Was downloaded in 2008, had only the filename of Downfall.mp3, with no artist or album attached to the metadata
Created a fairly simple faux album cover using one of the sketches I made a while back, basically wanted some sort of crappy emo cover, and I kinda like it.
UPDATE 2/29/2024: Solved by sveta and erin!

Lyrics:
June arrived with a bitterness so cold
I looked around expecting December
In the distance, the sound of the highway
The last thing I can remember
So you think you wanna go or let me go?
Man, you think you wanna stay, well I know
I’ll step outside, once again I'll be leaving
Be leaving
Believe me
There is a song somewhere inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
You took away all the comfortable silence
And left behind a beautiful future
The phase has never ceased to amaze me
The amazement doesn't even begin to faze me
So my life is just beginning to hit me
I'm already six feet under
Driving just kills me
It just killed me
(It killed me)
There is a song somewhere inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
Who is gonna save me now?
This is a beautiful movie
We play it all night
I'm gonna change when I
Get out
This is a beautiful movie
We play it all night
I'm gonna change when I
Get out
FAIR VERONA
The Downfall of a Well Known Actress
1999
THANK YOUUUZ
im just gonna imagine that this artist really made this their cover in 1999 because it goes insane
The fact that his got solved during the poll vote is crazy
Fr
Usually, any lost song I come across is a snippet of said song, notably everyone knows that/ alterier motives, but I didn’t expect this to be a whole song
We have the full song of like the wind actually
@@janhavinoronha There was somewhat a full song "Fond my Mind" as well, missing only the intro and a little bit of the outro. Later it has been identified as "Feels Like a Wish" by Station K.
Two of my favourite lostwave songs are full songs, they do often pop up and I think are more interesting that lostwave snippets
@@CZghost that one got found? When?
@@Idkpleasejustletmechangeit some months ago lol
fair verona - the downfall (of a well known actress)
good job everyone
Ayo idk if anybody told you this but your sketches are baller as fuck, good drawing yo

I know right?!
even now when the song is found, I still prefer this image over the semi-official one.
@@grayanddevpdx I agree, there's just something about the punkistic kitten that fits too well
Fun fact: this was identified by the same crew who did Funky by Royal Treatment Plan ("Dance for Hours a Day" / "Dancefloor Was His Name") with two months between each find
funny enough they were also behind either the there's a man or hlwit subreddits too lol
This picture goes hard
In a different way 😏
I could see this being a bonus song in one of the early Guitar Hero games. Good stuff.
Hey! I fuck with this song really hard and I had some observations that could be pretty useful-ish maybe? I haven't helped with a lost media search in a while, but I managed to get into a Whang! video a while back for some weird Spy Kids cardboard cutout search, so I feel vaguely accomplished. I may post this on the subreddit too, not sure.
Some things I noted:
-This is almost definitely an inexperienced singer, definitely on the younger side (teens, VERY early 20s). There’s little to no vowel modification (like singing ‘me’ as ‘mEE’ instead of ‘may’), and everything is very nasal and bright, even by pop punk standards.
-Judging by the somewhat mediocre playing and tone of the bass specifically, this seems like a band with somewhat inexperienced musicians, or at least a band with a small number of people (without a proper bassist) that just had the guitarist recording bass. Of course, a lot of these lostwave bands (and indie/small pop punk bands back in the 2000s) were like that, so that may not be of much use.
-The lyric “So my life is just beginning to hit me - I’m already six feet under” also seems to hint at a younger songwriter. Sorry for being redundant about that!
-Lead singer’s voice is giving off California/Valley Girl vibes the whole time, and you can REALLY hear it in “The amazement doesn’t even begin to faze me”. If you have to start looking in certain regions, I would start around California.
-I would NOT be surprised if this band had gotten more successful (or was already decently popular locally). I’ve been songwriting for years, and the songwriting here shows a LOT of potential (the “This is a beautiful movie we play in - and I’m gonna change it when I get out” is a really cool line, actually). It’s also just genuinely catchy.
-Building on that, the production quality of this is actually pretty good. Mixing is not bad at all. I don’t think this is self-recorded. I think they could have paid for studio time or knew someone with a decent studio to record this in. This isn’t a “my friends and I just wanted to jam out” song, this is a “send this to record labels and maybe we’ll get noticed” kinda song.
-I’m worried that the name “Downfall” has nothing to do with the song, honestly. Considering this was downloaded in the mid-2000’s, it may be a mislabeled song downloaded from Limewire or some other P2P website.
-Your art was what drew me to this song in the first place so kudos you!! It slaps.
This isn't all super helpful, but I'll be also looking for it for a while to help out. I'd recommend making a post on the poppunk subreddit or something as well.
They could be inexperienced musicians, but what we hear here is already good
Someone mentioned someone found a band called Downfall with a song called “Save Me Now” which would make sense, but due to data issues (I think that’s what they said) it can’t be played, so our best bet is to get in touch with a band member/listener of the band. So that’s a possible lead.
Edit: Yea, no I have a feeling this is 100% gonna be the answer, just a gut feeling that we’ve solved it
Edit 2: I was wrong 😍 (Fair Verona - The Downfall of a Well-Known Actress)
I really like this analysis. I really hope we find the singer so they can do another remastered version
Now,thats what i call a analysis
song aside, the image used in this video goes unbelievably hard
I mean, I can't really identify it but this is a banger, gonna add this to my playlist
I've been wondering about the significance of the "damn them all 153," since that's a weirdly specific number and not something you'd randomly say either. What I think is most likely is that 153 days is exactly 5 months on the calendar unless February gets involved. For example, June 1 to November 1 is exactly 153 days. Probably not that much of a lead, but it's a line that definitely stands out. The song absolutely gives off "mid-2000s myspace release" vibes, but unfortunately if that's true that significantly complicates the search.
How many other lostwave songs can say they were solved on a leap day?
im so damn happy this song was found, ive been obsessed with it weeks ago and ive been telling all my friends abt it, now when i came back to listen to this song for the 3948398th time again it got found!!!
A prime late 2000s emo-pop banger !
flyleaf moment 😱😱 pretty catchy tho def gonna add to my playlist when it gets found
I’m so glad someone finally solved it!
I've been listening to this song for months I'm so glad it's been found!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I bet this song came from myspace
Or Limewire
It ended up being from 1999, didnt expect that
I need this song a spotify so i can put it on my playlist
I heard fly leaf's song All Around Me on the radio and I swore that they have the same vocalist
This was solved!? 😮👏
YES!!! I’ve been listening to this since I found it.
I wonder if the lyrics towards the end are saying something like “This is a beautiful movie we play in/and I’m gonna tape it when I get in” roughly 😆 hope this one gets found it sounds cool 😍
The singer sounds like the singer from the band 'Sick Day,' may be worth it looking into it.
{Lyrics}
[Verse 1]
June arrived with a bitterness so cold
I looked around, expecting December
In the distance, the sound of the highway
The last thing I can remember
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So you think you wanna go, well, let me go
Then you think you wanna stay, well I know
I’ll step outside, once again I'll be leaving
Be leaving
Believe me
[Chorus]
There is a song somewhere inside of me
Damn them all, one hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
[Verse 2]
You took away all the comfortable silence
And left behind a beautiful future
The faces never ceased to amaze me
The amazement doesn't even begin to phase me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So my life is just beginning to hit me
I'm already six feet under
Your timing just kills me
It just killed me (It killed me)
[Chorus]
There is a song somewhere inside of me
Damn them all one hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
Who is gonna save me now?
[Outro]
This is a beautiful movie
We play in
And I'm gonna change when I
Get in
This is a beautiful movie
We play in
And I'm gonna change when I
Get in
Rest in peace Mickey Vaughan ❤️❤️
This song is so good! 😮
It’s devastating that this is lost. It makes me nostalgic for my middle school/high school days.
idk if this will aid in the search, but the singer sounds VERY similar to Kaitlynn West. you can really hear the similarity in the song "Everything Is Going Great" by Tiny Stills.
After so many people saying bands like Flyleaf or Paramore, Tiny Stills is one who sounds very close to this one
Love them
It's not her, I sent a dm on ig and they denied it
You what? You sent them a message?
@@ZapperRS Yes, and it's not them
wait waaaaat? I was listening to it yestarday and this song wasn't solved 😮 and today is 😮
June arrived with a bitterness so cold
I looked around expecting December
In the distance, the sound of the highway
The last thing I can remember
So you think you wanna go? Well, let me go
Man you think you wanna stay? Well, I know
I’ll step outside, once again I’ll be leaving
Be leaving
Believe me
There is a song similar inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred-fifty three
I can’t protect them from myself
Then who is gonna save me?
You took away all the comfortable silence
And left behind a beautiful future
Their faces/ the phases never cease to amaze me
The amazement doesn’t even begin to phase me
So my life is just beginning to hit me
I’m already six feet under
Your timing just kills me
Yeah, it just killed me
There is a song similar inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred-fifty three
I can’t protect them from myself
Then who is gonna save me?
Who is gonna save me now?
This is a/our beautiful movie
We play in
And I’m gonna change it
When I get in/him
This is a/our beautiful movie
We play in
And I’m gonna change it
When I get in/him
This song reminds me a lot of Plumtree, which could could be a clue.
omg it’s kurtb kocain 😍
i knew they sounded familiar. listening to plumtree now, they definitely sound similar
@@weeztardI love jurtb kocain
@@CrappyMusic-cb6bl ahhh how I like krunt crowbrain's songs
@@Parasite890 I mainly like krunk bowsane because Nevanah
Possibly late 2000s, I'm still looking for this.
Sounds like light-hearted Flyleaf
Foulest doesn’t sound any different.
@@okjeffy6581 Foulest?
i hope this gets found, i really like this
it might be "there is a source of allure inside of me"?
I hear "There's a sourceable error inside of me".
I hear “There’s a silence of a line inside.”
Given the lyrics context, the song could very well be called downfall, but since that line isn't in the lyrics, is it possible that that's the band name, Downfall?
i've never seen an mp3 named after the band rather than the song name
songs can be called something thats not in the lyrics
They’ve already kinda proved this is the possibility, with someone finding a MySpace band called Downfall with a song called Save Me Now that has a length of 3:22
Lyrics i think may be a bit more accurate? not entirely sure but this is just what i hear
June arrived with a bitterness so cold
I looked around expecting December
In the distance, the sound of the highway
The last thing I can remember
So you think you wanna go or let me go?
Man, you think you wanna stay, well I know
I’ll step outside, once again I'll be leaving
Be leaving
Believe me
There is a (source?) of a (layer/slayer?) inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
You took away all the comfortable silence
And left behind a beautiful future
The (Mazes?) has never ceased to amaze me
The amazement doesn't even begin to faze me
So my life is just beginning to hit me
I'm already six feet under
Driving just kills me
It just killed me
(It killed me)
There is a (source?) of a (layer?/slayer?) inside of me
Damn them all one-hundred fifty-three
I can't protect them from myself
And who is gonna save me?
Who is gonna save me now?
This is a beautiful movie
We play in
I'm gonna change when I
Get it
This is a beautiful movie
We play in
I'm gonna change when I
Get it
also, wanted to say, this song is probably one of my favorates, and i hope it's found soon, this type of rock is probably my absolute favorates
The last words are the one i also hear. Well, instead of "Get it" i hear "Get in"
I can definitely hear “There is a source of allure inside me” !! Hoping this song gets found, it’s a banger😁😁🫶
I think the part at 1:16 is faces
This kinda reminds me of that one jars of clay music video where it features the band preforming in a room slowly filling up with water and their being a giant potato.
Could the “sense of rant inside of me” potentially instead be “Song somewhere inside of me”?
I NEED THIS NOW
Banger
I didnt expect this to be found
Awesome song.
kinda slaps tbh
It was found, let's goooo 🤯🤯🤯
This reminds me of the indie band Julie quite a bit
its very alt rock with shoegaze
@@angela.luntian this doesn't sound very shoegaze imo, it's missing the wall of sound. Still a banger though
I wholeheartedly agree
I love this
IT WAS FOUND!!!!!!!
NO FUCLING WAY THIS SONG WAS FOUND
DOWNFALL GOT FOUUUUNNDDDDD
The singer's voice sounds really familiar. Reminds me of Veruca Salt or That Dog
Fuck yeah, still a banger even though it just got discovered
Go Betty Go? The Dollyrots? Either way, it's awesome
ONG WE FINALLY FOUND IT
hope we can find the song, its fucking amazing!
jyatt!!
The vocals remind me of Juliana Hatfield mixed with Liz Phair
FOUND
Sounds like Betty, the band who made The L Word opening theme.
That first line starts with “June” and not “Turn”
it does not sound like that
To me it sounds like "your timing" instead of "driving"
don't think its them, but one of the vocalists reminds me of Julie Chadwick from Helicopter Helicopter
This is probably a less known band
the cover art is so fire sheeesh 🔥
Sounds like Flyleaf??
What if this channel avtuslly made all these unknown songs and is naming it unknown to boost them? Good songs and also the cover matches the song too..
Bro, cant you read descriptions???
Sir. This channel always links the source of the snippets. Check the description pls
that's what Panchiko did, it's genius
@@sxmbxdy Did they though? I mean if they did then yeah that's genius but don't know how we can say for sure they did
I COULD ASSURE IT'S FLYLEAF'S VOCALIST'S VOICE.
LACEY STURM.
THATS WHAT I THOUGHT TOO
Natalie Grant, cause there’s a song from 2008 that she sung that has this exact rock sound.
It doesn’t sound like her to me
@@okjeffy6581Which song?
Has Citizen A done anything outside/after Pepper Sands?
hello btw what is going with a band? btw why old title was deleted? that previous title could be archived
edit: how author and official title has been found?
LastFM
2:16 1:07
This is definetly plum tree
They were already kinda known back then and their sound was nothing like this, so no.
@@NGU7754 Oh alright thanks
This placeholder album cover fits the song really well!
THIS IS ALTERNATIVE NEW ROCK, IT'S NOT PUNK.
Possibly late 2000s
Nice sketch. When the lostwave's rewind?
Still working on it, though I might also focus on other things
I don't know if i could be right but i think at 0:44 the lyrics say "theres a song similar inside of me" remember i could be wrong though :p
I also hope this song gets found it's fire 😭
I swear I was playing GTA SA and I heard that song on the radio, but I don't know if it was because I was a little crazy that day or if I really heard it
gta sa is from 2004 and allegedly this is from 2008
Maybe a bootleg version of the game?
@@ia_melaniemartinez Yes I know but I had heard it on the GTA radio for a strange reason, the worst thing is that I don't even have an external radio in the game
@@NGU7754 Not at all, for some reason it appeared and now
I think this song was probably possibly from a teen titans Amv.
Elaborate?
please tell us if you have a clear memory of this
from what time
Sounds sort of like royal treatment plant.
probably it’s not
No, not really
the accents are different
It kinds sounds like it but not it
furry?
kinda similar to julie but def not made by them
Well, I tried for you. Could not find it anywhere. Guitars sound like Grunge. Good luck!
