What a beautiful song. A throwback to when mainstream pop music was actually worth listening to. Soulful voice, meaningful lyrics and a wonderful video. A quarter of a century on and it still sounds fresh.
I can count on one hand how many mainstream pop artists of this year that were actually worth listening to. Mind you, that's still massively better than today.
This song ... In the top five of my lifetime faves. Was living with a roommate in the nineties that loved this song. He passed away way too early a few years ago and this song brings me back to his presence. Rest peacefully my dear friend.
For me it's a different song but a similar story. My friend passed away from a totally surprising stroke just a few weeks after I heard that song for the first time at her house and totally loved it. Everytime I hear it know it reminds me of her. The almost funny thing about it: The song I'm talking about is: "I Will Remember" by Toto. Some things in life are just incredibly strange. All the best to you and may your friend rest in peace.
I remember my mum saying when I was 2 years old I was obsessed with this song and danced around to it. She's passed away 6 years now but amazing how I remembered her saying this and still love it. My 2 year old self sure had some good music taste
@CharlesMichaelSidwell same but i still havent worked what its about after all these year's. Probably something very powerful and emotive cos i keep coming back for more. 👍
This song holds a special place in my heart as it transports me back to the vibrant era of the 90s, where dreams were boundless and possibilities seemed endless. Its nostalgic melody and evocative lyrics never fail to send chills down my spine, stirring up memories of the plans and aspirations I held dear during that time. Each note is like a time machine, whisking me away to a time of innocence, passion, and boundless optimism. Listening to this song is like revisiting a chapter of my life filled with hope, ambition, and the unwavering belief that anything was possible. It's a reminder of the journey I've taken and the dreams I still cherish, serving as both a tribute to the past and an inspiration for the future.
On this day in Music - 17 Oct 1992 Tasmin Archers debut single 'Sleeping Satellite' was at No.1 in the UK, the English singer, songwriters only No.1. Archer wrote the song in the late 1980s about the moon landings in 1969, but it was only when Archer got a record deal that the song saw the light of day.
I've recently listened to this song in the radio after a really long time, I looked it up here and I found it. Great song that I remember listening when I was a child. BLESSING TO ALL OF YOU!
@@alfonsomartin6502 ok, tell me about conquistadores. What they did at South America with indians? How many people was killed? USA tell to the world that this guy bad this guy bad, but really bad guy is USA, how many people killed how many countries destroyed... Nato, west want to take Russian oil, gas, and other. Remember general Franco is not good guy, Hitler, Mussolini, too. At Ukraine many people like nazi ideology... This way is not good
У меня был друг,умер он уже,как он любил эту песню. Это было в начале 90-х,когда она появилась.С тех пор и мне понравилась.Её ещё Ким Уайлд поёт,но не то конечно,но тоже неплохо помоему.
@@Грозныйгород-Герой Царствие небесное твоему другу. Хороший вкус у него в музыке. А эту вторую я посмотрел и послушал, ну так себе. Тасмин лучше, не правда ли?!
Это были шедеврально созданные композиции! Это время такое! Мы ещё долго будем вспоминать все что связанно с этим периодом... А то что сейчас ,это треки однодневки!
I wonder what happened with this singer, what a great song!!!! It was like 30 years than I don't heard it......thank you for bringing me back to those days!!! ❤
I blame you for the moonlit sky And the dream that died With the eagles' flights I blame you for the moonlit nights When I wonder why Are the seas still dry Don't blame this sleeping satellite Did we fly to the moon too soon? Did we squander the chance? In the rush of the race The reason we chase is lost in romance And still we try To justify the waste For a taste of man's greatest adventure I blame you for the moonlit sky And the dream that died With the eagles' flights I blame you for the moonlit nights When I wonder why Are the seas still dry Don't blame this sleeping satellite Have we got what it takes to advance? Have we peaked too soon? If the world is so great Then why does it scream under a blue moon? We wonder why If the earth's sacrificed For the price of its greatest treasure I blame you for the moonlit sky And the dream that died With the eagles' flights I blame you for the moonlit nights When I wonder why Are the seas still dry Don't blame this sleeping satellite And when we shoot for the stars What a giant step Have we got what it takes To carry the weight of this concept? Or pass it by Like a shot in the dark Miss the mark with a sense of adventure I blame you sleeping satellite I blame you for the moonlit sky And the dream that died With the eagles' flights I blame you for the moonlit nights When I wonder why Are the seas still dry Don't blame this sleeping satellite Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Yo también tenía 16 cuando la escuché por primera vez. Era estudiante de nivel bachillerato. La grabé del radio con una grabadora y repetía el cassette tantas veces .. Qué tiempos aquellos!!!
Back in the days I used to go for a drive at 1-2am and this song would come on every time…it takes me back 😊 it made my lonely drives better and memorable
One of the best songs of 1992, shame that she didn't become a major international star after this one. Great soulful vocals, which remind me a bit of Kiki Dee. I reckon Tasmin and Kiki should record together. :)
This song evokes a very special memory. One day in '92, I was 21, I walked into this bar, and I heard this song for the first time and I loved it, immediately. And it is there, on the right, that I saw this girl, with long brown hair, my god, that she was beautiful. We’ve come a little way together
this song came to me in my dreams for two nights in a row and I know I have heard it a long time ago. It kept playing and playing in my head and now I found it here.. what a beautiful voice and lyrics. It is very rare for a song to truly touch you and this one does..
I can't believe this song is 20 years old now. I still own the 'single' cassette tape that I bought at 'Sam Goodys' in the old Sunrise Mall back on Long Island. This is a song that not enough people have heard and it's a real shame.
I remember this song. I remember hanging with my friends back in middle school and playing video games and listening to terrestrial radio. They played this song a lot. WOW, I'm old. Whatever happened to this girl? Such a beautiful voice.
Wow, what a great song and a wonderful singer! She hits the notes! No up and down pitch bobbling - just pure, super singing! Today's divas could learn a lot from this woman, she KNOWS how to sing! Thanks so much for posting.
This song went #1 on the Official UK charts and #32 on the US Hot 100 charts. It also hit the US Radio songs, Modern Rock, & Adult Contemporary charts.
You just love that at some point in the late 80s (1989-1991), there was a massive shift and return to acoustic sound. A breath of fresh air at the time, and let's be honest, you can relate much more to it ! This song is just amazing.
Esta canción debiese ser mucho mas conocida. Está muy infravalorada. Tiene una hernosa melodia, bellos arreglos, buena letra, gran mensaje, muy bien grabada y una excelente interpretación.

I imagine that if ancient philosophers had recording equipment, they would've made music like this. I know the meaning behind this song always went over my head until I was able to look it up on the internet, and then I was like, wow. I guarantee the reason she didn't continue to have the commercial success this song gave her is that her other songs are also about intelligent subjects that go beyond just, like, the common relationship stuff that always seems to be in the number 1 hits. She doesn't sing about trying to get laid or having $800,000 bracelets or that kind of stuff. She also did an amazing cover of Elvis Costello's "Shipbuilding" which hopefully is still around here on TH-cam somewhere.
I think it's ironic that this was my fav song at 11 , not really understanding the words, but it made my heart swell, and it just made me feel love, fast forward to this time ,wow makes perfect sense in a society were free thinking and conscious awareness is crucial 💙 ❤️

30 years now... still sounds the same fresh like in the 90s.
I wouldn't say this song was at all mainstream. I never heard it one time on the radio. Maybe it was mainstream in the U.K.? Not here in the U.S.

Because it's real music. Not this sampled shite that's in today's music. You'll find most music done on real instruments is timeless
Back in the days when music really was music. This has me in tears.

31 years have passed since the release of Tasmin Archer's sleeping satellite in 1992. the song has lost none of its freshness. thanks Tasmin.
❤❤❤
I think it's 31 years since I heard it, today it popped into my head ❤️
It's important we don't lose that wonder and spiritual feeling the song bring no matter how Technological lost we as humans become
This song popped up for me as well last year maybe in November. Fascinating.

Can't listen to this song without tearing up. The emotion of this song is overwhelming. Sounds like Heaven.
Amen!
These types of songs written about man, and all of our mistakes, always hit home.
Makes me emotional too❤

She's 60 now 😮

Y pensar que hay personas que nunca llegarán a escuchar canciones como ésta
La encontré x casualidad después de 30 años sin escuchar esta bella voz Tamy 😢
Es increible pero es asi . Hay gente que no aprecia la buena musica en ingles. La musica es universal
Y que les guste “cantantes” como bad bunny = una tragedia!
Дякую, шукала цю композицію із 1990-х. Тоді ще не було інтернету. Ця композиція була на аудіокасеті. Дякую за задоволення. З Богом 💖
На каком языке тут написал ?

Goosebumps! Crystal clear voice, brilliant song.
Just very simply, one of the BEST FKN SONGS ever written!
This one is for the ages!

there were so many great songs in the 90s, real gems like this one, these days everything is gone commercial. RIP good music

Love this song, listening now in 2024 👌
I've recently listened to this song in the radio after a really long time, I looked it up here and I found it. Great song that I remember listening when I was a child. BLESSING TO ALL OF YOU!
Can't get enough of this song, such a beautiful voice
I heard this in a 99 cents store of all places it brought a feeing of nostalgia
transports me back to the early 90s. a great time.

Es una de las obras de la musica mas hermosa que existe.

One of my favorite one-hit wonders!
Tasmin Archer was no One-Hit wonder. Everything she's done is brilliant. I especially like her version of Elvis Costello's Shipbuilding.
She's definitely not a one hit wonder. She only had one hit in America, which was crazy because her voice is one of a kind.
She has a new album coming out
😂😂one hit wonders 😂😂
I wonder what happened with this singer, what a great song!!!! It was like 30 years than I don't heard it......thank you for bringing me back to those days!!! ❤
Was her only big hit.
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles' flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Did we fly to the moon too soon?
Did we squander the chance?
In the rush of the race
The reason we chase is lost in romance
And still we try
To justify the waste
For a taste of man's greatest adventure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles' flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Have we got what it takes to advance?
Have we peaked too soon?
If the world is so great
Then why does it scream under a blue moon?
We wonder why
If the earth's sacrificed
For the price of its greatest treasure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles' flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
And when we shoot for the stars
What a giant step
Have we got what it takes
To carry the weight of this concept?
Or pass it by
Like a shot in the dark
Miss the mark with a sense of adventure
I blame you sleeping satellite
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles' flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Dziękuję za przetłumaczenie🤗
The words flight and night are singular not plural. Eg: night not nights.
Thanks for the lyrics
what rubbish lyrics
Прекрасный перевод❤❤❤❤
I was 16 when this song came out, living in Zurich. Now some decades later, her voice still gives me goosebumps. Amazing melody!!
Yo también tenía 16 cuando la escuché por primera vez. Era estudiante de nivel bachillerato. La grabé del radio con una grabadora y repetía el cassette tantas veces .. Qué tiempos aquellos!!!
Timeless……true music infused with talent and wisdom!
Pensare che questo capolavoro ha più di 30 anni,e nonostante tutto riascoltarla mi provoca sempre delle sensazioni uniche.....
Same reflecting on life in a good way and looking forward to future have a great day ✌🏻👍🏻💯🙏🏻
Im 60 years old.listen to this song every weekend and enjoy it so much.like a red wine.beautiful.....namibia..
Un très bon cru mais pas reconnu à sa juste valeur
I haven’t heard this song for 30 years…….WOWWWW.
It’s so beautiful and takes me right back. ❤
Her soothing voice.
Bring back the nostalgia of 90s.
miss the 90's !
Me too
Y yo lo mejor, pero hay qe abanzar😔
This is what we call a HIT! What a beautiful mellow voice!
Comment ai-je pu oublier cette chanson ? Ça me ramène des décennies en arrière. Souvenirs, souvenirs....
Il y avait de belles chansons dans les 90...dont celle là
Back in the days I used to go for a drive at 1-2am and this song would come on every time…it takes me back 😊 it made my lonely drives better and memorable
One of the best songs of 1992, shame that she didn't become a major international star after this one. Great soulful vocals, which remind me a bit of Kiki Dee. I reckon Tasmin and Kiki should record together. :)
1992? Jesus I was still shitting my nappys, 😂😂when this piece of magic was released what a tune though.
I love her voice. Perfect for this song.
Beyond compare. Every time I hear this song it takes me back to some great times, and I’m always stunned at how incredible it is, a real masterpiece.
If you're gonna have one hit - this is a good one to have: classic tune.
An absolute musical masterpiece. The tune, rhythm, lyrics and vibe. This song just does it!
When I hear this, I am transported back to 1990.
92
This song evokes a very special memory. One day in '92, I was 21, I walked into this bar, and I heard this song for the first time and I loved it, immediately. And it is there, on the right, that I saw this girl, with long brown hair, my god, that she was beautiful. We’ve come a little way together
Effectivement magnifique
"Whoa ho ho ho hoooooo!" That part of the song was always a favorite of mind! Beautiful CLASSIC song!!
Sin duda.
Perhaps the best pop-song ever. Its all about the voice, lyrics and the changes in the instrumental tones. To bad it is forgotten.....
I will never ever get bored of this classic song it's amazing and such a brilliant singer tasmin archer
Heard song the other day at Home Depot garden center. Hadn't heard this for many years!
I first heard Tasmin Archer sing this superlative melody when i was 8 years old more than 20 years ago, loved it then and love it now so much more...
Those were the days... when lyrics mattered. Beautiful! Absolutely masterpiece! ❤️
this song came to me in my dreams for two nights in a row and I know I have heard it a long time ago. It kept playing and playing in my head and now I found it here.. what a beautiful voice and lyrics. It is very rare for a song to truly touch you and this one does..
I have loved this song ever since it was released. Such talent that doesn’t exist in music now.
One song that I will never get tired of till my dying day. and then i.d probably sing it on the other side.
👍🏼
Estupenda cancion y la voz de la interpretre por demas sublime..en resumen un temazo inolvidable
I remember when I discover this song so many years ago. Still so great today. This woman is amazing 💖
How many are with me here in 2024?

Beautiful classic song from my old college years by beautiful Tasmin.

Such a beautiful song, my 13 year old went what's this ancient music? Now she's playing it on repeat lol!!!!
One of the best songs in years! Plain and simple! *cheers*

Люди стареют,умирают,а музыка ,кино,вечно молоды.

Heard this when it came out and heard it many times after but never knew what Tasmin Archer looked like. Good to put a face to the song.

A beautiful song from a beautiful young woman. So soulful!!
Best song I ever heard .
It is ;)
YES , DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER!
AMAZING! AWESOME! GREATER, THIS IS THE BEST SONG FOREVER

Excelente temazo. Una gran interpretación. La música de esa época será para siempre.
This song went #1 on the Official UK charts and #32 on the US Hot 100 charts. It also hit the US Radio songs, Modern Rock, & Adult Contemporary charts.
Have no idea why the US has so many vague charts. What on earth is "modern rock" for one???
There’s a live version and she sounds fantastic, on point! Perfection.
