Earlier this year, a youtuber’s community was able to find a Sonic the Hedgehog statue that was hidden away alongside a highway high up in a Japanese mountain. I’m not sure if the internet can solve this one tho.
Just imagine, you show this song to your grandpa and he says: "oh yes, the good old days. When me and the boys recorded this banger back in my garage. From where do you have that? I thought i threw that into the trash."
I am the one from whom Gabriel Vieira got the song, then he started looking for it and made it far more viral. So glad that Paul got a bit more involved in helping us. Hopefully this will be solved someday.
Wow. That's incredible if that's really true. I would reccomend looking in the comments section of his newest upload. I got a piece of evidence that I presented to him but he never seemed to notice it yet
Hey thanks for you comment. Where exacly should I look for this evidence you mention? I can't seem to find anything. Oh and here's my original video of a couple years back when we only had the short portion of the song: ruclips.net/video/6wkusPiqUn4/видео.html I got bored of asking collectors worldwide and uploade it to youtube, but it never caught much attention then.
@@deadwaxrecordslabel I left the comment on the upload on his channel titled "Jawoll- Rendezvous (Ich Hab' Ditch Seit Langem Nicht Gesehen) [Digitally Remastered 2019]" I have no idea if anything I put in that comment is really true or not, because it's just something I saw from somewhere else. But I never want to underestimate the possibility, if you still are in contact with Gabriel in any way, please do whatever you can to at least make him aware of the comment.
I'm in permanent contact with Gabriel, he just told me that he forgot to reply to you regarding this. Unfortunately the Heribert Loosen lead is probably a dead end, he hasn't even replied to the people commenting on this at his facebook posts...
NDR should do more than play it once. Insert it into the regular song rotation for several weeks. Each time, right after the song ends, have the host provide a way for listeners to contact them if they know who the artist of the song is. If NDR solves the mystery by simply broadcasting the song to the same people, geographically, who would have been listening in 1984, odds are someone will hear it and know a friend who was in a band who might have some ideas about who is behind the song, and lead to its discovery. It would only be good press for NDR and reinforce the idea that people should still be listening to radio in 2024. Sucks they won’t do it. They have the broadcasting capabilities to probably solve this in a matter of days. Put real commitment into solving this. It would become a big news story if they follow through and pull it off.
I found this song 2 days ago and instantly fell in love, but one thing I've noticed is that it always seemed just a little too slow, like how a cassette tape degrades and slows down over time. I think if someone where to speed it up by just 3 or 5% then it would sound a little more natural. It wouldn't give us any new info on who the band is but it would be pretty cool to try restore the 30+ year old mystery song.

I know it's an old picture of Paul, but I can't bring myself to look into his eyes. It's a disturbing stare into my soul. Like he's looking straight through me and uncovered all my secrets, even the naughty ones, and saying "I KNOW where you live! I KNOW what you're doing and I KNOW what you're (not) wearing!"
He does look rather pissed off doesn’t he? 😂 They probably snapped that photo right after he read like the 1,000th email from some rando bugging him asking “what’s that song called???”
The lip smack at the end of the recording and the lip smack he does after the song is done playing is very similar. I wonder if Paul played this song but just doesn't remember.
Well im from Serbia, former Yugoslav country, and i wouldnt say that this is music that yugoslav people made... We had, and still have (on youtube) alot of ex-yu rock that is like more pop rock than darkwave/new wave/post punk... Yes there are many bands that are still active, and there were many bands that played that type of music but i think that i would know, or some of my parents... If this is Yugoslav, this is huuuge under under under underground band band
@@SonnyBlue21410 oh man, there was a *HUGE* post-punk underground scene in Belgrade in the 80s. Atfer Tito died, there was a huge vacuum in the cultural ministry of the SKJ, so they just let the western influence in, and with that all post-punk from abroad came into the ears of Yugoslav listeners, many got inspired and started making their own vibes. Notable persons/bands would be Max Vincent, Paraf, Demolition Group, (early) Elektricni Orgazam, La Card, and many other lesser known artists at the time! RTS still airs "Hit Meseca" from time to time, so if you want one of those funky 80s New Wave and Post-Punk Belgrade tunes, you just need to tune in!
This song was recorded from a German radio station called NDR between 1982 and 1984. Search (online) has been active since the early 2000s, when the song was made available online, and to this day no one has been able to give any accurate and correct information about the origin of the song. Facts like the band's nationality and exact year of recording are unknown, and to this day, we have not gotten any information about the whereabouts of the authors, or even the correct title of the song. Apparently there is no alternative online register/archive of this song, since the only source we have of this song is from the cassette tape that Darius recorded from the radio. Recently, a Reddit user found that in the chorus of this song, a synth called Yamaha DX7 was used, there's a preset called Syn-Lead 5, and it's exactly the same sound they used in the song, the Yamaha DX7 was released in 1983, so we may have a basis that the song was probably recorded in 1984, or late 1983.

There was a guy who had the song on tape, however it was higher quality and was instead called: The Sun Will Never Shine. The true creator still has not been found yet.
This could possibly be a clue. Taken from Reddit. An very interresting thing. Me and some others made a swedish version of the song. In 1986 i become a member in a local synth/pop band named "The Wild Werewolves". The group had recently changed name from "The Sugar Sweeties". Anyway i played synth which was a big thing at the time. We mostly did own songs but also some covers. In 1988 two members left the band and two new came into the group. The one i will focus on had the name Martin Koch. The first name is normal but the second was a bit odd. He also started playing synth at the start so it was me and he who stood together. Martin never told much about himself but i found it he had lived in east Germany since 1979 and pretty much until 1987 or 1988. In early may 1989 Martin wanted to make 3 songs that had a story line through all three songs. The others in th group said he could do that and the first song he did was "Ride the wind" but in Swedish and with the title "Som en vind" which translates to "Like a wind". The version he made sounded like the Pitched corrected one but was much longer and started with a howling wind before the song came on. The lyrics in the song are not the same as the uploaded version here. The song is about a man who is searching for a girl that he met and later she dissapears. There`s a forest called "The black forest" where people get in but no one gets out and the man thinks the girl had vanished there. So he´s searching everywhere for her but cant find any trace at all. In the second track he made the man gets into the woods because he´s hiding from a dangerous rain and he see lots of zombies in the wood but the girl is not among them. In the third track the man dies from an attack from the zombies and meet his girl in heaven. We recorded the three songs on a tape as always and we were happy with the results. I thought the forest could be about the Berlin wall and Martin didn`t say it was that but hinted also it could be. The group split around 1992 and some tapes were saved but not all. I didn`t think very much about the band until i saw on RUclips about this mysterious song. I listened to the song and remembered that we did a swedish version of the song. Unfortunately Martin died around 2005 or 2006 and i have searched about if he had been in some bands in Germany before he came to Sweden but have found nothing that indicates that. None of us that was in the group knows if Martin himself had written these songs or if they were covers. If he had written them its very strange that only "Ride the wind" has surfaced. The tapes are unfortunately in very bad shape so they sound horrible and i haven`t found the exact tape with these three melodies. I will continue search and will post if we find the actual tape and rip it to mp3 file. I wanted to tell about it even if it may not help to solve the mystery. Maybe someone out there know more about Martin Koch than i did.

@@aka99 uhm, you know you just dont go into a studio and magically a song appears right? the real band should have masters, solo recordings of the instruments, the acapella singing and so on. there are numerous ways to really prove it
@@lp.shakur My guess was the band recored it themselfes. Or if the band went to a studio for recordong, they had those, but maybe they were never succesfull. Known internationally and in later years, the band quitted, everybody went on alone and never came together. Everything was maybe trashed?
I do personally believe it’s “NUM212 : The Sun Will Never Shine”. I have a gut feeling they’re the true creators. But until they reach out to someone with more evidence / detail / clarification, very few people will believe them.
at that segment Paul Baskerville plays rare and sometimes unknown songs from rare and/or unknown artist... what if... Paul Baskerville himself is a member of that band or even more crazy, he made it playing the instruments and did the vocals
STOP I SAW THE THUMBNAIL OF THIS VIDEO AND WAS LIKE "THAT'S KINDA CREEPY" AND CLICKED ON IT BUT DIDN'T EXPECT THE THUMBNAIL WAS THE SAME THING SO I LITERALLY FUCKING SCREAMED
I read somewhere (I think on the official wikipedia page of the song) that there was a 10kHz tone (something like that) detected in the recording that was only used by that radio station at the time in West Germany, essentially ruling out the possibility it was on another one
www.paul-baskerville.de/playlists/ this is the official Paul Baskerville site with all the playlists from all of his shows. I didn't find the song there but i'm sure there is some clue there.
Theory: Mystery Song Originated In East Germany 1. The song was written and performed by an underground band in East Germany. The lyrics of the song have the "feel" of someone living in a totalitarian society dreaming about escaping to freedom. The song has allusions to the Berlin Wall, underground tunnels and subversion against a totalitarian regime. 2. Someone smuggled a recording of the song into West Germany and somehow it made it's way to a German radio station where it got played. 3. The band who made the song were arrested by the East German secret police and disappeared. They were either executed or sent to a Siberian gulag for making "illegal" Western music which was banned in the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc countries. Any other copies of the song were considered treasonous propaganda and destroyed.
Forgive me my bad English , and forgive me my harsh words, but point 3 is completely idiotic. The GDR was a autocratic country but most of the time it wasn't like North Korea. Indeed, during the time 1945 to 1955 the GDR was a totalitarian country and many political enemy's was sentenced to death or very long into prison. But after this the GDR gets much more liberal. Dont understand me wrong , the GDR was a very autocratic country , and many political enemies between 1955 and 1989 lose their study place, get spied, or sometimes even in prison. But banned in the SU or get killed was after 1955 extremely uncommon and never done for " producing music" . Some artists which directly criticize the GDR must leave the country or get professional bans but no one was killed , special in the eighty's. During the eighty's western music was often played in the GDR radio . Sometimes even system critical music much harder then this song was played. For example " Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen" from Nina Hagen , "Am Fenster" from city or "Als ich fortging" from Karussell . In the eighty's in the GDR many Band which was inspired by "western music" and subcultures like Punk was founded. They often played concerts. The most famous Band founded during this time was "Feeling B" later becomes very popular under the name "Rammstein". This subculture was spied by the Stasi (GDR intelligence) , but no one gets killed. I didnt wanna defend a autocratic system, but the GDR in the eighty's was extremly far away from North Korea or the GDR in the time from 1945 - 1955 .
Maybe not killed on the gulag, but silenced. My thoughts too though. Paranoid... subways of your mind... it sounds Eastern European. "Good old days..."
The Rammstein members are from East Germany...Till Lindemann has a deep voice that matches your description - someone watched by Stasi dreaming of being free
1. The song is LIKE THE WIND (English version) or WIE DER WIND (German version). 2. It was a collaborative effort between Christian Brandl (from Chuzpe) and Ronnie Urini (from Underground Corpses), two rock bands from Vienna. 3. The English version we all know by now was originally an inter-mixing recording (it means it was kind a demo studio tape). It was made in 1984. 4. It went to Hamburg radio as a preview of the Austrian rock scene or something similar. 5. The singer is Christian Brandl 6. So, Lydia H can finally fill in that blank space on that beloved tape of his brother: LIKE THE WIND with Christian Brandl.
Sure, just send this info to Billy Knight from Statues In Motion to see what he thinks about that :-) The Urini thing is known, but very very unlikely. He has refused to come up with evidence and he is famous for being…let‘s say…creative with the truth. He has claimed so many collaborations and song authorships that were proven to be pure imagination. So nobody believes him. Besides the musical style is totally different to anything he ever did and even the voice of Christian Brandl doesn‘t really fit that well.
@@demnos2879 ruclips.net/video/RoUwyNESIGw/видео.html Christian Brandl singing Why Urini would fake a german version of the song, with different verses, if his intention was to make a forgery? What Billy Knight brought concretely to this discussion until today?
@@JoseSilva-oi5qu Yeah, that Love will tear us apart cover shows exactly what I mean: that Christian Brandl voice was somewhat similar but obviously still quite differerent to the singer of the mystery song. Regarding Urini‘s intentions: well, same as Billy Knight. Billy wants to promote his new band Astrodot. And Ronnie his new „final“ double album with songs he claims are based on „lost lyrics“ of his older projects. He also states publicly that he is a co-author of „Born To Be Wild“. In reality, he just wrote another verse for his cover version. That is the kind of guy he is…
@@demnos2879 Really? Is that voice quite different? Is everybody convinced about it? So, the recording is in English, and it came from German radio....now, a band/singer making rock music in the 80s, singing in English.......these guys can be from Macau, Sri Lanka, Angola........but the guy wants to make a hoax. For it, he produces a lyric sheet in German (why not English?), which does not match the English lyrics. Also, he says it was a cooperation with a dead guy, unable to corroborate the story for his benefit or not. Why the trouble? Why not say it was his work, and the guy just sang it? Why drag Brandl to the story, and not another singer, with a voice completely different, since this happened 40 ears ago? He could just say it was a long time ago, etc. etc. It's 2020, and he meticulously produces a leaflet corresponding to the period (both before and after 83-84), goes after a typewritter (very common nowadays). and, after 20 years or more, shows he still can type with just a minimal error. The paper doesn't seem to have passed through a typewritter for a long time. Ok, he is famous for his false claims. So, why he had the audacity to register it? Did he went to legal spheres on all the other cases? Once we find the real author, this will bring him legal troubles. Usually, people who likes to tell stories stays just on this basic level, no?
@@JoseSilva-oi5qu Look, you can believe him or not, it really doesn‘t matter to me, but I don‘t think it is fair that you post „The song was written by Brandl & Urini“ as if it was an established fact. It isn’t. The only fact is that Urini claims ownership.
I know im kinda stating the obvious here, but i think if we had at least some rest of the broadcast where the song was recorded from, we might be able to identify it easier. Even if the title wasn't mentioned in the broadcast, at least some kind of date or similar stuff would help a lot.
The full 40 minute recording of the radio broadcast is public drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/11b3OhyzTj_3PRXBOR_oRxKkeM-M7IoUf The song starts at around the 36:06 mark

Sounds like Tiamat went back in time. The music is catchy the lyrics tend to repeat. its deffo a well produced song for back then and i think it was a commercial track, deffo recorded on tape as all versions have no popping sounds that are usually present in vinyl. synthpop gothic type of sound but no german bands ive been checking out have this type of "sound" Could it be the song is newer? it's said between 82-84 but it could be maybe were looking for something that was more 84-86? This song is too well made to be underground or on the spot recorded as the mixing is done very well
I've had a song stuck in my head for years, and I don't even have a recording of it. Around December of 2015 or 2016, there was a new album of the band August Burns Red playing on a Christian radio station called Power FM. All the covers of songs I heard in the album are now on Google Play, with the exception of one. I have the tune memorized, but I lack the experience in instruments needed to fully recreate what I remember of the song. What I remember: It had sort of a creepy but also heartwarming feel, like Carol of the Bells. Bells were a prominent instrument. Drums were a prominent instrument. I don't remember any lyrics or any other instruments being used. DEFINITELY a Christmas song.
@@dofenold I only started _really_ song-searching recently, [because of Like the Wind] and have thought about going through all of August Burns Red's songs. However, I haven't done that because it would take waaaay too long. I didn't even think of trying to contact the band themselves, but pretty low chance I'll get a response since being a somewhat popular band, they probably get asks and stuff all the time. I wonder if anyone has asked about the mysterious Christmas song, I can't be the only one who didn't recognize it.
It could be something you misremembered in your brain. I've experienced that. I had a tune from a video game stuck in my head. I was certain that it played whenever you'd fly around the game area. Then it turned out (when I played the game years later) that nothing (other than the regular area music) played while flying. It was a track I somehow came up with, even hummed out loud for 10+ years, only for it to have never existed.

Ich denke mal es ist eine Underground Gruppe aus der DDR oder der Sowjetunion und das dann vielleicht ein paar Platten oder Kassetten Tonbänder in die BRD zum NDR geschmuckelt wurden
Möglich aber wohl extrem unwahrscheinlich. Russische Bands die auf englisch sangen gab es 1984 wohl praktisch gar nicht. Problematischer ist allerdings der Synth, der ziemlich eindeutig als DX7 identifiziert wurde und der 1983/84 gerade neu erschienen ist. Vollkommen unvorstellbar wie der es in die DDR geschafft haben sollte und dann noch in die Hände einer Underground Band…
@@demnos2879 There is a good chance some European band must have made this as an experiment. Could be some non English speaking band may have recorded this track and sent it to the radio station. Could also be an underground band. If that's the case, we will never know the name of the band. Maybe the song was only released on radio for a few weeks. The song sounds very generic for it to be a top band. The vocals definitely dont sound like someone who lived in US, UK etc. There are very less chances to find it if the band was a teen band type thing. I dont think anyone heard this song. Must have been only released on radio for a few weeks. I doubt a cassette, CD or LP has been released.
@@demnos2879 underground vielleicht nicht, aber auszuschließen wäre es nicht... kommt darauf an wo die band möglicherweise aus der DDR kommt (falls überhaupt)
My personal best guess is that they may have been Yugoslavian, but I don’t know for sure. This might be their only commercial recording in English. This song is claimed by “Luka” of the band “Num212” under the title “The Sun Will Never Shine”. Unfortunately quite a few people have piled-on on the comments section claiming he’s yet another hoaxer and bogus (partially because he claims the recording was made in 1982), but I believe him. A little bit of research and I found that “Luka” is relatively common name or rather nickname in Croatia and Serbia. Also, the “212” in the band name “NUM212” might refer to the famous avant- garde theatre “Atelier 212” in Belgrade, where several famous Serbian and Croatian musicians acted at times before their music careers started out. To me, this can’t be a coincidence, unless of course the “212” refers to something entirely different, for example a common New York City area code. This all is just a theory based on the sparse clues in that upload, and me having faith that the uploaded is the actual creator of that song. They wrote ina comment (writing in German) that they unfortunately no longer had their own master recording of the song since they had sent THAT in for broadcast to the station. So IF the station that broadcast this WAS NDR2 (maybe it was someone else?) then I hope they keep looking since they may turn up in fact the original master to this song!

Soo idk correct me if im wrong cuz i think i may be, but idk.
The song is most likely a hoax. The song may have been recorded in 2005 or 2006. The composers may have leaked it online to see the reception. They went on different forums and started asking help. As time passed some noticed but nothing happened. In 2019 a lot of effort was put in making this song viral. The song despite being good sounds like a generic 80s song. The music instruments are crisp but the vocals sound wierd. The vocals aren't easy to understand. That could have been done purposely by the group who made the song. I think one of the composers knew about the German radio stations as he was a guy who heard radio and most likely recorded songs. One of the composers may have had a huge cassette collection of recorded songs. The group came up with an idea to make the song viral. Maybe its 2 min of fame. Even the bluueey profile is handled by them. The fact that even the NDR people have no clue about the song means the song never played on radio otherwise someone would have atleast recognized the tune. I dont know if the band has any other motives.
@@demnos2879 It is a hoax for sure. The vocals seem purposely low. The music instruments are quite clear. The owner must have mixed a few songs on a software and added his voice. That's the most plausible theory. Why he did it is wierd and confusing. Maybe 2 mins of fame. The guy had a huge cassette collection and knows how to use softwares it's easily possible.
Only this year a sound engineer found a strange artfact in the recording, a frequency drop around 10kHz present in most (but not all) songs on the tape. Other fan recordings from the eighties were analyzed and only those recorded from NDR and very few other stations had this drop. After a long research some experts in a radio tech forum stated that this was due to some signal processors used at a few radio stations in Germany in the 80s that were removed in the 90s. Not more than a handful of people knew about this. So it is inconceivable that somebody added this frequency drop to a private demo. The only reasonable explanation is that the frequency drop is there because the song was broadcast and recorded off-air from NDR (or one of the other few stations) in the 80s.
Also the fact that the vocals seem "purpusely low" (which they are) prove nothing. It was very much en vogue to sing like that in the 80s. Ian Curtis himself did that!
@@demnos2879 If you had that song on a cassette in the 80s I would believe you. Because you had a recorded or original tape back then. Otherwise just based on theories its difficult to believe this. I have heard tape rips from the 70s and 80s and in many cases the drums and music wasnt so crisp. Even some early CDs of 70s and 80s bands had a typical stereo feel with a raw sound. This song has a clear music. The drum beats are so clear that cant be unless it was a CD. Only the vocals dont sound clear, that's too surprising for a song that was very clear. In case if there was some problem the entire song should have been a little low or wierd. But over here only the vocals sound low and wierd. I'm not discounting that the song cant be real. But I'm 90 percent sure it's fake.
I mean, there have been nostalgic revivals from time to time. Usually they’re triggered when a large enough number of people are dissatisfied with culture, technology , music etc of their own time and want to instead have the imagined (or real) romance of some past time or some aspect of it. So in music in the 1950s USA when the Cold War was in the early stages and people were still recovering from WW2, there was a huge nostalgia revival for music from the ragtime and early jazz eras, this time packaged as “gay 90s” and “roaring 20s” music. This revival had enough momentum to actually carry it into the early 1980s (various other cultural things like the movie “the Sting” helped). This wasn’t some damn government experiment but it arose organically from enough people pining for the “good old days” for all the right and wrong reasons. One thing is that cultural revolutions usually have some kind of backlash or bends, so although it was still plenty mainstream to be “modern” and up to date in the 1950s, by the 70s a lot of people had gotten so spooked by the culture wars that this triggered a full-blown nostalgia revival which actually then influenced pop culture of the day and even pop music (for example the song “Tie a Yellow Ribbon”). Further, even those people who were not culturally or politically conservative and did not necessarily want to go backwards in many ways, could still be coaxed into looking back or getting nostalgic briefly in 1976, when the USA celebrated our Bicentennial. It does seem that various fashion, architecture, furniture and music styles come back into fashion after a certain period. For example I remember when people laughed at 1970s fashions and said “that will never come back”... until it did in the late 90s / early 2000s (the TV show “That 70s Show” is but one manefestation of this; also the revival and lionization of some neglected underground bands such as Big Star). And then soon after we had an 80s revival, and synth pop was big again (although revised with a 2010s sensibility and technology) etc. Now it looks like the 90s are coming back. So I think this is kind of a human nature thing. In architecture, the craftsman or mission style was sadly dissed and laughed at for a while before it roared back around 2000 (along with accompanying fonts and visual style) and many new housing projects and commercial buildings put up around that time reflect the trend of the craftsman style revival. Now the US seems to be on a 1950s mid-century-modern trend for houses. Frankly I can’t keep up with trends anymore, even revivals and I think it’s more like all eras are happening (or being revived) at once now.
Can we atleast apperciate that he tried to help us?
Yes he's a nice man for that. Danke

Paul Bakersville is a pretty cool dude to do this for a bunch of internet strangers.
That's if he did or not.
Earlier this year, a youtuber’s community was able to find a Sonic the Hedgehog statue that was hidden away alongside a highway high up in a Japanese mountain. I’m not sure if the internet can solve this one tho.
Can you tell me more about this case?
Give it some time.
Yeah they solved the mistery
@Gabriel Valdez_Valencia So what you're saying is that the man's soul lives on inside the statue?
@Gabriel Valdez_Valencia yeah i saw it on badnik mechanic channel
Just imagine, you show this song to your grandpa and he says: "oh yes, the good old days. When me and the boys recorded this banger back in my garage. From where do you have that? I thought i threw that into the trash."
This is not a garage song. Probably not mastered, but it sounds professional.
I am the one from whom Gabriel Vieira got the song, then he started looking for it and made it far more viral. So glad that Paul got a bit more involved in helping us. Hopefully this will be solved someday.
Wow. That's incredible if that's really true. I would reccomend looking in the comments section of his newest upload. I got a piece of evidence that I presented to him but he never seemed to notice it yet
Hey thanks for you comment. Where exacly should I look for this evidence you mention? I can't seem to find anything. Oh and here's my original video of a couple years back when we only had the short portion of the song: ruclips.net/video/6wkusPiqUn4/видео.html I got bored of asking collectors worldwide and uploade it to youtube, but it never caught much attention then.

But I never want to underestimate the possibility, if you still are in contact with Gabriel in any way, please do whatever you can to at least make him aware of the comment.
I'm in permanent contact with Gabriel, he just told me that he forgot to reply to you regarding this. Unfortunately the Heribert Loosen lead is probably a dead end, he hasn't even replied to the people commenting on this at his facebook posts...

NDR should do more than play it once. Insert it into the regular song rotation for several weeks. Each time, right after the song ends, have the host provide a way for listeners to contact them if they know who the artist of the song is. If NDR solves the mystery by simply broadcasting the song to the same people, geographically, who would have been listening in 1984, odds are someone will hear it and know a friend who was in a band who might have some ideas about who is behind the song, and lead to its discovery. It would only be good press for NDR and reinforce the idea that people should still be listening to radio in 2024. Sucks they won’t do it. They have the broadcasting capabilities to probably solve this in a matter of days. Put real commitment into solving this. It would become a big news story if they follow through and pull it off.
Him trying to help everyone on this even if time is catching up on him makes him a living legend.
How does Paul sound so German and English at the same time lol

I found this song 2 days ago and instantly fell in love, but one thing I've noticed is that it always seemed just a little too slow, like how a cassette tape degrades and slows down over time. I think if someone where to speed it up by just 3 or 5% then it would sound a little more natural. It wouldn't give us any new info on who the band is but it would be pretty cool to try restore the 30+ year old mystery song.
Nick - if you look around on youtube you will find that someone already did this. The speed-corrected version sounds indeed better...
@@demnos2879 I just had a look around and found it. Sounds a little too fast but definitely more natural

I love his English-accented German.
I know it's an old picture of Paul, but I can't bring myself to look into his eyes. It's a disturbing stare into my soul. Like he's looking straight through me and uncovered all my secrets, even the naughty ones, and saying "I KNOW where you live! I KNOW what you're doing and I KNOW what you're (not) wearing!"
ikr wtf
my soul damn near escaped my body when i clicked on this youtube link and saw this horrific zoomed in photo of this man's face.
He does look rather pissed off doesn’t he? 😂 They probably snapped that photo right after he read like the 1,000th email from some rando bugging him asking “what’s that song called???”
He's german is so clear. I love it.
He's still got pretty thick british accent though lol
Actually Mancunian!
the image scares me more than the song
jesus christ that thumbnail is offputting
😂
The lip smack at the end of the recording and the lip smack he does after the song is done playing is very similar. I wonder if Paul played this song but just doesn't remember.
i mean why would he remember? its only one oft the 10000s of songs he played
If he has the same habit of smacking his lips after every song that he had in 1984-1986 I would be pretty surprised
ok but why is he staring into my soul
Exactly what I was thinking
This sounds like a mixture of Yugoslav-Russian and English in one
@Domace Super Yugoslav type music, and there was a language like that but it was more of a mixture, but language isnt what im pointing out here.
@@pirocanac9906 Oh yeah, man my first thought was of Yugoslavians as soon I heard the voice!
Well im from Serbia, former Yugoslav country, and i wouldnt say that this is music that yugoslav people made... We had, and still have (on youtube) alot of ex-yu rock that is like more pop rock than darkwave/new wave/post punk... Yes there are many bands that are still active, and there were many bands that played that type of music but i think that i would know, or some of my parents... If this is Yugoslav, this is huuuge under under under underground band band
Ne postoji Jugoslavija više.
@@SonnyBlue21410 oh man, there was a *HUGE* post-punk underground scene in Belgrade in the 80s.
Atfer Tito died, there was a huge vacuum in the cultural ministry of the SKJ, so they just let the western influence in, and with that all post-punk from abroad came into the ears of Yugoslav listeners, many got inspired and started making their own vibes. Notable persons/bands would be Max Vincent, Paraf, Demolition Group, (early) Elektricni Orgazam, La Card, and many other lesser known artists at the time! RTS still airs "Hit Meseca" from time to time, so if you want one of those funky 80s New Wave and Post-Punk Belgrade tunes, you just need to tune in!

@Henry Uruguay the mysterious song
Why is the comment section focused on making fun of his accent?
This song was recorded from a German radio station called NDR between 1982 and 1984. Search (online) has been active since the early 2000s, when the song was made available online, and to this day no one has been able to give any accurate and correct information about the origin of the song. Facts like the band's nationality and exact year of recording are unknown, and to this day, we have not gotten any information about the whereabouts of the authors, or even the correct title of the song. Apparently there is no alternative online register/archive of this song, since the only source we have of this song is from the cassette tape that Darius recorded from the radio. Recently, a Reddit user found that in the chorus of this song, a synth called Yamaha DX7 was used, there's a preset called Syn-Lead 5, and it's exactly the same sound they used in the song, the Yamaha DX7 was released in 1983, so we may have a basis that the song was probably recorded in 1984, or late 1983.

That's relative, depends on which scale you're using.
This could possibly be a clue. Taken from Reddit. An very interresting thing. Me and some others made a swedish version of the song.
In 1986 i become a member in a local synth/pop band named "The Wild Werewolves". The group had recently changed name from "The Sugar Sweeties". Anyway i played synth which was a big thing at the time. We mostly did own songs but also some covers.
In 1988 two members left the band and two new came into the group. The one i will focus on had the name Martin Koch. The first name is normal but the second was a bit odd. He also started playing synth at the start so it was me and he who stood together. Martin never told much about himself but i found it he had lived in east Germany since 1979 and pretty much until 1987 or 1988.
In early may 1989 Martin wanted to make 3 songs that had a story line through all three songs. The others in th group said he could do that and the first song he did was "Ride the wind" but in Swedish and with the title "Som en vind" which translates to "Like a wind". The version he made sounded like the Pitched corrected one but was much longer and started with a howling wind before the song came on.
The lyrics in the song are not the same as the uploaded version here. The song is about a man who is searching for a girl that he met and later she dissapears. There`s a forest called "The black forest" where people get in but no one gets out and the man thinks the girl had vanished there. So he´s searching everywhere for her but cant find any trace at all.
In the second track he made the man gets into the woods because he´s hiding from a dangerous rain and he see lots of zombies in the wood but the girl is not among them.
In the third track the man dies from an attack from the zombies and meet his girl in heaven.
We recorded the three songs on a tape as always and we were happy with the results. I thought the forest could be about the Berlin wall and Martin didn`t say it was that but hinted also it could be.
The group split around 1992 and some tapes were saved but not all. I didn`t think very much about the band until i saw on RUclips about this mysterious song. I listened to the song and remembered that we did a swedish version of the song.
Unfortunately Martin died around 2005 or 2006 and i have searched about if he had been in some bands in Germany before he came to Sweden but have found nothing that indicates that. None of us that was in the group knows if Martin himself had written these songs or if they were covers. If he had written them its very strange that only "Ride the wind" has surfaced.
The tapes are unfortunately in very bad shape so they sound horrible and i haven`t found the exact tape with these three melodies. I will continue search and will post if we find the actual tape and rip it to mp3 file.
I wanted to tell about it even if it may not help to solve the mystery. Maybe someone out there know more about Martin Koch than i did.
Thank you :)

I do personally believe it’s “NUM212 : The Sun Will Never Shine”. I have a gut feeling they’re the true creators. But until they reach out to someone with more evidence / detail / clarification, very few people will believe them.

Are we 100% sure, that the guy recorded this song from this radio? Maybe Darius made a mistake about the source...
I read somewhere (I think on the official wikipedia page of the song) that there was a 10kHz tone (something like that) detected in the recording that was only used by that radio station at the time in West Germany, essentially ruling out the possibility it was on another one
They are 100% sure of the source, yes.

Theory: Mystery Song Originated In East Germany
1. The song was written and performed by an underground band in East Germany. The lyrics of the song have the "feel" of someone living in a totalitarian society dreaming about escaping to freedom. The song has allusions to the Berlin Wall, underground tunnels and subversion against a totalitarian regime.
2. Someone smuggled a recording of the song into West Germany and somehow it made it's way to a German radio station where it got played.
3. The band who made the song were arrested by the East German secret police and disappeared. They were either executed or sent to a Siberian gulag for making "illegal" Western music which was banned in the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc countries. Any other copies of the song were considered treasonous propaganda and destroyed.
Forgive me my bad English , and forgive me my harsh words, but point 3 is completely idiotic.
The GDR was a autocratic country but most of the time it wasn't like North Korea. Indeed, during the time 1945 to 1955 the GDR was a totalitarian country and many political enemy's was sentenced to death or very long into prison.
But after this the GDR gets much more liberal. Dont understand me wrong , the GDR was a very autocratic country , and many political enemies between 1955 and 1989 lose their study place, get spied, or sometimes even in prison.
But banned in the SU or get killed was after 1955 extremely uncommon and never done for " producing music" . Some artists which directly criticize the GDR must leave the country or get professional bans but no one was killed , special in the eighty's.
During the eighty's western music was often played in the GDR radio . Sometimes even system critical music much harder then this song was played. For example " Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen" from Nina Hagen , "Am Fenster" from city or "Als ich fortging" from Karussell .
In the eighty's in the GDR many Band which was inspired by "western music" and subcultures like Punk was founded. They often played concerts. The most famous Band founded during this time was "Feeling B" later becomes very popular under the name "Rammstein".
This subculture was spied by the Stasi (GDR intelligence) , but no one gets killed.
I didnt wanna defend a autocratic system, but the GDR in the eighty's was extremly far away from North Korea or the GDR in the time from 1945 - 1955 .
I've Been Though The Same.
Maybe not killed on the gulag, but silenced. My thoughts too though. Paranoid... subways of your mind... it sounds Eastern European. "Good old days..."
The Rammstein members are from East Germany...Till Lindemann has a deep voice that matches your description - someone watched by Stasi dreaming of being free
anyways. everyone knows that is still a little bit more mysterious than this
That one has more chances of being found, even if we don't have it complete

This one is a bit more mysterious since we have the whole song without any information
1. The song is LIKE THE WIND (English version) or WIE DER WIND (German version).
2. It was a collaborative effort between Christian Brandl (from Chuzpe) and Ronnie Urini (from Underground Corpses), two rock bands from Vienna.
3. The English version we all know by now was originally an inter-mixing recording (it means it was kind a demo studio tape). It was made in 1984.
4. It went to Hamburg radio as a preview of the Austrian rock scene or something similar.
5. The singer is Christian Brandl
6. So, Lydia H can finally fill in that blank space on that beloved tape of his brother: LIKE THE WIND with Christian Brandl.
Sure, just send this info to Billy Knight from Statues In Motion to see what he thinks about that :-) The Urini thing is known, but very very unlikely. He has refused to come up with evidence and he is famous for being…let‘s say…creative with the truth. He has claimed so many collaborations and song authorships that were proven to be pure imagination. So nobody believes him. Besides the musical style is totally different to anything he ever did and even the voice of Christian Brandl doesn‘t really fit that well.
@@demnos2879 ruclips.net/video/RoUwyNESIGw/видео.html
Christian Brandl singing
Why Urini would fake a german version of the song, with different verses, if his intention was to make a forgery?
What Billy Knight brought concretely to this discussion until today?
@@JoseSilva-oi5qu Yeah, that Love will tear us apart cover shows exactly what I mean: that Christian Brandl voice was somewhat similar but obviously still quite differerent to the singer of the mystery song. Regarding Urini‘s intentions: well, same as Billy Knight. Billy wants to promote his new band Astrodot. And Ronnie his new „final“ double album with songs he claims are based on „lost lyrics“ of his older projects. He also states publicly that he is a co-author of „Born To Be Wild“. In reality, he just wrote another verse for his cover version. That is the kind of guy he is…
@@demnos2879 Really? Is that voice quite different? Is everybody convinced about it?
So, the recording is in English, and it came from German radio....now, a band/singer making rock music in the 80s, singing in English.......these guys can be from Macau, Sri Lanka, Angola........but the guy wants to make a hoax. For it, he produces a lyric sheet in German (why not English?), which does not match the English lyrics.
Also, he says it was a cooperation with a dead guy, unable to corroborate the story for his benefit or not. Why the trouble? Why not say it was his work, and the guy just sang it? Why drag Brandl to the story, and not another singer, with a voice completely different, since this happened 40 ears ago? He could just say it was a long time ago, etc. etc.
It's 2020, and he meticulously produces a leaflet corresponding to the period (both before and after 83-84), goes after a typewritter (very common nowadays). and, after 20 years or more, shows he still can type with just a minimal error. The paper doesn't seem to have passed through a typewritter for a long time.
Ok, he is famous for his false claims. So, why he had the audacity to register it? Did he went to legal spheres on all the other cases? Once we find the real author, this will bring him legal troubles. Usually, people who likes to tell stories stays just on this basic level, no?
@@JoseSilva-oi5qu Look, you can believe him or not, it really doesn‘t matter to me, but I don‘t think it is fair that you post „The song was written by Brandl & Urini“ as if it was an established fact. It isn’t. The only fact is that Urini claims ownership.
1 year later and Paul was ruled out entirely.
The drummer hits a high tom instead of a snare on accident after the guitar solo?
The town musicians of bremen did it
I know im kinda stating the obvious here, but i think if we had at least some rest of the broadcast where the song was recorded from, we might be able to identify it easier. Even if the title wasn't mentioned in the broadcast, at least some kind of date or similar stuff would help a lot.
The full 40 minute recording of the radio broadcast is public drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/11b3OhyzTj_3PRXBOR_oRxKkeM-M7IoUf The song starts at around the 36:06 mark
@@Jessay the content of basf4 is NOT the radio broadcast tmms was in; it is a collection of songs all taken from radio but recorded in different time, from 1982 to 1984 more or less. darius made some compilations like that, hence the numeration 4. but again, it is not a single consecutive radio broadcast.
@@_xndrzt Since this Song most likely was made in 1984 I'm going to guess that Whoever made it are probably sadly Dead nowadays but I could be Wrong

The music style does reminds me of some german stuff
Sounds like Tiamat went back in time.
The music is catchy the lyrics tend to repeat. its deffo a well produced song for back then and i think it was a commercial track, deffo recorded on tape as all versions have no popping sounds that are usually present in vinyl.
synthpop gothic type of sound but no german bands ive been checking out have this type of "sound"
Could it be the song is newer? it's said between 82-84 but it could be maybe were looking for something that was more 84-86?
This song is too well made to be underground or on the spot recorded as the mixing is done very well
I've had a song stuck in my head for years, and I don't even have a recording of it. Around December of 2015 or 2016, there was a new album of the band August Burns Red playing on a Christian radio station called Power FM. All the covers of songs I heard in the album are now on Google Play, with the exception of one. I have the tune memorized, but I lack the experience in instruments needed to fully recreate what I remember of the song.
What I remember:
It had sort of a creepy but also heartwarming feel, like Carol of the Bells.
Bells were a prominent instrument.
Drums were a prominent instrument.
I don't remember any lyrics or any other instruments being used.
DEFINITELY a Christmas song.
bro ABR let's gooo dude. I like those guys so much! So... Why won't you ask them? Idk they has to have some links to contact with them
@@dofenold I only started _really_ song-searching recently, [because of Like the Wind] and have thought about going through all of August Burns Red's songs. However, I haven't done that because it would take waaaay too long.
I didn't even think of trying to contact the band themselves, but pretty low chance I'll get a response since being a somewhat popular band, they probably get asks and stuff all the time.
I wonder if anyone has asked about the mysterious Christmas song, I can't be the only one who didn't recognize it.
It could be something you misremembered in your brain. I've experienced that. I had a tune from a video game stuck in my head. I was certain that it played whenever you'd fly around the game area.
Then it turned out (when I played the game years later) that nothing (other than the regular area music) played while flying. It was a track I somehow came up with, even hummed out loud for 10+ years, only for it to have never existed.

Ich denke mal es ist eine Underground Gruppe aus der DDR oder der Sowjetunion und das dann vielleicht ein paar Platten oder Kassetten Tonbänder in die BRD zum NDR geschmuckelt wurden
Möglich aber wohl extrem unwahrscheinlich. Russische Bands die auf englisch sangen gab es 1984 wohl praktisch gar nicht. Problematischer ist allerdings der Synth, der ziemlich eindeutig als DX7 identifiziert wurde und der 1983/84 gerade neu erschienen ist. Vollkommen unvorstellbar wie der es in die DDR geschafft haben sollte und dann noch in die Hände einer Underground Band…
@@demnos2879 There is a good chance some European band must have made this as an experiment. Could be some non English speaking band may have recorded this track and sent it to the radio station. Could also be an underground band.
If that's the case, we will never know the name of the band. Maybe the song was only released on radio for a few weeks.
The song sounds very generic for it to be a top band. The vocals definitely dont sound like someone who lived in US, UK etc.
There are very less chances to find it if the band was a teen band type thing.
I dont think anyone heard this song. Must have been only released on radio for a few weeks. I doubt a cassette, CD or LP has been released.
@@demnos2879 underground vielleicht nicht, aber auszuschließen wäre es nicht... kommt darauf an wo die band möglicherweise aus der DDR kommt (falls überhaupt)
My personal best guess is that they may have been Yugoslavian, but I don’t know for sure. This might be their only commercial recording in English. This song is claimed by “Luka” of the band “Num212” under the title “The Sun Will Never Shine”. Unfortunately quite a few people have piled-on on the comments section claiming he’s yet another hoaxer and bogus (partially because he claims the recording was made in 1982), but I believe him. A little bit of research and I found that “Luka” is relatively common name or rather nickname in Croatia and Serbia. Also, the “212” in the band name “NUM212” might refer to the famous avant- garde theatre “Atelier 212” in Belgrade, where several famous Serbian and Croatian musicians acted at times before their music careers started out. To me, this can’t be a coincidence, unless of course the “212” refers to something entirely different, for example a common New York City area code. This all is just a theory based on the sparse clues in that upload, and me having faith that the uploaded is the actual creator of that song. They wrote ina comment (writing in German) that they unfortunately no longer had their own master recording of the song since they had sent THAT in for broadcast to the station. So IF the station that broadcast this WAS NDR2 (maybe it was someone else?) then I hope they keep looking since they may turn up in fact the original master to this song!
interesting@@andrewbarrett1537
why is there copyright of something in this video despite not having any relations with the song being played tho
because of the short audio clips from the tracks before and after
Don't you think and hear that on first song at the end you can hear the same instrument which plays in the MMSOTM. ..
You mean: an electic guitar? Yes. What a coincidence, since there are only very few songs played on electric guitar.
here's my own Lyrics who match perfectly with the song :
BLIND THE WIND

There's no spaces,
there's no tommorow,
there's no sence of communication,
Check it in check it out, when the sun goes down your side

they are the perfect lyrics who match exactly, you are correct!!
your lyrics seem like very nice lyrics. would love to meet them one day
first two are closer to:
Like the wind
You came running
^these words make more sense then whatever you have
Maybe the lyrics aren't even in English, if the song was recorded in Deutschland, then maybe it's in German.
Doesn’t sound German tho. These lyrics are 100% in english
This isn't German. Nothing in it sounds remotely like any German words.
It’s English, just with an heavy German accent, it sounds like they are pronouncing the th straight with an s
It's litteraly english.
a lot of german music is in english
I bet Kidd Video would know. Isn’t there some AI bot that can figure this out?? I mean, I’ve got severe major depression disorder due to brain chemical level issues and I’ve seen a few doctor but the only thing that helps me is an AI app that answers any question you ask it. I ask anything related to what triggers my depression and it answers in ways that actually helps, unlike my human doctor attempts. No joke. There has to be an audio AI where you can play the song and it can search whatever. If AI can keep me off our high bridge I’m sure it can find this song. Take care guys. Oh, and I had a song like this for like 25 years, it ended up being the song Bring Me Edelweiss! :)
Shazam is basically what we have at the moment. It will only give you a fake result of someone listing the song under their name.
I'm not sure there is an app to specifically search for artists based on what the song sounds like however
Could there be a chance that this song was written for a movie?
i do think it might be the case.

I kinda had a stroke at the start of the comment
Wait a minute, if paul played this song in the "Music For Young People" show for the first time around 1982 and 1984 how did he get the song? of course for someone to play a song somewhere they have to know the name, and if he was the first or second person that found the song (maybe) he must'ved had the disc/tape or something, and where/who he got it from. Soo idk correct me if im wrong
cuz i think i may be, but idk.
That is obvious but what is your point? Paul says he doesn‘t remember. And now what?
@@demnos2879 welp maybe he lyin' you never know, or maybe is true idk.
@@happguddoggo5782 why would he lie?

@@JumpingCookie95 then the others too-
The song is most likely a hoax. The song may have been recorded in 2005 or 2006. The composers may have leaked it online to see the reception. They went on different forums and started asking help. As time passed some noticed but nothing happened. In 2019 a lot of effort was put in making this song viral.
The song despite being good sounds like a generic 80s song. The music instruments are crisp but the vocals sound wierd. The vocals aren't easy to understand. That could have been done purposely by the group who made the song.
I think one of the composers knew about the German radio stations as he was a guy who heard radio and most likely recorded songs. One of the composers may have had a huge cassette collection of recorded songs. The group came up with an idea to make the song viral. Maybe its 2 min of fame.
Even the bluueey profile is handled by them. The fact that even the NDR people have no clue about the song means the song never played on radio otherwise someone would have atleast recognized the tune.
I dont know if the band has any other motives.
@@demnos2879 It is a hoax for sure. The vocals seem purposely low. The music instruments are quite clear. The owner must have mixed a few songs on a software and added his voice. That's the most plausible theory.
Why he did it is wierd and confusing. Maybe 2 mins of fame. The guy had a huge cassette collection and knows how to use softwares it's easily possible.
And how did he know that a 10Khz line would have to be added? In 2004?
Only this year a sound engineer found a strange artfact in the recording, a frequency drop around 10kHz present in most (but not all) songs on the tape. Other fan recordings from the eighties were analyzed and only those recorded from NDR and very few other stations had this drop. After a long research some experts in a radio tech forum stated that this was due to some signal processors used at a few radio stations in Germany in the 80s that were removed in the 90s. Not more than a handful of people knew about this. So it is inconceivable that somebody added this frequency drop to a private demo. The only reasonable explanation is that the frequency drop is there because the song was broadcast and recorded off-air from NDR (or one of the other few stations) in the 80s.
Also the fact that the vocals seem "purpusely low" (which they are) prove nothing. It was very much en vogue to sing like that in the 80s. Ian Curtis himself did that!
@@demnos2879 If you had that song on a cassette in the 80s I would believe you. Because you had a recorded or original tape back then. Otherwise just based on theories its difficult to believe this.
I have heard tape rips from the 70s and 80s and in many cases the drums and music wasnt so crisp. Even some early CDs of 70s and 80s bands had a typical stereo feel with a raw sound.
This song has a clear music. The drum beats are so clear that cant be unless it was a CD. Only the vocals dont sound clear, that's too surprising for a song that was very clear.
In case if there was some problem the entire song should have been a little low or wierd. But over here only the vocals sound low and wierd.
I'm not discounting that the song cant be real. But I'm 90 percent sure it's fake.

@@SoulFlask archaic revival? Ok edgelord
@@SoulFlask
Down with the contemporary world. Time to hearken back to the days of holy terror.
I mean, there have been nostalgic revivals from time to time. Usually they’re triggered when a large enough number of people are dissatisfied with culture, technology , music etc of their own time and want to instead have the imagined (or real) romance of some past time or some aspect of it. So in music in the 1950s USA when the Cold War was in the early stages and people were still recovering from WW2, there was a huge nostalgia revival for music from the ragtime and early jazz eras, this time packaged as “gay 90s” and “roaring 20s” music. This revival had enough momentum to actually carry it into the early 1980s (various other cultural things like the movie “the Sting” helped). This wasn’t some damn government experiment but it arose organically from enough people pining for the “good old days” for all the right and wrong reasons. One thing is that cultural revolutions usually have some kind of backlash or bends, so although it was still plenty mainstream to be “modern” and up to date in the 1950s, by the 70s a lot of people had gotten so spooked by the culture wars that this triggered a full-blown nostalgia revival which actually then influenced pop culture of the day and even pop music (for example the song “Tie a Yellow Ribbon”). Further, even those people who were not culturally or politically conservative and did not necessarily want to go backwards in many ways, could still be coaxed into looking back or getting nostalgic briefly in 1976, when the USA celebrated our Bicentennial. It does seem that various fashion, architecture, furniture and music styles come back into fashion after a certain period. For example I remember when people laughed at 1970s fashions and said “that will never come back”... until it did in the late 90s / early 2000s (the TV show “That 70s Show” is but one manefestation of this; also the revival and lionization of some neglected underground bands such as Big Star). And then soon after we had an 80s revival, and synth pop was big again (although revised with a 2010s sensibility and technology) etc. Now it looks like the 90s are coming back. So I think this is kind of a human nature thing. In architecture, the craftsman or mission style was sadly dissed and laughed at for a while before it roared back around 2000 (along with accompanying fonts and visual style) and many new housing projects and commercial buildings put up around that time reflect the trend of the craftsman style revival. Now the US seems to be on a 1950s mid-century-modern trend for houses. Frankly I can’t keep up with trends anymore, even revivals and I think it’s more like all eras are happening (or being revived) at once now.
