Okay, so, it was a piece of music from the Pokémon anime's first season. It was more or less a rearrangement of the theme from the Pokemon Gyms from the video games... as a searingly awesome rock song that begins with an 80s-ish synth intro! It would usually be in the background whenever something particularly heroic, climactic, or just plain awesome was happening. Does anyone know the name of this tune?

More like "music videos", I guess: You see, there's this eighties dance night I go to sometimes, where they have music videos projected on a screen behind the dance floor, but the videos are to completely different songs from what the DJ is playing. This one particularly stood out as being a Surreal Music Video - I mostly remember that it involved people wearing orange shirts with orange and white striped cones on their heads, who were riding on black gondolas. The videos usually are from the same time period the actual DJ set is, the eighties up to the early nineties, but it could even be something later than that; For instance, I've seen them throw in Fatboy Slim's "Weapon Of Choice" video once, presumably because Christopher Walken dancing around a hotel room and defying gravity is just that cool.

I've recorded what little I remember of it in this Vocaroo link
. I apologize that my singing's not the best, but this was the only way I could think to convey the song without typing, "It sounds like 'dododoDODOdo dododoDODOdo.'"
I should note that it's a modern R&B song sung by a female singer.

Does anyone know a song with these lyrics (I can't find them anywhere but two sites with people asking the same question.):
"Beyond the walls of my heart is the dream that you dreamed for me And only you hold the key to the door of my destiny. If I can trust you now, I know you will show me how Far beyond the world"
I heard it in the background in two shops in Dublin. That's all I have.

Okay this is a bit different, but I'm looking for a genre of music here and I didn't know where else to ask.

This is the only example I can find without knowing the name, I'm thinking of the genre with the whole doobeedoobeedoo thing. I want to hear more songs like it. I think it's scat, but I don't know. I'm at an embarrassing loss here. And I don't mean comedy. Hope you can help.

This is a clip from a trailer for "Robo Roach", dubbed into Russian. What metal song is in the background? [http://2x2tv.ru/movie/fa654eb186221d6f93ba81d57c73aafc

I'm looking for a song from an ad.
It was a Target
ad, probably aired somewhere between 2005-07.
The ad itself was really surreal and had nice subdued music. The singer was female, and I think the only line I can remember from the song was "When you reach your destination".
Although like I said it was surreal, so the words weren't all that clear over the music (even though the music was sedate and soft).
I'm almost positive it was Target, although I think the ad involved a car. If not Target, then some ad that aired on Australian TV, Win or Seven most likely.
I did try searching for the lyrics, but didn't turn up anything. I may have the lyrics slightly wrong, or it might have been created for the ad. There are no prominent instruments, and certainly not a strong beat.

There's this song with a music video about this curly haired lead singer guy running around a music video set until this girl handcuffs him to a prop which he accidentally knocks down to reveal the music video cast in their underwear. Him and the girl are then handcuffed together and they start dancing on the music video set after they argue, the cast still in their underwear then come out and start dancing too.
For the life of me I can't remember the name of the song or the band.

Okay tropers, I know this is a long shot, but I'm desperate. I only heard part of this song, and it's not the kind of music I usually listen to, but I fell in love with it and now I have no idea how to find it. The only lyrics I heard were "Show me the way," repeating about five times. It was kind of Jim Bianco-like, which is the best I have for comparison. It's not much to go on, and I don't really expect any results, but I'd love you forever if you somehow found this for me.

(Edited to add more details)
It's bugging me that I don't know the name of this piece, since I feel like I've heard it a million times in a thousand different things. I can't remember any particular show/movie/commercial I've heard it in, but it's used to evoke the feeling of the Wild West. I'm guessing it's either by Aaron Copland or from an old western movie.
It's a soaring orchestral theme, with an "epic film music" feel to it. Probably not by John Williams, but similar to what you'd expect from him. Prominent strings. Allegrissimo.
The part I remember starts with a loud four-note motif broken into two parts by a pause in the middle. If I had to guess, I'd say the notes are F# E A E. I could be way off. That's followed by a descending series of quick notes on strings. I think the main motif is also on strings, but I'm not sure.

I've been holding out on doing this one for a long time because it seems so hard and so vague. Around 2002 or 2003, maybe 2001 I would here this country song on the radio a lot that I haven't heard in 8 to 10 years, it was very soft and mellow, it might have been a love song of some kind, it was sung by a man, all I remember is it mentioned something about your heart, and it also mentioned some other organ, possibly brain or spleen. Does anyone know what this might have been?

What I-Doser track is the clip in this video
of?(Don't worry, the entire video is 37 seconds and you don't see nearly enough of the sound to harm you if it's dangerous.)

I know I'm familiar with the song in this video
but I just can't place it with that one little clip.

What is the music in the end of this video? Can't remember where it's from
