Red face Getting annoyed I need the name to buy the tune!

Being driven nuts trying to remember the name of old tunes buzzing my head that I would like to buy mp3's for.

First one has a chorus I think that goes a bit like this

Sing magindy hop magindy dance magindy
(? I remember the tune more then the words)

The other one is worse I just remember an impossible nonsensical word

Hum un away nitin why oo
(? See what I mean)

If anyone can help PLEASE but I realise I may be asking miracles.
Thank you.

You should upload a recording of you singing/humming it.
It's next to impossible to guess it through the given clues.

The way I hear it in my head would not be how it sounded if I tried reproduce it as I can't hum in tune.

But extra information it would be loosely regarded as reggae. I can remember hearing the second one once from a float at the battle of flowers carnival in jersey. The first has a faster beat then the second they were in the uk charts maybe 80's or 90's. The second is possibly a love song.

I agree finding the titles is next to impossible I have tried every search I can no luck.

Why would you buy them? Haven't you ever heard of internet piracy?

Ahh aye aye captain I ave. BUT even if I was going to be a pirate I still need the name or me bottle of rum becomes useless.

Anyway just to listen to them again, I still need the titles. I have tried iTunes genius �� But alas no luck. I do actually buy my music because then it hopefully encourages someone to make more and then I remain a happy listener, cause I can't make anything melodious.

you should try to record yourself humming, otherwise we go nowhere.

We don't. You're asking the impossible here, and that takes six to eight weeks. Try humming, whistling, playing it on the spoons, anything. Otherwise you're on a hiding to nothing. We're not magicians here.

Edit: You could maybe also try the reggae subforum. Just an idea.
