Both are referenced in the music when you go over the chord progressions. Bach during the verses and Tom Ze during the chorus. I love that the lyrics are about neither but are about NASA in the 60s. This song is genius on many levels.

Underrated band that deserved more attention ❤️

Mary is sorely missed. I can't listen to the HL song Porter Dimi without getting choked up these days

i adore high llamas! great song!

I love this song. Great chord changes and vibe. Beautiful

Probably the most beautiful thing ever.

Thanks for posting this. I always thought this was an amazingly beautiful song up there with the best of Lennon-McCartney and Brian Wilson. I mean, if you listen it's Tom Ze-Steely Dan-Stereolab in pop music perfection.

excelente!!!!!!! muy pocos grupos como este!! y como siempre, la mejor musica viene de la gran bretaña!!! aunke creo k si the high llamas fueran norteamericanos recibirian mas publicidad y serian mas conocidos de lo k merecen serlo, bien por sean o´hagan y co.!!!

What helps it sound "Stereolabish" actually...is that Mary Hansen is singing with Sean on here. Miss her.... : (

great band..awesome arrangements!

maravilloso grupo, una lastima que sean tan poco conocidos

Love this song. Great video.

Damn, that's great. Too bad there isn't many more stuff by the around here. Can anyone upload a live video? That would be awesome!

Genius.....pure God damn genius 'tis all!!!!!

love high llamas, microdisney... best pop

great song i love it

the high llamas es lo masssssss!!!!!

wonderful video

ive seen it a real flashback not a slip a real trip thank you for sharing not lo lo london but pgtrips

Just listen to Stereolab. Then Francoise Hardy, the Beatles (pre-1967) and the Beach Boys. Also Tortoise...but they do get into a Minimalsit thing which I love but some don't like.

Didn't no one see The vigil through the night By candlelight Not needing to abuse It's now a flashback for A dedicated few The history Come cite this astury To northern seas And on our metal ships It's now a flashback for A dedicated few From moon to Mars The slightest slip But now we rarely make the trip The skyline change May draw them to the park With pencils sharp Competing for a view It's almost summer now But winter for a few From moon to Mars The slightest slip But now we rarely make the trip A run to space could save the South/sound There must be stuff worth seeking out Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba The skyline change May draw them to the park With pencils sharp Competing for a view It's almost summer now But winter for a few From moon to Mars The slightest slip But now we rarely make the trip A run to space could save the sound There must be stuff worth seeking out From moon to Mars The slightest slip But now we rarely make the trip

Mais...de qelle galaxie... viennent ces zigs que j'écoute depuis 1996 ?
