What is "Que no", "Que Si"?
I always hear this popping up in conversations "Que no!", "Que si!"
what does it mean?

It's used to emphise the yes or the no. -*ian-hill*Jun 23, 2015
"Que lindo" = "How lovely" for example.

It's not song lyrics, although, obviously it can appear in songs. It is, as Ian says a stressed positive or negative.
¿Quieres salir conmigo?
¡Que sí! ( Oh yes!- yes indeed,Great!)
¿Quieres casarte conmigo ? ¡Que no ! ( No, God forbid, never! )
Nice that two people answered it - only took about 8 hours Annie.

Whatever else it may be, it is also song lyrics. lyricstranslate.com/en/que-sí-que-no-nunca-te-decides-thats-yes-thats-no-you-never-decide.html-*rac1

It is just a tag:
Such and such. This and that. So on and so forth.

I always think of it like the French "comme ci comme ça" = like this like that.

The 'que', which is a connector, since it doesn't wear an accent, is for emphasis; it can turn a 'yes/no' into an 'of course (not)!!'' and it's used when you're enthusiastic about it or you've already answered before and the person is annoying you by asking you the same thing again (as short for 'claro que sí' o 'ya te he dicho que sí')*
