This might even be the craziest discovery of the decade. Full Song: • "Everyone Knows That" ... Discovery Announcement: / ekt_is_found_heavy_nsf... #lostmedia #everyoneknowsthat #found
The fact this was discovered in a 1980s porno flick is absolutely goddamn hilarious. And that snippet was the only part of the entire audio track without moans!
Apparently the guy that found the source was looking over at about 65 adult films from the 80s and once he got to that video, he reached an equivalent of finding diamonds in Minecraft.
@@thedrewster0408 Or maybe the equivalent of finding the seed # that was used to take the screen capture that became the default thumbnail next to each world in your worlds list (for which there has been an ongoing lost media search of its own)
"Everyone Knows That" being found inside of an 80s porno makes so much sense, honestly. I believe that Carl92 KNEW where the song was from (obviously), but was hoping that there was a studio version of it available on the internet.
That is what I am thinking as well, and I doubt he knew about the obscurity of the song in question and was expecting a much quicker answer than how it turned out.
What's really embarrassing is that Carl92 knew where it was from and lied, like it's not as if his real name and face was attached to the question, and the source is a vanilla, bog standard 1980s adult movie? Is that super embarrassing? (I mean besides watching 30 year old porn, that's kinda weird). If he had just been honest, EKT could have been found so much faster, but then again, we wouldn't have some big lost media search.
@@Blakbox92 Not everyone wants to share their porn viewing experiences online, regardless of whether it's softcore or not. Even if Carl92 mentioned where the song came from the very beginning of the search, I'd doubt that he'd be keen seeing the many replies about him looking for an 80s porno song.
@@Blakbox92 That's what's so hilarious about it to me It would have seriously been less embarrassing if he went "yeah this old adult film had a good song, where's it from?" It's the fact he had the IMMENSE amount of shame about it that he'd go through the effort to edit the moans out and be secretive when asked that makes it ten times funnier
The fact that The Boothe Brothers are potentially agreeing to re-record this is phenomenal. Always great when the people who can provide lost media decide to play ball (looking at you, people who’re hoarding the lost episodes of Doctor Who!)
Well in the case of the Doctor Who hoarders it’s ridiculous. They are apparently afraid they’ll be arrested cause they did steal the episodes, BBC dumped them and collectors stole them from the BBC’s trash. However, BBC have had an amnesty on returning Doctor Who episodes since the 90’s, they’re incredibly thankful if fans return the episodes cause they know how big a cash cow DW is and want it all, they even let collectors keep their copy in the end cause all they wanna do is scan the thing and get a digital copy, so there is literally no reason for them to be hoarding
What I really like about this story is, how Christopher Booth reacted. Often when contacted, possible leads are rude or clearly show that they don't care about the community. He on the other hand used the unexpected fame, to show the world, that he's a really nice guy.
So much. A 1000%. I had exactly the same thought. The guy exhales pure love. He is one of those artists who really take their art as passion, as expression of love and the sublime, and he respects listeners and admirers because of that. I dont know how he is in his personal life, but as far as his artistic life is concerned this man is really gold; has given nothing but love to everyone. I will definitely be checking all I can from his catalogue.
He could have very easily gotten embarrassed and ducked out cause he found his porn music embarrassing. The fact he’s embracing it speaks volumes to his character
In a radio interview, he said he’s gonna dig through the archives in his studio to find the song. And if not, he will re record it. Even if his ulterior motive is to make some money while the song is still relevant, it’s still amazing fan service to help finish the search for good
feels like an end to a weird south park episode. - this guy downloaded a porno - he wanted to know where to find a song he liked - people needed to know what the source was - he lied to not be embarassed - people think its a lost ancient song, and take 5 years to find it - turns out to just be a normal retro porno and not lost at all - carl92 is nowhere to be found
It does feel like a South Park episode. Like I can imagine people going wild trying to find the song, president getting involved, people on TV demanding you call in and help them find the song
This ended up being my favourite kind of lost media - the one that's been up online forever, just somewhere no one had yet thought to look. Fantastic work by the finders!
for those who are wondering, the song wasn't made specificaly for that movie, it's just that the recorder of that movie bought the royalties for the movie and it's the only recording that we have available.
@@Blakbox92 The Booth Brothers have already found the instrumental track, they’re looking for the vocal track now. If they find it we’ll get an original studio version, if not they’ll just re-record the vocals
Well in a sense it's still sorta lost since one of the composers said they have yet to find a clean version of the audio in their archives. Meaning for now the only found version of it is (unfortunately) the audio straight from the adult film 😭😭 (Community efforts at cleaning up the audio have been pretty good though I will not lie)
It's not like the majority of people don't watch pornography, so I don't see anything really mockable there... Buuuuut I doubt most people watch obscure 1980s adult films, that's pretty weird.
@@Blakbox92 it's not particularly mockable, ofc a lot of people watch porn and it's pretty normal but the circumstances of how a guy was likely like "dang this song slaps but i really don't want people to know i was watching 80s porno, better cut off those moans!!!!!" and then STILL being caught is so cute... this could happen to anyone but poor carl had it all happen to such an audience
None of us can really tell what the hell Carl was doing but I think it would have been much less sus and embarrassing for him if he just said "yep, I know where this song could be from/where this song is from but I wanna find a clean version without any of the noises, help me find it, I beg ya"
But that would be UNFATHOMABLE. No man has EVER admitted to watching porn, don't you hear all the 11 year olds in the community? Sex is nasty and unnatural EWWW
If I had a penny for every lostwave song found on adult media, I'd have three pennies, which isn't a lot, but it sure is weird for it to happen thrice. -Sheiki, probably.
@@KokoaAmai19 One of the songs is "Please Don't Stop" which like Angels of Passion is also from 1986 and is the title track for a porn film of the same name and done by a band called Aladdin's Magic Rub. The other song is called "Friends" and it was found on a porn movie from 1970 called "Daddy's Baby Sitter". Those two along with "Angels of Passion" makes three pennies. 😁
An interesting tidbit about the porno that Ulterior Motives was found in is how it's been available for viewing for the past five years. The search began three years ago, and during that time, not one person who has ever watched Angels of Passion connected the song that was playing to the one people have been searching for years.
In the scheme of the entire internet, the percentage of people who would have watched that video AND known the song was even being looked for would be slim.
This wasn't the first time a lost song was found in a porn film. The earliest was a song called "Friends" and was found on a porn film from 1970 called "Daddy's Baby Sitter." The other song is "Please Don't Stop" and was found to be the title track of a porn film of the same name that was released the same year as "Angels Of Passion" in 1986 and performed by a group named 'Aladdin's Magic Rub'.
This would have been found at a fraction of the time it took if only carl92 added a single second of moaning to the sample and saved himself being publically exposed like this.
@@WILDWINTER_BIRD I recognize her because she was in the very first 🌽 vhs tape I saw when I was 13 years old in 1985. The movie was called Cagney and Stacey from 1984. Had I seen Angels Of Passion back in the 80's or 90's and been aware of the song, I would have solved the mystery as to where it came from.
It's clear you had a field trip with this one, Mike. I don't know why, but there's something terribly cursed about hearing you say "gooner" with such giddiness.
I couldn't consider this truly "found" until I heard your follow-up! I love hearing how amused you are by the search conclusion. I can't stop giggling myself. 😆
This reminds me of how people figured out there was a lost Doraemon episode. Since people found out about it though an adult film as well. Because in the adult film the tv in the video was playing the lost episode 😂. Maybe the lost media community should watch more adult films to find more lost media for "research" 😅.
You got some facts incorrect - Chris did sing main vocals for Sweeney Todd but Phil didn't play drums, their older brother, Johnny Booth, did. Phil played guitar for Sweeney Todd Band during that time.
I almost kinda feel bad that Carl92 is getting clowned on because of the discovery but man it is just too damn funny to learn about where the song came from 😂
I know that guy! I met him at a horror con years ago. He gave me marijuana concentrate and my friends and I hung out in his room. Weird guy. Never thought I'd hear the name "Christopher Saint Booth" again.
I watched the movie recently, for research purposes of course, and I find it absolutely hilarious that the clip posted was the *only* part of the whole thing where there were no moaning.
True, but also it IS funny. Not only it being found there but also that the original poster edited it and delayed the search by 3 years because he didn't want to admit where he heard it. Like, people can't NOT make jokes about a situation like that.
If I had a nickel for every time a lost song was discovered in a porno, I'd have 2 nickles. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice. Then again, "Don't Stop" at least kinda told you it was from an adult flick. It was the background music for a vanity plate for a porno company, so that was fairly obvious.
Makes sense. There's not a lot or oversight as far as crediting old smut flicks and a lot of composers don't actually want that kind of credit. Idk why people considered it a troll.
Every lostwave song that’s found gives me hope for The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet. And yet, I just have to laugh at this one. Carl92, you naughty, naughty guy lol
I didn't even know adult films had plot lines like that! Heck, even the cinematography shown in the clips here surprised me! I'm not very familiar with the genre at all, so I never even realized there was stuff of that quality! Wow!
This was my most wanted piece of lost media ever since I first heard it. I'm glad it was found but with the background noise, I'm not sure how I feel about it.
funniest ending to one of the biggest mysteries ever!! Carl is one nasty guy lol!!! And I'm happy for Chris Booth that their song is getting regconized with many people. Now we need a remaster of the song and that will be the true ending of the mystery
Bro the song is actually better than i thought it hella slaps and is super good compared to the other "music" from the movie line it really stands out compared to the others like it doesn't even belong there.
Now that we know this story, it gives me an idea. Maybe you could do a video on other lost media searches that had hilarious results? Kind of like how clockman turned out to be on youtube this whole time. It would be a really fun and interesting subject to cover.
It's not too surprising, really. Another lost track, "Please Don't Stop", a theme song for an Israeli video company, ended up being taken from a pr0n of the same name.
They probably wanted to find the original without the moaning but didn’t wanna show the full audio because he would be caught watching porn(which isn’t that big of a deal man come on) so he only played a bit without it
He probably wanted to know the name of the song, but was so embarassed to say that he listened in the 🌽 that never said where it was. Just wanted to say congrats to Carl, he didn't want that people from WhatZat Song knew what he watches, but now "Everyone Knows It..."
I don't even get why he would have been so cagey, it's not as if Angels of Passion is some deviant fetish film, it's just some cornball goofy af adult movie, and it's not as if Carl92 is his real name.
I am absolutely not surprised at all that this turned out to be a Canadian production from the mid-'80s! That music had a real sound. Some of my desert island discs would be coming from that place and time.
I don't think we should bully the guy, but It's not cool that he abandoned the search just because he was ashamed of watching porn. If he had admitted it's origins in the first place, we could've saved so much time. We'd probably have a high quality version by now. I won't mock him for being a "gooner", but I will criticize him for sending the whole community in circles and giving false info. (And seriously, who in this day and age hasn't watched porn?)
It's nice to finally have an answer! I never would've guessed that _this_ was the song's origin, though; it sounds so girly and adolescent to me (it reminds me of the Jem theme).
this conclusion couldn't have been any more perfect. you got 2 people who were heavily invested in the search tracking down the song themselves, and the composers are super cool and willing to release the thing.
I was wondering why everyone was freaking out about this song, I knew it was one of those unicorns from the lost media especially lost songs communities, but man, the outcome is the best, for research purposes I was checking it and yes, I can confirm it says Everybody knows it, also, you got me laughing like crazy it is just something you cannot make up, how many other songs are lost just because people are afraid to accept the ways they found them out 😂
