You've most likely already heard it somewhere (and certainly if you are >50)

if you think you've found it, PM me instead of telling the world here, that will let the other people search...

I played it over and over, and only one tune stands out when I hear it, but I am most likely wrong...

The song I am thinking of is a children's taunt.

I've played it quite a few times too and it does sound familiar. Maybe I could guess if I knew more.

It that the first few notes of the actual tune or a melody part? What instrument is used and what is the approximate tempo in beats per minute?

- This is the whole melody
- Telling you the instrument would tell too much
- Approx 60bpm

No... I don't think this tune can be credited to any composer!

I have played and re-played that tune. Has a somewhat familiar ring to it but I can't quite place it.

I've sent a PM, at least I think I have as it's currently sitting in my PM outbox.
