What's this song

[thehungryteacher]

I apologise in advance for my appalling musicality. It's like a really rousing choral piece I thinks it really modern I tried to hum it to Google but it didn't work because I am so terrible I think it vocalising (?) but I maybe in another language I cannot remember. It goes something resembling this

Mana mana moooooo may yaaaaa may ya x 2

They repeated and get higher and I can't remember the rest of it

Can anyone even understand this!?

Adiemus, Karl Jenkins

Deliberately not in a real language, so don't expect to understand it!

@SleepyTraveller that's what jumped into my head too.
The one used in an advert years ago with a kid swimming under water?

Scott Milks (Radio 2) has a segment called Music Police whereby people send in their music snippets ( or voice notes) and people try and work it out.

Ah thank you that is it!

I hadn’t heard that before. Thank you for bringing it to my attention, it’s really good.

@thehungryteacher you should be proud of your interpretation of the music 😁

Oh I will take that compliment graciously!

I need some "global" inspired music the other day and this is perfect but I could not remember it! I've just been reading about it and it makes sense why it would have been perfect

I really like it.

I absolutely love these threads and how the first poster knew based on your description 😂

Knew it was Adiemus immediately too. I remember it was used on the Delta Airlines ad too years ago.

However, I learned last week that Michael Jackson does not say 'mama say mama sah mo sambo bah'

In fact he says 'I'm going to say it once again I'm not going to stop'.

Mind blown!

Do you mean in Wanna Be Starting something?

Genius! Love this piece.

How the feck did you get that!! 😅

All the times I’ve used the Song Tapper website and the Google function to hum a song in desperation and all I needed was you!

These are the actual "lyrics" of the part I meant - they are just sound s
