its a catchy upbeat song that sounds like the pet shop boys and I can't get it out of my head. It goes something like.

Even more info. The vocal melody in the chorus sounds like the chorus of M79 by Vampire weekend. Songs are not related but the vocal melody sounds the same.

I forgot to say that the Do's are the words in the vocals during the chorus but they are not saying do. I can tell its an 80s song by the style of drums,guitar,synths, you just know this stuff if its in your head

I actually think I understand the song you are talking about, but I have no idea what song to place the beat to. Lyrics would help enormously.

This is a glorious trainwreck, "there are lyrics that are like 'do do do' but that's not the words and it has synths in it and is from the 80's, so there are only about 125,000 songs it could be!"

ultamite_gamer

Maybe it's similar to an early 80's song I'm also looking for. But, instead of do or du, it's got uh and Oh: uh, uh-uh, uh-uh, Ohh. It has a beat to it almost driving music fast. It's been stuck to my head for years :lol:
