I absolutely love my new custom title ( images/smilies/mrgreen.gif ), but Autostream has completely stumped me with that song.

Don't worry though, I'm working on it. My ears are on the lookout..... er, hear-out. images/smilies/lol.gif

Anyways, I guess only the movie geeks here would get the reference. In plain language, a 'nemesis' is basically an enemy or archrival: Megatron to Optimus Prime, or Cobra Commander to General Hawk. images/smilies/lol.gif

The literal dictionary meaning is slightly different, but that's the normal usage of the word.

I'm just full of geeky references!

Yeah, nemesis is like archrival. If you are someone's nemesis, you are a pain in their ass and vice versa images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Oh, and as far as Snatch goes, I didn't like it.

Hm, can you try #3 again? It's intense, violin-sounding music, especially from 46:55 to 47:00, whereas Spybreak is more detective/Matrixey. At times, there are whispers of lyric from some female-sounding singer. Thanks again for all the help.

Zenon, so what's the song that played at the start of the drag race for the June 6th, 2004 episode?

I assume you are talking about the song at 52:25 in the episode (if you post another request put the specific time of the song you are asking about, it's a lot of work to flip through episodes).

Someone has asked that exact same question in the June 6th thread where I said I wasn't sure but that I would bet money on it being Moby.

I still don't know the name of the song, but I'm 99.9% sure it is Moby. I'll definetly start looking for it again. My collection is a bit short on Moby.

Sorry about that. Spybreak is the song that comes in at 45:05 (it sounds 'Matrixy' because it was actually used in the first Matrix images/smilies/tongue.gif ).

I'm not sure about the song from 46:55 to 47:00 though. I don't recognize it from the clip, and 5 seconds of a song isn't much to work with. images/smilies/sad.gif


... Maybe I don't deserve my custom title. I just went 0-2 there.

I'm determined to get that Moby one though... just give me time! images/smilies/tongue.gif

I think I would care more about the body part than the movie. images/smilies/wink.gif

So can someone kindly give me a clue?
