Shaun Escoffery - Space Rider

[Kellett80]

Has the beat to this song been used on a previous track, it sounds very similar to an old song. Not criticising at all im just trying to find out what the other song was

[JanB56]

Another good song that I know thanks to Lydia on bass

[ScratchOnScratch]

gReaT

[turnex1]

[MsSmokesomeweed]

[oscarschiavone1]

be lli ssi ma!!

[alvshill]

Meant to add in my last comment.. an amazing song!

[alvshill]

It is me, or does anyone else think he has a voice reminiscent of the late great Luther Vandross?

[iykist]

@alvshill Yes, he does sound like Luther Vandross.

[supersoulmusiq]

Classic !! But.....whatever happen to Shaun's soulful tracks that got shelved?

[GreyFoxNinjaFan]

Escoffrey is moonlighting as Mufasa in the Lion King at the Lyceum theatre. At least he was last year.

I was fortunate enough to meet him while on work experience at Trevor Nelson's Urban Choice.

[YouGotMeJuicy]

I could listen to this all day and all night!

[TheOgunwale]

Excellent tune and artist.

[portsideone]

this song is just timeless and not many songs you can say that about great voice shaun great music spinna

[BF6ct]

Nice

[TheZDA1]

when you hear a male vocalist like this guy, you dont wanna listen to a female vocalist, theres pure soul in that voice. A bit like the best chefs being male..........

[ITM396]

A very very underrated vocalist.

[guy55997]

@ITM396 i totally agree.

[whizzle50]

[natsannho]

Used to love this tune back in the day, also saw him playing Mufasa in the Lion King last night!!! He was great!

[intelect100]

first time i hear of this guy and i all ready like him very talented. I LOVE THE BEAT!!!! THE MELODY IS SICK EXTREMELY SOOHING TO THE BRAIN!!!!  IT sounds like a J-DILLA BEAT!!!

[XtraClipz]

@intelect100

Haha not quite Dilla I think, but I see where you're coming from...the bass definitely has it...

[micljnes]

Guys, I was on this tune a lot of years ago, and I totally agree, how he was not major is beyond me, but I have always felt this track was too urban for the pop-loving public, and if he was American i think this track would have been a top 10 hit, it's an astounding track, and I love the bassline in 'Gabriel', Never knew he sang it....

[frickfrock999]

This man's voice transcends space and time.

And this video is the proof!

[SalmataGirl]

do you have the Peter Kruder remix of "Spac0e Rider"??? I can't find the song on the internet anywhere

[INDEEMIXX]

[louise61965]

Got a feeling this track is going be heavy

[ijoinedforalaugh]

:) It is, and it was, its quite an old one now. - Check out the MJ cole remix if you like UK garage?

This guy is underated! - 'Days like this' is another cool song of his. :)

[TheNtokzeen]

GOOD MUZIK 4 GOOD PEOPLE!!!

[MrMartinskinner]

Soulful pleasure, brilliant!

[allseeingi]

Great Vocals, where is he now and does he have a sister or wife called Michelle that sang with Artful Dodger ??

[only1zilla]

Coz people like commercial s**t!

[micljnes]

Definately my favourite Shaun Escoffery track, what a bad boy chune, big up the London Elite, why the F*** do tracks like these never get the exposure they truly deserve, it hurts my soul the guy has god given talent........ PEACE

[VoodooRhythmSound]

Shaun and Arnold Jarvis are spectacular - probably my favourites for soulful electronic music vocals

[1956C]

Un talent énorme la relève est assurée... Je fais partager sur Facebook gagne a être extèmement connu. Bravo une nouvelle fan.

[LivingSoulful]

Please don´t ever stop singing, never!!

And don´t you ever lose your wonderful smile expressing your inner feelings, I can really feel you Shaun.

Thank you for giving this to me....

Barbara

[1Mellodee]

[Rmkb1]

Never heard this dude before, but I like it!

[syrussykes1]

*Underrated!

[DJInterstar]

Gave you thumbs up. Some idiot docked you 1 point...

[syrussykes1]

UNDERATED! People of today don't know good music if it PUCHNED them in the FACE!

[wandawizard1]

Reminds me of when I worked behind the bar at Vivid & Elite in Romford, then @ Eros in Enfield.

Great tune.

[beneyedens]

eros in enfield isnt really the nicest place is it haha

[MrMartinskinner]

First heard this on a Virgin 747 across the Atlantic. Can't stop listening to it now!!

[shinobuny21]

I love it !

[TheOldtimer1]

super sound very nice

[Neziboy]

dis song is dope

[misformayhem]

I really like that one scene near the end where that beautiful woman kisses him and then vanishes--I've had dreams that ended that way...

[JeremyRileymusic]

ou man i love this song.

[MacVizion]

Great voice and music song sucks dude hot never heard of him got to do some research!

[redreets]

Boy he has amazing voice,i would fall asleep happy listening to him,beautiful.

[brotha3000]

shaun is HEAVY but the original of this is Gabrielle by Roy Davis Jr with Peven Everett on vocals.

[RedOniZ]

THATS THE ONE! Thanks.

[spearmintt]

It's just a similar melody but they are of course, two different songs... both are fire..!

[illson72]

oh,this is that joint!!!

[zigeunerlein]

Wow good music very cool and his voice...great !!!!

[RedOniZ]

Havent heard this tune in years! Their was another track which kinda has the same beat as this one but can't rmbr what its called or the name of the artist, can any one help?

[luizbong]

nice beat!

[shockiest]

This is tune is bad from back in da dayz!!!

[DisneyBaby08]

i seen him in The Lion King at the Lycuem Theatre in London , and it was breath-taking , THE BEST SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN ! I WAS EVEN CRYING BECAUSE IT WAS SOOO GOOD !

[abluedeu]

Is he the guy who sung in Lion King? I mean, the movie?

[DisneyBaby08]

he didin't sing in the movie , but he does sing in the musical i went to see.

[crazyalcayne]

I've heard so many mixes of this song! I still haven't heard the one that I have on CD LOL!. Dope song!

[mimi10791]

LOVE THIS SONG its so smooth!

[youszef]

Great chill track

In this clip he look sometimes to Morpheus from matrix :-P espacially when he is laying on the seat

[pwrgawd]

A voice as smooth as butter. Effortless.

[gk020490]

i remember this... if your out there shaun come back!!!

[Keenkiller]

awesome song, heard it last night on the deluxe music channel and fell in love with it xD

[iNtEdDiBlE1]

This Dude *

[iNtEdDiBlE1]

What Ever Happened 2 Dude . . ?

He Was Good Aswell !

[shank1e]

this guy was a little bit ahead of his time. there wasn't really a market for these type of artists back then. he'd be BIG CHEESE if this came out now!!!

[thebest1963]

@shank1e well said mate. this guy should have been a superstar 10 years ago, and i just saw him 2 hours ago at my cousins 40th birthday party........great guy

[mochachoes]

@shank1e I disagree, You left this comment here two years ago.... I'm loving the song today.

I'd say he is more timeless than ahead of his time.

[Clanmemberkalvin]

great. Is this guy from europe?

[danoba6]

The Whole Esco family is highly talented. I luv DJ Spinna 4 years.

[hueyjacksonrules]

A true star... all my respect to you Shaun Escoffery.

Kendjomaster.. this master is undoubtedly...unconsiderably..­. way way WAY too breath-takingly talented for 'pop idol' or 'x factor'.. THE GUY IS A TRULY BLESSED STAR, I actually order you to go and see the West End's "Lion King", at Lyceum Theatre - just see if you can recognise this most outstanding voice, which left me speechless I must say!

[penoo14]

love it and him lol

[sheebs2008]

Great tune, great singer!

[thatsyobabydaddy69]

is it just me or does he look a lil like he could  Todd Bridges bro? lol!

[thatsyobabydaddy69]

i love this song!

[intrigue2020]

This song came out in 2000. Lots of true artists of that time, such as Damage, didn't get too much credit. Maybe attention was elsewhere, or UK soul artists don't have much clout in the US, or downloading was getting its surge. Who knows. All I know is Shaun Escoffery is a true artist, love his musical talent. And his compilation with MJ Cole was superb.

[SpankRamen2]

2000??? Wow, I didn't hear this until just the other day. I heard the remix. Man, am I late!

[superjigga2004]

I remember seeing this song on the MTV base chart in 2000. I agree with your comments on Shaun and Damage especially not getting enough credit. My theory is that The UK was not ready for that type of Soul music which is really disapointing to say. It is only now through Pop vocalists coming out over the past years which has slowly made the public ready for this type of sound. This album and the remix version (Soulonica) is a masterpiece. Go and buy it and you will see what I mean.

[superman21980]

Fantastic

[kevinthegreatest]

He Has Been 2 My House Since Im Friendz Wiv His Younger Bruver...Shame Ppl U Will Never get Dat Near To Him

[kendjomaster]

shaun it was good to see you that beer advert and hope to see you singing soon on pop idol x-factor etc...god bless

[sharonhoneybaby12]

Sweeeeeeeeet... why don't we hear more about him? He's amazing.

[seanisapro]

I love this song, everything about it. his voice is so smooth and the production is first class. make me proud to be British, knowing that we can produce a fine R&B artist that even the american with all there talented artists would be proud of.

[3034lorna]

Fine figure of a man!!! and a voice that makes me stand to attention!!... Yes Sir!!!

[waldo197720]

Biggin up all the UK Soul heads.....

[mazaradiflash]

Attention!!!! Does anybody on this blog or on this channel have the DJ Spinna remix of this song (Space Rider by Shaun Escoffery)? I heard the DJ Spinna remix on the radio once but can't find it! Any Info would be good and If someone wants to post it to YouTube That would be awesome!!!!

[cr8xlns]

i think I got the mix your looking for I can send it to you if you want

[soulvibe]

i love this song! so good, so nice !

[oldskoolflavbabe]

Thanks have always loved this tune:)

[amandablue1]

*loves it*

[1UpGamers]

Another Great song by Shaun. Keep it movin man!

[kirz778]

What a voice on this guy lol. This song was played here in chicago a lot two years ago.

[tmontyb]

American mainstream radio is at it's worst. Thank goodness for remixes. Joe C, Danny K, and Francois K used to tear up the dance floor with Space Rider and Days Like This at Body & Soul in NYC. That's how I got introduced to this great artist. His album is well worth the money.

[hammersboy72]

How good is this guy? He should've made it big time! My sister went to college with him.

[snapes999]

nice track, is he any relation to michelle?

[Pammy30j]

I think brother and sister

[piankhy123]

What a classic tune, thanks for placing this on youtube.

[AcousticUplift]

I always think of Shaun Escoffery when I think of the injustice of the mainstream in the UK. They'll loud and overrate someone of average talent like Lemar and a vocal heavyweight like Shaun gets overlooked. I adore this tune and his very deft sampling of an legendary soulful house track 'Gabriel'. Class act, class tune.

[AdrianOyster]

Thanks for the comment, really appreciated. It baffles me too. Shaun is unquestionably one of the best genuine artists this country has to offer and i'm convinced he will have his day....eventually.

Until the new material's out, please check out the recently released 'Move Into Soul' album. Quality stuff!

[cheeckybutnice]

1 of my fav artists seen him so many times at the jazz cafe in camden

[abioseh]

Wow, if I shared a dressing room with Shaun he'd never get out!!!!!!!

[inbigins]

Very talented guy.Worked with him in the west end great guy.
