Tension Rising In The Air is an unsolved lostwave.

Background

On November 1, 2006, the user LORRAIN posted a 15-second sample on WatZatSong. It went unnoticed for around sixteen years until a wave of new interest appeared recently.

Because the sample was uploaded the day after Halloween, and the lyrics match with the theme, it is widely thought that the song comes from a Halloween-themed movie, show, advertisement, or some other media. It could also come from a decoration.

Theories

Soundtrack Theory

On 2006, the user pianoman74 mentioned: "@what is for sure is that it must be from an 80s action flick.". Other user followed with "no clue - even if it sounds a bit like 'Danger Zone' from Top Gun. It's not - I know... but yes - typically 80ies."

Users quickly began to notice what sounds like a sound effect placed over the song near the end of the snippet. It is assumed here that LORRAIN possibly heard the song used as part of a soundtrack, be a movie, an edit or an ad, and stopped recording once the sound effect came in.

Ghost-themed theory

Some users agreed that the song might have been from a ghost-themed show, "Ghost Train" as a possible source.

Lyrics

The lyrics most commonly agreed upon are:

I'm feelin',

I'm close.

Somethin' spooky like the shade of a ghost.

There's a certain tension risin' in the air.

My head is achin'

Fingers wet
