The best part of this entire song is that you can’t get a copyright strike because nobody knows who the fuck made it

"Hey, did we write our band's name and title?" - one of the band member after sending this song to the radio station

Still “The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet” since the other one was found in a porno

Imagine it is a song used in a adult movie too 😭😭

This song is so fire it burned all the evidence to it's creation

Out there, there's possibly a group of middle age German men who probably have families by now, working at some regular job unaware that their mysterious song they sung once is lit af

Ok it's your turn now.

Meanwhile in an alternate universe: ‘Check It In’ and ‘Ulterior Motives’ are 80s classics “When she knows that” was just found to be ‘Uptown Girl’ from an adult film People are still searching for the artist to the mysterious German song possibly called “99 Red Balloons”

The feeling of something so generic and familiar yet completely unique

AT LEAST WE HAVE THE FULL SONG. I would be so pissed if we only had a clip of it.

Considering the high chance that this song was a failed demo for a band that never went anywhere, I really hope we can find whoever originally created it so they can see how popular it is now.

Now that Ulterior Motives has been found, this unarguably is the most mysterious song on the internet.

If the band responsible for this were to reveal themselves tomorrow, they would have the biggest cult following in history.

POV: A hit song from a parallel universe accidentally came to our universe.

This is probably what a half empty bar at 2AM sounds like.

EKT is found, now it is time for this.

I'm starting to think this song kinda embodies the phrase "you are not ready for this yet, but your kids are gonna love it"

This song is gonna be everywhere in the Doom community from now on.

If we found EKT, I believe we’ll find this someday more than ever. We have hope, brothers

“You did write our band name when you sent off that song, right? RIGHT?”

I wonder if there’s some indie filmmakers who have no budget deciding to put this song in one of their films/shortfilms. Literally no one can sue them lol

One thing's for sure: This song was a work of LOVE by whoever made it. This shit HITS. I hope someone can find the OG artist soon.

In an alternate universe, Like the Wind was revealed to be from a movie from 1986 about a similar plot to The Interlopers, featuring two vengeful people trying to murder each other. People have a hard time trying to isolate the shouting and swearing from the film. Ulterior Motives is clean and complete, but no one knows the name.

Despite the lack of clarity due to the tape deterioration, you can tell this band could actually play and really put some effort into this. The drummer and bassist were killing it on the rhythm, and the guitar and synth lines, though simple, were clean and direct. It pretty much sounds like a mid to late 80s song that should have been a hit.

When the local Airport, Daycare, and Gas Station all look and feel exactly like your friend's house.

I know how to solve the mystery. Make the song go mainstream. Play it on the radio every day as if it were a regular song. Eventually someone will come forward.

He probably recorded the song and left the studio never to come back, thinking how memory of the recording will fade away. But now all of us share that memory.

meanwhile in a parallel universe: "and now for the #1 hit song of the year, it's Like The Wind!" "what you just listened to was a snippet of a mysterious song known as "Take On Me." edit: OM GOSH GUYS WOW TANK YOU FOR HTE LIEKS GUYS WOW MOM GET THE CAMERA

*"Happiness Has To Be Fought For"*

It wild, that’s someone’s voice. Someone who lived, who laughed, who cried, who’d loved. We don’t have any idea who it is. He could’ve died in the 80’s leaving the identity of this song behind. And we have no idea.

The band: “yeah let’s drop the hardest song ever and tell nobody about it”

So, this is the final boss of Lost Music.

I got my dad listening to this (he's a musical digger born in 68 (& we're French) who loved the punk/new wave style back then) without telling him anything else than "do you know who this is?"(He's my shazam fr) .. His first reaction was "I dont really like german songs... but this also sounds like Depeche Mode, its probably from 1985". Really blown my mind that he was able to say "german" as his english is worse than mine and that I didn't noticed the "german accent" everyone is talking about on this song and he replied "its not about the accent but the style!" Merci Papa 🥹🤩 Edit 04/2024: EKT doesn't ring a bell for him but I love BOTH songs and please tell me if they're finally found 😭

this song is unironically catchy, and has that feeling of a movie end credit and everything is coming to an grand ending, and it has a pretty nice groove too and not just a bland completely on time song

We got the full ass song, but no one knows who made it😭🙏🙏

I think we should check corn films

"Happiness has to be fought for" - Steve Nelson (Veddge) Who knew that a mysterious song with an unknown artist would make it's way into a reality warping doom mod

this is the Liminal Space of music, so close to familiar yet still foreign enough, its so bizarre and intriguing

after Ulterior Motives, Stop Making Me Cry, La Cancion de Alicia, Kenya Song, and all the other lost songs that have been found /proven fake (r.i.p Digital Girl) i really hope that this will be next.

The saddest part is that this song captures the time period so well, it really just nails it. I can only imagine how good it would have been if the group had been able to record it properly in a good studio with a talented engineer to make it shine. And that guitar, it just takes you somewhere all on its own.

This version really makes the song shine. It shows how professional the musicians are. This is not a half-baked demo tape by some amateurs, like many suggest. Could have been a massive hit in the 80s.

8 billion people on the planet and none know who made this brilliant song, and we might never know.

Even if we end up never ever finding the truth about this song, I'm just glad that the one song that gets to hold the title of the "Most Mysterious" is one that evokes such an overwhelming wave of nostalgia

"Somewhere, in another dream. The version of myself that winked back is sitting on the real beach, happy and content. Knowing that life is finite, there is no afterlife, and happiness is found in the small things we can control. Happiness has to be fought for."

Fun fact. This song is actually from the future. In 2063, there's going to be yet another 1980s revival. That's why the accent sounds weird.

Why do people describe this as creepy and eerie? It’s genuinely a great song

imagine if this song's artist got found in the same way ulterior motives (everyone knows that) was found lmao

I was expecting the most mysterious song to be scary and eerie, but this shit is fire 🔥🔥🔥

Finally Unknown album by Various Artists

If that guy hadnt recorded this,it would be gone with the wind....

It's time to be found, TMMS.

The hilarious thing of it is that this music is mysterious completely by accident. What's most likely is some no-name indie band from the 80s submitted their track to a radio station and forgot about it completely. The band never took off, and its members probably found jobs, probably wives and families. Fast forward 40 years or so, and it becomes an internet meme. It makes me wonder if the guys who made the song remember it, are aware of its internet fame, or are even still alive. (If you were 30 in 1983, you'd be in your 70s now, and a lot of people don't even make it that far.)

WE FIGHTING FOR OUR HAPPINESS WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥

1:42 that string of chords sends a chill down my back. That hits so hard. I really love this song!

LYRICS: Like the wind You came here running Face the consequence of leavin' There's no space There's no tomorrow There's no sent communication Check it in, check it out Or the sun won't ever shine A very long dirty way Hits the subway of your mind Like the wind You're going somewhere Let a smile be your companion There's no place And there's no sorrow Here's the young and restless dreaming Check it in, check it out Or the sun will never shine A very long dirty way Hits the subway of your mind Check it in, check it out Or the sun will never shine A very long dirty way Hits the subway of your mind Check it in, check it out It's the summer blues Tear it in, tear it out It's the real excuse Check it in, check it out It's the summer blues Tear it in, tear it out It's the real excuse Check it in, check it out It's the summer blues Tear it in, tear it out It's the real excuse Check it in, check it out It's the summer blues Tear it in, tear it out It's the real excuse

Fantastic track that sounds so familiar. Has a touch of that "Depeche Mode" sound in it. As a station operator i'd put it in rotation.

If ETK was found Like The Wind can be found

EKT was found, its time to focus on this one.

Someone somewhere out there is listening to this thinking to themselves “Yeah, I created that shit”

The oddest thing is this sounds so fucking familiar yet so foreign! I feel like I've listened to this song before but I don't think I have! It's an odd sense of deja vu, I don't know how else to put it!

what if these "unknown" songs are from a parallel universe that crossed over to this one, and the nostalgia of listening to it is us having listened to it in that parallel universe

I honestly have a feeling the artist/band is unlikely to ever be found. EKT was found within 3 years with just a 17 second snippet of unknown origin and misleading information. We have the full TMS song and know the source of the TMS recording yet we still haven’t been able to find a good lead since the search started back in the mid 2000s. The recording is 40 years old. Realistically there’s a high chance that the artist/band and everyone else involved are now deceased.

You never going to know why i got so much likes

Can these guys just come forward and claim their song already so I can add it to my Spotify playlist

This song is such an enigma to me. Not because of the mystery. It feels all over the place. So joyful, so melancholy. It's lyrics understandable yet incomprehensible. It's like aliens found a series of songs from the 80's and tried their very best to replicate it.

EKT,LCDA,BACK TO BED HAS BEEN FOUND NOW ITS TIME FOR THIS SONG

You made it sound more haunting, it feels like I'm in an abandoned garage and am hearing this echo through the garage like some sort of ghost performance. Other than that it's a good remaster.

The MyHouse mod has given this song a new meaning for me. It used to be a slightly eerie song that no one knows the origins of, but now it’s a song of hope, a song of freedom, a song about a sunrise beach. Now it’s a song that is here to remind us… *that happiness has to be fought for.*

I heard an absolute banger on the radio the other day only to find it belonged to a band with less than 60 monthly listeners on Spotify. A lot of high quality stuff simply goes under the radar, and it’s incredibly unlikely the songs creators will stumble upon this video.

To the people worrying about what happened with EKT (found in an adult film), don't worry, it's been proven that this was recorded of NDR (a German radio station)

This is the most accurate version of a cover as if it was remixed or added with extra parts to the song like on reel to reel tapes

Boy, this song really fits if played in a videogame radio. Like in a car or something. Like in a forest or something. Near a gas station or something.

imagine similar to how EKT was discovered to be from a porn movie, like the wind turns out to be from a nazi or soviet propaganda film 💀

40 years and still lost damn.

The bad thing about not knowing anything about this band is that I want to hear MORE SONGS from them and can't...

This fits MyHouse so well. A seemingly normal and inconspicuous piece of media, only to find out that it's harboring a deep mystery. I also like how the upbeat sound of the music contrasts with the depressing nature of the wad. It's a beacon of uneasy hope in a map of despair. It feels like it was always meant to be, that it's telling you to fight for happiness because happiness has to be fought for.

Because happiness is worth fighting for.

I just imagine this song playing on a radio in a barren wasteland

This song is the best example of a "liminal" song. If liminal spaces had music equivalents, this would be one. It's so familiar, yet it barely exists. No one knows where it came from, yet here it is.

Please, God, make this song find its way to the band and have them declare themselves!!!

There's nothing like hearing this around an empty gas station surrounded by demons to remind you that *Happiness has to be fought for.*

Now that everyone knows that has been found I’m getting kinda worried about this one

My interpretation of the lyrics: [Verse 1] Like the wind, you came here running Take the consequence of living There's no space, there's no tomorrow There's no sense, communication [Chorus] Check it in, check it out 'cause the sun will never shine A long dirty way in the subways of your mind [Verse 2] Like the wind, you're going somewhere Let a smile be your companion There's no place, and there's no sorrow In the young and restless dreamer [Chorus] Check it in, check it out 'cause the sun will never shine A long dirty way in the subways of your mind [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Check it in, check it out 'cause the sun will never shine A long dirty way in the subways of your mind [Outro] Check it in, check it out with the Sun or Moon Tear it in, tear it out is it really you Check it in, check it out with the Sun or Moon Tear it in, tear it outis it really you Check it in, check it out with the Sun or Moon Tear it in, tear it outis it really you Check it in, check it out with the Sun or Moon Tear it in, tear it out is it really you Check it in, check it out

Crazy how one of the best songs I've ever heard is from a completely anonymous band. Genuinely such a banger.

THE NEXT MISSION: FINDING THIS ONE

This song is now truly the most mysterious song on the internet now that EKT was found

“Happiness has to be fought for”

This went from a “oh let’s check out another internet fad today” to a full blown obsession. I LOVE IT. Very fun to play on guitar, too. 🤟🔥

NOT EVEN THE FIREFIGHTERS CAN PUT OUT THIS FIRE

The song seems to be transparently about escapees crossing from east to west Germany during the Cold War. “Like the wind you came running”, “take the consequence of leaving”, “there’s no sent communication”, “check-it-in check-it-out” (a weird lyric until you realise it’s a reference to Checkpoint Charlie). This would have been a number one preoccupation of west Berliners in the mid-80s. Since it’s “you came running” it should be a west European song, and it’s presumably West German since it seems to have been recorded from West German radio. Since it doesn’t seem to have been professionally mixed it’s probably a demo tape that got sent to the DJ which they gave airtime to because - you know - it’s quite good.. Lyrically it’s almost a precursor to Scorpions’ Wind of Change, which was about the fall of the iron curtain a few years later (although the songs don’t sound alike)

1:16 If you listen to this song through a pseudo-surround-sound filter, there's this very sweet-sounding flute melodic line in the mix! I've listened to this tune dozens of times and never heard it before!

This fills me with such a feeling of comforting yet haunting nostalgia, and yet I've never heard this song in my life until today...

Why is this actually fire tho

Yeah, that's mid/late 80's, 100%. The keys sound pretty much like DX7 preset sounds. This reminds me of a mystery of my own band.... when recording our third album, we recorded a new song, which was finished just a day before the takes. But later that song didn't make it on the album. We lost the lyrics, as they were finished 5 mins before vocal take.... Just on a paper forgotten in the studio.... We never played it live. Nobody can remember it anymore. It's kinda running gag when talking today about old times. 😅

To me every time i hear this song it makes me sad because nobody except the band (if there was one) knows who made this masterpiece of a song

Very early 80's. Almost like a song you would hear in a movie soundtrack. Or even on an old episode of Miami Vice.

THIS SONG WONT BE MYSTERIOUS FOR LONG🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

So much lost media is being found this year. Now the original backrooms image has been found. I feel like this year we will find this song.

"Happiness has to be fought for."
