the chorus here is one of the catchiest written. It kind of altered the trajectory of my life the first time i heard it in 1996 while in college. i dropped out of college and pursued a career in music. i managed to get my name on a few dance/electronic records in 2000-2001 doing production work and bass playing. never had a big break but i did try.
I hope you are doing well in these times. 2000 to 2001 is when my life also took a turn. I never sought fame and certainly never achieved it but I'm doing ok for myself in light of the things that happened.
@@grumblekin at the end of the day as long as you are content, happy and healthy, that is all that matters. i beat myself up for awhile when my music didnt work out like i wanted and the reality of life started to set in (that i need to find a career and get used to the idea of working everyday). looking back, i wouldnt trade the experience, the friendships i made, and the lessons learned.

Thanks for uploading the instrumental versions! You really discover stuff you didn't hear before, like the violins playing exactly what Jay sings during the second chorus (obviously inaudible with the overdubbed vocals). Oh, and who would've thought that there's actually a hidden guitar solo at 05:29 in the last chorus too. Really awesome!
Thank GOD! Thanks for responding to my message :). I'm glad he's going back to the style he's seemingly mastered. I guess it's too much to ask the former bassist Stu to come back, huh?

I kinda agree w/ you. Although EMERGENCY ON PLANET EARTH was a very great album, as well as the track, "Too Young To Die", I'd have to say THE RETURN OF THE SPACE COWBOY was a far more superior (and perhaps THE ABSOLUTE BEST) album, as well as the title track, "Space Cowboy", Jamiroquai has ever made.

Si ioio
0:51 & 1:15 sounds is my favorite sound.
A little beat to hold for rocckn’roll, still like and moove on this tune !
crazy i haven't heaerd this sampled in a rap beat
me encanta!!
Because is the Album Version of too young too die(instrumental)
Thanks for this! The lyrics for this song are so weak, besides the melody and JK´s pitch, that are good!
Acid jazz....
1:15 My favourite!
Makes me remember the good times of Spyro Gyra.
@Pol74698 Yes i have it! it's an amazing version, it's on youtube!
I like the instrumental- reminds me of Rod Temperton's work.
yes, I wanted to say Mizell brothers, but I think Temperton is more accurate. Almost like a new songs without him singing
Damn right!
Adorei, mas eu sou suspeita para falar. Para mim Jamiroquai é bom de qualquer jeito, seja com voz ou instrumental, eu amo!
1:17 and 2:31 Favorite parts
Da da da da da da da da da da
its the theme song from razi barkai show in radio israel
1:15
בק בק בק
Elfstedentocht NOS jaaroverzicht 1997 bought me here.
Where can i find many jamiroquai instrumentals?
I kinda agree w/ you. Although EMERGENCY ON PLANET EARTH was a very great album, as well as the track, "Too Young To Die", I'd have to say THE RETURN OF THE SPACE COWBOY was a far more superior (and perhaps THE ABSOLUTE BEST) album, as well as the title track, "Space Cowboy", Jamiroquai has ever made.
jay kay rocks (the singer)
@naza220 I know it's on youtube, I saw it. And I have also downloaded it. Is there an instrumental version of Virtual Insanity too?
The part at 3:56 is the best even though the track is great.
lol stuart zender :,)
Is there a website where I could get the instrumental version?
the hook from this comes from a crusaders song, dont know the title though.
Anyone have the full 10 minute version??
/watch?v=6uxzhzwQRDQ
You're welcome, mate :)
metallicarocks911 Lol good lookin out.
Quick question: does anyone know if they're coming back out again and WHEN they're coming back if they are??? Seriously, I LOVE this band!
@enzo321
I think I heard something about JK running out of cunning lyrics, I don't know...
probably coincides with him coming off the hard drugs
why is the instrumental longer than the orig song?
good instrumental tho
way too much groove
I do prefer the guitar sound of the single-version
@zensparkle2481
Never mind. Found it.
mmmmmm Never gets old...
Stuart Zender
God the bass sounds incredible
Horns @6:06.
