Paul Baskerville plays The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet
Paul Baskerville plays „The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet“ in his show „Nachtclub“ on NDR Info, 21st of July 2019, 0:05am - 2:00am.
Translated transcript:
I have been contacted recently by people from different countries, for example from Brazil and also from America. Because several people are trying to identify a song on TH-cam that was posted by a certain Anton in Bremen. And I'm supposed to have played it between 1982 and 1984 on the show “Musik für junge Leute”. Apparently there are people who think we still have the music lists from 1984 here at NDR. And if we had them, we wouldn't even know where to look. The only thing I can or could try when I have time is to search my albums at home and look for covers that I forgot and that look post punk like. Well, in case of doubt at least I have a job to do when I retire. We'll hear the song right now and if any of you know it, it would be wonderful of course. You would make some people very happy on the net. So here is "The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet".
(plays song)
So, nobody knows who this band is, nor what the song is called, and it's named "The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet" on TH-cam and it would be wonderful if one of you would actually know the song. And the reactions to this quest are quite different. I already asked some people if they knew the song. A certain Uli wrote to me: "Is all of this so important? Does one have to know it? I think it's just a waste of time. I will spend the rest of my short life with more interesting things and people”. And a listener called Babs wrote: "I can't imagine that you ever played such a boring song on your show". And there was a very funny reaction on the net from an American. I think American, yes, he must be American. And I quote him in English: "Now that we know Paul Baskerville is aware of all the commotion, can we all agree to stop being a pain in the ass for him and let him have his holiday? Since I have read his reply it kind of bugs me, like it's July. The dude wanted to have some time, lay on the beach, unwind, get shitfaced in some fancy bar or whatever he is into. And his mail/socials/etc. suddenly blew up with people looking for some song he'd heard maybe once 38 years ago. If it was even the guy who put it on the air back then. Just let the guy chill". I thought that was really funny. And like I said: I would be happy if really someone...I mean it would be enough if only one person out there would know this song - The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet.

There's an even more mysterious song around. Please help, Mr. Baskerville. th-cam.com/video/JbNTp0aw0c0/w-d-xo.html
First song?
First aong
Finally uncovered
I came here to see if anyone had told you the song was found. We did it, gang.
FEX- Subways of Your Mind
Not only a clean cassette (and complete) recording of the song, but also 2 more FEX songs: "Heart In Danger" and "Talking Hands". Also a Live Version of "Subways of Your Mind" and a band mate mentioned they wanted to do a rerecording of the song!
@names_are_useless yep, and the complete record and live version rocka. Best ending.
@@names_are_uselesscheck out the interview
Found now! :)
hi meestertweester
@ hi
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 TH-cam 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.
It was found. It's FEX - Subways of your Mind.
Why is the comment section focused on making fun of his accent?
His voice sounds a lot like Peter Steele from Type O Negative.

That's relative, depends on which scale you're using.
I bought it on iTunes. It sounds great. They gave credit to both Alvin Dean and Statues in Motion.
They didnt make it but still
And they were wrong to: it's "Subways of your Mind" by FEX
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

Solved! "The Most Mysterious Song" is "LIKE THE WIND" from UNDERGROUND CORPSES - 2024/3/16
NO IT'S NOT 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No, it's obviously an early Metallica song. Duh.
How would it be from 2024 if it was featured in a doom mod last year?
@@Crimson-Collective Eh? I just posted the date I found the answer.
You can’t just call it solved because you believe one of the theorized artists that could have made it. That’s just what Ronnie Urini claims and he definitely should not be trusted. People that worked with him and knew him say he shouldn’t be trusted. It’s not solved just because Ronnie says he made it or even that showed a fake lyric sheet. He is not to be trusted.
The Lakaiene hört sich ähnlich an mit der Stimme
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 cant help but hearing this as the alternate song to I (Just) Died in Your Arms Tonight bu Cutting Crew😂

LIKE THE WIND - STATUES IN MOTION (A GREEK BAND OF THE 80s)
fake
No they confirmed that they didn’t make it
@@P-O-L-T-E-R-G-E-I-S-TBilly Knight (one of the band members) confirmed that the voice of the MMS vocalist is incredibly similar to the SIM vocalist Alvin Dean. Alvin also tried to build a solo career in the mid-80s after the band broke up
Long debunked
The whole "the singer sounds like this other singer" is a dead-end lead. If you actually listen to this kind of music (post-punk/new wave/goth rock), this deep baritone vocal style with reverb has been OMNIPRESENT since the 80s. I can name at least 5 bands off the top of my head that have singers that sound like TMS singer, ranging from the 80s to today. That's why so many newbies always jump to Depeche Mode - they hear vocals like that and are like "ohp yup this must be a completely unique sound". What makes the song so hard to find is that it sounds like something everybody's heard before.

He looks derp
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

@@MrBrno we've had no good leads on it ever. y'all have had leads on this song and 17+ years to find it

This one is a bit more mysterious since we have the whole song without any information
imagine being a fan of finding this song. and turning on the radio station and hearing this with no context😭
That’ll be weird
"okay let's turn this on. WAIT HOLY SHIT!!"
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
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

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. ATTENTION: It's not "Like The Wind" by Antwon01, a guy put it on Shazam under his name without our permission and it's NOT a real thing, it's FAKE. Interpreted Lyrics: VERSON #1 Like the wind, You came here runnin', Take the consequence forever. There's no space, There's no tomorrow, There's no sense...? Check it in, turn it all, And the sun will never shine. They're a long way away, In the subways of your mind. Like the wind, You're gonna suffer/somewhere, Let us drown in your own failure. - (Not sure, 99% inaudible verse) There's no place, And there's no sorrow, In the young and restless dreamer.

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???”
How does Paul sound so German and English at the same time lol Absolutely flawless German for someone from England
Well I would hope so; he’s been living there with a radio show for like 40 years.
He's living there since late 70s
Because he learned the language? But like. He learned it well
First heard about this song from the video talking about the Doom Horror Mod, "MyHouse. wad" This playing over the last fight where "Happiness is fought for" makes me feel surprisingly encouraged :D

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!

Alvin Dean is the one who sings the song
Statues in Motion
Please stop stating it as fact, it's not proven yet so just wait until it's confirmed 1000% with very good evidence. Thanks.
@@tekwiztv It's George Dalambiras AKA Alvin Dean, only not with Statues In Motion but with a different group. If you don't like it, tough. It's fact until proven otherwise.
@@sjdrifter72 No, a fact is something that is an item or something of knowledge/information that is true. None of this has yet to be 100% proven with any solid evidence. You can believe that Alvin Dean is the creator of TMS, that's your right to that opinion. However, doesn't make it right or true by any means. At this rate, it's possible that the songs true creator(s) will never be found seeing as how the entire internet has been searching for almost 20 year's and nothing has turned up.
The problem is that we don't really know who Alvin Dean is, there are just a few photos of him, few songs attributed to him and that's it, There is no other information about him or the band, so we can't really tell if he is the one behind the song.
Is he speaking German or English
both actually
you are all so naive,this song was never played on german national radio. the regulations were very strict back than and the presenters of the show were obliged to mention the name of the band andtitle of the song. also for gema reasons (copyright issues),nobody would ever have dared to play a song without knowing the origin of the song. in ndr radio stations history,there wasnt one case were a demo tape was and could be played !!!! until the full radio show from back than isnt uploaded,you can be sure,that this song was never played on this particular or any station,since private radio still didnt excist back than in Germany !!! also,you would rarely listen the full version of a song back than,the presenters would always interupt the song by the end,so the listeners wouldnt duplicate the songs on tapes....
I don‘t know which stations you listened to in the eighties but none of what you said would be true of NDR. They played demos, they didn‘t write them in the track lists if the artist was not under GEMA, they often played songs until the very end (not in the daytime shows but certainly in the speciality shows like MFJl, Nachtclub, No Wave etc). The only thing you are right about is that they probably announced the name of the song and artist, but if they did this before the start of the song then it was easily missed. Also please refrain from being rude in this discussion, thank you! By the way: there is clear evidence that you are wrong with your statement, there are recordings of shows with demos, songs not listed and songs played until the very last note.
For me it's clearly a french song, by the lyrics and the translations about it, the fact that some frenchies get that accent ( since i got the same ) for me it's literally this 1.
