Posting for traffic - sorry!

I’ve got a song in my head and I have no idea what it is.

The annoying thing is I don’t know any of the lyrics - I just have (what I think is) the main part of the tune, and have no idea how to identify it.

I think it’s a fairly recent song and maybe it’s been used on an advert, but I can’t think which one (maybe McDonalds or KFC?)

The best way I can describe the bit of the song in my head is that it’s played on some synths or something and sounds quite upbeat and summery, and the rhythm is something like: Doo doo doo do-do-do-do-do-do, doo doo doo do-do-do-do-do-do.

I thought it might be something by Macklemore maybe, but just checked on Spotify and none of their songs seem to be like this.

Could anyone help??

Is anyone else picturing their marketing analytics guy checking out the YouTube stats and wondering ate they've just had eleventh billion hits originating from mumsnet? Grin

*ate should be wtf but my phone likes to assume I'm wrong and passive aggressively correct my spelling and grammar whilst I'm not looking

Well Done Lady.! To get it without the voice clip is even more amazing.

I prefer your vocal version Lima to the actual song. I think vocoders should be banned - awful things.
