In 2013, the WatZatSong user '''gsipkoi''' uploaded a 30-second snippet of a mysterious song, but it didn't gain traction until the user '''Peter''' reuploaded the snippet on spiritofradio.
Sometime in 2013, WatZatSong user gsipkoi first shared the song in a now-deleted and unarchived post.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210729184234/https://www.watzatsong.com/en/name-that-tune/365282.html</ref> On August 29th, 2014, a user named Peter posted the song again, this time to song identification website spiritofradio.ca, with no additional information as to where he obtained it.<ref>https://spiritofradio.ca/SongComments.asp?SongID=3103</ref>


==Discovery==
The song first gained popularity in September 2020, when it was first uploaded to YouTube by user "Usr deleated from Planet".<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p189KJtd5_c</ref>
The search was brought to the attention of '''Edde Edman''', who claimed that the song was from a group he was part called '''Station K.'''. He claimed to have written the song alongside Sergio Dourado, but later stated that it was actually with someone called '''André Nóbrega'''. Nóbrega was contacted, but he stated that he did not have the song.


However, an interview that Edde gave to TV Jornal Meio-Dia, in 1998, was found, in which a man called '''William Paiva''' appeared. Paiva did not produce Fond My Mind, but he had a copy in his studio. On December 14, 2023, Paiva released the song on his YouTube channel.
In early December 2020, Discord user Glups was able to contact gsipkoi, the OP of the original WatZatSong post, who quickly joined the server and provided an extended 3 minute snippet of the song without the intro, which JayKay, the owner of the Fond My Mind discord, posted to YouTube on December 8th, 2020.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20201209181626/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zznZJvtulY0</ref> The OP also revealed that the song was recorded from a Brazilian radio station, either Transamerica or Radio Cidade, indicating that it was most likely a Brazilian song.<ref name=":0">https://www.reddit.com/r/FondMyMind/comments/ou3eyl/timeline_of_the_search/</ref>

|'''(Intro)'''
I don’t know what makes me dream
but I know what makes me think
You’ve got blue eyes like the sky…
I feel part of you inside of me that will never die…
'''(Chorus)'''
I love you, you made my dreams come true…
'''(Verse 1)'''
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, don’t fog my mind
How can escape, from irresistible place
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, don’t fog my mind…
'''(Chorus)'''
I love you, you made my dreams come true…
'''(Bridge)'''
I’ve been trying hard to get away
but this love has come to stay
All the way, all in the way…
'''''(Synth Solo)'''''
'''(Bridge 2)'''
It’s gonna to stay forever, maybe I should know better
It feels like a wish, it feels like a wish coming true…

The song first gained popularity in September 2020, when it was first uploaded to YouTube by user "Usr deleated from Planet".[3]

In early December 2020, Discord user Glups was able to contact gsipkoi, the OP of the original WatZatSong post, who quickly joined the server and provided an extended 3 minute snippet of the song without the intro, which JayKay, the owner of the Fond My Mind discord, posted to YouTube on December 8th, 2020.[4] The OP also revealed that the song was recorded from a Brazilian radio station, either Transamerica or Radio Cidade, indicating that it was most likely a Brazilian song.[5]

On July 15th, 2021, YouTube user Whang posted a video about the song, increasing its notoriety as the "Most Mysterious Song of Brazil" and resulting in an influx of Brazilians assisting in the search.[5][6]
