For 17-years the internet has been trying to solve the mystery of a song they knew only as “Like The Wind,” and now it’s finally identified.
The actual name of the song is “Subways of Your Mind,” a release from an 80s German band called FEX.
The mystery began when the song was uploaded in 2007. A German brother and sister uploaded song online that they had digitized after originally recording it as teenagers on a cassette from the radio. They asked for help identifying the song, but the it did not show up in any music databases. The internet took on that challenge and a Reddit subforum called “r/TheMysteriousSong” grew to 60-thousand members, but no one could figure out what this song was... until now.
Earlier this week, a user announced he had finally identified the song after he came across former members of FEX while researching an event for up-and-coming German bands in the 1980s.
AS for the band members, they had NO IDEA that song had become an internet sensation, and they’re now looking for the original recording so they can reissue it.
Here's the song:
