afaik right now we have - "subways of your mind", - its live performance version, - "heart in danger", - "talking hands", - "jenny", - and a 32 second long clip from a currently unidentified song uploaded by scott la pointe to youtube
It's crazy how they performed this live in front of hundreds of people, sold cassettes containing this song, won contests and yet people still couldn't tell who made it.
The only explanation for this is that the group was local, performing within the region where the participants lived. Well, as already noted, all the concert visitors are now well over 60, apparently few of them followed this topic on the Internet.
It’s definitley that this was local to a specific part of germany, 40 years ago, with a band that didn’t get any major in store releases. A majority of the search team was also mainly english, so there’s not only a country border but a language border as well. Trying to find 60-somethings to ask “do you recognise this song” is hard, when many 60-somethings aren’t active online outside of their own family groups.
Back in the 90s, my friends had a band that played in local pubs. I'll bet no one from the audience remembers who they were 30+ years later. There would be thousands of local bands that are gone and exist only in the memories and demo tapes of their old members and friends.
A couple of years I read a comment und a MMSOTI video: "Somewhere out there is a band that doesn"t know anything about this search." Funny how spot on it was.
I feel bad for saying it, but looking at these pictures, I felt a little animosity towards the audience. Like "Where were all you people this whole time?!?" It's not their fault. And I'm a hypocrite because I'm sure I've seen songs at music festivals that I've completely forgotten. I was just surprised by the emotion.
@@MrThomasC22 They are all in their 60 and 70s now. Plus they heard this song once by an amateur band at a festival in 1985. Most would not even get internet for another 15 years or more and even when they did, they would not find anything about this band just like we didn't until now.
To be honest, I felt the same way. However, most people go to concerts for a specific performer or band, so they probably weren't all paying attention to FEX.@@MrThomasC22
The bass line is so much hookier and greasier and more ornate on this than the studio tape and it RIPS SO HARD. Seriously this live versions has one of the tastiest rock bass lines I've ever heard.
this is unironically the coolest bit of 2024, we find the band that did the Most Mysterious Song on the Internet and not only do we get the title and a live version of the song itself but we get like 4 additional bangers from the same band, almost equally unknown.
Thanks to everyone who has done a lot of work so that we can listen to this music now🫡👏 Fex- I want to tell you that you are obliged to give the world many more hits, you are an outstanding band, thousands of people admire your work
I am currently 16 years old, and the truth is that I have followed this case since I was 6 and it gives me a feeling of joy that they have found the band, not only for me but for the people who They actively contributed for so many years, the truth is that it makes me happy and listening to this song is like watching the final credits in a beautiful movie, which will go down in history as a mystery solved, but as the greatest musical mystery in history, long live the most mysterious song on the internet and FEX❤
i just realized - this is definitely close to the release of the original studio version. in the "communication" line, the live version is closer to "there's no sent communication" [studio] rather than "what we needs communication" [demo], although theres also subtle differences such as the use of place instead of space in the first verse, and you came here running rather than you're blowing somewhere [studio] or blowing from somewhere [demo]
To me, the communication line sounds more like "there's nonsense communication" than "there's no sent communication", but either interpretation could potentially be correct.
Wow......me pasé AÑOS intentando encontrar a los autores originales, desde el primer momento que la escuché adoré esta canción. Y me da una sensación muy extraña saber que al fin se resolvió el misterio. Me encanta, gracias por todo
Thank you FEX, you deserve all the fame and benefit you can get, you are all legends! All of you people who helped with the search and now FEX fans and FEX themselves... You all deserve what you dream! ❤
It's interesting to hear the lyrics develop over time, as in this live performance "there's no place" is said twice rather than "there's no space" being said once and "there's no place" on the 2nd verse. So cool we're getting multiple versions of Subways. Can't wait to see what else you bring us! Rock on, FEX!
I'm still awestruck. After so many years. In a matter of days, we went from a single off-air copy to multiple official versions released to the public.
Man, it's so nice seeing you guys get the recognition you deserve. Thanks for coming together and sharing more with us. Hopefully you guys continue having fun playing and hanging out again.
This is such a treasure to have all of these released to us. The photos and multiple versions of the song. Thank you guys for giving us these. It is greatly appreciated.
From Canada here! So happy you finally found out about the search. Looking forwards to the Spotify release and any other stuff you guys put out! Thanks a lot for posting these alternate versions for us to enjoy FEX, you guys ROCK! :)
Absolute legends, i love this song it's stuck in my head even before it was found, but after when it was found i loved this song much more than before.
so glad my phone ringtone finally has another name than "eh i don't know, some people call it blind the wind, and some others call it like the wind, but overall it's the most mysterious song on the internet"
this search had the best ending ever
WARRIOR OF BRAZIL POR AQUIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Naw, that would still be EKT just for the lolz 😂🙈❤️🔥
NOSSO HOMEM BASED POR AQUI!
amei o nome
its weird how all the actual recordings and informations are released by the real band after they became known
God it rocks so much that we got multiple versions of the song now. As well as whatever else FEX wants to release from the old days.
"whatever else"
afaik right now we have
- "subways of your mind",
- its live performance version,
- "heart in danger",
- "talking hands",
- "jenny",
- and a 32 second long clip from a currently unidentified song uploaded by scott la pointe to youtube

We need FEX band on Spotify!!!
YEAH FR
For real!! Im bored in spotify premium without this
I support the motion
@@Hftr_232dhs please, I need this on Spotify and listen my favorite, Talking hands
AND APPLE MUSIC!!
someone once said: "when the internet dies this song will be the credit song" BUT WE ARE SO BACK NOW!!!!
still sounds perfect for end credits
The internet archive
happiness has to be fought for
Me gusta mucho más está versión original de 1985 🎵🎼🎼🎼🎼
Yo imagino un vídeo de toda la música de calidad de los 80,s y está Rola de fondo en los créditos con FEX Band. 🎵🎼.
A couple of years I read a comment und a MMSOTI video: "Somewhere out there is a band that doesn"t know anything about this search." Funny how spot on it was.
I mean, that was the same story with Ulterior Motives authors 😂
I said that about "someone's dad", idk if that was what you read :)
@@ashkandi1337I just found your comment under Systemicas video. Could have been the one.
Haha, funny enough someone’s answer under that comment is the reason i found out the song was discovered
This will be my 1st stop in the time machine.
can i go with you?
Same
I'll bring snacks! And a bunch of AV equipment 📹
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it."
And here we are now.
All the people who went to this concert are like 60-70 years old now .wow
You will be there soon too. Time flies!
If you went to Kiel and talked to enough 60-70 year old music fans, you'd probably find some who remember FEX.
@@TonyMontanaDS yeah, you are right!
@@82dorrinlol and i actually speak German and would do that, but Kiel is still 1000 Kilometers away from me
Dead
If FEX ever decides to do merch, I will pay good money for a shirt with the star logo on it!
I will print a T-shirt with a logo on a sublimation printer myself and I will be the only one in Russia)
Yo también pagare muy bien por una playera original de Band FEX saludos desde Cancún Quintana Roo México 🇲🇽.
They said they are working on it.
A merch collab with @JustinWhangYt would be sooo cool
i love this version - i love the demo version - i love the unplugged version - i love the fact, that there are so many versions!!
Radio version still to be found.
@@carloscollomps1552 I also like the radio version, the ending is so smooth and final. I wish I could find it in studio quality.
2024 is the lost media's golden age.

"Some bands spend YEARS trying to find their audience, this audience spent YEARS trying to find their band" - Reddit User
Legendary quote
Nach 40 Jahren ist ein Mysterium geklärt. Ein guter Song
From a show of this size, and it still remained to be as mysterious and lostwave as it was! Amazing. I wonder if anyone remembers being there.
I feel bad for saying it, but looking at these pictures, I felt a little animosity towards the audience. Like "Where were all you people this whole time?!?"
It's not their fault. And I'm a hypocrite because I'm sure I've seen songs at music festivals that I've completely forgotten. I was just surprised by the emotion.

my man was here before it was popular!
"FEX" will definitely become a legendary rock band :D
Not will, have
Band FEX debería hace una gira tour que se llame "Like the wind" 1984 .
Never been so happy to be alive before.
Going from an unknown band to performing a very popular song in a matter of DAYS is amazing. I love you, FEX 💛🖤💛
Mi Reconocimiento y mi admiracion para el guitarrista de esta banda es todo un profesional 🎵🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼 saludos desde Cancún Quintana Roo México 🇲🇽.
It's awesome! WE DID IT
Hello from Russia!
Looking forward to more content with this band! :D

Живоя запись лучше чем касета которую гоняли 40 лет
That grainy stage photo at 1:43 would be such an awesome album cover. So much character!
So good we know finally who created this song

What a journey... I feel nostalgic although I was born in 1992 but somehow feel a connection to that song.
Should cover it...
I'm from 2006 bro, same feel here
Hans-Reimer Sievers is such a good drummer! This rocks!
the way he stares is terrifying
I need FEX on my Spotify 80's playlist !!!
I'm so happy for this band. They've got to be overwhelmed in a good way.
The story of this song is my favourite story from the Rock-n-roll industry as a whole.
Thank you FEX, you deserve all the fame and benefit you can get, you are all legends! All of you people who helped with the search and now FEX fans and FEX themselves... You all deserve what you dream! ❤
God I love this, is so good, keyboards are amazing, very nice vocals, drums, bass, all of it. FEX was and is a good band!
What a time to be alive!
Ive got a favourite band. Its the kind of rock I like.
You'll like Depeche Mode's Speak and Spell album then, it's pretty similar
Also band "METRO DECAY" has an album with some similar songs
It's interesting to hear the lyrics develop over time, as in this live performance "there's no place" is said twice rather than "there's no space" being said once and "there's no place" on the 2nd verse. So cool we're getting multiple versions of Subways. Can't wait to see what else you bring us! Rock on, FEX!
I love the lead synth here, we could only imagine how hard this song slapped there on the concert
I'm still awestruck. After so many years. In a matter of days, we went from a single off-air copy to multiple official versions released to the public.
This "check it in, check it out" line kicks so hard for me. Can listen it on repeat over and over again.
I'd go to a Fex Show.
i would pay good money too!
@@wingsandbladesreal i'd pay double
The most song on the internet!
The chorus is a masterpiece.
Absolute gem.
This reminds me of marty mc fly playing chuck berry on guitar in 1955 coming from 1985.
Welcome to your seat, we have been waiting for you
When the lyrics are going, you can hear what sounds like the crowd going insane. I mean, I would too, this is SWOYM.
It's the summer blues!
TEAR IT IN TEAR IT OUT IT'S THE REAL EXCUSE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

You're the best for publishing these different versions of the songs
I'm so ready for more FEX‼️
Man, it's so nice seeing you guys get the recognition you deserve. Thanks for coming together and sharing more with us. Hopefully you guys continue having fun playing and hanging out again.
DX7, Polysix and MS20! That's one hell of a cool stage rig
I was gonna say, you can get some crazy mileage even today with that setup alone
This is such a treasure to have all of these released to us. The photos and multiple versions of the song. Thank you guys for giving us these. It is greatly appreciated.
This band is the gift that keeps on giving. 🔥
I've listened to this song over a hundred times now, I'm so happy the Band has reunited again! I can't wait to listen more from them!!
You guys are the fn best. Please enjoy all the success that’s coming that you should have gotten decades ago
Esta versión esta hermosa ❤❤❤ Saludos desde México 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Love this song so much I'm glad it's discovered.
“Biggest crowd” so far… 😊
these pictures are realm the thing is tho that they heard houndreds of songs and this one didnt really stand out in any way
From Canada here! So happy you finally found out about the search. Looking forwards to the Spotify release and any other stuff you guys put out! Thanks a lot for posting these alternate versions for us to enjoy FEX, you guys ROCK! :)
We need to make this song number 1 in every charts once the rerecording has been released
que lindo que es cuando todo internet se une para encontrar una cosa como lo que fue esta canción, simplemente una locura
History right here! Looks like a lot of people were there! I wonder if any of them recognised the song?!
Absolute legends, i love this song it's stuck in my head even before it was found, but after when it was found i loved this song much more than before.
Thanks for sharing. Many never thought this would ever happen. You have made a lot of people very happy.
These are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I wasn't born yet, wouldn't be for 10years. Holy...
It feels so good knowing you guys
FEX!!!!❤
I still can’t believe that the performers have been found. This is very cool
This is such a good song. Welcome back Legends!
This up & coming band is going places, I can tell !
if they release a physical record id pay top dollar for it
I wonder what those cassettes sold at the concert are worth nowadays.🤔
previously worthless, now $1,000 at least
