Anybody else have that issue? How did you solve it?

I got this joint stuck in my head from when I was probably between 5-8.

Which is late 80's, early 90's.

It's a joint from a woman singing a song and that's all I know :no:. I think it was a love song too.

I only know the melody.

And I was living in Europe at the time (Amsterdam)

I wonder if I will ever find it. The fact that I still remember that song from such a young age must mean that the song was a big record,

or else it would've never been registered in my brain.

edit : I think I remember the video of it too. I just vaguely remember a car and thats it :facepalm:

On a side note, these last couple of months, I was successfull in finding two joints from my childhood.

These where two joints that I thought that I would never rediscover again

but the difference with these two songs is that I had a bit more info so I was able to backtrack and do some research and find it.

If you had a windows phone you could press the search and then the music note button and find out what this record is.

This is sly and the family stone's stand.
from the few seconds I held my phone up.
when, I switched to the tablet and used my phone on the link.

lol, my gf actually does have a windows phone and I have android. We both tried the music button and sound hound and a few others and still can't find the song. I'm guessing its British, maybe someone like Paul Hardcastle or Thomas Dolby, maybe even a German song. Any guesses?

My phone said stand by sly and the family stone but I did not double check to see if it was right.
It actually played for two seconds and my phone found it pretty speedy.

UPDATE : double checked the link and this was not stand.

I would have to probably look up old break beats and see if it pops up as a hyper link.
I found a lot of bboy breaks like that.
UPDATE : this maybe a mix and you should just rip it off youtube using youtube to mp3

R.J.'S Latest Arrival-Shackles.flv - YouTube


Song is a mix but shackles on my feet by rj's latest arrival is the main break.
If you like that mix you should rip it off youtube.
It said 107.5 and if it is anything like gci like the chi where I am from.
It was a late night mix.

I remember Shackles on My feet. Just bothers me I never knew who did that first song. I'm big on Paul Hardcastle and Kraftwerks and that song always seemed to be in that lane.

This song was stuck in my head all of my childhood, teens, and into my mid 20s before I found out what it was


I had almost thought i figured it out when Trick Daddy did a song that flipped it, but I still didnt know until much later.
