Would It Be Possible To Get Help Finding This Song?


Hello,

I have an “Off The Wall” question. I just happened to come across this T.V. show called “The Five” on the Fox Network. I think it was on Friday (06/09/23), but it may have been the Wednesday’s or Thursday’s show. Just after Greg Gutfeld finished his comments, they went to a commercial. They played a song and the male singer had the sound of “Simple Red” or “Chris de Burgh”. It was a very short sound clip with an aerial view of Times Square. I had the show recorded and I was going to use “Shazam” to see if I could identify the song, even thou it was a very short sound clip. Then by accident the show was deleted. It is now Tuesday and I have tried every “Keyword Search” to find this song!! The melody has been playing in my Head over & over (Ear Worm), but now it is starting to fade and it is getting harder to remember it. By a very, very slim chance, I listened to a lot of the “Simple Red” & “Chris de Burgh” Catalogs, knowing that it probably is not done by them at all. I really need to find this song!! As I mentioned this is “Off The Wall”, and not necessarily a question for all of you good people at Audiogon. I am a faithful reader and have seen similar questions on our forum. I am 65 years old and have listen to music everyday my whole life by streaming stations with all genres. I have heard this song through the years, but not very often. I don’t know if you have ever had a song that instantly caught your Ear? I know that I am not offering much for glues here.  If there would be the slightest chance that someone could help me out, I would very much appreciate it.  I am very sorry for this very long message all in the quest to find one song!!

Thank You So Much!!

Based on the show, and network you were watching, I would have to conclude that the song you are looking for is garbage. 

I expected someone to say something to this effect, congrats @fjship for being first.

Perhaps you meant "assume" and not "conclude"?     

I checked my deleted recordings and it wasn't there, and I looked online and they delete the fade ins and outs when they go to a commercial, sorry.

 

I completely understand that you are fed up with all the news these days. I am at that point!” 
If this is true, I’m afraid watching Fox News is not going to help.  
In far too many ways to mention.  

Maybe you could email someone at Fox News or find some online forum where Fox viewers are likely to be, ask the same question, perhaps that would be a more fertile ground for answers.  

I try my darndest to just catch at least one line or a couple lyrics in these situations. If I can’t immediately Google that tiny fragment of lyrics, I write ‘em down on the nearest piece of paper before I forget and stick it in my wallet for later. It usually works.  
I’ve nabbed many cool hitherto-unknown songs that way.  

I understand this doesn’t help you at all right now. I’m just relaying something that’s worked for me in the past in these situations, if that’s at all remotely helpful.

Thanks @macg19 for the well wishes! No assumption here, but there is an ass in “assume”

  1. bring (something) to an end

'Ear worms' are like 'moon worms'.....

...they just like to live inside your head until you finally get used to them, and fade.

Just to pop up later, 'situationally'... 😏

...too many times...
