Help identifying a song

[edit]

Can someone identify the song or at least the language of the song that starts around 41:20 on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5cGZG72EaQ ? 78.0.230.255 (talk) 22:07, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you click on "Show More", it should show you a list of every song Youtube's Content ID platform has identified in the video. While it doesn't tell you the time, it's not hard to guess from the list that it's most likely ดาวมหาลัย and sure enough clicking on the link on Youtube takes you to the official music video copy [1] and the beginning sounds the same (I didn't listen very far). There language therefore is likely Thai. Nil Einne (talk) 12:49, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, despite 4 million views, that version seems to be broken. (I initially thought it was my computer but I don't think so anymore.) You can find a possibly different version here that plays fine [2]. Note that we can't link to potential copyvios here, which actually probably includes your file but I'll let that slide, so if you want to link to any other versions, make sure they are not copyvios.

Yes, that seems to be it, thanks! I thought it was Filipino or Cantonese, because of many "ng" sounds. 78.0.219.74 (talk) 22:25, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If linking to Youtube is required for asking and/or answering a question, how should it be handled? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots00:02, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
