This is driving me mad. Can anyone help me find the artist and song name for this bluddy song please so I can find it and listen. This first bit is going round in my head and I have to listen in full to make it go away! I think it’s 1990’s / 2000’s. Thanking you in advance 🙏

Naaa, na-na na naaa,
na-na na naa, na-na naa, na-na naa,
na-na na naaa.

….continues like this for a bit then says “I’m the lyrical (*or possibly miracle) gangster….”

Watch the Car Share episode with Reece Sheersmith and you’ll hear it in all its glory!

the outtakes are even better!

As others have said, you just had to google the lyrical gangster lyric and you’d have it.

Why is everyone saying Hey Jude?? Is people’s reading comprehension really so poor?

ShyMaryEllen · 25/09/2025 20:56

The rhythm of the night?

BlakeCarrington · 25/09/2025 20:56

That’s it!! Hooray! Thanks so much, it is indeed “Here comes the Hotstepper” which I am
now listening to on high volume and it’s itching my brainworm beautifully! Aaaah that’s better.

Thanks everyone! 🤩

I actually recognised this solely from your thread title, good work OP!

I'm the lyrical dance flap.....for any Car Share fans!

Which is actually the reason I have earworm
for this song in the first place… I was sure it wasn’t really talking about dance flaps!

Imagining Paul McCartney as a lyrical gangster is quite funny though.

10 years earlier and it could have been Bananarama.

That's what I was thinking!

Nana na na naaaa na … we’re all gonna start a fight !! …. Anddddd so what I’m still a rock star ! …. 😂😂😂

That's what I thought too

DonaldBiden · 25/09/2025 21:11

Na na na by chemica romance?

There's no limit.....

This is also a good suggestion, and v ear worm worthy, but I think that would be:

No no, no-no
No no, no-no
No no, no-no
No no, there’s no limit!

BlakeCarrington · 25/09/2025 21:15

And the Hey Jude suggestions are also most welcome, but in my head that one goes:

Naaa, na na na-na na naaa
Na-na na naaa
Hey Juuude

It’s all in the naa na-na sequences!

Thank you all for curing my ear worm and giving me a couple more.

Oh dear, all I can hear is Hey Jude......and I will hear it all night, and tomorrow, and tomorrow etc.
Thanks for that. I don't even like the damn song

Agapornis · 25/09/2025 21:20

Five/5ive - Got the feelin? Nana na na nanana, nana na na nana!

(joke, knew what you meant from the title)

jasminocereusbritannicus · 25/09/2025 21:21

My first thought was “ kiss him goodbye “ by Bananarama… till I saw the lyrical gangster bit.!!!

Shardlake63 · 25/09/2025 21:23

Kylie - Can't get you out of my head???

Madtherapist · 25/09/2025 21:23

I’m now going to bed with this song in my head.
Nah, na na na nah, na na na nah
Na na nah, na na nah, na na na nah

Secretsrevealed · 25/09/2025 21:24

Based on this thread, I just had to share this person's luck with finding their song 🤣...

Claireabella111 · 25/09/2025 21:25

P!nk - so what?

WeeGeeBored · 25/09/2025 21:25

Yellowaveo59 · 25/09/2025 20:50

Hey Jude

Renegade master

Edited

This is what I thought.

“I am the walrus”

@BlakeCarrington is it not this one Bananarama - Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye) (Official Video)

- YouTube

Enjoy the videos and music that you love, upload original content and share it all with friends, family and the world on YouTube.

BlakeCarrington · 25/09/2025 21:38

Ooh that’s also an excellent suggestion @allthemiddlechildrenoftheworld and other bananarama sugesters, but I think the na-naaa’s are out of sequence. That one goes:

Na-na naaa na
Na-na naaa na
Ay-ay-ay
Goodbye
