Maybe We Can Try Again Songs

About

The Near Mysterious Vocal On The Cyberspace is a nickname given to a vocal that probable was recorded from a German radio station during the 1980s. Neither the song'south title or the recording creative person are known, and once the song began to spread on social media, many internet users began working together in an endeavour to uncover the song's information. As of July 27th, 2020, the information is still unknown.

Origin

On March 18th, 2007, spiritofradio.ca user bluuue uploaded an excerpt of the song on spiritofradio.ca saying that it was recorded from a high german radio station in the '80s.

On the same day, the extract of the song was posted on best-of-80s.de past the user bluuue (who signed every bit "Anton" at the end of his post)^[1] where he added that they recorded the song probably from a german language radio station named NDR2 in 1982-1984. In an another thread they wrote that they used to heed to NDR1/NDR2 radio station when in that location was a show "Music for Young People" (Musik für junge Leute). This led to speculations that they recorded the song from this evidence.

Spread

On Apr 17th 2011, a YouTube user redoalfo uploaded the same excerpt on YouTube. The video is named "Unkonow Song – Cancion Desconocida – Track Id." There, it gained only 7,100 views in eight years (shown beneath).

2019-2020

In 2019, the search for the song was reinvigorated by YouTuber Gabriel Vieira. On April 7th 2019, Gabriel uploaded the excerpt of the song on his YouTube channel. He also wrote data about the vocal in the description.

bq. A friend of mine (Nico from Dead Wax Records) was looking for this song a while ago, and I became interested also. Unfortunately I do not have the full song, I do non know the nationality of the band and I practice non know if they are singing in English language, although information technology seems that the song is sung in English, I'm not certain if the band is British, American, Russian, High german, French, etc…
What makes information technology difficult to place this song is that the softwares & websites that accept the function of identifying songs (for example: Shazam), does non recognize this song, that is, this means that the band is an independent band that maybe recorded this song on a cassette tape and never released it, or if information technology was released, it was by an independent label.
Listening to the song, we can detect that the band is formed by: Singer, Drummer, Guitar player ane, Guitar Histrion 2, Bass role player and a keyboard actor, but that's something that we can't ostend 100%. Probably the championship of this vocal is "Like The Current of air", but that's another thing we tin can non ostend it, because the origin of this song is unknown, I practise not know where it came from, but for it to exist here online, surely someone put it on the internet!
The most acceptable hypothesis is that this song was broadcasted by some radio station, and someone recorded information technology in the 1980s. Patently this song is mono, it ways that perchance this song was captured from a radio station or some Television receiver in the '80s. I discovered that when I removed the central aqueduct of this, and the track was completely empty. This happens only with mono recordings. Although we have no concrete proof that this is true, it is most likely. That is, we take two possibilities: Someone recorded this from some radio broadcast, or this song may take been taken from some demo tape recorded by the band, which is perhaps a local band that never got famous, or never released anything officially. In that location is some other possibility, I posted almost it in several communities on Reddit, and several people told me that they would have heard this song earlier in some horror pic, probably some B-Movie, but I have no idea if this is true, simply we would have to add it to our investigation. I downloaded the sound from the 2011 video posted by redoalfo, and I realized that the audio waves are practically at low volume, this suggests that this may actually take come up from some tv set or some radio broadcast. Considering if information technology was taken from some demotape, surely the audio would exist very loud.

I already used the avant-garde search method in Discogs (the largest database of rare/contained music on the internet), searching for the title "Like The Wind", but unfortunately I did non find anything about this vocal, that is, it means that peradventure the title of the song is not "Like The Wind", as some people commented in this video, there is a possibility the singer is talking "Fly Abroad", "Found a Manner", there are several possibilities, but we will not know which one will be right. There is also the possibility of the singer really speaking "Like The Wind", merely the truthful title may exist something totally out of context with the lyrics of the song. At that place is also another possibility: The title may be "Similar The Wind", simply I have not establish annihilation on discogs considering this song is so rare that it was not even released past anyone independently. I really do not know which way to go, I really want to discover this song, merely there are many possibilities to be examined, which makes the search much more harder.
Please share this video in groups of Darkwave, Obscure 80s, any group that can assistance to identify this. Thank you!

On Apr 20th 2019, Gabriel created his Reddit account named gabgaskins. And then he began posting on several subreddits, request if someone can identify the vocal.

On the aforementioned day, user newacountz wrote a comment on r/TheMysteriousSong^[2] in which he said that a man named Paul Baskerville could be the person who played the vocal on the show Musik für junge Leute. Gabriel and then contacted Paul via Facebook.

On the aforementioned day, Whang! uploaded a video named "The Near Mysterious Song on the Internet UPDATE" on YouTube where he talks almost new data about the song.

After Paul Baskerville, several people were contacted (for example Guido Wampers, the vocalizer of a band Portrait Bizzare), only no one recognized the vocal. On August 20th 2019, the song was played on a german radio station Radio Eins, Paul Baskerville was as well interviewed there, simply no new data were gained by this. On the same day, Gabriel (u/gabgaskins) posted a post titled "UPDATE AUGUST 20th, 2019" on r/TheMysteriousSong, saying that he was contacted past a woman who claims to be the person who was searching for the vocal in 2007 and posted the first record of it on the Internet^[9]. She explained that her blood brother did the radio recording in the 80s and she sent him a photo of a list of songs her brother allegedly recorded (shown below).

A daughter called me on Messenger today with this bulletin: Hi Gabriel, I establish out about y'all looking for the source of the "most mysterious song on the internet".
Well, I cannot tell you who the singer of the song is, only I can tell you that my brother did the radio recording in the early 80s and I am the person, who put this question into several places on the internet.
Someone postet that the kickoff person asking for help in revealing the song was somebody named Anton Riedel. So, even if that sounds crazy, that's really me, I used that as a nickname for a couple of years for several reasons.
Let me know if you have further questions 📷
best wishes from northern Germany,
Lydia

Many people were sceptical about it and wanted a proof from the sender of the message that they are the user bluuue/Anton who posted the recording on the Net. On the following solar day, user bluuely wrote a comment nether Gabriel's postal service maxim that she is the sender and that she can prove her identity by responding to a private message from her contour (bluuue) on the website best-of-80s.de.

On August 23rd 2019, user bluuely wrote a post on r/TheMysteriousSong titled "Update from Lydia"^[x]. The post contained further clarification of some facts.

Howdy again to all!
Seeing the reactions on my first posting is somehow irritating and shocking. I never expected to cause so much excitement! And it seems that not everybody is convinced that I am who I am, so I decided to give some more than input into this.
Merely get-go of all: there are no news yet well-nigh the band. My brother is still checking some leads, but none of them seem to be very promising. We volition give more information nigh that before long.
In my last mail service I mentioned the idea of exchanging PNs on best-of-80s.de but was suggested to make an official post on the board so everybody volition be able to run across it. Very practiced thought, I liked information technology, but wasn't able to do that yet. The board wouldn't let me create new topics, not fifty-fifty respond to existing ones. Peradventure that'due south because of my long time of inactivity, I don't know. I contacted the admins, but as long as they don't alter my status, only PNs are possible.

To keep it brusk, I will give some answers to questions from several subreddits here:
- the old email address doesn't exist anymore. It's because macnews changed their price politics and started demanding money for their service. It'south ok to do that, but I decided to switch to gmail then.
- no, I didn't transition from Anton to Lydia if that means an gender transformation or something like that. Nothing like that happened.
- no, Anton doesn't fifty-fifty exist. In that location are only me and my brother. He is the ane who did the recording, he owns the original record which however exists, and he also did the digitalization. I was the person who uploaded the song and appeared under the pseudonym Anton for some fourth dimension.
- the full tape won't assist you at all because it wasn't recorded at once. Information technology consists of single tracks which take been recorded over a couple of days or maybe fifty-fifty weeks. And to make things more, MUCH MORE complicated, my brother told me today that he sometimes made changes to his tapes using a second tape deck, and perchance record 4 was one of them, what would mean that the sequence of songs could have been totally dissimilar in the start.
- but: yes, I do have the song in a better quality and as stereo. I haven't decided nevertheless if I am going to upload information technology or non, but will do that shortly.
- no, my account on all-time-of-80s.de has not been hijacked. Feel free to inquire the admins if someone required an email address reset.

Someone said, it makes no sense to ask me for the names of my cats when all the answers tin can exist institute on the cyberspace. I agree fully to that. But I can offer something different to finally let this issue about my identity come up to an end: when checking my email plan Thunderbird I constitute out that I still own all of the old letters from the newsgroups. So I add an screenshot to this mail. Of course this could be created with photoshop, but to exist honest – who would do that and WHY should someone practice that?

I would be happy if y'all could stop the hunt for Anton/Lydia/bluuue because in that location really is no need for that. Possibly you expected the truth to exist more than exciting, but we still have no clue well-nigh the band, the ring'south nationality, the verbal year of the release or even the lyrics. These are the things I would like to focus on. My brother and I will get through the old postings hither and see if nosotros tin pick up some helpful information.

Please go along on spreading the discussion, because I am absolutely convinced that one twenty-four hours it will reach somebody who volition be able to disclose this mystery.
Good night to everyone in Europe and a adept day for the rest.
cheerz, Lydia

Few hours after that, Lydia wrote a comment under her post saying that her blood brother sent an email to Gabriel.

He then gave the users of the subreddit and discord server a listing of the songs,^[20] after checking all of them, information technology was confirmed that none of them was the Most Mysterious Vocal.

Lyrics

The lyrics can't exist heard clearly in the recording what has acquired many interpretations of them. On July 13th, Redditor Patrick_85 posted his interpretation of lyrics on r/TheMysteriousSong^[5]:

Like the air current
You came hither running
Take the upshot of leaving
There'due south no infinite
There's no tomorrow
There'southward no sent communication
Check it in, check information technology out
The sun volition never polish
They're a long way away
In the subways of your mind
Like the air current
You're gonna suffer
Let united states of america drown in your own failure
At that place's no identify
And in that location'southward no sorrow
In the young and restless dreamer
Check information technology in, check information technology out
The dominicus volition never smoothen
They're a long way abroad
In the subways of your mind
Bank check it in, cheque it out
The lord's day volition never shine
They're a long way abroad
In the subways of your mind
Bank check it in, check it out
It's the summer dejection
Tear it in, tear it out
Is it actually yous?

Several Redditors started posting their interpretations on TheMysteriousSong Discord server, where a channel #lyrics was created. The sixth line, interpreted as "At that place'south no sent communication" by Patrick_85 is 1 of the virtually discussed lines. Users can agree that the first one-half of it is "There's no", just tin't hold on the second half. Some users are interpreting it equally "There's no rubber communication", others like "In that location'south no sense for new division" explaining that the song is probably talking nigh Cold War and the "segmentation" refers to the sectionalisation of Germany or whole Europe. Some users are claiming that he's singing "unification" what could too refer to Berlin Wall and divided Germany in that time. The 3rd line, interpreted as "Take the consequence of leaving" by Patrick_85 is sometimes interpreted as "Take the consequence of living" or "Take the consequence forever." 1 of the lines which are beingness repeated after the instrumental part, interpreted as "Is it really you?" by Patrick_85, is also very discussed. Some of the Reddit, Discord and YouTube users are interpreting it every bit "Information technology's reading yous", other as "If they're reading you", " 'cause I'1000 leaving you" or "What's the real excuse?". Other lines from the song take various estimation too. Some users suggested that the lyrics may not be in English, but in another language like German language or Danish.

The nearly popular theory is that the song is nearly Cold War, communism in Due east Germany or Berlin Wall. The lyrics are considered to be sad in every interpreted grade. Other theories are that the singer is singing about a pause up, a daughter he can't go and other similar personal things.

The Name of the Band

Many bands that sound similar to the one playing in the recording were found, but none of them was confirmed to be the author of the song. On Baronial third 2019, user Gene_Rottenberry wrote a post on r/TheMysteriousSong where he claimed that he sent the recording to his uncle who said information technology is a german band called "Subigkeiten Jungs."^[half-dozen] Users started to maxim that the first word is probably "süßigkeiten", but no ring with a name Süßigkeiten Jungs, Süßigkeitenjungs or a similar proper noun was found. User Gene_Rottenberry likewise wrote that his uncle was sure that he has a re-create of the record and that he "remembers that the album cover has a painting of a girl on it" and he will endeavour to find the tape. Many users believed that Gene_Rottenberry was trolling since there was no show of the band's existence, merely on August 5th, he edited his post and wrote an update saying his uncle found the tape. He likewise attached two pictures of the album (shown beneath). On August 7th 2019, Reddit users discovered that the second motion picture was photoshoped what caused moderators removing the post.
