openSong I heard a while ago Music
I only remember a few things about the song. The singer had a very soft voice, and I believe it had a chorus that went something like "When the band is playing/When the drums are playing/It feels like [something?? maybe "the sun"] is standing still". I can't find anything when I look it up :(
resolved "Soldier" song Music
This
joke video is an I. M. Meen-themed parody of some song I don't know. I can barely make out any of the original lyrics under the vocals there, the title "one meen soldier" is too generic for any leads, YouTube's auto-music finder didn't turn up anything, and it's the video itself has barely any views, resulting in only one comment that isn't a reference.
What song is this?
openAnti-drug rap song circa 1989 Music
- Heard it on a cassette tape probably around 1988 - 1991
- Anti-drug rap song to keep kids off drugs
- A single male rapper is all I remember
- I remember some specific lyrics (might not be correct, my memory isn't perfect!)
- "You can soar like a hawk, fly like an eagle ... [something something] is just not legal"
- "[something something something], smoking dope ain't cool. Sticking something up your nose, you're lookin like a fool"
- I tried searching the web for these lyrics and I can't find it. There are more anti-drug raps from this era than I expected so I appreciate any help!
resolved A song from the 80s about a guy scared of a monster Music
A few months ago, I was riding in my friend's car when a song came onto a radio station that only plays sons from The '80s that really stuck with me that I unfortunately can't remember the name of. It's basically about this one guy who thinks about a monster and is worried about it coming for him, so he calls his friend to tell them about it, only to hear them get eaten by the monster over the phone.
openA song that i preformed with the whole school in elementary school Music
When I was in grade 1, in the year 2006, our school did a parade, and at the end after it we preformed a song. The parade was themed to the earth. The only lyrics to the song I remember are, there so much we need to do to do to pitch in on our home. But the lyric might have been world.
Edited by zxdert123openSong about the "word" "fouk" Music
There was this techno song I heard around 2004 with a woman talking (not really singing, more just talking, maybe samples) about the word "fouk", which she said came from some Latin word, and one example she used is "If you spent your hard earned money on aspirin and you don't have a headache, say "fouk", as well saying "fouk is not to be confused with the more commonly used, and rather vulgar word describing the act of copulation" (or something like that, I've tried looking up the "lyrics" in quotes and turned up nothing.) Anyway, I think the song was just called "fouk" and I thought it would be really easy to find, but I can't. I'm also not sure if "fouk" is a real word, as it's not on dictionary.com. Might just be a word they coined for the song or something.

Edited by sassyelliott2403openSong I heard on Instagram Music
I heard this song on an Instagram post and can't remember the name. It's from the 80s-90s and one of the lyrics is "like we run things" or something like that.
resolved Song from the Karate kid Music
What song from the Karate Kid has the lyrics "Memories can fade so fast"?
openAPP 2000s/10s song with male vocalist and guitar, one lyric ended with “Tonight” Music
It wasn’t a super upbeat and poppy song, was probably very well-known since it played on a station with other hits. It kind of had similar vibes to Lifehouse but it wasn’t them.
The lyrics were about a relationship I think, and it mentioned doing something with the partner “tonight”.
Edit: Tonight wasn’t the main focus of the song, it was the relationship

Album cover with a girl smiling and looking up? I think she had black hair or something. From the 90s
Edited by sassyelliott2403openCertain soundtrack from Bunny Drop Music
What is the name of the music that plays in Bunny Drop to Daikichi lighting incense at his grandfather's shrine (episode 1) and searching his grandfather's house for written will or other clues about Rin (episode 3)?
These are the only scenes this tranquil yet mysterious score plays to and I can't find said track anywhere.
resolved Country song Music
Country song from the 2000s-2010s. Has the lyrics "with a woo-hoo" or something similar? I think it features car horns in place of some lyrics.
