So Familiar (also known as "Just What I Want") is an unidentified pop-punk song allegedly discovered on a Motorola VE240 in the woods by Reddit user pax307.
Background[edit | edit source]
On May 10, 2024, the song was first posted to r/Lostwave by Reddit user pax307, who claims to have found the song on an Motorola VE240 that they found in the woods.[1] They extracted the full song from the phone on May 13, 2024 and provided the original file allegedly from the phone's SD card.[2][3]
If the story is not a hoax, the earliest that the song could have been created is 2008, when the Motorola VE240 was released.[4]
Theories[edit | edit source]
Possible Hoax[edit | edit source]
There is overwhelming evidence that the post is a hoax, and that pax307 made up his story of finding the song. The OP's story about finding a fully charged phone in the woods with nothing but the song on it has been viewed as suspicious by many.[5] The mp3 extracted from the phone was simply titled "song.mp3," which is unusual for a song downloaded from Motorola's built-in browser, and the quality is unreasonably low for a phone of that era.[6]
In his follow-up post, pax307 included a screenshot of the contents of the phone's SD card. The screenshot indicates that the audio file was transferred to the SD card from a computer, as it shows it on the root of the SD card rather than in the "my_sounds" or "my_music" folder. When asked for updates on the song one month after his original post, pax307 claimed that his friend misplaced the SD card and is unable to recover the phone's contents.[5]
Lyrics[edit | edit source]

| (Verse 1)
Tell me where you wanna go If I can see your smile. We stay, hangin' for a while. You and me. If I can see your smile. We stay, hangin' for a while. (Chorus) It's so familiar It's just what I want, just what I want To see you after- |
