The intro has been my uncles ringtone since I can remember. He sadly passed away last week and this is going to be played at his funeral. Thank you inspiral carpets for creating something that I can forever remember him by.
robotmonkey his funeral was yesterday, the smiles on everyone’s faces when they heard it just makes it somewhat better. so blessed to have grown up in a home where music is being banged out at every given opportunity. music really is wonderful
I am from Moscow, and d like to say that I grew up listening to the inspiring, great British rock music of the 20th century( mainly progressive and psychodelic rock) . Without it my life would so poor. Some of the most significant days in my life were when i visited Roger Waters’s and Deep Purple concerts , when they were here in Moscow. This music can equally praise up to the sky and destruct us and that’s why it has always been so breathtaking. Thank you Great Britain for your culture, for your style, for your music and for dreamy, talented boys from your industrial cities , who had been creating some of the most beautiful non material heritage of our world
Zdravstvuyte, Ive seen Roger Waters a few times and although I like Pink Floyd,Waters solo material is without question the work of a musical genius, Amused to Death, Radio Chaos, Pro's and Con's of Hitchhiking, truly amazing works not only musically but also lyrically, nobody comes close to him as a writer, you have excellent taste my Russian friend, Proshchay, Cockenerob,
3rd September 2024. Sitting with my little boy watching this. It’s one of our favourite videos and songs. We get so much from this. I love watching the Inspirals with him. I hope that one day he will see this comment as he plays this video. Love ya Joshy x ❤
Holy sh*t!!! I finally found it. I have this melody humming in my head almost 30 years, but because of my bad english (I'm a spanish native speaker), couldn't understand the lyrics. Man, I'm happy!!
Darth KEK Agreed. Always loved the Inspirals for their keyboard sound. I used to buy their CDs from a little record shop in the Arndale Centre, Manchester. They used to have a load of Factory stuff as well. They had the flick books from the Blue Monday video. They let me hold it, but not buy it. Shame, would have loved one of them!
Yes, was going to say - the guy having so much fun on the drums at 0:11 , would eventually take his own life from the tinnitus caused by not wearing hearing protection at this time and the years ahead with the band - a lot of it simply from likely beating the hell out of his drums itself (as a guy who plays multiple instruments, the drums are _loud_ ). Lesson to people who don't want their own: avoid or _wear hearing protection_ if you know you'll be exposed to loud sounds. I myself have some earplugs that maintain the full audio spectrum from low to high, damn near perfectly, while reducing the volume of things 20 to 30 dB. It's amazing and they were like $18! They're listed under: Etymotic Research ER20XS High-Fidelity Earplugs (Concerts, Musicians, Airplanes, Motorcycles, Sensitivity and Universal Hearing Protection) On Amazon (which is where I got them from). Good luck everyone.
I keep mishearing the first line as "took a ride on a C64" and imagine someone attempting to mount the popular Commodore home computer. Cracking tune anyway!
Me too my friend, lol, I thought it was the commodore 64 and that it must be slang for some kinda vehicle 😂 Awesome song and lyrics "In the game of Inspirals you win or you win bigger."

1994 i was a heavy metal fan and saw this cassette tape on a shop bought it thought it was heavy metal because of the cover. since then started listening to alternative music till now
interplanetary gelatin its funny you say this...i was into punk/hardcore and heard the first album, "Life", when it came out in 1990.....properly changed my life....and opened up the world of Madchester to me :)
Alfie mares I totallious agree with you. But they dumped this singer to be replaced with the original singer before their fame a very bit naughty i say.
First saw the #InspiralCarpets at #EdinburghQueensHall on 3-NOV-1992, the day before starting my 1st ever job as Life Assurance Clerk for #LAS in Edinburgh. Aged 17 I was blown away by the energy and melodies of the ' inspirals ' and their dedicated hard-core fans. What a gig. Especially ' Joe ' Then saw them at #SheffieldLeadmilll in April 1993 - Sheffield was Radio One's #SoundCity and all the gigs were live on BBC radio.- supported by #Lemonheads and the fabulous #MollyHalfhead - me and my late friend #Wilx drove down to Sheffield from Edinburgh aged 18 in my #FordEscort - oh man, those were the days....picked up a Dutch ktchkhiker on way back to Haddington. Smoked some hash. Great gig and event. And #Saturn5 and #DevilHppping both great but Saturn5 is a choooon. Saw them 11 times in total #CoolAsFuck #Madchester #indie and i loved #thecharlatansand #thestoneroses too. It was s great time to be turning 18 #thanksforthememories 🤔🤔🤔😉😁😂🎵🎸👌💯👍✌️☮️☯️
listened to an interview with boon once. they asked him if he regretted not taking noel on. he said "no,it wasn't that noel wasn't talented he just didn't fit the carpets.if we'd have took noel on the inspirals might not have made it and also oasis wouldn't exist,so no, don't regret it"...,,.,.,.,,,spot on boon,legend.
At 3:23, I've driven by that part of the Houston Metropolitan a million times where all of the oil refineries are located on my way to Galveston to go fishing with my brother. That part of the Houston suburb is called Texas City and it is located between Houston and Galveston just off the shores of the Gulf of Mexico and it is one of the best places in the country to go fishing and crabbing! That scene brings back a lot of memories of my time living in Houston.
Its a funny thing, I hadn't seen this video in years, and watching it again was struck by the amount of Houston / Texas City in it. My wife is from the area (she grew up in the Woodlands) but I grew up half a continent away in suburban Toronto (Newmarket to be exact). All of this makes me think of exactly what you are describing- going to see her parents up in Conroe where they live now and driving down to Galveston for a couple days on the beach
I'm going to university in England now, but back home in California at my job I'd listen to Inspiral Carpets when I unpacked boxes at work. Every time this came on I'd love it, but get mundane flashbacks of opening cardboard boxes. Then I saw them live in Reading last month! Good God it was brilliant! Everyone went mad for this one! It was also a small club gig so we were all three feet from the band.
Last week, I walked into an obscure record shop in Bowness, had this song playing on the iPod as I walked in. Then what did I see almost immediately? A fucking Inspiral Carpets Greatest Hits signed... "Stay cool forever! C Boon" complete with a drawing of a cow smoking a joint. One of life's most freakish, and awesome coincidences! Needless to say I bought the fucker.
So sad. So fucking tragic and unjust to loose an amazing musician like Craig "Gilly" Gill so young. So talented, such an amazing beat to such an amazing band. Forever Inspirals, forever Gill, Walsh, Lambert, Boon and Hingley. All hail the men who will walk up in heaven today. That includes you Gilly. Off for a Party in the Sky 22/11/16
This as been my dads ringtone for a while, its been one of my favourite songs because the intro to it, it's just so iconic, well that's what I think, thank you Inspiral carpets for making this masterpiece
I remember watching this as a kid growing up, I want to say in Blue Peter of all things but I could be wrong. I always wanted to go to nasa after that. Finally got there this year in September and there was only one song that could be played on the driveway down to the entrance of nasa. Epic. Childhood dream accomplished
I love that. My 5 y/o he is obsessed with space travel. He loves this song as much as I do. And it’s on the playlist for when I eventually get to take him from the UK to the Kennedy SC.
50 years ago this evening I sat with my mum n dad for 24 hours watching the moon landing and walk. I was 3 and a half and still remember it clearly like it was yesterday.
Had the "cool as fuck " T shirt in my younger years.My mom would wash it but would never hang it on the line in case the neighbours saw it😅😅😅😅😅..Glorious days,Glorious music.
Most people who are from Manchester and know that scene will be aware CRAIG GILL used to take people on music tours around Manchester. Me and some mates went to Salford lads Club about six years ago and the tour guide said CRAIG GILL would have taken us on a tour in the Salford lads club that day but had another commitment that day unfortunately ,we had know idea he was doing tours like that so it would have been brilliant to have met him. I've seen inspiral carpets twice they were fantastic but it wouldn't have been the Same without CRAIG HE WAS A BROTHER TO ALL OF THEM AND THEM TO HIM AND ALL THOSE WHO KNEW HIM AND DIDN'T KNOW HIM .GREATER MAN WE WILL MISS YOU BUT WILL NEVER FORGET YOU

I remember seeing them in Prague in 1994. There was a Mute Records show with Miranda Sex Garden, Inspiral Carpets and Moby. The Carpets show ended with girls from the crowd filling the stage and dancing while the band played. It was spontaneous and funny. A great night. Sorry to hear their drummer had passed away

I can't help but get the feeling that this song helped inspire Noel Gallaghers Holy Mountain in the chorus
He roadied for the carpets

Verse]
Lady take a ride on a Zeke 64
Jerry wants to be a rockette
There's a popular misconception
Says we haven't seen anything yet
Laying down the lifeless corpse of President 35
The lady crying by his side is the most beautiful woman alive
[Chorus]
Saturn 5, you really were the greatest sight
Stretching out on a summer's day
Houston is calling me back to her
[Verse]
Lady take a ride on a Zeke 64
Jerry wants to be a rockette
There's a popular misconception
Says we haven't seen anything yet
Laying down the lifeless corpse of President 35
The lady crying by his side is the most beautiful woman alive
[Chorus 2]
Saturn 5, you really were the greatest sight
Stretching out on a summer's day
Houston is calling me back to her
An eagle lands, and the planet full of people raises its hands
All hail the men who will walk up in heaven today
[Bridge]
Monochrome TV, all the things you ever represented to me
Take me once more, take me to heaven again
[Chorus]
Saturn 5, you really were the greatest sight
Stretching out on a summer's day
Houston is calling me back to her
[Chorus]
Saturn 5, you really were the greatest sight
Stretching out on a summer's day
Houston is calling me back to her
I always thought it was C 64 as in a commadore 64 not zeke 64

Tom Hingley signed my scooter at a scooter rally, genuine and down to earth bloke too.
Catchy little ditty...always makes me smile...
Hope this makes Christmas number 1 for Craig RIP
One of the most underachieving songs ever. Should have easily made top spot.
Such a Booney Tune. The first CBX album is full of this amazeballs space stuff. Love it.
I'm here cos I had a mint day. And this was the first tune I heard. It set me right up. Gareth, neer do Weller, Bolton x
Wow, just brilliant!
I haven't heard this song for years!
It sounds like youth ❣
I used to listen to this song in the summer of 1994. Good times.
R.I.P Craig Gill. You will be missed
Great song
I remember seeing them in Prague in 1994. There was a Mute Records show with Miranda Sex Garden, Inspiral Carpets and Moby. The Carpets show ended with girls from the crowd filling the stage and dancing while the band played. It was spontaneous and funny. A great night. Sorry to hear their drummer had passed away
Absolute nostalgia at volume 11 in earbuds. My ears are gonna be ringing for hours. Inspirals rule!!
ive got tom hingley playing a gig for me next sat nite..cant wait !!
Tom hingley playing at the buffalo bar in paisley, Scotland. can't wait.
