there are plenty other ways, mobile apps, pc apps, It's just about getting the precise notes and tempo so we can hear it.

Lol. Best name-that-tune OP ever.

Sorry it doesn't ring any bells.


Any recollections as far as lyrics? Male/female vocalist? General theme.

Well, yes, you got me there! Male, but I cannot recall on the chorus singers. I really do wish I could remember any lyrics whatsoever, but I just cannot pull anything out of it after all this time. I'll continue to see if I can put down the notes for you all to listen to. I know we've all heard it and as soon as you heard a snip of it, you guys would nail it!

I'm going to try the chorus line I put up, on the keyboard. Perhaps I can duplicate that!

Well, one things for sure, I absolutely suck beyond your wildest imagination when it comes to playing the piano. I just simply cannot locate any notes that even sound like what I'm looking for. I went to musipedia and tried filling in the little squares with my mouse but all it plays is the first note, then none of the rest. I tried the piano key board but it just doesn't go high enough, nor does there appear to be the range to even duplicate the rythem. The ringing notes I outlined, I try to play but it doesn't sound right at all. AGH! I'll keep trying......

Well, that's probably debatable but it sure is driving me bat****. Any musicians in the house? So here's my problem........

The chart of ringing notes I put up in my original post? Well it's no wonder you guys can't nail it. I went to musipedia to their flash piano, and when I hit one note, then try to drop the next note by hitting two keys down, it's too little a jump, three keys down is too much! I need to get a microphone and plug it into my puter, straight up!.

I looked it up, but no dice. Someone did toss this one up there..... and if it began with a bell instead of a stringed instrument and several octaves (notes) higher, it'd be as close as I've ever seen to date in my search.
