    Hello all, * DISCLAIMER: This is completely serious... ;) Yesterday one coworker came and said: "Do you have the [na naa nnaaa naaa naaaa naaa...] song? You know my pain... I can now not remove that damned song from my mind but I don't know which one it is... Is there something out there that would be capable to tell it to me? I would not like to start singing that song to all the human beings near to me in my village... who knows I can create a dramatic climate change due to my bad attitudes singing... :sigh: As always thank you in advance... PS: if you want I will write the complete [naaa] thing... ;)

      That worked about as well as I expected! Tried it with many songs and it couldn't recognise any and kept suggesting Hey Jude, whatever speed I tapped! Rich

          yes, tho it took me a while to remember where i'd seen it, you can check this out: [^][^] it's an amazon s3 mashup that allows you to 'whistle' in the tune and then you just 'wait' for someone to respond to your request with suggestions. it's also quite a good little example for using S3 as well :) jimi

              Taking into account the the person singing the song can at least sing, or follow a tune. For the rest of us who are 'vocally' challanged I'd love to see the software that can take some badly muttered and distorted chords and find a song that matches. With my luck - everything from Spice Girls to Abba will be interpreted as "OG the Caveman - Killing His Cat" Take Care All

              With luck and knowing the guys in the IT department... it will be more as "Marilyn Manson - Massacring His Cat"... But thank you... :rose:

                If anyone around you has an iPhone, the free Midomi app does just that. You sing into it, and it finds the song. Sometimes, it seems like magic. :-) (Not so much, though, when you're a programmer and you have a pretty good idea on how it's done.)

                    Do you mean wrong guess or "wrong" in that I came up with Kenny G?

                    Guessing Kenny G. That's one small step from admitting you know Celine Dion songs.

                    Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

                                Perhaps it's "Na Na Hey Kiss them goodbye" by Steam[^] That song tends to stick in my head.... oh great, there it is. :-\

                                    I'm surprised that no rock-nerd guys have mentioned the original "rock star" video game, "Journey" http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8242[^] Not a fun game, but a hilarious pop-cultural footnote.

                                      Based on your limited description, it could also be "Angel is a Centerfold" by the J. Geils Band. The chorus is like that. (and now I've got THAT song stuck in my head....)

                                          Hello all, * DISCLAIMER: This is completely serious... ;) Yesterday one coworker came and said: "Do you have the [na naa nnaaa naaa naaaa naaa...] song? You know my pain... I can now not remove that damned song from my mind but I don't know which one it is... Is there something out there that would be capable to tell it to me? I would not like to start singing that song to all the human beings near to me in my village... who knows I can create a dramatic climate change due to my bad attitudes singing... :sigh: As always thank you in advance... PS: if you want I will write the complete [naaa] thing... ;)

                                          I just saw an iPhone app that will allow you to hum a song and it will identify it. I haven't tried it yet, so I can't vouch for it's accuracy. It's called Midomi. Good luck. Michael
