I agree . As a young teen , my parents and an aunt and uncle loved this album. My parents had it on often while I didn’t understand it nor like it then , busy with nirvana , Metallica, Pearl Jam etc… hearing it now brings me to one of the greatest chapters of my life filled with family and friends which In return helped me to appreciate this unique , odd but beautifully crafted album .
Simple yet profound lyrics nicely sung over wonderful melodies and harmonies. Still love this album more than 30 years (and a disappeared hairline) later.
a lot of music diversity died by design in the early 2000's. Have a friend who was a sound engineer who quit by 2010 due to the shift in what producers were willing to back.
Brad Robert's is just an articulate funny awesome dude from what I've seen in interviews. I love this song, wish a video had been done for it. Great bass line, and so catchy. I just love this album and this song.
I was a teen all through the 90's and loved this band! Corny lyrics but that's actually partly why I liked them a lot. They were very different from anything else. They were fantastic musicians with wonderful harmonics.
Try an allegorical interpretation of the lyrics rather than a literal one and the lyrics won't be nearly as corny. I used to think they were corny until I got a deeper understanding of the artistic aspect of songwriting. It's very much poetry along with great music.
Unbelievable gig on 31st in Guildhall Derry City my favourite song can't believe youse played here was Unbelievable hopefully see youse again all the best with the tour!
When you go on camping trips you're stuck right out in nature Foraging the forests like a primate Using sharpened tools instead of hotplates Your thumb and forefinger supposed to show you're not a wild beast You can hear their noises at night time They don't have to keep a certain bedtime See in the shapes of my body Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys Sometimes when I lie awake I hear the rainfall on my tent fly I think of all the insects that are sleeping And wonder if the animals are dreaming See in the shapes of my body Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys In the days of the caveman and mammoths and glaciers Bugs and trees were your food then; no pajamas or doctors And when I finally get to sleep, I dream in technicolors I see creatures come back from the Ice Age Alive and being fed inside a zoo cage See in the shapes of my body Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys In the days of the caveman and mammoths and glaciers Bugs and trees were your food then; no pajamas or doctors
First heard this tune on the flintstones soundtrack cd. It was for the 90's live action one. I thought the movie was just okay but this song was killer!
3:11 unique and beautifully sweet.. I love that deep voice!❤ From Melanie
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this entire album. Brings back wonderful memories from a very happy time. Great the way music transports you back in time.

Great song from a great band....one of the best albums from the 90s... beautiful harmonies and background vocals
Times never come back for songs never be old
Whoever MIXED/Arranged This song,
Made Love with that
Mixing-board . .
Level perfection
This is one of the best-produced albums I have ever heard.
brings tears
One of the only albums I've bought 3 plus copies of. So great end to end
I took have very forms memories of this particular time in Maine! ♥️ Awesome group!
Maybe the 90’s were the last decade of musical creativity. There seemed to be enough room for everyone and anything.

I totally agree with you. The "music" they make today is vapid and not well thought out. There are exceptions of course.
This song reminds me how much I want to learn how to play bass. 🔥
Do it
You’re right. Do it! Light up the house. Light up the neighborhood! Play your music.
DEW IT!
One of my favourite songs with the awesome lyrics they are known for 👍😎🇦🇺
Beautiful song
ONE OF THE BEST CREATIONS EVER! this is an example of when the say "it was magic" .. dam right !
Brad Robert's is just an articulate funny awesome dude from what I've seen in interviews. I love this song, wish a video had been done for it. Great bass line, and so catchy. I just love this album and this song.
Meu Deus que emoção, procuro essa música a décadas 😮🙏
This is music!!!
Most melodic and poetic description of comparative anatomy ever (see in the shapes of my body, leftover parts from the apes and monkeys…)
I listened to this entire album on magic mushrooms once. It was the most beautiful thing ever
Mushrooms like any plant. A special substance from Nature’s God. Maybe a bit more special. 🙏🏼
Same and for real. The bass is killer throughout and the overall quality is top notch
I did the exact same thing for 3 hours of the 6 hour trip, the first 3 or so I listened to the Wall on loop.
Did you see creatures come back from the ice age, alive and being fed inside a zoo cage?
@@NoNo2Emo yes and I also wondered if the animals were dreaming
Grande banda. Sempre ouço incansavelmente.
I was a teen all through the 90's and loved this band! Corny lyrics but that's actually partly why I liked them a lot. They were very different from anything else. They were fantastic musicians with wonderful harmonics.
Corny & deep lyrics at the same time.
@@mikespearwood3914 i find their lyrics rather biting.

@@Brewha2345 their lyrics speak volumes in real life
The harmonies were my favourite parts
Absolute masterpiece and underrated fantastic album ❤
Unbelievable gig on 31st in Guildhall Derry City my favourite song can't believe youse played here was Unbelievable hopefully see youse again all the best with the tour!

You know this place. Vic.
I lived in Victoria British Columbia and worked at the Warf Side Eatery
What a song 👍
Cheeses and crackers! Now I'm wearing pajamas in the daytime...!
Gold times!!! Love this song!!!! Forever! ( from Belo Horizonte/ BRAZIL)
Awesome music ❤
Una genialidad. 🙋♂️🇺🇾
When you go on camping trips you're stuck right out in nature
Foraging the forests like a primate
Using sharpened tools instead of hotplates
Your thumb and forefinger supposed to show you're not a wild beast
You can hear their noises at night time
They don't have to keep a certain bedtime
See in the shapes of my body
Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys
Sometimes when I lie awake I hear the rainfall on my tent fly
I think of all the insects that are sleeping
And wonder if the animals are dreaming
See in the shapes of my body
Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys
In the days of the caveman and mammoths and glaciers
Bugs and trees were your food then; no pajamas or doctors
And when I finally get to sleep, I dream in technicolors
I see creatures come back from the Ice Age
Alive and being fed inside a zoo cage
See in the shapes of my body
Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys
In the days of the caveman and mammoths and glaciers
Bugs and trees were your food then; no pajamas or doctors
Awesome ❤️❤️

Gran álbum para disfrutar de principio a fin. Saludos desde España.
Favorite song during my anthropology course! 😂
love this song!!!
Сколько лет прошло...Сколько раз ее слышал...Сколько раз ее слышал и хочу слушать...Шедеврально...
Can someone tell me the keyboard sound used in the intro of the song, the long tones.? I hear this sound often from music from late 80s to mid 90s
High School Time.... Memories 🧠
THAT CHORUS
Yes!!!!! Love this new song!

My dad was a truck drive and we had this on a lot
Anton Chigurh can really sing.
Man, in Canada these guys were very well known. I don't think they broke the borders very much except for mmmm mmmm mmmm mmm.

This is my favourite song on the album and I had the pleasure of seeing it live yesterday! Child me is crying🥹
God I loved the 90's. What an album. I remember a gaj bringing in the Mmm single on tape and everyone gathered around him like he was the masiah.
