    Question Need Help Identifying 5 Songs

    I have a few songs that I need identified from MIDI files of short segments. They are all songs from the 60's through 90's and some might be theme songs from shows or movies. They all seem very familiar, but I can't quite place them. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    The attached .zip file contains the 5 short MIDI clips.

    Song25 sounds very familiar, wouldn't be surprised if it was a new romantic track.

    I'm pretty sure that there isn't anything really recent. I was told that they are all from the 60's through 90's. Also, I was told that "song 7" was by Elton John.

    Is there any way you can upload them without the zip thing ?
    I can't open those

    Thanks, emily1979, that sounds absolutely right for #25!

    I'm not sure about I'm Still Standing for #7. I'm going to try speeding up the tempo of my MIDI file and see if I can get it to match better. The album version of the song is available here (free):

    That's amazing emily1979, you nailed another one!

    It turns out that song was voted the worst ever:

    Also, thanks to the moderator, Steena, for uploading the songs in a more usable format!

    Don't mean to nitpick (but I'll probably be called that by the mods anyway...) but Starship sung "We Built This City...", Jefferson Starship were a totally different band.

    JEFFERSON AIRPLANE - JEFFERSON STARSHIP - STARSHIP

    all of the above bands were generated from each other they just kept changing the name and swapping members so yes they were known as starship when that track came out, anyhooo i just went from what what you tube were advertising it as!! just for you lfv

    Song 14 appears to be "One Fine Day" by The Chiffons.

    Jefferson Starship were all but two of Jefferson Airplane.


    And Youtube video titles are dictated by the people who upload them.
