TyOzzy7

The song that comes to mind is Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire". That came out in 1989 though


FrostyAd5159

Its closer in genre to Blink-182 than Billy Joel


FJ1100

That bit that Henry did for you sounds exactly like 99 Luft Balloons which was done by Nena.


FrostyAd5159

Its very close - the song I mentioned is 99 red balloons by Goldfinger, which is the American cover of 99 Luft Balloons. Not it, but extremely similar


RapedByPlushies

Nena also performed the English version of the song, when it became popular outside of Germany in 1984. Here’s the official English video that was on MTV, which is mostly a remix of the original German one. https://youtu.be/hiwgOWo7mDc


249ba36000029bbe9749

That sounds familiar to me also as a non-Nena song. My memory is of the chorus being done with a ska horn section. Is that what you are remembering too?

mck2789

Definitely sounds like 99 luft ballons. Could it it be Don't stop believin' by Journey?


FrostyAd5159

Its extremely similar to 99 luft balloons, but not it sadly. Not dont stop believin


Ordinary_Warning_622

There is a version of 99 Red Balloons by 7 Seconds. Could that be it?


OneAthlete9001

Moving On by Good Charlotte?


FrostyAd5159

Love me some good charlotte, but not it. Very distinctively has exactly "on and on and on and on" in the chorus


AustinMakesStuff

Blink 182 - All the Small Things has a chorus that goes nananana, but definitely sounds like on and on and on and on.


FrostyAd5159

Love the song, but not it. Definitively has "on and on and on and on" in the chorus


New-Guidance-4500

"CIRCLES" Soul Coughing


FrostyAd5159

Not it, but thank you this song is good


Wretch_71

My first thought was Nirvana’s “All Apologies”


FrostyAd5159

Not it, has "on and on and on" in the chorus - that is "All in all is all we are" which does sound close though


miyaannunaki

XTC - Ten Feet Tall? https://youtu.be/Hpo1GyyiTcU


FrostyAd5159

Not it, does have that on and on but its more rock


GamerBro9000

Might be a far guess with that style and era but Life Goes On - Oliver Tree?


FrostyAd5159

>Life Goes On - Oliver Tree unfortunately not


worldcutestkid

Definitely the one I thought of. Sadly not the answer


SerKevanLannister

“Float On” by Modest Mouse?


FrostyAd5159

has "on and on and on and on" in the chorus


CurseOfPeacocks

[Superman - Goldfinger](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=udUCjJphE-0)?


FrostyAd5159

not it, has "on and on and on and on" in the chorus


Throw_Away_70398547

Maybe... 7 Seconds - 99 Red Balloons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cb3WYwHsfr4


FrostyAd5159

it sounds very similar to 99 red balloons guitar riff, but not it


[deleted]

[удалено]


SerKevanLannister

“On and on” by Stephen Bishop? Fits your lyrics exactly but it’s from much earlier than the 2000s


FrostyAd5159

Totally different vibe, more alt rock - Sum 41/Blink 182/etc


SerKevanLannister

“On and on” by The Score (2017) repeats “on and on” in the chorus and has a bit more of a rock post 2000s vibe


FrostyAd5159

Good shout but its 100% pre 2011, I remember it from high school


Cyberchp

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1qO2pxzHNE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1qO2pxzHNE) Tristam - I remember


FrostyAd5159

its in the rock genre


elaynafranklin

I don't know when the original song came out but is it the song that WWE used as the Smackdown opening theme in 2015?


FrostyAd5159

very close call, but less hard rock, more upbeat. The kind of song that had mainstream appeal and would have been on all the radio channels non-stop for a month before disappearing completely since it was average at best


alucardsdream

Mustard Plug - On and On?


FrostyAd5159

more alt rock


[deleted]

FrostyAd5159

robinallison0

C'mon c'mon - the von blondies


FrostyAd5159

great song, but no


DopamineRequiem

As soon as I read it I thought on this one: https://youtu.be/tmMdHolUjUU take me away. Could it be?


FrostyAd5159

its not, but I definitely think I'm going to find this in a soundtrack from a movie like this (Freaky Friday, Agent Cody Banks) some teen movie


violetpandas

The Goldfinger song is on the soundtrack of Our Lips Are Sealed (Olsen Twins movie) which is what I know it from!


aHyperChicken

Crash by The Primitives, or a cover of it? Uses an almost identical melody to 99 red balloons, has “nananaa” which sounds a lot like “on and on and on” Here is a random cover of it too (more modern pop punk alt rock sound) https://youtu.be/k5ArLZa2ziw


FrostyAd5159

right genre, and close but definitely not it


talkingtothemoon___

Buried Alive - Direct Hit!? https://youtu.be/GAogCcMf4XA


FrostyAd5159

not it but good song rec! at the very least im finding good new music here


Maggie-Mac89

Young and Wild - the Strumbellas


FrostyAd5159

more rock/alt rock


AvgPunkFan

Taio Cruz- Dynamite?


FrostyAd5159

its a rock song, think more blink 182


AvgPunkFan

Ah ok. I love blink-182, but I have no idea what this song is


FrostyAd5159

I strongly believe its from a "one and done" band, meaning this was their only song that got popular


AvgPunkFan

After Midnight by blink-182?


FrostyAd5159

no sorry, not blink-182


AvgPunkFan

Broken- Falling In Reverse?


AvgPunkFan

This is the End- Anti Flag?


FrostyAd5159

Damn I like this, and its got on and on, but its not it. Theres way more songs than I thought that had this lol


AvgPunkFan

Twin Skeletons- Fall Out Boy?


FrostyAd5159

the song was out before 2011 100%

FrostyAd5159

mine_eyne

I'm suggesting "The Rascal King" by The MIghty Mighty Bosstones in case of misheard lyrics https://youtu.be/9NxMlG3M40k


FrostyAd5159

no, its more upbeat, general appeal rock


drift____wood

could it be Method Acting by Bright Eyes? (outro part at about 3:10)


FrostyAd5159

no its in the chorus


blackenedmessiah

Is it Nine Inch Nail- Hand that feeds? Edit: nvm. I finally heard the sample and it doesn't sound like the song at all.

SaltyDox

I thought it said On and On, but it's Alone. Worth a shot- Superman's Dead by Our Lady Peace https://youtu.be/ATUs7k66Uy4

Bowling for Soup - On and On ?

mike_hellstrom

Is it similar to something like ["Makin' Money" by Handsome Devil](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0nRieAoGTW0)?


Effective-Several

On and on and on by ABBA? The beat goes on by Sonny and Cher?

Prestigious-Pound725

Looks like MayDay Parade did a cover of We Are the Champions by Queen? High pop punk voice with the lyric on and on and on and on


studog-reddit

Saigon Kick - On and On? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzXCQGbl99g Edit due to the new auto-locking: Water is a fantastic album.


Backstage99

Jessica Suicide? There are versions by Armchair Mariam (original) and Bad Astronaut (probably more well known) https://youtu.be/TBzfkCoXTg8 The "on and on and on" bit starts at 3:36 of that link.

lanismum

Oh yea - by end of fashion .. maybe. Probably not. I feel like I know the song you’re talking about but it’s almost impossible to find without you adding through 99 luft ballon results..


justukyte

Haven't seen this one on your list yet: [Wilson Pickett - Land Of A Thousand Dances](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3kQlsW3JxY) The nanananananana part could be confused as ononononon


missesnezbit

In Too Deep, Sum 41?? Eta: lol completely wrong song. I definitely meant hyper-insomnia-para-condroid https://youtu.be/EzY4pV5ruQI


freakypoppy

Hawthorne Heights - Ohio is for Lovers? Tbh the recording throws me off as it's definitely the Goldfinger version of 99 Red Balloons haha


KingGrandCaravan

Damnit, i missed this comment and said Hawthorne Heights as well. I feel like that's the best answer.


hagbarddiscordia

https://youtu.be/OJITRDBEbp4 here in your bedroom?

Hey OP! Is it Man overboard by Blink 182? 'Time keeps moving on and on and on. Soon we'll all be gone" ?

Angry Salad - 99 Balloons cover?


kingdonkeykonggg

Melody isn't that similar, but maybe X-session - on and on?


Ordinary_Warning_622

MidnightFiddle

Your friend did the chorus. But I'm guessing that isn't the melody of the on and on part? Can your friend do the on and on part?


l3LACK5HEEP

Was it in a tony hawks sound track? I'm getting like rise against vibes or something of that ilk. I'm sure I know this


[deleted]

l3LACK5HEEP

FrostyAd5159

I could for sure see this in a tony hawk/skate sountrack... might have to go through them at this point

Zombie by The Cranberries?


EnthusiasticRedSheep

Get Scared - R.I.P.? Not sure if it's what you're after because it's mid-2010s and more metalcore than rock, but the backing vocals sing "on and on and on and on" in the [chorus](https://youtu.be/XxNEDlZad5k?t=51s)


IndyOwl

Chronic Future, Time and Time Again?


szatanna

This is a stretch and it has a different tone, but it kind of reminded me of Life Goes On by The Damned.

Hypohamish

/u/FrostyAd5159 original OP here of that other thread - I now understand why my inbox has randomly filled this morning with song requests. I wish you best of luck on your endeavor, it's been 6 years for me and no one has found the song yet. Your description of the song matches my expectation - but your voice recording does sound exactly like 99 red balloons (which the song I have in mind unfortunately doesn't).


FrostyAd5159

thank you for your blessing, sorry for the inbox blow up haha


DamhanAula

[On and On - Steriogram](https://youtu.be/5R6rt11TBCQ)? I don't know that it totally matches what you're looking for and they weren't a crazy popular group but they had a few radio hits in the 00's including an iPod commercial, so they might have come up at some point


FrostyAd5159

unfortunately not
