Listening to this in 2024 as I’m chilling at home a couple of days before going to see Morcheeba play live. Been listening to them since the 90s and this is possibly my all-time favourite song of theirs ❤

10 years ago my mom played this for me in the car and I quickly grew bored of it. I came back recently as a high lord of extreme metal fanboyism and this song, of all things, suddenly hit like an 18-wheeler. Truly timeless and with an important message to us all.

"The moment you stop running is the moment you arrive." One of the best lines ever written.

I'VE SEARCHED FOR THIS SONG FOREVER. I must've seen it on TV when I was younger, years later all I could remember was the music video. My search history was full of "animals pears graveyard music video","animals ghosts surfing music video", etc. I gave up a long time ago and now this pops up in my recommended. I'm shook.. 😭❤

This is the definition of inspiration. This song helps me keep going, despite all the sh*t happening everyday.

This is my favorite song. I listen to so many different types of music: Pop, Rock, Psychedelic Trance, Goa, Smooth Jazz, Easy Listening, Hip-Hop, Hyphy, Punk, Country...just all kinds of good music out there. Out of all the songs, artists, themes, moods... This is my favorite song.

I think the song speaks of solitude, loneliness, facing your fears and skelletons in your closet and most of all opening your mind and forget the past because it's nothing but chasing shadows, we should instead just enjoy the ride. There is bunch of little lyrical tells in the song about instability because of constant soul-searching and trying to find answers about life --- the bigger picture and what it's all about.. Great lyrics and a great video.

2009-2013, i miss those times so much..

Morcheba is brilliant because the lyrics take on a whole new meaning once you think outside yourself, everyone is capable all you have to do is free yourself from the self imposed false reality of fear.Then all you have left is the present moment and love.

I've been listening to this song on and off for over 2 years and to me it's profound and speaks directly to my soul.

You shut the gates at sunset After that you can't get out You can see the bigger picture Find out what it's all about You're open to the skyline You won't wanna go back home In a garden full of angels You will never be alone But oh, the road is long The stones that you are walking on Have gone With the moonlight to guide you Feel the joy of being alive The day that you stop running Is the day that you arrive And the night that you got locked in Was the time to decide Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride If you close the door to your house Don't let anybody in It's a room that's full of nothing All that underneath your skin Face against the window You can't watch it fade to gray And you'll never catch the fickle wind If you choose to stay But oh, the road is long The stones that you are walking on Have gone With the moonlight to guide you Feel the joy of being alive The day that you stop running Is the day that you arrive And the night that you got locked in Was the time to decide Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride With the moonlight to guide you Feel the joy of being alive The day that you stop running Is the day that you arrive And the night that you got locked in Was the time to decide Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride With the moonlight to guide you Feel the joy of being alive The day that you stop running Is the day that you arrive And the night that you got locked in Was the time to decide Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride

Anyone still here 20 years later? (Will update every 5 years. Cheers.)

If my soul could write songs they would sound like this. Enchanting.. :o

Este o melodie frumoasa! Sunt impacat si nemuritor cand o ascult. Aduce liniste si speranta sufletului. Multumesc Morcheeba!

Simple, timeless - a wonderful message for all the frazzled folk looking for the meaning of it all. But oh the road is long And the stones that you've been walking Have gone

Was arsing about with my computer instead of marking student's work and came across Jazz FM. They played " The Sea". I liked. I then dug a little deeper and found this !Boy !This resonates with me at the moment. In 6 weeks I retire from work. I've been a teacher for 30 years. I've loved my job with a will but its ground me down and there's a lot of life I've missed due to my commitment to work.. I need to reconnect to my family and be me. " And the night that you got locked in was the time to decide. Stop chasing shadows... Just enjoy the ride"

How did I just discover this beautiful piece just about now? :(

Don't know what I like more about this song, the lyrics, the haunting Tzuke vocal virtuosity or the guitar. Best song ever. Can't stop listening. Love the vid too!

This music is pure joy... My outlook to life changes when I listen to Morcheeba :)

My favorite Morcheeba song. Gorgeous!

With the moonlight to guide you Feel the joy of being alive The day that you stop running Is the day that you arrive And the night that you got locked in Was the time to decide Stop chasing shadows Just enjoy the ride

Oh my, I've never felt something like that before. Turns out I saved this song to a playlist and I just rediscovered this, I remember hearing this song somewhere then saving but I can't remember where. It makes me feel so nostalgic, I feel like some memories come to mind but I can't remember anything

Once, when I was a kid, I saw this clip on tv. Since that moment this song is the Manifest of my life.

2022 Aug on a breezy evening by the beach, man of my life makes me listen to this song. In the dim moonlight I remember him gazing at me with love.

this song causes a strange sensation in me. nostalgic, tears, hope, joy

This song is absolutely beautiful. I love her voice.

I'm an old guy, and I only just heard this today. What a magnificent song and message!

2024 still killin it

this is my soul music...and after years of watching this video, I finally understood its meaning.. don´t chase shadows ..don´t fight the past..just go along with it and ejoy the ride ... priceless

Love this song. The Best. Enjoy the ride everybody.

A favorite for many years. The vocals take me on the same trip as the cartoon :-)

Absolutely amazing song.. really puts things in perspective.. wonderful/ I could listen to this ALL DAY and not get tired if it.

10 years ago,2007. My life was obssessed by morcheeba's music. I always thought about morcheeba. 'how can i compose like mcb?', 'How can I play a guitar like R. Godfrey?' etc. In nowaday, my life was obssessed by estimate and trade receipt. I need u morcheeba.

Amazing Song !! Amazing Video! the song was always close to my heart but now after the video, it has placed itself into my soul

The first time I heard this was on an album when I was in Dubai.... (Dubai fashion house) long story-short, the deeper I dug; this song is something I connect with so much, omg what a joy 🙌🏻💃🏼

I first heard this song on the aeroplane coming home from a year away working and travelling. The beautiful lyrics and melody were spell-binding, alleviating my feelings of loss and fears about starting again. Whenever I listen to it i'm immediately comforted and happy again :)

OMG,,,,LOVE THIS GROUP MORE SO LOVE THIS SONG,,,JUST ENJOY THE RIDE! Brilliant

Heard it first in Romania in Bukarest during a pickup and I remember the young lady who I asked for this song. Miss her ...

Such a beautiful song! Beautiful voice! Perfect.

Morcheeba is a tasy whisp of magic
