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??

Hi, I'm pretty sure it's the Bacardi add and I love that song. Please see the link.

Are the ‘doos’ words or part of the instrumental music?

QueenBeex · 26/04/2019 21:45

read page 11 of the thread, OP is no longer searching for the song as PP found it for her

But now on page 14 Devilinatwinset is needing help identifying a song. Grin

Hooooooray

PunishmentSnart · 26/04/2019 21:49

I’ve had a case of not reading the full thread coz I was so excited to get the song and now I’ve gone back and heard voice notes and everything. I love this thread (and also that song!)

When it's next on click on the microphone on Google. Then click on "what's this song" and it should give you the answer. Hope this helps.

strawberrisc · 26/04/2019 23:55

What programme were you watching when it came on in an ad break. Someone here may have it recorded...

LimaLemur · 26/04/2019 23:59

Awww thanks for your help, everyone!! :)

Devilinatwinset I really hope you find out the name of the song! I’m not sure what it is but I’ll have a think for you - just bumping this so others can help you out too!

PS Oh my god, how adorable to you sound in your voice clip??

Devilinatwinset · 27/04/2019 01:42

Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you so fucking much strawberrisc & LimaLemur for this thread. Weeks. WEEKS I've had those words in my head GrinWine

AggiePanther · 27/04/2019 02:03

Here's the advert if it's not been posted yet

MyNameIsAlexDrake · 27/04/2019 02:07

Ha I had the right artist but wrong advert (Bacardi)!

As I read your update, I could hear the theme from PJ masks blasting from the TV my son is watching and it seems to fit with what you are describing. Sax/Synth

SinkGirl · 27/04/2019 09:50

I can’t be the only one that immediately thought of this

Call a record shop and sing it OP 😂

SinkGirl · 27/04/2019 09:51

Record shop? Oh god, I’m so old.

LimaLemur · 27/04/2019 11:34

Yay glad you got your song mystery solved too Devilinatwinset! :)

I have just read this..I can not believe some genius managed to find the song from the OP's description..this has made my day! Hilarious!!

Lesleyroch · 27/04/2019 23:20

It must be baby shark! If you haven't seen or heard it's a must, you can find it on u tube.

SuspiciouslyMinded · 27/04/2019 23:36

OP, your doo doo doo etc. sounds like Havana by Camila Cabello. I don’t know if it was in an ad and I havent RTWT, so apologies if it’s already been suggested and is not it. Good luck!

YuleMaureen · 27/04/2019 23:41

Hmmm ...... sounds like the old beach boys no. 'Wouldn't it be nice?'

TheFatberg · 28/04/2019 01:52

Guys it's already been solved.
