It's amazing that you think back on someone like Royston Langdon and you remember this huge rock STAR. He was part of this huge machine, Spacehog. Lost in all of the fame and fluff. It is easy to miss what an amazing individual artist and musician that he is. That is why I love finding these videos. What a gem. Thank you Mr. Langdon!
What I like about him and this song is that it is not about the fame. It's about the song, a song of hope and love. Reminds a bit of seeing Colin Haye and how he brings "Overkill" to the world. So, Roy is also about the song, the message. Bravo.
Another amazing performance by Royston Langdon. One the best songs of the 1990's. Incredible voice and song! I with Rick Beato would do a breakdown of this song, this band deserves it and more.
the song's taking the tone of some monumental galactic message to the human race, a calming, peace-bringing signal from a benevolent race that says "We'll meet you eventually when you're ready, and there are amazing things to share between the stars, but in the meantime..." Given the band's name and its debts to glamrock and predecessors who dealt with big ideas in their music, it seems that's as likely an explanation as any. Particularly the build-up leading to the end of the song, where the vocals get more intense and we hear "...we're just like you, just like you, just like you...we're just like YOU..." as the song ends. I think the chorus could be the central message to the human race: We love the all the all of you Where lands are green and skies are blue When all in all we're just like you We love the all of you From other sentient beings who think it's amazing and wonderful that there's other intelligent life between the long dark expanses of space.
I remember working in recording studios down in SoHo when these guys were big. One of them was dating this girl Sophie who worked at Greene Street recording. They were the absolute epitome of cool in the downtown scene back then

And he got to shag the lead singer of Aerosmiths daughter. What a legend!

Man one of the most underrated lead singers ever. His bass playing is a different story… he shoulda have been named one of the greatest ever.
Settle down mate
@@gmcd2816nah his bass playing is absolutely spectacular!
Love this version. Really shows off the melancholy better than the og version I think.

What a great performance! Such a great feel!
This was such a great album
It’s good to hear this. Spacehog has it you just gotta listen…..fan since 96
Thank you for sharing your voice and your message. 🤟
Love his voice amazing band
Most of the time, lead singers will lose their voice but Royston still got it!! Love this acoustic version! It changes the way you feel the song❤
His voice sounds amazing
I’m pretty obsessed with this acoustic arrangement. ❤️ This song takes me back to my senior year.
Best generation for music.
was really hoping he'd swivel around and play the the little piano outro...I love that part.
Is the James Gunn inspiration version for guardians?
Great version of his greatest song.
What a frontman.
NICE !
Perfect job Royston

You watch the music video from 1994 and then watch this 25 year's later.
One of those voices you hear and just know who it is....no guessing....
Love the all of you!
awesome version
Amazing song 🔥
Somehow turned a post grunge classic into contemporary. Not easy. And what a range
Beautiful.
Love the all of you too 🤘🏼
This song was so killer.
Amazing!!!!!
Mind blown. Genius
hmm, he's a better singer than I thought, he should do covers of alternative songs
Just remember, he had Liv Tyler once upon a time…the thing they call divine
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
wow! really cool version
Awesome voice...better than on MTV! 😆
Space Hog rocks the Kosmos Eternum!
Royston has a great voice... This reminds me a lot David Mcalmont from the same time period who did a couple of albums with Bernard Butler.

Get ready Royston, when i win the lotto you are playing for me
This is what I want to hear after a night of binge drinking, soft. The night before or right now turn up the original to an 11
Gimme a break. People still get drunk? It's 2023, give it a rest.
Nothing remains the same
i don't believe in miracles
or life alone
That dude is great. But don’t tell him.

This honestly looks and sounds like Jack Black doing a parody of an acoustic coffee bar performer.
Yup..or..worse
When did Seth Rogan start doing Spacehog covers?
lol... not even close.
I want more
...comments!
and lose the Leeds thing
it ain't like that
No No No...this BASS makes this song! Without that bass line, FORGET IT!!
Creepiest beginning to a song ever.
Amazing!
