    The song in the back ground of the fresh prince of bel-air adverts with Geoffrey.

    I think it is a 80's or 90's song, a dance song with a deep guys voice.

    Help please.

    I can't find the trailer on youtube anywhere, but it's a song that's been on recent trailers for the Secret Circle, it's quite a dark sounding song with a man singing and the lyrics are something like "and I'm running out of time, and I'm running out that door"

    Not a lot to go on but someone might recognise it!

    It is not that, but thank you for trying anyway.

    From the sound of the song, it has a black singer with quite a deep voice and it says things like "rock your body". Classic primary school disco stuff

    Damn! I was going to suggest that but I didn't think the lyrics fit. I don't know why I didn't just suggest it anyway.

    I suggest you check out the original by Kate Bush - in my opinion it's far better, but a lot of people prefer Placebo's version.

    Yeah, I got minorly obsessive about it and eventually found the right trailer on the sky living website and then realised I'd got the lyrics wrong. Nice catch bearing in mind how little there was to go on though!

    I've heard this dance tune a few times recently, there are no lyrics to it, at least not in the segments played. It was on Britain's Got Talent tonight during the audition for Twist and Pulse. It sounds a bit like something Prodigy would do. Anyone know what I'm on about? I'll post a link once the auditions are uploaded.

    Anyone know what the violin & piano music here is?

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/i/b01fm5lr/?t=35m13s

    It starts from there and goes for nearly a minute.

    Edit: NVM Shazam found it (The Gravel Road)

    Anyone know what this dance tune is - I heard it first from the Voice opening credits yesterday but I don't know what it is!

    It's in the first 30-55 seconds of this clip

    Cheers!

    Okay this has been bugging me for a few days now, I've looked on Youtube, searched the lyrics in Google, EVERYTHING!!

    On the radio the other day, at the beginning of a song it was like "PUT YOUR HANDS UP, PUT YOUR HANDS UP, PUT YOUR HANDS UP, GET ON THE FLOOR" but I can't find it anywhere!! Anyone know?
