I'm desperately trying to remember the name of a particular jazz number that I can remember the tune from but can't really recall much else. Can anyone help me? Brief recording of what I can remember here: http://vocaroo.com/i/s1SjVVz3IPv0

Music video I saw on TV some time between 2006 - 2010. The singer was a woman with brown hair and the song depicted her as crazy, I think in the video she had a man duct taped to a chair. I live in Britain but I'm not sure what the channel was. It was one of those that constantly plays pop music videos.

I remember seeing a music video a few years back (mid-2000s). Quite difficult to describe. From what I remember, the band play the song with all the members in different rooms, as wires snake around them. Towards the end, the wires pull the band members together, whilst one of the wires manages to get inside the lead singer (you can see it travelling against the skin of his neck) and sew his mouth shut. It ends with the camera zooming out from this mass of wires, people and furniture. It was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen, but I don't know what the song was, when I saw it, or who it was by.

Something I know from a few years ago, and some You Tube catches.
I know someone made a few, fairly extended remixes of some songs. This turned epic rocking into epic rocking soundscapes, some reaching around 30-40 minutes. I'm pretty sure they were all fanmade, but...
Some of the songs I remember were Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, Frankie's Welcome To The Pleasuredome, and a Cult song, but I don't remember which one. Mostly 60's-80's rock and new wave.
Thanks for the help, if anyone knows what I'm talking about. :)

I heard a song on the radio at the grocery store today. Only caught the end of it, but I want to know what it is. I could make out what I believe was the chorus, "You'll be there, you'll be the one to [something]." The something had a similar vowel sound to "break me down," but wasn't that exactly. It was sung by a male, who to me sounded similar to Rob Thomas.

There's this song I heard recently that I SWEAR is from a video game that I may have played, but I can't remember what it's from. It may not be from a video game. Anyway, here's the beginning of the song recreated in text. The song is in 4/4 time, the notes displayed here are in 16ths, and the key of the song is in C Major. If you have a musical instrument or something, then try to play along. Refer to the legend below for details:
120bpm
|4/4| - - - - - - - - - - E F | G - - G - - A - G _ _ _ - - G A | A#- - A#- - C - A _ _ G _ _ F _ |
| G _ _ _ _ _ E _ C _ _ _ _ _ _ _ |
Legend: - = No note to be played, _ = Sustained note, # = Sharped note, | = Measure divider
Just so you know where to play this song on an instrument, the first C in the song is played one octave above Middle C, and the last note is Middle C.

An animated music video I saw in the early 2000's that featured a naked, yellow skinned man with sunglasses reclining into a hot tub. It wasn't explicit as his genitals were blurred. I think the music itself was indie, and I keep (incorrectly) associating the video with Half Light by Athlete, so it probably sounds similar. The video was drawn in a Gorillaz like style, but the colours were much more muted.

A animated heavy metal or rock music video that featured a skeleton like zombie's eyeballs rolling back into his head. The animation was similar to Pearl Jam's Do The Evolution, but slightly rougher. I saw it in the early to mid 2000's, but it had a sort of 1990's aesthetic. I checked the page for Animated Music Video, but I couldn't find it. Any help appreciated.

A 2010s techno song where I keep on hearing the chorus as "Fletcher Fluttershy Fletcher Fluttershy..." Please help? It's getting on my nerves!

I know the description is kinda sketchy (memory is fuzzy, I forgot how long it's been) but I've been trying to find this music video for a while now. I don't remember the song (otherwise I wouldn't be here), but I'm 99% sure it was in the Electro-Swing genre. It was animated and colorful, and (I'm pretty sure) the video itself was based on a family who recently got a new stereo/speaker system (it was purple I think, if that helps at all) that turned into a robot?? I think?? like I said that's really all I can remember, sorry it's so vague Oh, and the art style was 50's-esque like this, I believe. Any help would be great!

A catchy song I heard in the past week. I guess the style would probably fall under "indie pop," possibly overlapping with hip-hop or soul. The only thing I remember are fragments of the chorus.
The chorus has a medium-paced, driving rhythm. The first two beats of it are really emphasized and low-pitched, and then the rest of the line goes up in pitch with each syllable. "DUN!DUN!-duh-nuh-nuh-nuhhh..." I'm remembering this as being sung by children's voices.
I can't remember what comes right after that, but there's a bit in the chorus that is two lines with fairly quick singing, and I think one of them ends with "take you there." These two lines start at quite a high pitch but end up a bit lower. They might be sung by an African-American(?) female, or it could be a kid with a good singing voice.
Sorry for this terrible explanation. Thanks in advance for any leads!

This is driving me crazy! There's this song I keep hearing in Youtube videos, but I don't know what it's called. I always ask the uploader of the video what the name of the song is, but no one ever responds!
To describe the song, it's a creepy song that starts out with just piano, and then an electric sound (it sounds a bit like a theremin) comes in. In the videos where I've heard it, it's always used when something creepy or supernatural is happening.
To provide an example of a video where I heard it, watch this Supermarioglitchy4 video starting at the 7:29 mark, (which is where the link starts the video at). If you are unfamiliar with his videos, just a little warning: They tend to be very NSFW.
Does anyone know the name of this song?

Hey! I'm looking for a song that must have some connection to Assassin's Creed. I found several that were about AC 2-4, but I'm sure that this one was created shortly after the release of the very first Assassin's Creed,so.. around 2007-8. It sounded a bit Linkin Park-ish, with rap and rock aspects. I'm pretty sure the words 'Assassin's Creed' were also used at some point in the song. Please help, I can't find this anywhere...

Techno song from 2005 or so. Singer was male and the refrain was something like "I'm feeling the pressure" I remember the song sounded kind of like "Behind The Wheel" by Depeche Mode. For some reason I think the band name started with a P or Q but I could be remembering wrong.

This song I first heard in 2002 but could be older. Male singer. not sure what genre I'd call it but the song had the words "Indian Summer" repeated a lot and one line was something about sitting under the weeping willow tree. It is NOT the songs called Indian Summer by The Doors, Stereophonic, or Brooks and Dunn

Another song for today. The lyrics aren't in English and sound like they're in French. The beat sounds like a house song but it's otherwise a regular rock-ish song. There's strings in the song and the vocals sound kind of like the lead singer for Big Country.
