Status: Partially Found

Malibu Video was an Israeli VHS distribution company that was active sometime throughout the 1980s.[1] Not much is known about the company in question, especially when compared to most other VHS distributors from there that were more popular, such as United King Video & Empire of Cinema. While not much has shown up about them, one especially mysterious thing about it is that it uses an English language powermetal synth song that has yet to be identified.

The Song Itself

There is no legitimate information about the song itself online, even when looking up the lyrics for the song. However though, there are some things that some people have been able to identify. Firstly, this is seemingly only the first minute of the song & the fading at the end of what we have seems to have been done by the people behind the creation of the logo. The lyrics themselves have been identified outside of the last few seconds.

"Please don't stop, it feels so right. I wanna make it last all night. You make me feel like I can't say no! So hold me all night before you go! The way you touch, the things you say, the way you moves takes my breath go away. Feels so good, it feels so right. You're gonna be that special night! Don't stop, please don't stop! Don't stop, I need to hold you 'til the morning time! Please, don't stop! Stop, don't, it feels so right. Stop, don't, let's go all night. Stop, (inaudible because of fade out)"

Interestingly enough, one of the higher pitched synths used throughout the song was also used in The Most Mysterious Song On the Internet which used the synth right at the end in a lower pitch than this song. However though, it is unlikely that it's the song as the singer of this song sounds similar to that of 80s American/Canadian woman singers while the other song has a more German man voice to it.

Availability

Only this part of the song is known to have surfaced on the internet so far due to it being found in a compilation of Israeli VHS logos. These logos, as well as several Greek VHS logos, are infamous amongst the logo community for stealing music from other sources, though the Greek logos are more well known. These logos also don't credit the music being used in the logo at all, making it even harder for it to find. Despite this, people have been able to identify several pieces of music they used, such as Greek logo PAP Video, which infamously stole "The Final Countdown" by Europe.

While many of these music tracks have been identified throughout the years, this one still hasn't, likely due to it being much lesser known throughout the logo community than other music stealers out there. However, judging by the other VHS logos present, it is possible that this logo was recorded sometime in the 1980s, more than likely the mid 1980s. Whether or not the full song as well as name & artist will surface is a mystery.
