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

Beta Ray Bill

Anyone know the name of that song where the guy is dancing on the street on like a mat or piece of car board?

basically the title at the start goes something like "his only love left him and now he dances to bring her back"

The Music video cuts to him dnacing as a kid and then as a middle aged man.

its a 90's job

hard to google as there is no lyrics. its pretty much a dance song.

Yep.. it is actually.

Catchy little song.. I do remember the video when it was first out - it's one of those original videos that sticks with you.

This was when it was released back in 1995.

Anyone know the song in the Goal ad on RTE2?

bugler

I have snippets of a track I heard recently in a shop. If anyone can name it I'd be grateful.

The lyrics weren't easy to hear, they were lost in the music a bit. There weren't many either, I noted at the time the "lyrics were sparse", and there was "a long instrumental outro".

As for the lyrics, they included the line "you've got summers to see". At least that's what it sounded like. There was also a "to be" in the track somewhere. Vague I know!

Cheers.

'Chelsea Dagger' by The Fratellis, maybe?


I saw an ad on the Sky News channel a few times over the last couple of days for a hair restoration/transplant clinic. The song is a really mellow piano piece. I think I heard it in a movie before. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks in advance
