OK, here's an idea, have you ever heard a song and wanted to either buy or download it but you can't figure out what it's called or who it's by?
Well here's a thread where we can try to identify the songs we want so that we can get them...

...Incase I'm not making myself clear here's an example:

Can anyone identify the song from the start of the movie 'I, Robot'? It's the one that Will Smith's character plays as he wakes up at the very start of the film, I know I'm hopeless :o but I can't think what it is.

I believe this thread has been made a few times before, but I can't help you on the song.

jerk it out

by caesars (thats the correct band name and yeah its spelled that way, and if you download it illegally it will probably be under like 'ceasar's palace' or 'the ceasars' but its just 'caesars')

the green ipod commercial right, thats like "and you feeel it runnin' throught ya bones and you jerk it out"

2 places that make the whole process lots faster.

1) Letssingit.com - you can seach lyric phrases, like the line of the song you know

2) Amazon.com - search for the soundtrack, then listen for the one you want

"Leadbelly" was a GOD of music :D Where did you sleep last night - another one resurrected by modern arists :D
Skiffle in the UK was popularised by a cover of his Rock Island Line.

What's that song used in those new eBay commercials? (The one where it shows the "it" car coming out of the car wash and the TV shaped like "it"?

I think the song was done by the Monkees, but I'm not 100% sure.
