  • a nice nice relaxing song

  • i love it!

  • Takes me back to The Eclipse in Coventry. A Classic.

  • I still to this day, don't know how Orbital manages to fill a room with the accoustic depth of songs like this. It's other-worldly.

  • @509sk8ers don't get me wrong I love this track... but they are many other tunes that are upthere with it... a lot of classic music to begin with.... then a lot detroit bizness.

  • 5 people obviously haven't got a f***ing clue about music...

  • @SickRobotTV make that six r kid;)

  • bliss

  • But you are quite prepared to mock my opinion, thinking that yours is correct. Makes you somewhat of a hypocrite. Just re read your posts, you make yourself look so silly.

    So 25 other morons agree with you, well done for you, you are accepted by the online community.

    I bet that makes you feel big and clever.

  • Comedown.

    Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss­s

  • @MrCorgiReg EXACTLY! Like leaving Alan Davis Beach at 6am after another epic beach party, heading to work and slipping on the headphones while you reminisce about all of the beauty you encountered that night. (Wow, just got really a sentimental feeling there for a minute)

  • does anyone know why they called it belfast?

  • the story goes that its named because of a club in Belfast called Shine, which if I'm not mistaken is still running. I think Orbital were there and were impressed at the house music scene bridging the religious divide in Northern Ireland and bringin ghte two communities together. If the song evokes one thing its peace and coming together, which I think is pretty apt in the context of that club

  • its not really designed for dancing to though I have witnessed many who have done so as the sun rises over the med in the ealry hours after raving all night :):) great electronica

  • HUMAN TRAFFIC!! wota fuckin film people. wota fuckin film!

  • @AcidJordan

    Honestly?

  • @AcidJordan more then u can fuckin imagin my friend, more then u can imagin........

  • @AcidJordan Hell yeah and this track used in the perfect place in the film too!

  • @AcidJordan its a better piece of music than the film ever was, you FAIL

    To even say it in the same breath makes you ghey

  • @orsonkarte 25 people agree with me so suck my cock or take your nasty internet tone somewhere else. you FAIL

  • @orsonkarte actually while im online. if you saw the film and didnt get it then i am sorry for you, i really am. that might go some way into explaining why you feel the need to go on the internet to tell poeple they FAIL or that they're "ghey". mate you sound like a total fuckin loser so kiss my arse.

  • @AcidJordan

    nice one buva

  • @AcidJordan

    nice one brova

  • @AcidJordan Human Traffic is an insult to this brilliant tune. Sorry to have to tell you that:)

  • @AcidJordan Sums up a tremendous feeling. Still i like my personal association with this album , track(eye) opener :).

  • @AcidJordan what a film

  • Comment removed

  • i love this track , but was this also on a compalation of rave athems , im looking to find a song on that cd , whats the name any know it had a s0ng from earthleakage too thats all i remember\

  • @davidzimmerman100 Kaos Theory? That featured The Ice Cream Van From Hell by Earth Leakage Trip.

  • Epic nostalgic track for me. Brings back sunrise twilight drive home from raves back in the day and default track for early morning drives on a road trip.

  • wow,what a tune.

    i love orbital...

  • @chvolk Same here brother....Same here...

    its just the same as in the movie.

    the perfect number after a crazy night out, riding back home ending the weekend.

  • ♥

  • Oh, btw thank you for posting this, Orbital is my medicine.

  • It doesn't get any better than this.

  • driving home ... human traffic..... ^_^

  • Fucking tune!!!!!!

  • This song was written by orbital as they drove through the streets of Belfast at about 6am looking for a party with David Holmes after playing at the Art College , I was there that night.....

  • frm a student film called . LOVED - UP a must se and must listen film :)

  • i saw them at global gathering this year and they i was far to fucked from night before and this was last track i can remember hearing before i fell into a far to mashed coma lol! awesome last memory of the festival, fuck knows what happened after that lol!

  • Human traffic.

  • superb song!

  • i'm told the opera singer sampled in this wonderful track is a certain Lisa Gerard. Check her out...........she's wonderful. Orbital only chose the best.

  • The bit where you're till intense, where you're still nodding your head, where you're still grinding your teeth, where you still think you want hardcore, where you still feel this is hardcore..................

    But it's not. It's beautiful............and you're closer to Earth than you want to be.

    Fucking magic.

  • Actually, it's Hildegaard of Bingen's song 'O Euchari'. It was sampled in The Beloved's 'The Sun Rising'. Both particular samples were sung by Emily Van Evera but is still based around von Bingen's original.

  • i stand, actually i sit corrected. whoever it is it's beautifully melodic

  • Comment removed

  • omggg acapellonnnnnnnnnn!!!!

  • love it

  • couldnt agree more, possibly the most beautiful record ever.

    And to make people a little bit more jealous, I have this on original 12inch :)

    the 3 track ep with satan and lc1.

    amazing song.

  • Yes it is beautiful song.........

    If I were to tell you the role this track played in my youth into adulthood years you wouldn't believe me........

    But check out "Now we are free" by Lisa Gerard, or Dietra Casa by Ludovico Einaudi...........breathtaking­!!

  • Reminds me of Dreams to Dreams by Linda Ronstadt... do you agree?

  • ehh no!!

  • xD you didn't even listen before you said that did you? listen to the fievel goes west version of dreams to dreams. that song and this song would do well in a compilation together.

  • listened to the first min or so..........obviously not enough. will give it a listen again when i've time..........better be worth it!!

  • hahah uhhh, All I said was reminds me of dreams to dreams by linda ronstadt and that they'd do well in a compilation together. I didn't say it sounds like it anyway. I don't know what you're getting at by this whole better be worth it thing but you seem like a little kid. xD

  • and you seem like an old sheep shaggin farmer from devon that has a fascination with cheese, coz linda ronsdat is pure mozzarella....................­..ape!
