My wife always asks me what songs are, so I need to know. It's a song, and they play it on the radio all the time. She thinks it's a rock song, and it has some words in it that sound cool. Does anyone know what this song is? :confused:

I'm basically going through all the radio stations, clicking every song, going "is this it?" and she just keeps saying no. This is really frustrating me, because I have no idea what to go off of. :mad:

I am, the problem is, she says it's an "older song" and none of the stations so far have had the right one.

Actually, I was looking for that band you were talking about. Couldn't find them, and I don't think they did the song because their drummer died in that year the other guy who was famous had a kid.

And to the others, no she can't be any more vague, sorry.

No it's not Nickelback. We don't even own all their Cd's anyway...:cool: I like... swear.

We have a lot of stuff, and when we throw parties, Nickelback is a good choice. Normal listening? no... no.

Well, new input, the song has these two words that are repeated a lot, and the song is definitely sung by a male.

Q- What kind of car do you drive?
A- A red one.

So, she doesn't realize that you would need more info to know what the song is? Yikes!

Next time she hears is, she should call you and hold her phone up to a speaker so you can hear it. Preferably when you're really busy. Then, she can keep talking all the way through it so you can't hear what you need in order to identify the song.

But is it played on the radio a lot?

This is why it's in the steam vent. She does this all the time, and it's driving her nuts cause she doesn't know what it is. In turn, it's driving me nuts. I've had more vague to go off of, I would never make you guys try to figure out my favorite "I like this movie, we should buy it"
"ok, which movie"
"I don't remember what it was called"
"ok, then what was it about?"
"I don't really remember"
"Do you remember who was in the movie?"
"Well, sorta, like, I'd know it was them if I saw them again"
...................
.......
"Ok, lets look, I guess..."


I used to bug my brother with stuff like that, but I'd always have more information to go off of. For the longest time, all I knew was it was a song that goes "tell me when ta-tell me when-ta - dah-dah-duh-dah-dah-dah!"
I knew it was off of a Mazda commercial or something, so that's where I started, car commercials, and couldn't find it. Then I told my brother, and he said he was sure he heard it on a MAdden game, so he went online,. listened to all the songs off the soundtrack, and came back to me with "The Moonie Suzuki"
He held the phone up to the speakers and said "is this it?" sure enough, it was, and I was close:
The song is called "Alive and Amplified" and it goes "Turn me onto, turn me onto, turn me onto, I AM ALIVE AND AMPLIFIED!"

at least I had something to go off of, but don't worry, with all your guys' help, I conclude that we will in fact, not only find this song, but we will do it with honor, and dignity, and we will pave the way for all husbands dealing with vague wive's descriptions and one day, we'll be able to go off of at least some kind of coherent information.

Not only am I dead serious, but it is funny huh? I have to deal with this all the time.
'Moon Over Naples'?

'Spanish Eyes'?

Same song, different lyrics.

Maybe it's Perry Como. He's very popular with the young people, I hear.:D

Buy her an iPhone, and download the app Shazam. Problem solved. Any time she wants to know the name of a song, this app will tell her what it is.

Problem is, she doesn't like the song she hears when she first hears it, it takes a while, she has to forget everything about it first, then tell me to find it.

I thought about it, but she's really nice. She just bought me my new surround speakers and a new flat panel TV for my birthday, and all I had mentioned was that I wanted the matching surrounds, she found them all on her own. I didn't even tell her what they were. So, unfortunately, she is a keeper, and I must deal with these things.
