Okay, so while I was watching T.V. a few years ago (2003-ish), there was a music video playing, where there was a kid who hated his mom, and did bad things like steal some of her money and write a card to her that said "I hate you" in every page. I remember the mom read the I Hate You card and halfway through, she became frustrated and started ripping it apart. I think the mom had an unusual hair color as well... green, I think. And so, eventually on Mother's Day, the kid writes another card apologizing for everything he did, promising to be a better son, but when the mother reads it, she just leaves. Then it cuts to present time with the singer digging a hole, singing something along the lines of "I'm sorry, ma". It's been at the back of my head for a while now.. Anyone know it?

It was a music video. I'd say it was in the Early 2000's. I remember it had one of those electronic dog toys (Techno, I think they were called). That's all I can remember....besides the fact it scared the crap out of little me. xD
EDIT: They actually spell it Tekno...so that might help.

I'm trying to remember the artist of a mega obscure song. I can remember the song was simply called "Doll", and I can remember the lyrics "Take her to a movie". I just can't for the life of me remember the artist of the song.
The song was used in a short home-made movie involving ninjas I just happened to stumble upon on TV one night (possibly ITV or Channel 4)

I'm trying to remember a song from the UK, mid-90s. I'm thinking of an upbeat tune, where the main melody consisted of possibly a string instrument, which repeated itself. I'm not a music expert, but I'll try to represent it numerically:
6 5 3 4— 4— 4— 4— 4 3 4 5 4
There were also vocals in this song. From memory, they kinda sounded like Ali Campbell. If it helps, I'm sure they used it as background music on CBBC at around the time the song was released.

A peppy, upbeat song from the 90's or early 2000's. It might've been in a movie soundtrack but I can't be sure. Female singer with a slightly high pitched voice. I think it was pretty popular and it still goes on the radio today (at least here it does). I cannot remember the lyrics but I think there was a "(what) if I" or something in the chorus. I'm sorry I cannot remember more.

There's a bird (probably a New World sparrow or warbler), whose breeding range includes the midwestern US, that sings "tweetweet tweetwee tweetweet tweedeet" with the same melody snippet as a phrase from the Mustafar music; the penultimate note is a minor third above the previous six, and the last is a minor second below that.

I'm looking for a country song, "classic country" era. The lyrics had something to do with a young man in love/lust with an older woman, and there might have been something about storms (literal or metaphorical, I can't recall), possibly in the chorus. I think it was in a minor key. It might be by the Oak Ridge Boys or the Statler Brothers, but I can't say for sure.

I remember a song, what I think may be a famous rock/pop song that has an upbeat tempo and singers that sound happy, and its sounds sort of newish, probably not from before the eighties. I can only remeber the chorus, but it was very distinct, and it went like "tu-ra-loo-ra-too-ra-loo-rightnow" or something like that. Searching those lyrics only get me an Irish lullaby and something from (Pakistan?), which are not what I was looking for.

A song I saw on MTV around January/February 2002 (or was it 2003?) with an old man playing guitar, a nostalgic song which I very vaguely remember was about old-time friends he lost or perhaps about other memories. I also vaguely remember he was sitting on a tall chair while playing the guitar.

This is kind of a tough one, because what I remember isn't a song or music video, just an odd quirk of a band's discography: While doing a Wiki Walk through All Music Guide, I found the page of a band where their bio said that originally, the band had wanted to change their name every time they put out a new album, but always give their albums the same title (you know, the opposite of what bands normally do). After doing this for their first two albums, they decided it was a stupid idea and stuck to one band name from then on. Anyone know who this band might be?
