Feels Like A Wish, formerly and colloquially referred to as Fond My Mind, is a song produced sometime in 1989 by Station K., a Brazilian duo consisting of Edde Eddman and André Nóbrega.
History
In August 2014, a user by the name 'Peter' on the spiritofradio.ca website uploaded a 30-second clip of an unknown song, asking if anyone could help him identify the website. Despite a user claiming it to be a Red Sector One song that went unidentified, a TMMS Discord user by the name 'nonoseacrest' was able to contact Mike Davis, a member of RS1, who confirmed that 'Fond My Mind' was not an RS1 song.[1]
However, after some additional searching, it was revealed that Peter was not the first person to upload the unknown song to the internet. In fact, a year before Peter uploaded the 30-second clip onto spiritofradio, a user by the name of 'gsipkoi' uploaded a 30-second clip of the same song onto WatZatSong? which was noted to have a 30-second cutoff mark. Using this information, people theorized that gsipkoi (later known as Gabor) had only cut it off to 30 seconds to fit the WatZatSong mark.
Eventually, a user by the name of 'Glups' was able to contact Gabor and convinced them to join the Discord for the 'Fond My Mind' search effort, and Gabor gave out some additional information relevant to FMM:
- Gabor had recorded the song on cassette tapes c. 1993
- He had recorded them off of the Brazilian radio station Transamerica, giving insight that this was likely a Brazilian song
- Other Brazilian people on Reddit and in Gabor's family also recognized the song without knowing the name
Finding the song
With this newfound knowledge, many people flooded the messages, emails, and social media profiles of any potential Brazilian DJ who produced Eurodance-type beats from the 1980s to 1990s. One of these men, Edde Eddman, was increasingly frustrated with the influx of messages he received daily and began threatening lawsuits against people who used his song. However, a man by the name of William Paiva, who knew Eddman back in the 1990s, claimed that it was, in fact, Eddman's song, that its official name was 'Feels Like A Wish", and that it was part of a project called 'Station K'. Paiva would later upload the tape in its best quality to YouTube, officially ending the search for 'Fond My Mind'.
