Name this song, please!

I'm trying to get my hands on a song from, oh, the last three to ten years? They just fly by.

You know it. We all know it. It has an indigenous guy quelling. It has a ¿white guy? singing, or vocalizing, or otherwise chanting himself... probably... I just can't get hold of it! There was a ruckus when someone heard "oh hey, that's great- ( Read more... )

That was close enough for me to come up with the tune... though not a title. However, a Google search for "song indian ay yay yai ya hai ya yai" led to a question on Yahoo Answers which led to the answer: it is "Return to Innocence" by Enigma (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk_sAHh9s08). Thanks for your help!

I've now listened to it. Catchy. But I would have been unable to attempt a transcription of what you render as "ay yay yai ya hai ya yai."

I would've thought that if the doctors found an earworm in there, they'd just take it out.

(I realize I may not be the first person in your life to think of this joke. If this is the case, I apologize.)

So, did it remove the earworm?

Not quite. It removed it for a while - half a hour? And then it came back. Much, much quieter. I am greatly relieved. The doc says it shouldd resolve. A week? Two? But resolve.

It's not exaxtly the earworm, but more than close enough, to provide some relief. I mean, the earworm is toned down enough to let the tinnitus come to the fore!

Maddening not to be able to elucidate the meme to David. It was - here. Right here. And it had this shape and that color but like that helps him!. Then he finally came around with Name of Innocence and yes thank you jesus THAT one.
