thanks for your response, w0lfie. unfortunately, it's not "colonel bogey march." if played in the key of f, the notes would be as follows - - all in the same c-octave, except for those marked with an asterisk, which are a c-octave lower:
c a* a g f d g g f e f e d c a*
c a* a g f d g g f e c g f

Subject: name these tunes, anyone?
1. the opening riff in the vapors' "turning japanese" - - what composition is this originally from?
2. a late 80s or very early 90s new age instrumental tune which rotates around a motif very much like the opening seven notes of blondie's "call me" - - roughly corresponding to the part in which debbie harry sings "call on me with kisses baby."
3. a tango with a title something like "vulika." i saw a performance of it on the arts channel around 5 years ago.
4. a tagalog-language counting song for children. i saw it on a sesame street-style program from the philippines around 1999-2000. a little puppet wearing eyeglasses and a superman cape was singing it, while numbers flashed on the screen.
5. two songs featured in the talent show scenes from the 1967 frederick wiseman film "titicut follies." both songs are sung by two inmates, one of whom also plays a guitar. the first song is about chicago and includes reference to a "loop de loop" and the line "oh what a joy to be only a boy;" the second song is the show closer and repeats the lines "time to go, time to go."
6. a mariachi-style instrumental that chevy's fresh mex used in their mid-90s tv ads. in one such ad, chevy's employees in faux-mexican outfits appear at a shooting range, firing off their rifles at cans of tomato sauce, presumably to convey the idea that chevy's uses only fresh ingredients.
7. a whistled march that plays on an episode of the simpsons, for a segment in which bart builds a soap box racer.
thanks for any leads in identifying these songs

How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
