Normally I hate rap, but this song (and video) is awesome:

if we talk about awesome videos, personally i really like this
music is kinda experimental

Daniel Merriweather - Red (Live Lounge version)

After only listening to this song on the radio I was sure that he said grey not red

Muse - Blackout

Foo Fighters - Best of You

Levon Helms blasting "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" by The Band:

Killing in the Name Of - Rage Against The Machine (plus load of other Rage songs)

Really liking the Killers at the moment.
Loving this song (Goodnight, Travel Well)

different gravy

A bit too computer enhanced for me

Jamie Cullum doing something a bit special

Manic Street Preachers - If you tolerate this then your children will be next

Lostprophets - Where We Belong

Really liking Jamie Cullum right now:

Here's his cover of a Rihanna song, Don't stop the music

There's this one 80s song I heard the other day, that has an extremely well known melody.

I don't know any of the words, though.

It's pure crap. Garbage. 80s synth pop that no one in their right minds should listen to. But I'm obsessive so I won't stop until I find out what that goddamned song is.

So I've been trudging through youtube for days, listening to literally hundreds of 80s pop hits playlists. I feel like my brain is bleeding and my hair wants to tear itself out. Pop music is soul-crushingly awful, but 80s even more so.

But I just can't stop myself until I find out the name of that goddamned song.

I don't think it's by anyone famous, either. Just a guy with a slightly female-ish voice singing, being "answered" during the chorus by a choir of men and lots of synthesizer in the background.

That's it. Quintessentially 80s. Which may be why I can't find it.

Damn it, how can it be such a well known (and very crappy) chorus melody, yet I can't find it no matter how many "One hit wonders" and "80s hits" playlists I go through?

It doesn't help that I don't know any of the lyrics.


*bangs head on wall repeatedly for several hours*

A cookie to anyone who ends my suffering.

I know A-ha, yes, and I love to terrorize norwegians by reminding them that that's how the world sees their music

Kind of like Sweden with ABBA and Europe.

But it's not A-ha. The style is similar, though.

It could be maybe something from Erasure or "Smalltown boy" from Bronski Beat?

Nice guesses, but nope. It's something louder.


EDIT: FOUND IT! FINALLY!

And it's just as awful as I remembered it

I just had a flash "wait...that sounds like the singer from the band ________". And it was. That explains why I couldn't find it by searching a ton of "One hit wonders" and "80s hits" playlists....it's not from the 80s (even though it sounds more stereotypically 80s than anything else I've ever heard) and the band had a ton of hits

Just to be a d*** I'll leave you hanging now. Thanks for the tips

If it's Queen I may hurt you.
