After years of torment and speculation, the mystery surrounding an 80s song, affectionately known as "Everyone Knows That" or "Ulterior Motives", has finally been solved by a Reddit user. It all began in 2021 when the song was shared on the forum WatZatSong by an original poster who was unable to identify it. As the catchy tune remained unidentified, interest and frustration among internet sleuths grew. Eventually, a subreddit dedicated to solving the mystery emerged, attracting 47,000 members and gaining attention from major publications like The Guardian and Rolling Stone.
Theories about the origins of the song ranged from it being an unreleased track from popular bands like Roxette or Savage Garden, to being featured in a childhood ad. But it wasn't until an unlikely source - an 80s porn film - that the case was finally cracked. The discovery was made by Reddit user south_pole_ball, who matched the song to a songwriter named Christopher Booth, known for creating tracks for porn films.
In a remarkable display of determination, south_pole_ball watched every film featuring Booth's work until they finally heard the mysterious song play at exactly one hour, seven minutes, and thirty-one seconds into the 1986 film, Angels of Passion. They excitedly shared their discovery on Reddit, writing, "I went through each video and watched them, until I found Angels of Passion. To which I got to 1:07:31 and I found EKT [Everyone Knows That]."
The internet erupted with excitement and celebration upon hearing the news. Even the original songwriter, Christopher Booth, took to Instagram to express his shock and amazement. Fans are now requesting that Booth release the original audio of the song, as the only versions currently available online are fan-edited or feature sounds from the porn film. Booth has hinted at the possibility of releasing the original version, but it has yet to be confirmed.
If you've been following this mystery for years, you'll know just how big of a deal this discovery is. The internet has been buzzing with reactions and fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the original track. It's a testament to the power of online communities and the determination of individuals like south_pole_ball, who refused to give up until the case was solved.
