- In 1980s Germany, on a local radio station, a man recorded a song on the radio that would one day become The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet. Over the course of its 40 year lifespan, the song has been played on countless times on the radio and has been heard by millions, but despite all of that, no one has been able to identify it.However, with new findings, the search for the song has been renewed, and it seems like its possible now more than ever that the most mysterious song on the internet

"I can't play too much of the song due to DMCA."
- FROM WHO?
@Siyual
@Siyual "FROM WHO?" From Ronnie Rocket for his song that he used for voice comparison.
@@Psalm1267So some rando waltzed in, said "yeah that sounds like a song I'd write, pay me" and they rolled with it?
@@olliegoria You can do that on CZcams. You might not win the case, but you can cause the uploader a lot of grief until they settle. I suppose you can do that in other environments, too.
They've ruled out Ronnie on the TMS subreddit, for some very good reasons that I don't know.
@@olliegoria That's what happened on Spotify. So now every time you Shazam it, it gets credited to the moron on Spotify. 😑 I hate being here bruh
What's DMCA?
The only explanation for no one coming out to claim it is that it was possibly a one-man band (which is really common) and the guy has passed many years ago, and if he had a band mate, he just does not use internet, as many people still don't do, especially older people, and thus cannot be reached to claim and explain the song.
Good call, I was thinking the same kind of situation. Who knows how many songs are forever lost to time?
@@chrisbole8339 at least we have the complete song to listen to and admire, and it being a sad post-punk song with unknown origins just adds a true aura of post-punk melancholy to it, unlike the other lost song known as Everyone Knows That, that only a few seconds exist and everything regarding it is a complete dead end.
Yes maybe
I don't agree. This song is way too complex and thought through. It's technically on professional level of complexity. It's impossible it was some amateur. It must have been some collab between bands that is yet to be discovered among those trashy german EPs that are sold by volume.
@@kubastachu9860 ?!? So a one-man band can't be complex, well thought and technical? Dude, there are so many one-man bands in metal with better songs, have more professional and well-produced songs and sound than famous big bands. Some of the best bands I've listened to back in the day were one-man bands, and some of the most beloved too. What are you talking about? lmao
the thing about the lead singers is that the vocal style is extremely common for 80s new wave bands, so just going by "this guy has a similar voice" isn't really much of a lead
Yes exactly
My thoughts too
Absolutely.
oh if you can name at least 5 bands from 1983 to 1985, with the same style and with the identical singer
@@MrLapapa5 All bands sound the same in any particular time period. That's why you can say you like let's say 60's rock or rap from the 90's because every artist sounded similar at that particular time. And on the other hand, if you tell someone to listen to anything and tell them how this sounds so similar to something else, human brain automatically starts to find similarities. It's a common phenomenon so it's not really a solid proof.
EKT has fallen, now it's time to go back to the original, most mysterious song
EKI* (EVERYONE KNOWS IT)
Well... Hopefully this one won't be literally a banger
@@gamingchickenstudios oh let's hope (I understood your comment)
@@armyshopebefore we knew the lyrics we just called it everybody knows that
Amen to that. Although I think this song has been identified long ago. The singer is George Dalambiras
Worst part is the song is an absolute banger too, so that makes the mystery even more frustrating
This is a mediocre track at best. Meh.
this song is objectively better than 'everyone knows that' and it should be found and have the attention it has
They're both so dull. Zoomers herding around a topic because others herded around it, again.

I was a musician in Vienna in the 1980's, here are a few thoughts:
- The song itself: it uses a very common chord progression that was repeated on many songs of that time, over and over again. It is what an amateur band of the time in Austria or Germany etc. would likely have used. There is a second part in the song, not really a bridge though, so this sounds like the "flagship" song of some unknown band that never made it. However, the scraped enough money together to pay for a recording studio. That was quite common at the time, and since studios were expensive, it is possible that they recorded two songs only for the front and back of a single. Or, another thing that wasn't uncommon, this could have been their only song, which was released on a sampler LP. If it is the latter, it is probably next to impossible to find it, at least without skimming through endless records and reading the fine print.
- Production quality: it sounds like it was recorded in a proper studio, as opposed to a basement or garage. As for the synth, that might have been there in the studio, for rent. The drums are definitely not top notch, just listen to the hi-hat. The mixing is also not great, which points to the band doing everything themselves (you could hire a sound technician as well... then it would probably sound better).
- Musicians: these are most likely not professionals, at least not anywhere close to high-end. Think about the elaborate guitar solos common in the 1980's, and their guitarist just strums the same notes. It's probably the best he could do. Same with the synth, a hallmark of the 1980's, there is so much more that a professional band could and would have done with this synth.
- Recording technique: one thing that is mentioned in the video is that back then, each track was recorded individually. So I think it is possible that a drummer would not recognize or remember a song after he recorded his part (happened to me too). That is not proof, of course, but something to keep in mind. Sometimes bands would break up before the record was finished.
- NDR1 "Musik für junge Leute": some episodes are up on youtube; their focus seems to have been to play underground music and/or unknown artists. The production quality of most songs was mich higher than for the "mysterious song", as well as the musical complexity.
Since the song was played on radio only once (?), it is possible that someone asked a favor from his or her cousins or friends, or through some other connections (we did that too). Then the band split up, people got real jobs, and they stopped thinking about this song. So it could just be that they haven't watched this video... :)
This is pretty much what I’ve been thinking too. Most likely some friends somewhere in Europe back in the early to mid 80s got together and made a band for a while, recorded a track or two, split up after not very long, moved on with their lives, and forgot about most of it. Any tracks they made/songs they wrote faded into obscurity, and it was just by some fluke that the internet happened to find one of their songs and make it blow up online, decades later. I’m ok with never knowing who made this song, we now have the full track and that’s good enough for me, because it’s a great song!
it was a test pressing, that never released after. Maybe farewell. Test pressing ltd.5
Post punk new wave greek
It's actually drum machine in TMMS!
@@andrewcocos ??? Band ?
The big irony here: this song would be forgotten without this mystery of who wrote and played it. Maybe someone could sell a plagiarized cover, and wait for someone to sue!
that's is if that someone is alive
how does one get DMCAd by the most mysterious unknown song on the internet?
thats what i thought
I think it's just CF being overly cautious? I saw a similar vid abt TMS a couple weeks ago that played the song in full nesr the beginning and afaik that's still up
I think he was referring to the song he was comparing it to. I've seen multiple videos playing the whole song, and they've never been claimed. Even sparking jokes about how you know it's mysterious when even CZcams doesn't give you a strike on behalf of Sony or Warner Chappell.
I thought that too. Wouldn't getting DMCA'd add to the investigation?
what are you talking about
song writer / composer got DMCA'd by their own song because youtube system is fucked up
that Ronnie dude might be a bit of an asshole but that doesn't mean he can't be our guy. Same thing happened to Feels Like a Wish (former "Fond My Mind"). The composer was found but refused to cooperate, and we could only REALLY find the song cus some other dude who worked with him in the 80s had a copy of it. If we were relying on Edde (the composer) wanting to help, that song would have never been solved.
I'm not familiar with the story but that's very strange that he wouldn't want to cooperate.. did he have something against the artist? Otherwise that makes no sense to me.
I’m not familiar with that particular lost song either but the Ronnie Rocket guy sounds less like an asshole and more… unstable imo. I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re right though.
@@BlackFlagHeathen The 80s were…. Rough on some people. 😅
TMS discord would just abandon research cuz of "it's mean to do what you're said not to do" bs
stg edde eggman was on coke or somthn when we were seein about him.
Radio stations have been archiving their music since they began. They know its most likely at NDR. Surely someone currently working there would be curious enough to start digging around those dates. It's there somewhere.
10,000 plus records and it even then MIGHT not have been on vinyl format
I wouldn’t be surprised if they taped over it, it seems like a relatively small and unknown song so there would be no reason to keep the master tape for a small artist
No, but maybe scipts of the broadcast, paperwork with notes or other stuff.
Archives get trashed all the time. The BBC tapes over master episodes of Doctor Who
@@GladeSwope looks like it was both "Between approximately 1967 and 1978, large quantities of videotape and film stored in the BBC's Engineering department and film libraries were wiped or destroyed to make way for newer programmes.[1] This happened for several reasons, primarily the belief that there was no practical value to its retention."
I rented a DX7 for a weekend in 1984 to record some songs with some friends. And we weren't any known band. In that time period it was pretty easy to get access to a DX7 without having to have been a well known band.
I think the price of the DX-7 is over emphasized. Every musician knows someone who spends all of their money on better gear.
More importantly, the keyboard parts are not especially complicated nor are they essential to the song. It's very possible the DX-7 was something owned by the studio where they cut the song.
And where were you living in 1984?
@@kolejnytrup Uhh, probably in a house 💀 cornball ass "gotcha!"
Seeing Whang in other people’s videos is such a cool full circle moment for me.
"I can't play much of the song due to DMCA" Claimed by who? This song has to be copyright-free, right?
That's the thing I don't get. If a copyright claim gets filed, it includes the copyright owner and the song title. So either someone's trolling the copyright (which can be disputed and is illegal to do, not that there's even any punishment for it) or...this isn't a mystery.
Ronnie's song where he was comparing the voices.
He said that likely not for the lost song but for the song he was using as a comparison.
Copyright trolls do be trolling.
After r/TheMysteriousSong search members kept contacting Billy Knight he realised the song was actually popular, so he registered the (english) song to Statues in Motion. Same thing happened with Ronnie Rocket, he registered the German version of it.
Awesome video and very up to date. Considering how old this song is, we might be running out of time, but I hope we get to know the answer. Thanks for the shout-out!
Tbf I was a heavy drug user when I was musician and I forgot a lot of things I did when I was a drug addict that decades later remembered when people told me about it
A lot of 70s kids were born that way (mostly alcohol one night stands)
@@dertythegrower definitely lol
@@dertythegrowerAh yes the degen generation . Lovely..
Makes sense. I mean, just look at David Bowie. Because all the stuff he was doing
he didn't even remember having recorded Station to Station. Just, memory-holed out
As a native Greek speaker i believe that the song's lyrics sounds like "english with greek accent to me" just like their album SIM. Very normal for some boys back in 83 to not have perfect english accent. The story about George Dalabiras moving to Germany bringing the tms song there sounds posible, but onli him, Dalabiras , can confirm or deny it. If he is alive. From your communication with Bily, did he told you if they are still on touch? If he knows where he lives?
Dates make sense too. And i say that as a fellow greek.
Greek rock music like this started to be made in Greece at the time. I think they resemble Trypes a bit.
I believe Billy. I think the guys that made this simply don't give a damn anymore.
It is not SIM.
As a German I hear an accent closer to Germany so idk what to think
That Ronnie fellow who claims to have co-written and co-performed the song was totally coked up while sending those emails. No normal person types like that, even if they're angry or otherwise worked up over something. He very well might have something to do with the song, but his head is screwed up beyond all belief from all the drugs he's presumably taken over the course of his life.
As in mcgovney?
The radio channel nrd where it come from was contacted, and a mystery show from germany went and talked about it, seemingly being THE ONLY song they don't remember playing
that's it, I believe this came from a parallel universe. There's too many things changing in our timeline, even the fucking place we are in in the milky way galaxy, and people wanna say "nah everyone is just having the same exact false memory, they misremembered" I would like you to remember the false memory theory was created by a bunch of abusers trying to silence their victims by saying all their trauma is just a false memory and that they shouldn't be mentally ill whatsoever.
i got this upload confused with LEMMINO , but still tho thats like the best compliment ever
how
@@RYRY1002 Lemmino is the goat of youtube documentaries
@@NielsRenkema Lemmino is freakin fantastic! I have seen most of his vids multiple times.

If you got a DMCA strike - wouldn't that tell you who *filled* the claim, and therefore who owns the rights to the song? I mean you can't get a DMCA strike from no one.
@ChadWSmith
I uploaded it to my channel and got a copyright claim, but it doesn't give you information on who owns the copyright. You could go ahead and try it yourself and see what happens.
A claim is not the same as a strike. In a claim, the owner allows you to use the song. I kept the video private but the AI found out there was a claim on it.
In an ideal world, sure, Encyclopedia Brown. However, copyright trolls are a thing, especially since CZcams doesn't have the most robust DMCA system.
@@Psalm1267 Maybe it's an anonymous copyright troll making false claims without providing any information, because based of what I know so far, YT's automated copyright ID system can't just simply generate any copyright claims out of thin air because the artist or the label needs to submit all their copyright files in order to be verified by YT, and it can be easily exploited by any trolls pretending to be the original artist.
Remember that invisible unicode letters actually exist and it's commonly used to make "blank" video title or "channels with no name". I'm pretty sure the troll uses that kind of invisible letter to "blank out" the artist name
When the internet dies, this song will be in the credits.
😂😂😂👏
I've seen this same comment copy and pasted on every video on this song.
I thought it will be, “You are my sunshine ☀️, my only sunshine ☺️”.
Nice copy/paste bro
Hear that?? Me neither.
Everytime I listen to this song, I get such an eerie feeling. It actually creeps me out a bit. Don't understand why though.
Same for me lol
Me too, this song is kinda creepy to me.
That was Joy Division singing in German.
I read a comment under one of the videos about this song which really fits. It went something like:
"If the Internet ever ends (probably along with the whole world), this song will be the ending credits song to The Internet. ". The mood of the song really fits lol.
Everyone Knows That/Ulterior Motives is another famous lost song, but we only have a tiny snippet of that one. these situations can be pretty discouraging :/
edit: well... maybe this song is from an 80s porno too lol
They found it in a 80s porno, don’t give up
It was solved today ! Albeit, it to a rather funny and unexpected conclusion lol
@@anxyietoono way
FOUND AND LYRICS CONFIRMED
well
Chill Fuel is back baybay!
My brother doesn't want this mystery to even be solved.
Its a symptom of the Internet that we think all answers should be available.
I don’t know if it’s a symptom of the internet specifically. Lots of people enjoy not only reading mystery novels, but also enjoy working to solve open mysteries. The internet is just a tool to help facilitate that.
I think the biggest problem is that no one from the German CZcams or generally social media scene is talking about this. I’ve only ever heard about it from English creators.
If anyone is gonna find this song it’s trough someone’s parents who knows the local band.
I’m convinced it could be found if some German influencers brought some traction into the topic within Germany.
The song itself is a banger. The guitar, synth, vocals and bass parts are fine could be modernised with better drumming and a more varied bridge. If an EP with different versions EDM, metal etc was made I'd buy it.
It’s on iTunes. It sounds great, I added it to my KTSW playlist, but iTunes gave credit to Alvin Dean and Statues in Motion, but that’s not who created it.
What if Alvin Dean sang it alone or he just has a similar singing style?
I stepped away from the research a few months ago, then got curious as to where it's at. Thanks for the updates!
I like the way you talk so calmly, and I did not know about the 2 specific dates yet! I just finished my 25 year search for my personal music mystery (which turned out to be much more "trivial"/well-known than I thought and was solved by searching a little differently than I used to...), so I am "hungry" for new interesting facts about TMMS!
what was it 🙏
I called it the Cantering Notes but it is really Ayacucho by James Last/originally by Los Chaskis. 25000 clicks on CZcams and no one could connect the dots until now... So I wish us all good luck connecting the dots right for TMMS
99% of mystery songs on the Internet are just Sandstorm by Darude.
How is a song without an owner DMCA?
@ryanosborne7534
@ryanosborne7534
I think he's more concerned about Ronnie filing a DMCA.
Funny thing, I did and posted a cover on CZcams (see my channel) and when I posted it, it said copyright material was detected, but that the owner allows free use. Seems strange.
@@TheDeadEndFriendsSound I see that on a lot of my videos. It's relevant if you monetize, because if it's copyright claimed, you are not allowed to allow embedding, and they get the ad revenue from it.
If you don't monetize, you still aren't allowed to allow embedding. but otherwise it's no big deal.
In any case, you have to keep an eye out all the time for take-down requests.
Honestly this song slaps, it’s a bummer that no one can pin down the artist. It’d be dope to get a remaster of it
How can you be DMCA'd if nobody can prove the actual artist or owner?
@MR0KITTY I think he's more worried about Ronnie's song.
Funny thing, I did and posted a cover on CZcams (see my channel) and when I posted it, it said copyright material was detected, but that the owner allows free use. Seems strange.
@@TheDeadEndFriendsSound There's talk of whoever is copyright claiming it is doing it is a fraud.
After ultery motives was found i have hope this song will also be found
I thought this would be etk again lmaao.
I know man, The Booths did such an amazing job on this absolute ballad. The legendary voice still has yet to be named.
It's good that they found EKT. It's awkward indeed that they found it in a porno but at least it was found. There are many lost media and it's very sad to say the least. There are still a few songs that the internet is searching for including this one.
@@blackkitty148 At its finding, EKT was the single most popular lostwave of all time. Reaching over 5+ million cumulative views daily on TikTok, gaining over 40K members on the subreddit in 3 months. With that kind of attention, it was going to be found eventually. If we want TMS found, we need to do the same.
Everyone that knows
makes me think about all the other songs lost and forgotten through time
It was claimed in an older video that someone who has access to the archives of NDR was contacted, but didn't have the time to skim through that mass of audio to find it. Sadly I can't find the video where I have heard that claim. Does anybody know what I am talking about?
Yes, I saw the same video but can't recall the channel😢
So really what's going to be needed is either they need to have the time to go through it themselves which is unlikely or someone with trustworthy credentials being able to set aside time and get permission to go through it themselves.
That’s not true. NDR has no audio archives of their 1984 shows. What they do have, and provided to the r/TheMysteriousSong mods on Reddit was the playlists. These are paper files containing all tracks played on a particular show.
I missed the videos from this channel.
Hope you upload more often, it is really good content.
I've seen all the videos.
I've been interested in this story but not actively following it, so I appreciate this video a lot 🥰
The end of the video makes it sound like this song is ancient. If it was recorded in 84 and the band members averaged 20 years old (a fair presumption) they're only just now turning 60. They're not in the grave just yet.
@@MRed0135I could be wrong, but a lot of youtube commenters post nonsense and stereotypes, you know.
(It's easy to write a stereotype as if it's fact.)
@@Darxide23 I mean the Brandl guy who may be involved in it died over 30 years ago and also just because it is a stereotype doesn't mean that there isn't some basis in fact. Also even if they are alive that does not mean that they even are on social media or can be contacted.
There are no links in the description
Glad to have you back bro
Great video as always!
It doesn't help that this sounds like most indie rock from the 80s and 90s
i thought i was suffering a case of Mandela Effect as i swore i saw a video about this before...
oh yeah. the channel All Things Lost covered THIS EXACT SAME STORY less than a month ago!
GOOD FAKE SONG
Lots of folks have covered it :)
Right I was like how have I heard all this story and even the song before? 😂
Still good enough to hear again
Seriously, one channel blows up with another repeat retold Reddit thread then all the clout chasers copy it.
@@ivan4087fake? sure bud.
I thought this channel was dead.. Well this is a nice treat..
Listening to the amateur drumming on the song, it makes me think it was someone's high school band or something and was unlikely to be an established band that was out there touring or whatever. I'm guessing someone who worked on the radio station was acquainted with someone from that band, got asked to play it, and just did it once as a favor. They probably didn't want to list it in the logs since technically they shouldn't have been playing it. They may not have even announced the song after it played.
This might be LEMMINO
Do you have a link to what radio stations broadcasted the song for the search? I can only find the paul baskerville broadcast on CZcams
I wonder if a language expert has been engaged to determine the lead singers accent. I know, probably German, but maybe the region could be narrowed down.
The voice kinda sounds like the lead singer from Alphaville which is a German band that was extremely active in the time frame of the broadcast. Maybe it was theirs and they just didn't really go anywhere further with the song, abandoned it or something.
Anyone try to see if it was from them?
@TheShattenjager "Anyone try to see if it was from them?" The best way to find out is to go the subreddit r/The MysteriousSong and search first, and if you don't find anything, post your question. They don't want anyone to just go and bother someone without asking first, because they might have been inundated with questions already.
I've been convinced on alvin dean since it was brought up but i dont find the voices that much similar anymore, who knows maybe someone will randomly solve this one too one day.
Ronnies email, if it really his email, is trying really hard to be a scam email lol
His attitude is perfactly in line with being an austrian artist from Vienna, tho.
It looks a lot like the hypergraphia type of writing that you see in people with schizophrenia. Not saying he's schizophrenic, but it wouldn't surprise me if he was.
A buddy of mine in a club band had a Yamaha DX7 in 1984
This whole idea of a DX7 being premium and not used by bands is completely ridiculous. It was incredibly common in 1984. The middle school where I volunteer taught music had a dX7 sitting around. No one really liked it. It became legendary much later when 80's synth trash became kitsch. People liked moogs and such back then - like Rush
Thank you Chill Fuel. Your work was outstanding on this one!
Around 2007 I changed the name of my MySpace-music to "Red Jumpsuit Aparatus" (because they were #1 on MySpace at the time). I got 10s of thousands of plays downloads in a couple days, and then the account was completely erased. I hope those songs are a mystery for someone someday.
do you have recordings of the songs?
I have reason to believe that The Mysterious Song was made by a well-known band that people are overlooking, and that when it IS found, it will be in the most unexpected place and unexpected way. Many of the largest lost media searches ended up being found in rather unconventional ways, like fellow lostwave song "Ulterior Motives" (aka. "Everyone Knows That") being found in an adult film of all places, or the original Backrooms photo being found on the archive of a website for a random thrift store in Wisconsin.
There's a big reason I don't believe in either the Statues in Motion or Ronnie Rocket leads. Ronnie comes off like a blatant con artist who's just using the search for attention, and the same goes for Billy Knight because I doubt a major radio station would play an unreleased song from an obscure one-album band most people have never heard of, especially since most of the songs from the NDR playlists are from well-known bands, while Statues in Motion is so obscure they're not even on Spotify or Last FM while countless "One-hit-wonder" artists from the same era are.
Going by all the playlists and mix tapes, it just feels odd for an unknown or lesser-kown artist to be on the same playlist with largely several well-known artists. That's the part that gets me most, TMS just feels like an outlier, it feels very out-of-place. That's why I'm convinced that a more well-known artist made it, and that it most likely originates from some sort of B-sides album. When the song IS eventually found, I imagine it will be in the last place anyone would look.
21:56 lol that is when my dad turned 1 year older
i made many demo records for years and i am sure that this song was a demo of some young musicians but did not make any sense at that time.
Elvin didn't even need to move to Germany if a producer found a cut track and decided to sell it to a foreign market without knowing who or what it belonged to.
One little songs that has made quite a journey

I'm pleased we have a backstory behind the most mysterious song in the world it really fleshes things out.
Wow you went deep dude, this was interesting. Keep it up
This has bound to have been examined, but the first thing that I thought of was voice print comparison with known singers. Is it possible or is the source recordings fidelity too insufficient?
this song is literally my goth post punk dream it sucks that no one knows it, would add to my playlist in a heartbeat
You can though, it’s on Apple Music, it’s just called The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet by The Most Mysterious Band.

22:22 The NDR has the one of the biggest music libraries in Europe. Then there is also the DRA for the entire ARD. Sometimes programmes are shared between the member stations. The Popnacht for example shares the SWR programme with HR3, NDR2, MDR Jump, RBB, SR1 and WDR1. So sometimes it might not be the NDR directly, but the BR sends via the Stern to other stations. I wrote it under another video already that suggestion.
I am sorry that this dude replied so threatening. I can speak German, maybe I can help with the radio station.
I think if we specify with all the details we have, I think NDR can find a match

Alright, so I sended an email to the NDR and asked for information if they have archives of the dates you gave. And if they do, if there is a possibility to check for the song.

There are thousands lost songs out there. There will just always be art that can't be tracked back to its original creator. There is a Undercover Runway Fashion Show video on CZcams and the last song that plays in that video is so beautiful, and everyone in the comments is wondering who this song made. It's probably just a song made by an artist who could be compared to an artists who nowadays would have 10 listeners on Spotify. And that's sad. But also, that's just life, I guess.
What if this song was programmed to play when Earth is destroyed but it got leaked
Dude, you didn't talk to me or camspiracy. Anyway: Played October 28th, 1984 by NDR2 Substitute DJ Wolfgang Hahn. The song was a new rendition of the Statues in Motion demo "Checking in/ Checking out," but re -recorded with Alvin Dean on vocals, Yannis Beltakis on the lead Guitar, and two members of Forward Music Quintet (FMQ) with the Drums played by "Von Claus" -(Alvin's Friend) and Natasha Syregella (Streuberg) who recreated Billy Knight's synth work using a DX 7; just as she did on a cover of a Parthenogenesis song from her first FMQ album. Some how, someway Alvin (or Yannis Beltakis) got it to Wolfgang Hahn for him to sneakily play it during Octoberfest.
Is this from reddit
Interesting, where did you get it from ? Tried searching Streuberg on the subreddit only to find one post that really didn't point to anywhere
@@anxyietoo Yeah, I’m more than skeptical of their claim without any evidence whatsoever, especially since we already know several people who created narratives around this song.
Where are his playlists or the website. so curious what they palayed in 1984 germany
People argued on the whole radio station but it doesn't seem to be entirely clear if it was.
I am trying to find a song from an old fifa game. At first I thought it was from fifa 99 but after listening tot all the fifa songs from fifa 96 to 2005 I couldn't find it. At least i believe it's from fifa. Maybe a different football/soccer game. I remember a game menu, and in there, the song goes as follows: a man singing loudly, maybe multiple men: lyrics are: when we go we go oh oh oh. Then a high trumpet that goes like: tiiht tiiiht tiiht. I am not sure if it's "when we go or we roll, you row" or whatever. But this is all I can remember. It's definitely 2005 or older!!! Whoever finds it is a LEGEND forever.
try checking other football games. tried checking pes' old osts?
@abandonedaccount.6834 I checked so many soccer games but sadly still not found. Even fifa street. It could be that while my friends were playing fifa on ps1 someone had the radio on and that song played or something. Thanks for the tip anyways.
It definitely sounds demo-y and has a new wave style. but the problem is most bands of the early-mid 80s pop charts were new wave bands.
I like how the guy posted in the *Joy Division* subreddit. 😀
The singer Alvin Dean sounds pretty similar from the examples
Best video ive ever seen in my life
I just wish we had a definite version of lyrics. But then again, that does lend itself more to the mystery.
Every time I listen to the song, I can't quite make my mind up on what the lyrics are.
Is it "There's no sent communication?" or maybe "sense for new divisons?" or something else?
Is it "summer blues" or "sum of 2?"
I do think the one part is saying "Like the wind, you're going somewhere, let a smile be your companion" but the way the singer sings "somewhere" sounds like "sumwur" so I can see why people thought it said "suffer".
But the rest I can't quite parse, and I would like the original artists to be found, if only so we knew the lyrics, for sure.
But still, I do love the mystery!

Thank God he remembered his favourite hobby 🤲🏼
wait you said the song would get you DMCA'd on yt if you played more of it, but who would it be claimed by, if no-one knows who made it?
Trolls claim it
Welcome back, did you get hacked and yoi got your channel back?
8:55 I was fully convinced he was gonna say Ronnie Radke 😂
Edit: He seems to be even more insane than Radke
