da da da da dahhhhhhhhh duh da duhh da

[BarTopDancer]

Got a song stuck in my head - only know the melody. I know there are words to it but they are not coming to me. But it goes like this: da da da da dahhhhhhhhh duh da duhh da duh da da da daaaaaaa da da da.

Too bad Google can't identify it

[Stan4dSteph]

Do a search for that website where you can tap out the melody and it will guess the song for you. I think GD posted a link to it here a while back.

That was songtapper.com from this thread

Based on your description it suggests:

De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da by the Police.

They're meaningless and all that's true

Poets, priests and poiticians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
'Cos when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da

I was thinking Da Da Da by Trio

aha
aha
aha

What you will and what you won't
What you do and what you don't
What you can and what you can't
This is what you need to know:
Loved you though it didn't show

Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, da da da

da da da
da da da
da da da

Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me

(whispered)
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht.

I know why you ran away, aha
Understand you couldn't stay, aha
Wonder where you are today, aha
After all was said and done
It was right for you to run!

Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, aha
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht, da da da

da da da
da da da
da da da

Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me
Da da da I don't love you you don't love me

da da da (repeat to fade)

[Tref]

Sounds a little like "Da da da da dahhhhhhhhh duh da duhh (Da duh da da da daaaaaaa da da da) to me.

[CoasterMatt]

Don't Whiz On The Electric Fence...

[BarTopDancer]

Public mojo for Moonliner since I must spread mojo around first- I forgot all about songtapper.

[Moonliner]

And I'm sending Stan4dSteph some Public Mojo cuz she reminded me it was out there and of course to GD for the original post.

Some days it takes a village.





Ps. Did it work? What was the song?

[BarTopDancer]

I haven't had a chance to look at all the suggestions.

I do know it was an 80s song around the time of Phil Collins and Rod Stewart's height.

[wendybeth]

Are you referring to their stature, or their level of popularity?


The Police song was real big in the early eighties, but you're do's and dah's don't match the song's, so I'm guessing it's something else.
