It’s amazing how we just find lost media in the most random places. Even when people say “I saw this film once on TV/song on the radio and never saw it again” and then this leads to a lost thing being discovered unexpectedly.

I'm still in shock it's been found. Absolutely incredible. Great video!

[George_Bland]

Cracking news! I'd seen a video about this song probably like 4 years ago, great to hear it was found and the band is still in touch (and alive)!

i do find it mad that the two most mysterious lost songs on the internet have been found within months of each other. thankfully this one wasn't found in a pornography film like ulterior motives.

Oh I’m glad you’re covering this! I’m 80% sure this is the band but we still haven’t received the tape that includes the original demo, the one that Darius heard on the radio, the one he taped that is the most famous version. They released a tape though that seemed very similar but had slightly upgraded instrumentation.

I was five years old in 1983 when this song was recorded. Crazy to think all those years of memories since then, this song has existed. I only heard about it sometime last year, and I'm so pleased that this has been solved. What a great story, and yes wholesome, of this resolve. Great short video explaining all this breakdown.

[MeowersYummers]

Idk what it is, but there's something slightly spooky about just how, well, "mysterious" this song is, your mate was right

Great video!

My dad literally just told me! I had showed him the song like three years ago, I come home and he shows me a news article saying who made it and that it was found! He knew how excited I'd be! My god, what a year, what a journey to finally find it, and I'm so excited for "Subways of your Mind 2.0"!

[KyleRDent]

Must be wild to go around, living life, totally unaware that a corner of the internet is obsessed with you for some reason, and then suddenly boom! I'd be so tickled.

I've never heard about this song before, really cool to learn about this. Really different to your recent content too.

Also I can't not say this, but this 40 year old song that's dominated the Internet and the band haven't made anything from it, I think Fex is a fitting name for them given what it sounds like

[TheLugiaSong]

No way, I can't believe it was finally found! I am glad to know the band is all still alive and in-touch, I did think maybe they had passed which would have certainly added a rather sad tone to things. I am glad they know their music is remembered, all this years on.

This is a perfect example of "even if utou don't think you'll have a fanbase, still release it. You might have a fanbase 40 years later".

My mom insists that she heard the song when she lived in California in the 80's. She's sure it was a popular song at a dance hall she used to go to in highschool and she was sure it also played on either MTV or VH1. I'm not sure though, with synth music being so popular in the 80's and the familiarity (I'm 36 and when I heard the song for the first time a few years ago, I thought I heard it before too). I'm not sure if my mom is telling the truth or misremembering.

Wow, i've been sort of following this for a while, just a few days ago I checked to see if there was any update. Very surprised to see it's been found!

[ModelsExInferis]

I didn't know any of this! Or, more likely, I've forgotten everything about it. 😂 Great that the band has been found. It's nice when you hear stories like this, reminding us that the Internet can be used for good, given how much bad comes out of it.

[V_Gostuah_u_Romki]

wow, i'm in video with VOD that i uploaded 6:00 XD

[DisneyGirl]

awesome keep up the good work mate ^^

Also if you see someone named Hiro claiming it’s not solved despite confirmation by Lydia and she is wrong.

[madmikefollower]

Wow! I’ve been waiting for this one to be found lokey banger

Some minor updates and corrections:
1) The band members aren't tech-illiterate old cranks. The keyboarder even has his own Youtube channel! He explained it pretty well in an interview. Basically, it boils down to a combination of several factors: We all live in our own internet bubbles. Things we might think of as a big deal often don't even reach the bubbles which other people live in. Think of it this way: You were a member of an obscure band that disbanded 40 years ago. What are the chances that "this mysterious song whose title and performing artist are unknown" will ever pop up on your radar?
2) The band members weren't strictly keeping up with each other on a regular basis. On the one hand, they apparently didn't split up on bad terms, and at least three of them knew how to contact each other easily as soon as they found out about the whole thing, but on the other hand, it's been a while since any of them had met each other in person, and it's been decades since they were all in the same room together.
3) They had completely lost contact with their old drummer. Fortunately, it turns out that he, too, is still alive and well, still owns his old drumset, and immediately got in touch with the radio station once he read about their reunion in the local news. On top of that, he was able to provide several vintage photos of the band performing at a festival, giving their newfound fanbase even more things to pour over.

Quite honestly, this story has gotten the most positive outcome possible.
