/8000Hz
audio capture on the phone.
Anyone recognize it ? Sounded a bit like Sade, jazzy female vocalist.

Anyone please... the music during the montage at the end of the British Open golf a couple of weeks ago when Padraig Harrington won. Sounded like Ronan Keating.

From this discussion it seems it was written specially for the ad.

Composer : Hans Elewaut

Singer from a Belgian group Flowers for Breakfast (who I think have since split).
Her name is Tina Reymer.

Here's the ad (albeit in a French site)

spurious,, thanks

Bukman13

ok I'm pretty sure that no-one will know who sings this song...

i've researched it and found nothing...

Its on the "Ford Focus Zetec" Ad

The lyrics go like this: ISH

"suddenly i feel like peter pan, like a boy trapped inside the man. first comes up, back down again. i remember back again"

i'll say again the lyrics are similar to this not 100%. The last part is more dodge...

Any help.....:)

Peyton Manning

Not sure if anyone can help but on Beat FM theyre playing a song a lot lately. Its a bit slow, male singer and possible a band. Theres parts where he sings 'Im not the only one' and something about 'breaking so ordinarily' I think... I thought I heard the DJ say the word 'tarantino' when saying the name/title of the song (was on a bus so couldnt hear too well) and have now heard that theres a band in wexford who have this name?

Any help appreciated...

New artist hitting the scene but popular before

Dreadlocks in a black and white video and with a guitar and photos falling at his feet with an uplifting chorus with lyrics like

'do what ever i want etc etc '

Much appreciated
