  • got this song on a sampler and i liked rightaway amazin

  • wow i remember this band!! great drums as i remember....'

  • Hands down my favorite song from hum.... focking amazing song.... BRING ME FAITHFULL BACK TO YOU....... Very cool hum still gets love..

  • Was this really the video for this song?

  • I love how they relate to everyday situations on such a personal passionate level with lovely instrumentals. Truly a band worthy of praise.

  • This is truly one of the best albums i've ever owned i'm so glad i was a teenager when this came out. this is music that has heart the shit now a daprops to ya ys is all about the money and "catchy" est beat. this is what music is about feelings and jammin out and feeling the music. HUM was discovered by people who actully understood music an what it was about. HUM thank you for such great memories and helping me through times sadness, 4ever in your debt. much respect!!!

  • One of the greatest bands to come out of the 90s. Amazing musicians, too bad they never really got the recognition they deserve.

  • @xXJILX0XJILXx You're a fucking idiot.

  • And she don't hoooold me right she's never gonna get me there.....not tonight

  • FUCK YEA!

    

  • this is my all time fave hum song! god it takes me back as well!

  • I saw them live at a free outdoor show. About ten thousand people showed up. They sounded just as trippy as the record.  Befor that I heard their 'Stars' song on the radio and took a chance and bought the Yould Prefer an Astronaught record. It was all I listened to for weeks.

  • i have always loved this....the words are so awesomely written..makes you think in a different perspective..hell yeah!

  • Wow, this really takes me back to when I was just 16, when I was just discovering boys and what they did to my mind...when all I did was argue with my parents which made sneaking out every night a nice adrenaline rush...very young and very stupid. haha. So listening to this with my headphones on, in my bed at night seemed to be the answer to my melancholic state. It was a memorable chapter in my life.

  • @jen0000 daaaaaaaaaaamn you just struck a chord, and i'm only 18....... good times, 15-17

  • @jen0000 way to put it bro. I miss those days!!!

  • @jen0000 We're probably really close in age, because what you wrote perfectly describes-if you switch boys for girls-what this album meant to me back in the day...along with Siamese Dream and a few other standouts, but yeah, sad to think about those crazy times and how everything was so new and interesting, and now life has just become all too real. But hey, at least I'm still single and living it up the best I know how. Most of my friends are married with children...I think I'll wait on that.

  • @mphurwitz right on man. gotta live it up while u still willing and able.

  • HUM are huge in my influences.

  • @bakedzale - Say, "HUM is a great influence to me", and I'll agree with you.

  • ya ..what about Honcho Overload..now that's a rock n roll band....

  • i heard this song and i looked for the tabs and this song is really easy (depending on how long u been playing) its really easy and so is alot of thier songs so u guitar players check it out

  • @tornadogeddon Wow if you actually played this instead of just looking it up you would realize this is hard! So you aren't really a guitar player.....just saying! ha

  • @modmat fuck off kid this song is easy as shit maybe u fucking suck u cum suckin little bitch and ive been playin for 7 years so go fuck ur mother

  • @tornadogeddon I've been playing for 15 years, and there are 6 guitar tracks on this song, at least 6...so which one is it that is sooo easy to play? You don't know shit really...do you now?

  • @modmat dude why dont u hop off my fucking cock ill post a fucking video of me to prove ur fucking bitch ass wrong

  • You'd Prefer an Astronaut is one of the best albums ever. I'm proud to be one of the few people that have heard of them.

  • when this band hits, its like a beautiful shin kick to the face! thanks for posting this!!

  • if she don't hold me right she's never get me there.. not tonight... ahhh... the way matt sings it... explicably beautiful..

  • I was sitting here today and for some reason that killer riff from stars popped in my head. so i listened to it after 10 years of not hearing its awesomeness and decided i wanted to hear more. i am now kicking myself in the ass for not following these guys back in the 90's. they have so much other stuff thats just as killer. this song proves it. \m/

  • I commit suicide to this...wait, I will commit suicide to this. Fuck me, right?

  • @dasjerkstore live man

  • you just made me laugh at loud. thank you for the ending sentence. hope your day goes well.

  • @dasjerkstore

    Ha, that was awesome...

  • Regardless of the MTV airplay, this is the single most underrated album of the 90's. Front to back, it's a masterpiece. No one sounded like them and no one has tried since, because they cant.

  • i'd say downward is heavenward is even more underappreciated. what a shame.

  • @hampsterman22

    Yeah man, all the HUM albums are great but DIH feels more broad than the others IMO

  • @heathy91 I'm with you, You'd Prefer... was my first HUM experience and I didn't think they could top it, but DIH is a more mature sound, and you can tell they had grown as a band and as musicians. Have you heard Electra 2000?

  • I gave you a thumbs up, because you're right in the underratedness of this record, however, Failure sounds just like Hum.

    Not better, mind you, in fact nowhere close, but the bands are very similar and started recording at the same time.

  • @diedahero Failure is like Hums retarded little brother... they kinda look alike, but they aren't.

  • @robertmiller oh, agreed, I was just saying there were other bands that sounded like Hum's whole "Space Rock" trip. In fact there were several. Like I said in the post, they're not better than HUM, in fact, nowhere close, but they do have the same peddle hopping, choked/strangled cords of the same genre.

  • @diedahero true that hah

  • "Not tonight..."

  • This is rock and roll man... no sub genres here. This is just great music.

  • oh yes definately one of the best songs of all time - the whole astronaut album is a masterpiece

  • buy there albums amazing work

  • dude ...

    how can the sign band of space rock ...

    and one important psicodelic rock band ...

    can be so .... lost

    kind of ... the are splied .... no rejoin plans ... and if they do so .... they will get comercial .... and they are faded by the shadow of modest mouse and other space rock bands .... hum is the only band 100% dedicated to space rock ...

    and theeey are awasomeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    long live to hum ... or his legacy ...

  • wait , with the proper ' influences' , this is the actually a music video . Just got the effect , lmao , thanks for the upload .

  • Yo tenía 15 o 16 años cuando la escuchaba y la escuchaba. El video no es necesario, mi vida de adolescente es el video. Thank's for this.

  • I appecriate the song online, but please do not call this a "music video".

  • My best song ever -.-" u suck

  • Hum = the most underrated band of the 90's-2009

  • @sonofthestork

    agreed.

  • @sonofthestork You can tell that they weren't the kind of band ready for mad competition and bullshit. They just enjoy making music because of their passion,. This album is true passion and vulnerability. Love it

  • best song ever.

  • Fuck....I may have missed my only chance to ever see these guys. Sure wish I could have seen them back in december.

  • hum kicks so much ass its almost fuckin scary

  • I KNOW right? This band is the shit

  • awesome, and they got better with each album

  • a big greet to all of you HUM lovers ! motobvious, i agree with you totally!

  • Hum was a great band that established a unique guitar-tone. It reminds me of what the Pumpkins were doing back in the Siamese Dream days. When you heard a riff from Siamese Dream, you KNEW it was the Pumpkins. Hum was the same way. The tones they used are unique and brilliant.

  • oh, man, I agree, and your example is really good, I love Smashing Pumpkins too but don't feel the same with their post-mellon collie albums, well, maybe with some few tracks in Machina.

  • i was a proper hip hop head when i was young. this is the only band that made me apreciate guitar music. thats how special they were..

  • lol "Guitar music". Hip hop can only do so much until you grow up.

  • Best band of the 90's

  • thanrs for HUM! great song.

  • I need you to share the view...such and awesome song....brings me back!

  • hum ,,,i too can listen to this band evryday.!!!

    I wish they made a tour again.

  • HUM is fucking great and i agree. they did not get the attention they deserved. They are a great band.

  • I can listen to this song over and over again. Amazing. They definitely didn't get as much attention as they deserved, back in the day.

  • an extremly underrated band. My fav Hum song.

  • i love this song...thx for posting

  • hell yes...bad ass song...ill post a how to play video of this song for guitar in a few days. along, with, stars, id like your hair long, green to me, and maybe a few more....keep a look out!!

  • IF YOU LIKE THESE GUYS CHECK out Orangutang -Dead Sailor Blues-

    HUM rules!!!!

  • Ty Ty Ty Ty Ty x infinity = I m every happy drunk person... :)~ Favorite song on the album , by any artist, (best damn song I have ever seen/heard live "anywhere" 95' Lollapolooza Dallas)

  • i love this band!
