One of my favourite Hooverphonic-songs. Fans should order the "Hoovephonic with Orchestra Live" CD + DVD-combo. Only available for a limited time. Check Amazon or Ebay.

Again, loads of stuff to try on Spotify for free before spending.  Works for me every time and no more duff CD's in my collection with one decent track.

I LOVE STEREOPHONIC SOUND.

Thanks goes out to, Western Electric, Bell Labs and all the HI-Fi greats of the 50's

Yes, there are definite hints of Massive Attack in the swirling background electronics. Very nice!
Oh, I just caught all those voices at the end.... Oh dear, my rating's going down... Pity!

Listening to SOMA  FM's "Groove Salad" program a good bit, I guess I am used to such noises and voices interjected in songs - electronic, down-tempo chill, etc.  S'OK with me, but coulda been left out and this song wouldn't have suffered.

 
OMG!  I love SOMA's Groove Salad — been ages since I've tuned into that.  They do have this genre nailed down.  Great songs / bands I've discovered on there.  Chill is my fave.  {#Mrgreen}

I always enjoy their stuff!  And you suggest, derek, that they are similar to Massive Attack???  I will check it out and see.

"Blue Wonder Power Milk" is excellent.  I think you can still sample the tunes on Amazon to check it out.

Maybe it's cheating to get a best-of, but their "Singles" compilation is a stunner.  Not a weak track on it.

Yes, that's a problem with some other songs on the album too, an overuse of voice samples.

okay Bill, thanks ...my ears have almost recovered from the nasty jazz-attack earlier. I don't need to be dead, though! (hey, you can't please all of the people all of the time, can you)?

I'd like this song better if they hadn't filtered out every frequency below 200Hz. The bass drum sounds so hollow.

Below is my favorite Hooverphonic song. It goes out to the girl I pined over for six years, and lost when I told her how I felt in Central Park...

Thank God i found someone so wonderful now.

Out of Sight:

Tell me why
Do you always forgive the things I do to you
You're too good
Or am I not too bad
Those six years
Were the best that ever happened to me and you
No regrets after all this fear
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
So tell me why
I can't find any satisfaction somewhere else
Not good enough
Or am I way too bad
Cause those six years
I consumed all your energy
And I didn't replace
Sad enough
I can't give you what you need
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
Six years
Such a long time
I can't give you what you need
Six years
Such a long time
Something special between you and me
You and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
