What is this song? Losing my mind ...

Male singer, slow grunge-y emo type balland, yearning vocals, slow build, melodic, quite up and down in the tones. Similar to Radiohead's Talk Show Host but less rock-y.
"I want to be ... la la la la la la" or similar vocals in the hook.
It may have been used in a recent TV programme or trailer, it's kind of spooky. Please can you help?!

Hostage - Billy Ellish - female recording artist but perhaps a male cover?

None of those, sorry! Thank you for trying to help!
I don't really keep up with newer music, or anything not-mainstream so this is really helpful (and kind of interesting, I am discovering a lot of good songs!)

Muse 'Hysteria'?

SpeckofStardust · 15/05/2019 14:05

Muse - Aftermath?

Not really Radiohead-y but the la-la-la-la (guitar riff rather than sung) and the yearning quality are there.

NoSauce · 15/05/2019 14:49

I thought of Muse but the OP said not. I hope she finds out who it was though Grin

asdou · 15/05/2019 14:56

This one? Has a gentle soft melody and voice. Lyrics might not be what you're referencing though...

My Blood
Twenty One Pilots
When everyone you thought you knew
Deserts your fight, I'll go with you
You're facin' down a dark hall
I'll grab my light
And go with you, I'll go with you
I'll go with you, I'll go with you
I'll go with you, I'll go with you
I'll go with you, I'll go with you
Surrounded and up against a wall
I'll shred 'em all and go with you
When choices end, you must defend
I'll grab my bat
And go with you, I'll go with you
I'll go with you, I'll go with you, yeah
Stay with me, no, you don't need to run
Stay with me, my blood, you don't need to run
Stay with me, no, you don't need to run
Stay with me, my blood, you don't need to run
If there comes a day
People posted up at the end of your driveway
They're callin' for your head and they're callin' for your name
I'll bomb…
