I do recognise this song. I did listen to Chvrches quite frequently some years ago. I do like this song and a couple of other songs from their debut album " The Bones Of What You Believe".

Haven't really heard much about them in the recent years. The only thing I have noticed about them lately is that they made a song for the video game "Death Stranding".

I was thinking more along the lines of where did I recognize it from. I had specific event in mind.

One last chance to see if anyone recognizes this.

Right, found another version that does work, but it does not at all sound familiar - other than the intro sounding a bit like those cliche multi-sports events theme songs that all seem to be kind of the same with some slight variations.

Well, you’re on the right track.

Hello everyone!

 

I rarely post some personal request but on this ocassion I will gladly appreciate if you could help me.

 

As you know COVID-19 pandemic has made it difficult for many people around the world, either by causing them to become ill, restricting their freedoms and of course, disrupting the economy, from the macroeconomics national level all the way down to the people's means of living.

 

From some time now I'm a member of a networking group, that among its ranks, features a Mariachi group. As some of you may already know, Mariachi music is one the traditional genres of Mexico and we're very proud of it.

 

As you may have already guessed, all their projects and presentations were put on hold, so one of the means they hope to maintain their presence is by becoming "viral", by playing their songs, some of them original pieces like the one coming on May 6th, in the virtual world. I personally like the touch they put on their performance, but of course, you'll be better judges.

 

To not drag this further, if it's not much to ask of your time and kindness, and of course if the Spotify and Youtube pages of Mariachi Rey are accesible in your respective countries, you could follow them and also reproduce some of its content.

Thank you very much for your attention and I really hope you like some the music.

    • I thought that was the case.  I just started watching skimo last year, but even then, I didn't recognize any of the women.  I recognized the top Swiss guy, I think.
    • Puripol Boonson seizes home men's 100m sprint gold after going sub-10 seconds in heats   https://www.olympics.com/en/news/sea-games-athletics-mens-100m-final-results-puripol-boonson   First Southeast Asian to go under ten seconds in the 100 meters.
    • Yes, that and a lot of the main medal contenders  either didn't have teams entered/or fielded B-C teams
    • Write-up on the Gisin story.   Olympic champion Gisin undergoes cervical spine surgery after crash
    • Seriously wish Bialystok will be banned from any European competition and for long time.
    • Unexpected boost for Team .  They are at least going to have a credible excuse if anyone fails any drug tests.     American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
