I don't think you'll get a medal.
Well maybe in the paralympics...

Name That Tune Emergency!
If you're on a piano/keyboard/high-tech computer sound thing, counting from the RIGHT hand side and using just the white keys, what is it that goes:
19th key once
22nd key twice
20th key once
23rd key twice
21st key once
23rd key twice
22nd key once

Ooh, aren't you clever?! But GAH, Help!
This is driving me absolutely mad. I have played it to three different people and they've all gone 'yeah, that is familiar, no idea'. Can everyone please have a go on zooo's snazzy futuresoundz interwebz-contraption?
Is it 'Chopsticks'?
Ha, probably, or something like the theme tune to The Bill
Everyone, what's the name of that film from a few years ago where a bloke was in Nazi Germany and someone was meant to be spying on him and wrote a book about him and got fond of him and couldn't dob him in to the Nazis?

Doesn't sound like anything to me, but you've given no idea of the rhythm, time signature, tempo or suchlike. I mean for example, is it in 3/4? Like a waltz? Upload it somewhere or we'll probably never be able to help.
So that would be crotchets followed by quavers for the double notes in the key of C. I am not sure it is anything in particular, I'm not happy with the return to B at the end, would suggest an A with maybe a resolution on C, but that still doesn't sound right. Maybe you should transpose it into a different Key and it might work better??
