Is there something out there that would allow to sing a song and...

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....)

Clearly you need to visit Alternative Search Engines, the one stop shop for unusual searches.... http://www.altsearchengines.com/[^] There are a number of music search engines; can't remember if you can hum the tune to any yet.... ;)

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

We had fun playing with this last Christmas. You sing or hum a tune and it gives you suggestions of what it is based on recordings by other people. http://www.midomi.com/[^] It worked well for some songs, not so much for others. The idea I think is that people tend to remember the same catchy parts of songs.

"Angel is the Centerfold"? Can't think who it's by.

Are we talking about "Hey Jude" or the Star Wars theme song? :)

[Paul G McKee]

Yes. http://www.midomi.com. It has worked amazingly well for me.

I'd bet money you're talking about Journey - Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' [Journey Lyrics]

How could NOBODY have guessed the Katamari Damacy theme song yet? Is it Katamari On the Rocks[^]? :D (the 'na's start at around 30 seconds)

Midomi Allows you to sing or hum a song and it will tell you the name.

[Scott Barbour]

Perhaps it was "Hush" by Deep Purple? We are all dying to know what song it was. :)

From the lyrics (eh sort of!...) you have written, I strongly feel you mean the title song of R K Narayan's Malgudi Days. Listen to the title song here: http://ishare.rediff.com/filemusic.php?id=11460[] Let the music go in few seconds you will hear what you wrote there. Let me know if I'm correct at guessing it :)
