I'd love it also.. but not a sniff of it anywhere.

Probably we'll have to wait for the album in July.

Pre-ordered the album!! I came in here a few weeks back to find a song, another by Florence and the Machine 'Dog Days Are Over' and then the one for the O2 ad. I had a feeling it was her. Guessing the album will be good!

What's the name of the girl group and the one song they had that was managed by Simon Fuller (I think) as a side project to Spice Girls and the video was kinda Mad Max looking (I think)?

Hey,

This is more than likely a pityful attempt at remembering the lyrics to this song but sure I'll give it a go (I'm probably way off but hopefully someone will get it!!)

It was like this i think.....

"You can make sooooouuund,
I've had it in boooound"

I've heard it on the radio a bit recently but I never catch the name of it. Be delighted if someone knew what it was!

Cheers.

I did see it [RAW] but I didn't recognise the tune.
According to RTE it is The World Is Yours by Ian Browne.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone know the name of the song that is played during RTE's Champions League analysis, usually where they come back from a break and Billo goes through what's coming up on RTE Sport for the coming week? There are no words, it's just music...I think it's quite like something Keane would do but can't find it in any of their songs.

Unfortunately can't find an example of it on RTE's Media Player archive that would help. Any ideas?

There's this song I've had in my head a lot lately. I've been looking for the song for years now (on and off that is). It has the same drum beat as the famous Tears for Fears song "Everybody Wants To Rule The World". Other than that, it is a completely different song with a very catchy theremin sound in the chorus. The theremin sound is slightly similar to that heard in the famous Beach Boys song Good Vibrations. From what I can remember, the lead singer was a female. The song I am on about is a very pleasent, summery kind of tune. If any of you could tell me what this song is I would be very grateful?

Wikipedia is one of the first places I looked as it does, to a certain extent mention what songs have been sampled and what songs have sampled. I also checked www.whosampled.com and there was no luck there. Additionally, I tried one of these sites which searches for songs based on humming and musical notation and still no joy. Smart Alec! It's been stuck in my head for ages. The song I am on about was playing in the background in Dunnes Stores, Cornelscourt on a few occassions. It has the same drum beat as "Everybody Wants To Rule The World, it had a distinct theremin* chorus and I am fairly sure the lead vocalist was female. The song was definitely of the pop genre and was a very catchy and pleasent tune.

*Theremin: An instrument prominently used in The X-Files theme tune. It was also used in "Good Vibrations" by The Beach Boys on the chorus.

There was no Theremin in the X-Files theme tune! Just a crappy synth whistly sound.
