Beta Band - Squares (Astronaut Video) HD

[01joane]

Here because of Pitch Black Heist by Maclean with M. Fassbender. Didn't know them, very good band.

[artofpootan]

Btw, isn't the plot of this video better than Apollo 18?

[artofpootan]

I had no idea that Lupe Fiasco snatched this sample from Beta Band for Daydream!

[TheScottishbear]

I haven't heard this in like forever. Still one of my faves

[musicalrevo]

dam. you could describe those cosmonaughts as

*puts on sunglasses*

HOTSHOTS!

[YouthOobe]

kinda remind me of Dark Star. dunno why.

[fluidchangingworld]

I LOVE GNOOSIC. I've found so many incredible bands (including Beta Band) with gnoosic, if you don't know what it is google it.

[grinderman77]

Discovered this band through the magazine CMJ which came with a CD of the best unheard music. All from an era when the music still mattered.

[andrea111292]

I just discovered about them, and I think this song is extraordinary. Can't quite believe how they didn't make it to the top but I guess this goes straight into my favourites and hopefully one of their albums straight in my cd collection

[sorachi84]

安心しろ、こんなもん百年後誰も聴いていない。

[trippincat22]

Love The Aliens but come on.... Beta Band <3

[thisisrlynotmyname]

also, the Wallace Collection composition used a string bit from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake

[thisisrlynotmyname]

listen to Wallace Collection - Day Dream from 1969 to hear the original composition that Portishead, Tricky, Beta Band, I Monster, and Lupe Fiasco have all "borrowed"

[hot4warcriminals]

@thisisrlynotmyname Portishead and Tricky actually sampled a somewhat similar-sounding Isaac Hayes song.

[thisisrlynotmyname]

@hot4warcriminals and Hayes took that chord progression from Day Dream

[Liface]

Same sample as Lupe Fiasco - Daydreamin'

[6235river]

@Liface Yeah, the "fell asleep beneath the flowers" thing. :'D

[TheDiscoteeth]

The Beta Band are amazing and I miss them. I saw them twice and they were cool.

can somebody convince them to get back together?

[Philipperodrigues]

sounds a bit like "glory box" from Portishead

[M0onisapancake]

@Philipperodrigues And like "mad about you" from Hooverphonic

[neodog1]

i miss em a lot :(

[sorachi84]

彼らがロックに何をもたらしたか。答えは「NOTHING」

[sorachi84]

何がAwesome!だ　やはりベータおたは馬鹿ばかり

[sorachi84]

くだらねえバンド　糞　心配するな、歴史には残らん

[eezysqueezy]

@sorachi84 Awesome!

[blackrockcity]

I created a playlist of songs based on Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.

[rorythemilfhunter]

1:20 'i claim this shite fer scotland!' 

[jimmyzgames]

omg i recognise this song but i never knew it was beta until i saw this video

[boobsticles]

i fell asleep in the flowers for a couple of hours

[AnamDuine]

Every time I take a plane trip during the day, and look down at the patchwork of land borders I start thinking to myself... "still nobody cares, for miles and miles of squares".

[arelort]

I bet this guys agree with some "moonlanding conspirators"

[trijmandos]

good musik thats wazup

!

[starkdoulos]

This is a good song but the video works against it....borrrring

[arelort]

@starkdoulos i think it reveals a lot on how the moonlanding was faked, very interesting

[watergrafikFILM]

This PV is hommage to The Capricorn 1 (1977).

[KkYlAkI]

like the song, like the vid!!

[EliasMohr]

Wow, nice video.. About faking the first moon landing

[LT51]

Nothing in this video is even remotely similar to the first moon landing.

At 0:10 they take off in a space shuttle (first flight 1981) completely different then the space craft used in the first moon landing (1969). At 0:15 the date on their patches is 2001. In the video, four of them are walking on the moon but in the first moon landing it was only two. I could keep going but you get the point.

It's just a music video not a conspiracy theory douchebag. Go back to school.

[Waxthumper]

Why would they put 1969 on their patches and only have two in the video you twat? They don't have to be that dull and direct. It is just a music video, a tongue in cheek music video based on the idea that the moon landing was a hoax, the astronauts put in a simulator and dumped out on a set.. just like the video. What's to argue?.. it's a joke.

[Anopholes1]

lol

[Bramboterhamm]

@Waxthumper Thumbs up for you.

[EliasMohr]

wow, you are really an ass. I would respond, but its been done quite well by waxthumper.

[FreshAir911]

@LT51 hey maybe you could just shut the fuck up?

[InvisibleCollegeDO]

Grossly neglected by the masses in the States... I love these guys, and wish they'd go back for Just One More Session....

[JarodFilms]

Beta Band. Still the best live show I've ever seen.

[Dannyvirk]

I like the other video they did for this song better.

[ThePersonofComents]

olol.

I just noticed the guys running off the set when they turn on the lights.

[panicspreadwide]

sweet action!

[greenmagoos]

The BellComm Beta band on the moonset with their brains scrambled!

Haha.

[garleec]

I wish I could have been in the video walking on the moon. It looks fun with that cool tune.

Thank you man !.

[greenmagoos]

No probs g.

[ArtfulDodgerIndeed]

man I miss the Beta Band. The Aliens are alright, but I wish the whole group would get back together and make more music.

[06drew06]

it's the scottish flag with the portsmouth crest for richard greentree. But anyway, did they really think the NASA would send them into space, they looked quite shocked when they found out it wasn't real

[TheTMobileDance]

Try : I Monster - Daydream In Blue

[darksideofdarkness]

TMObileDance, it's well known that they use the same sample to make a song.

There were not copyright problems, they even released Squares as a single, but This happneded right after I Monster version was out of the charts...

[theleapingkumkwat]

love this song

[sonicjay007]

ahh miss them soo...

[Tellgy]

this is better than any other sample of daydream ive ever heard

[tedginnjr]

not true... they both sampled this... "Daydream" or "Day Dream In Blue" is a song originally recorded in 1968 by the Belgian band Wallace Collection. It was composed by band members Sylvain Vanholme and Raymond Vincent, with David MacKay[1] who also produced the single.[2]

[louloulou1991]

surprized this only hase that many views its a great song:)

[KineticRic]

Hell yeah, and he posts the Aberdeen's flag into the moon!

[lughole]
