    OP, have you asked the other people who go climbing? Do you know the people you do it with?

    Yeah, I've asked them all, they have no idea.

    Like I said, at the time, I just asked my belayer who kinda shrugged a bit and said my rendition of it sounded like knocking on heavens door and that was it.

    Being (believe it or not) a normal person, I just assumed I'd either remember who did the song, or forget about it - I've no idea why it's bothering me so much!

    They don't know what station it was. Might have been someone's iPod.

    Yeah, it definitely wasn't the radio - they never listen to the radio in there.

    Bruno Mars - Locked out of heaven

    only becaue the word Heaven is in it and the song does have some lyrics which might sound like song/son if you are climbing a wall with a helmet on. :D

    As soon as I read the first post I knew what the song was... well, I'll be super surprised if it's not...

    La Tristesse Durera by Manic Street Preachers

    Fab song

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    I have good feelings about this one - please let it be it so I can resume normal sleeping again ;)
    I was a DFW, now I'm a MFW :T
  • I hope it's not that Manics song..... I don't see it at all with that one :huh:

    I've spent my evening pondering and still have nothing though!

    I'm here, I'm here.

    oliveoyl sounded so confident - I got really excited....but no cigar :(

    Interesting, though...particularly that the "so-on, so-on" bit could be "sigh, sigh"...had never thought of that.

    And it's a great unique guess that we've not had yet - shows there are still people out there with other ideas :D
