I have heard it many times and sounds like the equivalent of “show me”. Unfortunately when I search for it the internet is nice enough to come back with Godzilla.

Also in many songs and TV shows I have also heard what sounds like “mmmmm” as in “mmm that’s good”. Is this and actual word or something equivalent to our “UM?

When I first learned about them it was reeeeeally confusing to differentiated between the two, but it comes with time.

It means ‘this way, here’, so it could fit with ‘show me’ if you translate it a bit like ‘here, let me show you’.
If it’s not こちら, nothing else comes to mind, sorry.
