“Try To Smile Again” and its lost media status
On March 20th 2005, a user called “Marek” posted a 31-second snippet of a previously unknown song. There was no information about this song paired with the audio, so it was proven to be tough to find.
Over many years, this song was unknown, until it was posted to YouTube by the user “Lostwave 💜” on the 24th of May 2023. This helped a lot by raising awareness of the lost song.
On the 14th of February 2024, a longer snippet, which was believed to be the whole song (there was a bit of the first verse cut out), was uploaded to YouTube by “Johhaidii”. He sent this to a friend (Marek) in the early 2000s, but had only sent the 31 seconds that was previously lost.
Finally, on the 26th of February 2024, the unknown song was revealed to be an unreleased song by Sven Lõhmus, called Bravely.
