Help identify this song

I have this song stuck in my head. I don’t know any of the words, or who sang it, or when, but I can’t get it out of my head.

It goes:

Dum dum dum dum dum
dum dum dum dum dum dum
dum dum dum dum dum DUM
dum dum dum dum dum dum
dum dum dum dum dum dum
dum dum dum dum dum du-u-u-m.

Please help.

sounds like a dum song

No, no, no, it’s a dum solo

I know what you’re talking about, I’ve heard it in a commercial. I have no idea what it is, though.

It’s that Tums commercial.

Flower Dum Song

wtf?

I dunno. Why don’t you dum a few bars and I’ll try to guess.

I know the one you’re talking about. The chorus is like

la la la la hmm hmm
la la la la hmm hmm
hmm hmm hmm da da dee
la la la laaa

right? I know I’ve heard it, but I can’t remember what it’s called.

Somebody help us!

YES! That’s it! Now, what is it?

Its so obvious what the song is that this must be a joke and I’m not going to woosh myself by posting the song title!

Can’t fool me!


She told me she loved me like a brother. She was from Arkansas, hence the Joy!

Bastard!

I actually did have a song stuck in my head yesterday, and did post the “dum’s” in time to the music. I really didn’t think anyone could help me. So it is a joke. Just a little disclaimer to show that I’m not an idiot, I’m a loser.

Hey, maybe we can make a new game outta this!

I’ll start it off with a couple that should be fairly easy (and with the added hint that both pieces are featured in the same movie, this should be a dead giveaway).

Piece 1:

dum, dum, DUM…DA-DUM!
(bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom, bom)

Piece 2:

dum dum dum dum dum, deet deet, doot doot
dum dum dum dum dum, deet deet, doot doot

I’ll play too.

What’s this?

Dum, dum, dum, PISH!
Dum, dum, dum, PISH!
Dum, dum, dum, PISH!
etc.

The intro on the first song from a near perfect debut album.

Should be pretty easy…

Cabbage, if we’re actually playing a game…

The first is “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the second is “The Blue Danube.”

Oh, and is that “Bone Machine” by the Pixies, Hüsker Düde?

Nope, it could’ve been though, but that wasn’t the song I was thinking off.

Hint: The Pixies recorded a cover version of another song by this band.

Lisa-go-Blind

What gave it away? Was it the oh-so appropriately placed comma in “(bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom**,** bom)”?
:wink:

Here’s another one:

dummm-dit donnalit down, bah din, bah din-din

Hint:It’s one of the most famous guitar licks of all time, by the most famous rock band of all time

It’s an interesting challenge to see if you can capture enough of the rhythm, without reference to melody, to make it recognizable.

Hmm… Try the new one by the White Stripes… think its them…

I actually know a song that starts with Dum Dum Dum etc.

No, no, that would be

boom boom CHA boom boom
CHA
boom boom boom CHA boom boom
CHA

How 'bout this one (another first track on a great album), Beavis and Butthead style. Raise your fists in the air:

ja ja, ja ja, ja ja, ja ja
jajajaja
ja ja, ja ja, ja ja, ja ja
jajajaja

hint:

By the same guy who recorded the above Pixies track
