Not sure if I speak for everyone here, though there does seem to be a mass influx of people after tune ID's with just lists of links to videos or downloads or youtube, which is no help to me! I can't get youtube at work, nor do I have the time to load them at home, Therefore to help your quest, may I suggest you give a description of the song?

Remember to include, say, (in rough order of usefulness)

Style - House, Techno, Trance, Breaks with any adjectives du jour (funky, electro, minimal, whatever)

Lyrics - Feel free to substitute words eg "something something love"

What 'sounds'/instruments are in it - EG, heavy, deep bassline, or saxamaphones etc

Where you heard it - Club, night/promotion or DJ.
What else ws played - To give a view of the type of music (cos one mans minimal, is another mans dirty, is another mans electro etc!)

If you think it's old or new - If you know, that is. Or if you've only just started hearing it (i.e. it sounds new)

If it's at all popular - e.g. "This tune was played everywhere..." etc

Or anything else you may think would be of use.

The list is merely a guide, though I thought it may help in case some people can't think how to describe it.

but dont forget to add the link of youtube or sample (especially whistling samples) if you have them for those of us who have modern computers with fast internet access. I find it easier to do them to be honest than "it goes a bit like this... duh duh duh duh BOOOOOOM duh duh duh dr bleep"

but yeah, follow dans advice too for maximum success :)
