One of the longest MYSTERIOUS MUSIC searches comes to an end!

In 2005, a 30-second clip of an unknown song was uploaded to the internet. After music enthusiasts spent years searching for the complete track, a longer (but still incomplete) version surfaced on KZbin in 2024. This major development sparked a resurgence in interest to identify the song once and for all…
MUSIC:
"Bravely" by Beat Boy
"Girl" by Beat Boy
"Never Surrender" by Anno Domini Beats

It's kind of funny that the answer to the mystery was one of the most biggest pop composers in Estonia. Sven Lõhmus is the man who created the girl group Vanilla Ninja. His songs have won awards, ended up on Eurovision, and he was the member in the band Black Velvet which was huge in the mid to late 90s in Estonia.

[@Staarchild97]

I saw the name Sven Lõhmus and even though I'm not Estonian, I recognised the name. I looked him up and he went on to do *a lot* of composing and producing for Estonian Eurovision entries. Probably his most famous production work is Rockefeller Street, the nightcore version of which went on to become one of the god-tier songs of early 2010s KZbin. Such a wild connection.

I'll never forget a song I heard twice in the late 2000s, specifically 2009. I had a classic style vinyl record player with a radio component. I was browsing through stations and all of a sudden I came across a song playing on a station I can't remember that went like "This little man, this little man" with almost big band style drums with the vocalist sounding very similar to Colin Hay from men at work. I heard the song again at a Carnival I went to later that year briefly, then after it stopped I never heard it again. I can't find it anywhere on the internet or even a sign it existed. I'm convinced it was something local that eventually became 100% lost media.

[@CWSchultz]

If you don't remember what station you heard it on, but you think it's a local musician and you heard it a second time at a carnival… what area are you from and do you remember the carnival you attended? This could help. Thank you for the new mystery, Ian!

[@tristan_840]

What do you think is the genre of the song? Does it sound actually like its time or does it sound more of like old jazz or 70s or 80s rock?

[@CWSchultz]

@@tristan_840 Great question, Tristan! I think answers will change from person to person. My assumption was something from the late-'80s.

Pretty interesting to see how peoples perspectives on the world are so different.

My respect and kudos to everyone who worked on solving the mistery! (and having to deal with our language haha)

[@akoznasovajusername]

I have many more unknown songs from the 80's that I collected from a various forums and blogs from 2002 to 2015. Most of them are not on the internet since then. Konstantinos is my friend. We were obsessed with finding and solving unknown 80's songs back then, and community was unfortunately very small. I suggested Touzent - Lost And Found as a possibillity and Konstantinos bought the record to check it. Marek was actually never interested in this song, he only wanted to help.

[@CWSchultz]

Thanks for the details! If I do a follow-up video on "Bravely", I'll be sure to add that information.

Due to personal issues which I won’t be discussing here, February 27th was one of the most devastating days I’ve had in recent memory. All I can remember is just collapsing and crying, realising that something that was a big part of my life had just been completely erased. I wish I had actually known about this find on the day it happened, because it would have definitely cheered me up. It’s such a charming and beautiful little tune. I’m still struggling to comprehend what happened on that day and how it will affect me, but all these new Lostwave discoveries are giving me hope that maybe the future isn’t as scary as I think.

This video is encouraging because I recorded a song off the radio with my phone back on May 30, 2017. It was an old phone and loading SoundHound would have lasted about as long as the song, which would have made it for nothing. SoundHound couldn't identify the music from my recording so I uploaded it to my KZbin channel. No person and no app has identified the song so far. It sucks because I really like the song. It sounds like a more aggressive version of New Order in the Power, Corruption, and Lies era. All the DJ had to do was say the artist's name and song title. I also like finding rare and obscure new wave/synth-pop. I never heard of this specific mystery song until this video. I like this Beat Boy stuff.

Now it's been found it's likely to get forgotten like many other songs have in the past that were never lost. It's only the search for it that kept it alive.

[@CWSchultz]

Perhaps. But the mystery potentially got more people to listen and appreciate the song than if it was never lost. The song got its due credit and then some; and I think that's a good lesson, to never underestimate something that didn't become popular or gain traction when it was first release. We put too much thought into the next big thing that "drops", when we've only scratched the surface of all the things we might like already in existence.

[@j.tann1970]

@@CWSchultz I totally agree. I guess my comment came off kinda neutral but I was thinking it's a pity that it was found because now it will get forgotten.

This was the inspiration for the 1980 song Spirit of Radio by Rush. there was a Vancouver west coast version of the Spirit Of Radio in Vancouver called CKST, aka Coast 800 AM Later Coast 1040 riding the wave of the 1990's alternative/ grunge explosion. I became a regular listener for the brief 3 years that they existed. Sadly Like the Toronto's original Spirit of Radio which ended in 1988, Vancouver's Coast 1040 went silent in September of 1993.

All of the people helping in finding a lost song is nice. When I was a child, I once listened to a song on a relative's radio thst goes: "Take me to the dance floor, Take me to the moon. I'll take you anywhere and boom, boom, boom." Every now and then I remember the lyrics and the tune but I can't seem to find it online. I get this feeling of sadness thinking that I will never find the song again. Edit: RadicoolJatt told me the song. It is "Happy Group - Boom Boom".

Don't give up! Just because the lyrics don't pop up in a Google search doesn't make it impossible. Someone still might recognize it if you continue to spread the word. The mysterious song "I Keep Looking" was sought after by many, but the lyrics weren't in Google; however, with enough sharing on music forums, someone eventually recognized it as "The Livin' And The Dyin'" by Jim Dawson.

Here's an interesting fact: EKT actually wasn't the first mysterious song to be found in an adult film! Both "Friends" and "Please Don't Stop" were also active searches that wound up in a similar situation. So, it's definitely happened before. However, compared to how other mysterious songs were identified, it's still very unlikely that TMS's origins is hiding somewhere in a dirty movie. Furthermore, it's been confirmed that TMS was recorded off the radio; whereas the origins for EKT, Friends and "Please Don't Stop" were all vague (for reasons that are obvious now). As such, I think our time is better spent looking for TMS hiding somewhere other than a vintage adult film; however, there are probably some out there who are more than happy to continue "researching" this theory. 🤣

I have another lost song to mention. Unfortunately, I have no audio to upload. The song came out most likely in late 1992. I heard it on the radio show called U.K. Chart Attack. The song sampled the notorious "squidgy" tapes of Princes Diana with her alleged lover. Male vocals in the beginning in a rap style. He repeated " You'll always be a princess to me, you'll always be a princess". It goes on with the rapper alongside the Diana samples until the chorus is sung by a female vocalist singing the word "Princess" about 4 times in repetition. The dj on UK chart attack said the name of the track was "Princess" by an artist called Blue. I once had this song on tape from that show, but it has been lost to time. I have searched for years to locate this song with no success. It's as if the song never existed. Has anyone out there heard, or heard of this song ??? #squidgy #princessdiana #ukchartattack #lostsong #lostsongs

I have a recording of a demo (I believe) that was played on a local college radio station back in the early nineties. I saved that one tape for thirty years because I liked the song. Sometimes I wonder though, if they never released the song, do they even want it to be found?

[@CWSchultz]

Thanks for sharing! I think I speak for several people when I say that it's worth your time to find a way to upload that demo. Even musicians who created a mysterious song in the distant past and are far removed from their band and that style of music, almost all of them are flattered when they find out that people were looking for their music.

[@anxylum]

@@CWSchultz ah, okay. I can upload a clip. 😊 Is there a place to share in case anyone might know more about the artist? At the end of the recording the DJ said the name of the song, (and perhaps the artist, but not sure…) but I still can’t get anywhere googling it. Maybe I’ll come across someone who knows a lot about 90s indie pop in Los Angeles? 😃

[@CWSchultz]

@@anxylum I think the best place to start is r/LostWave. Looking forward to hearing it!

[@anxylum]

@@CWSchultz thank you, will do! ☺️

[@tyx823]

amazing, you are back.

[@electricwizard3000]

That's cool. I always thought this was just another internet prank. Glad lots of folks are feeling relief over this.

[@drenasifferman7109]

This music is timeless. I enjoyed this.

[@Markiegee55]

The legend has returned!!

[@mvramos]

I’ve also been looking for a song from the late 90s / early 00s thad was all synths, with vocals with that robot effect, but with amazing organic drum parts - the contrast between the organic drums and the electronic everything else was awesome. Unfortunately all I remember is hearing it in clubs and the lyrics that said (I think) something like “deep under glass” and “buried in the sea”. I’ve never been able to find it.

[@MYNAMECHEF_FilthyFrank]

"Everyone knows that" needs to be found before I convince myself I'm Insane for hearing It several times In my youth

[@ChainsGoldMask]

I'm trying to find a music video. I don't know the band or the song name. The video is the band in a van heading to the beach. There is a girl waiting outside to get picked up. But the band drives right past her and she acts upset. This repeats for a few days until the band finally picks her up and they're all playing around on the beach. There is a large rock sticking out of the water. It was on tv around the time Vampire Weekend did an unplugged set. It would play on Paladia all the time. I used to have it saved on my dvr a long time ago, but I don't have it anymore. I have had zero success trying to search on my own. Thanks for reading this. 🍻

[@CWSchultz]

Thanks for sharing! Your memory of the music video is detailed enough that I encourage you to post your question to r/tipofmytongue on Reddit. There's a good chance someone might know it.

[@ELEcomments]

C I A is my favorite lost wave track. I hope it gets found soon.... I've spent so much time trying to find it...

[@frenchabortion]

Soulseek is the shit. I got so many rare Dwarves cuts I uploaded (lots of Blag Dahlia’s solo stuff)

[@March14thTheDayThatKrabsFrys]

1:07 this made me laugh more then it should have.

[@kf160k160]

Actually I got a song but not knowing what is the name. It cannot be recognized by Shazam, Soundhound nor anything under the sun. I once thought of doing detective work by copy the song or remix the song and post it on KZbin and put a bait like "I compose this song and the credit is mine." I doing this on purpose, so I can get copyright strike so I can get to know the song name.

[@kierstenmiller05]

That is really smart actually

[@asterlofts1565]

When they released the complete and quality music, I really thought it would be music from the 80's, but it's from the 90's, which surprised me. You can see the inspiration that the artist had from the last decade...

[@jaketheman091]

So it seems like this song was actually solved early on, but prolonged due to inadvertent negligence. Glad the search persisted and the song was found though!

[@jasonpoletta1797]

Crazy how this video has more views than the song itself

[@Mar.Escobar24]

I get so mad when I find a dope song somewhere and I can’t identify it. It always comes up at random times and no matter what I’m doing, I give it another go 😂 never heard of this one, but it’s happened with a lot of others that would be considered album cuts or underground demos.

[@vvg916happyengineer]

I was thinking Ulteririor motives is solved but oh well. Congrats on this one too.

[@imdoneplus]

Holy ****ing spit! This is a heroic ending to an amazing story.

[@tylerbrunton7696]

Anyone else think this was going to be Check It In Check It Out? Edit: nvm, I see it's more commonly called Like the Wind, and has for sure been brought up.

[@RosssRoyce]

I search for a song since the 80’s, it goes like “…all flowers in the rain let their spirit go flying in the sky….”.

[@jackpijjin4088]

Folks will still say "UMM IT'S OBVIOUSLY AI". For some stupid reason.

i didn't know i was looking for this song until now.

[@foljs5858]

OK, here's a short novelty song I've seen decades ago, but have never been able to find. It said "woke up this morning, gone straight to bed" or something very similar, somewhat like a 12-bar blues style. I remember it being from one of the Carter USM members - but as I said, never been able to find it.

[@jameslong9921]

And here's me thinking the world had lost it's way, nope, just a cheesy 90s song by a post Soviet bloc boy band. All's still well then, whew!

[@fab555trainspottingandmore]

I hope he gets access to the song again for a better quality version. Because this Version we have now isn't the best quality

[@Devil914]

Them Sony WH-XB900N's are great aren't they. I love mine. Great video. I'm just a random viewer, I didn't know anything about this. Awesome when you find an earworm, especially after decades.

[@CWSchultz]

Thank you very much! A song is never too old to be discovered! Glad to hear you like my video. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.

[@MemphiStig]

Never heard of it, but what a cool story.

[@CWSchultz]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for taking the time to comment and watch.

[@npigwnl]

I’ve been looking for a specific Costa Rican song for 16 years. Maybe one day 🤞🏻

[@CWSchultz]

Feel free to share anything you remember about the song. You'd be surprised how the little things can sometimes help identify a mysterious song. Cheers!

[@dontkaze]

there was this one song from 2020 tiktok that i swear just disappeared from the knternet. i've been tryna find it since 2022 but all i got is some of the lyrics with most of em probably being wrong due to me only listening to it. I'll try to put it here to see if anybody else who used tiktok back then could help me find it (???) kiss in the kitchen where it's (effective? not sure), i'm the only one you know tonight, tonight, tonight (dum dum dum dum tss) if any of y'all remember it please reach out, its a core memory atp and yet i don't even know the song

[@retrosauce]

Please find the band "Myopic Void" (NOT the Captain Beefheart album). I had a tape of them back in the day. Some of the best stuff I've ever heard. My brother and I have been looking since the 90s. They have a song called "Twister" if that helps. The EP also included a hilarious prank call to a Chinese restaraunt. Surely, someone out there knows what I'm talking about. I would love to hear that album again.

[@CWSchultz]

I have a list of potential songs to feature in a future video. "Twister" and other Myopic Void songs have been added to the list. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@retrosauce]

@@CWSchultz THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Shyningfade]

This kinda reminds me of that one song you'd only hear in Tops or Walgreens. It's called "A Healthy Feast" (Fast Version) by Sam Martin. Hopefully that comment helps someone! It took years before I finally stumbled across the name.

[@ilips6588]

Funny cause I also found a song in feb this year after a 25-year search which happened to be sung by an artist called beat boy ("the roof is on fire")...

[@-throat-]

Hallelujah!!!!!

[@Musicc-Mann]

Never knew this was missing, if someone told me earlier it wouldnt last 20 years.

[@user-ji7ik7ef3s]

so u knew this song well?

[@Thomas-ry8xq]

Poor christmas is my favorite. Great song.

[@TheoRae8289]

Now if we can just find the "I know you have ulterior motives" source

[@stellarzoneproductions]

Is it just me or is Lostwave 80's pop rock like 50% of the time

[@CWSchultz]

It's not just you, and I think it's probably more than 50%. However, it makes sense if you factor how Lostwave music was preserved. In the 1980s, boomboxes and stereos with cassette recorders became more widespread, so there was a surge of people taping music off the radio. When the internet came into popularity 15ish years later, over 99% of songs on these home-recorded cassettes could be identified with the help of fellow music enthusiasts online. However, that fraction of a percent that can't be identified is part of the Lostwave intrigue. Due to most people who were interested in taping music off of the radio in the 1980s were young and listened to pop rock (because that type of music was geared towards young people), there's a higher amount of mysterious songs that fall into that category.

[@stellarzoneproductions]

@@CWSchultz I see, thanks! I also think it's funny how genres ending with "wave" (e.g. vaporwave, synthwave, lostwave) are all clearly 80's inspired as opposed to the majority of "core" genres
