diamonbackandbeastlover Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Is it a park song or a Fun TV song? 2 Quote
electricsun Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 What about Lush Life from Zara Larrson? Similar to Sia/Rhianna beats... 2 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 What kind of tempo are we talking here? (fast, slow, moderate, etc) Moderate. Starts off slow. I don't know. About to go punch a wall... 3 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 EDIT - like the remix of "Sky Full of Stars" that plays around opening time, there are a lot of songs with a lot of remixes. Quote
silver2005 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 If I were you, I'd keep some paper and a pen in my pocket for the next time it gets played and write the lyrics down. 3 Quote
malem Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I'm not sure any other park fan site would instantly team up like this to find a song stuck in a member's head. If you still know the tune... perhaps you could hum it to someone who would be willing to hum it (or play it on a musical instrument) into a YouTube video? (Don't look at me.) 8 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 electricsun is still on the right track. It's that same style. But not that song. I tried humming it everywhere possible. I've asked 40 people at once while working. I've gone through the Billboard Top 100 charts for both 2016 and 2015 and haven't found it. And it's also not a song from ERT. It plays during normal park operating hours. 4 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Great idea, malem! Hum the tune (since it's stuck in your head) and save it to youtube, then post the video here and we'll take a shot at it. 2 Quote
malem Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Not everyone has the personality type that could pull off singing into YouTube and posting the link on a public forum. 3 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Quoting malem: Not everyone has the personality type that could pull off singing into YouTube and posting the link on a public forum. But if it will cure the madness... 2 Quote
PiperArcher Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I wonder if the Shazam app would be able to pick it up if you sang/hummed what you know to it. 2 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I wonder if the Shazam app would be able to pick it up if you sang/hummed what you know to it. Failing that, also give SoundHound a try. I've had a lot of success identifying songs via SoundHound, although I've only tried the singing/humming search once. 5 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I have used every app possible. I've hummed it, I've sung it, I've even attempted to play it on a virtual keyboard. I don't know what to do with my life anymore. This has consumed every waking hour... 5 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Here's the link to the Musipedia keyboard melody search... http://www.musipedia.org/js_piano.html EDIT: Wow, I have to be quicker with this... 3 Quote
silver2005 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Ok, clues so far- -female artist -octave jump - a word with a long u - slow start, moderate tempo - electronic Question- when you say the singer in the chorus 'moves up in pitch', does the whole song do that? (trying to determine if the song has a key change) 5 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Well, in other news, after ten long years, I finally rode Vortex again today! All is right with the world. Now back to this actually fun and intriguing music search! 9 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 About the pitch change: (considering the fact I have absolutely no knowledge of music)...it reminds me of, to keep it related to Kings Island, a roller coaster. It goes up and up and up and then back down. 3 Quote
shark6495 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Any other words you can think of Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
PiperArcher Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Here's a thought, if you can hum part of it, download an app that hears and displays the pitch you are humming at, then write down and post the notes in order. The one I have on my phone is PanoTuner. Should be free. Maybe we can find it that way... 2 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Cool song! Bouncy Motown vibe! Maybe there's an electronic remix out there? Love the stepping semitones in this one! Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 There's an electronic-sounding song with high-range, female vocals called "Hold My Hand" by Jess Glynne, that I hear often there at the park. 2 Quote
silver2005 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 jdawg- could you list some artists with similar voice ranges? 2 Quote
coastercub Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I think the song is called Stereo Love by Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina 2 Quote
silver2005 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 12 bar blues progressions are catchy.... Duffy- Mercy 3 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 ^^@coastercub - I really love the accordion in that song! It reminds me of International Street of old! 5 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Well. That was actually another song I was dying to figure out. So thank you for that. But that's still not the song I've been describing. 5 Quote
silver2005 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt your regularly scheduled Kings Island discussion for Decoding Music 2016. 11 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I sank another 80 boats on WWC today... back to the music conundrum... 11 Quote
