I thought it was a good song back in the 90’s of that epic era of alternative rock but today, it sounds even better having aged like fine wine. It just reflects how musically dynamic and innovative the 90’s were. Will always be a 90’s kid.
@@alexjones7043 Funny enough, I didn't appreciate 90's music as much while growing up in that decade. It only became of significance for me after the 90's had passed. Yeah...I struggle with modern music today as well, all sounds the same.
There were only few aspects of 90's music that were absolutely great. Those being alternative music scene and rap scene. It was great experimentation time for metal/industrial and alot of legends came out of that era. Im forever stuck in it myself. Rap and Hip Hop were also top of the line during 90's but i think it became too successful for its own good and modern day rap is just mere shadow compared to what it was back then. That being said, pop/dance music coming out of 90's was pretty bad, it was like hollowed out husk compared to 80's. Those cheap synthesizer beats are the trademark for 90's pop! Ofcource, theres always exceptions but, it was mostly bad!
My best friend of over 30 years died last year ,she was my bridesmaid the year this came out ,she didn't like "pop" music but she liked this ,she was a ufologist ,I'm listening today because I miss her 😢
@@ursulaschlapbach311 Well, POP can be anything, because its an abbreviation for "POPular". Basically your Radio Top 40, that's POP music, because it's in the mainstream and therefore mostly popular. This song was played quite frequently on the radio, so, essentially it was pop music.
This used to start with a pitch-shifted intro on the radio - it's how my friends and I performed it at karaoke back then. About a dozen of us. And only 1 mike. Never was a Chinese restaurant audience more satisfied! 🤣
Is that where it was first hyped I can't remember? I remember everyone was buzzing about the tune to come out based off the synth. Then when it did everyone was like wtf.
Im the same , we where young , no responsabilitys , great fckn music & no internet. So we interacted more. Its always good to go back....ill give you one " loaded" primal scream. Im sure you,ll already have this one on your playlist.💫💥👌

trying to change reality so we can get off this world. The song is really telling, as is the name of the band. Another banned The Kovenant released an album called Animatronic with a cover of this song on it, which is interesting because one of the other songs on there is New World Order. If you know for example an organisation like the Lucis Trust and which ideological concepts are behind the term New World Order as a new Cosmology, this song actually fits perfectly in that ideological context. A movement from a Christian world to a new one with endless worlds and beings in Outer Space. They're not lying about reality as some people state, they're trying to change it from an enclosed system to an open one. All they need is for humanity to truly believe it.
Who remembers being middle school age during the summer weekdays bored .. plopped in front of the box and just being transported to another world every time this vid hit the screen… ah the days of getting to just exist. What freedom this song represents for many of us, I am sure. 👍🏻
So many fond memories of this song. My dad (god rest his soul) got me this, aged 4, on cassette and we used to blast it going down the Motorway to his house. Not heard it in years and it just popped into my head today!
I can remember both me and my sister being obsessed with this song when it came out! Our dad was never too keen on playing cassettes in the car we had got from asda when we had been out shopping!

True love is to let someone go a place they will be happier. Even if you will never see them again. Sad to see you go friend, but I always wanted you to go, into space, man.
For some reason this song came in my head. Just listening to it, I can remember sitting on the sofa in December 1995 watching the video on TOTP Saturday night. Good times!!
April 1996 there were posters at railway stations "The Boy With the X-Ray Eyes". I was headed for London to change for the Eurostar to Paris at the time.
Always reminds me of th free festies becoming th rave scene, as th 80’s became th 90’s festies changed so much, many didn’t like th change, I luvd it, bringing more folk into th scene and th music was incredible, this is th softer end but yet says so much, walking by th rave tent with this blasting out feeling 10 feet tall, warm summer nights, luv it, sadly my travelling are dun, 🤣 peace convoy wernt we lucky t live when we did, Stonehenge Car henge 💚🪶💚🎼🎶🎶💚
This album is a rock masterpiece. There's not many albums that you can play straight through and every song is standout incredible. I think I acquired this album in the late 90's and being one of my favorites to this day, it still sounds fresh, heavy and unique.
I prefer the original version. This one is without all the weird and good stuff in the beginning and at the end (sound effetcs, acceleration, alien voices), without what made it different from the rest of the grungy songs on MTV at the time and here it just ends up in a classic loop. I remember (being a weirdo at the time and still a bit now) I remember every time I was watching the video thinking "God, I need that silver dress"
According to Wikipedia this song did not chart in the U.S. back in the mid-90s? What? Really? (I was around, but lived in Europe & heard this song a lot.)
I only know it because my Dutch BF sent it to me on a mixtape, but then I was able to find the album CD. So, no. I don't think it was a thing in the USA. I just managed to hear it anyway.
born and raised in the usa. i only heard about this song because of a british tv show set in the 90s. i can't remember what it was called, but the soundtrack was amazing. edit: i should mention that i'm a 90s kid all the way, grew up with mtv and grunge, but this song was NOWHERE. it's cool, though. :)
I seem to recall it did a little bit of 120 Minutes, may have been on Alternative Nation a bit. Was not even a factor at radio, but the playlist on Dallas' alternative radio station was probably about 7 songs long by this point...
I happened upon this album while interning at a small record label in San Diego. One of the guys got a promo copy and just let it collect dust. Always hungry for new music, I took it to my place and didn't give it back. Why they got very little love here in the states, I'll never know.
Je viens de découvrir qu'il y a eu une version pirate ! En 1996, un morceau du remix d'Arthur Baker 5th Dimension de Spaceman a été utilisé dans une publicité de Levi's au Royaume-Uni et a créé un battage médiatique ridicule. Lorsque la chanson est sortie dans le commerce, beaucoup de gens ont été déçus qu'il n'y ait pas de version tout à fait comme ils l'avaient imaginée. Un assistant sur Capital FM (Londres) appelé Marcus 'Mixmaster' McAdam a découpé des parties des différents mix Arthur Baker disponibles pour créer la version que tout le monde attendait. czcams.com/video/hI0TyapRH0A/video.html
On doit avoir à peu près le même âge. J'étais au début du lycée quand ce morceau est sorti. On le chantait volontiers avec un pote je me souviens. Las années 90...
I remember some people being annoyed because a remix of this song was used on an advert but when people went to buy the CD/cassette, it was this slower version on it. I think eventually the advert version was released.
Yeah, but then when you got home you were pissed off because you realized it sounded nothing like the remixed, up-tempo version used in the commercial. LOL
2024 anyone?
This one gets better the older it gets.
Claro que si

90s kid here. Come the 2000s and 2010s everything was pretty much done in pop culture. Tv, movies, music. There’s no more originality.
I favolosi anni 90 , quanta bella musica e’ stata prodotta in quegli anni no la merda che gira adesso
In 1996 way ahead of its time, In 2024 a timeless classic
Can't believe it was 28 years ? Where does the time go?
*It's 2024 and I'm still wanting to go to space, man!*
Still cool and modern in 2024

This is more Rock than Pop. I am am sad about your loss. She is your Guardian Angel now.

Well, POP can be anything, because its an abbreviation for "POPular".
Basically your Radio Top 40, that's POP music, because it's in the mainstream and therefore mostly popular.
This song was played quite frequently on the radio, so, essentially it was pop music.
Can't you contact her seeing though you're a psychic medium who can contact the dead?
I was working on a radiostation in Indonesia when this came out in 96 and totally mesmerized by it. Good old 90s, Brit bands ruled the wave back then.
'60 '70 '80 '90 ..
This used to start with a pitch-shifted intro on the radio - it's how my friends and I performed it at karaoke back then. About a dozen of us. And only 1 mike. Never was a Chinese restaurant audience more satisfied! 🤣
This is the original mix before the pitch shift which was done for an advert
Thats funny........
It's 2023 and I'm still listening to this masterpiece.

I first heard this soundtrack on a Levi Jeans advert .
Is that where it was first hyped I can't remember? I remember everyone was buzzing about the tune to come out based off the synth. Then when it did everyone was like wtf.
I think we all did
That’s so cool, I heard it on e4’s My Mad Fat Diary and my mum or dad said they recognised it from that
One of those adverts where the chorus was expanded into a full track czcams.com/video/mp_vXxTvrr0/video.html

I still listen to this song to this very day 👽💯👍👨🚀absolutely awesome xxxx

Yeah if this song had a smell of Charlie Red body spray and Body Shop Dewberry EDT for sure!
Patchouli and cannabis for me… the 90’s. Wish I could remember them 😂
