When I was a kid this used to cause some serious trouble - how to find it? How to find the song that you cannot live without anymore?
Nowadays of course, things are different. With the help of global internet one can easily find out what they're looking for. Googling the lyrics and you should be fine.
Not that this cannot be tricky. Like for example, I heard a song in the TV show Nip/Tuck once, maybe just 10 seconds, but it sparked an eternal flame. So, I looked up the show's fanpages, and as all important TV shows of our time, these sites have sections about the music that was featured in the different episodes. It was easy to find out which song I fell in love with, it said: Emergency - theme song. Yay! So, off to find it. On the internet. Which album is it on, who are the musicians, and how to get it?
Four hours later I had to understand that this band may be cousins of one of the production assistants, or some US local phenomenon that no one ever heard of before. In any way, I could not find the band, nor the song, nor anything that was of help. Obviously, this song was never officially released.. no way to find it. No one had it, no one heard of it.
This must have been about four years ago now. Why do I post this? CARE TO GUESS? I FOUND IT!!!
"Emergency" was sort of right, their name was The Emergency, later they changed it to Enemy Ships and called their first (and only) album "The Emergency". And 'theme song' was on it... and I have it. I HAVE IT!!
Why I googled it again today I don't know. And I was close to giving up again (I'm a good googler, you see? So if it takes me 1 hour to find something, it obviously doesn't exist).
Thanks to the kind people who made this one forum thread about the band and the album - without you, I'd be nothing.
Never, never, never, never give up.
