[@TeamJackassTV]

Absolutely one of the GREATEST songs in any genre ever. Everytime I hear this song I am transported back to when I was happy in life, and young....lol

[@bodhiapurva3887]

When first hearing The Orb on Colin Dale's radio show in 1993, rushed out to buy the 12 inch called Crappage, Never Hurry a Murray. It's so far ahead for it's time and still ranks as a unique find at the time. Be young forever and you won't go far wrong from the eternally youthful one who never gets old.

[@pattracey105]

Totally with you!

[@Nick-we9ll]

pioneers !!!!

[@st1rjool]

Me too back in 93 or 94. Coming down at my parents house ❤

[@samuelgarrod8327]

I hope you are still a bit happy. ♥️

[@maboulton2355]

I remember listening to this veri9n back in early 1990s, it stayed with me forever as a moment in time. A momentto reflect and reset. I am now 46 years old and a mother of 6. This album gronded me in reality and in dream

[@mgkelly2]

🖐.....even older at 53y. This blows me away still. The Rickie Lee Jones sample... Iconic, spine tingling, genre defining for me.

[@bodhiapurva3887]

Just brilliant. This defines the era it came from. Space rock.

[@daviddickinson936]

The definitive version - the fog horn and when that bass kicks in....PURE Orb.

[@iamdildorbowbeforeme9040]

The long intro to this live version is what makes this song perfect to me. Even though i think all that religious nonsense is bullshit, it still can move me to tears how masterfully he blended all these ethereal and loopy sounds, the incredible bass of the heart beat, following what i can only assume is a recorded therapy session. God this song is perfection.

[@tdurb0]

I’m 46 and this has a million trippy messed up unbelievably INCREDIBLE memories for me. Wow

[@gaborvajda6398]

50

[@st1rjool]

I was 16 when this came out. I remember that one drop of lsd and coming home and listening to this for the first time. Still gives me chills 😃

[@grendelum]

this was the first version of the track i heard and it’s still my favorite.

[@bobjackson6524]

Same

[@reverendcuntyman8769]

Live at the Roundhouse Camden, London, this summer - Orbfest. Great set, but if we're honest everyone's a bit disappointed not to have heard "fluffy". They came on and did an encore, 12 mins, and it was only about half way through we all started realising it was "Fluffy". Indescribable. Just built and built in waves. One of the best-natured gigs I've ever been to, as well.

[@gjw000]

they're pretty fantastic live

[@jennifercresswell1155]

It's only taken fecking 25 years...to find this... ffs

[@wideawake3959]

lol me too i thought it was a sven vath tune i remembered the machine in the stomach bit but could never find it

[@gordbrown8819]

better late than never 😀 This was one of my first techno cassettes in late 93. ❤

[@wgaule]

You could have bought the CD ffs!

[@tdurb0]

When that bass comes in at five minutes. Oh my goodness. Goosebumps all over again

[@kurtdewittphoto]

I use to listen to this constantly when I was young. A decade or more later, I just happened to watch "Once Upon a time in the West" and I lost my freakin' mind when he started playing that harmonica sample. It might have been the first time I learned what a sample was :)

[@patientlywatching7775]

This inducted me into the whole scene....I'm 41 almost.......the double Live 93 recording takes me to the heavenly ecstasy place that unless there's somr act of God I will never find again....I'm a functional person but I crave those days I cannot simply release....maybe if I had a kid ....desperate 2 go back...even for 1 second

[@jennifercresswell1155]

Stephanos Said You are right it is sublime.

[@arcticablue]

Those days are permanently etched in my memory and I long to go to events to this day but haven't been to an event for years! Those days were great!!!!!!!

[@tdurb0]

I would give all my money away for just six months of that time again. (I’m not rich. It’s not as overblown as it sounds 😊) Now I think I’d probably be lucky to survive the night, just one night, ANY night, without seriously damaging my brain haha

[@thekingjackass]

I think you must be my twin or something...im 42 and functional but not happy. Life sucks now and I have prayed to bring those good days back. I bought this album when I finished high school in 1993 and just hearing Little Fluffy Clouds takes me back. Good friends, a good sound system and some good drugs. I miss it!! If you get back to that place let me know. I'd love to join you. Seriously, I need it.

[@wideawake3959]

Happy 30th Birthday! This song and version has so many amazing memories and it still sounds so good xx

[@whereweregoingwedontneedey4374]

Iconic album of my university years. What a time....

All the layers! All the everythings. Brilliant work from brilliant folk ✨

Glastonbury '93 sitting amongst 100's of others, boiling hot Sun - it felt/sounded like the sounds were coming from the Sky! fab

[@Zerbey]

Thank you so much, I'll never understand why this isn't on any of the streaming services :(

[@spookypete6458]

good it underground

[@jennifercresswell1155]

I would happily burst my eardrums to this

[@grendelum]

let me tell you, in a planetarium with a 60kW surround system turned to 11, stoned off your gourd with the star projector spinning slowly, it is glorious.

[@TheFatblob25]

I was watching CBN on cable at my folks place one day & this episode of Benny Hinn came on..... I almost lost my mind. This Orb album is one of the handful of highwater marks in all of techno/electronic music. To hear what the Orb was doing with late 80's/ early 90's tech still boggle my mind. Orb live 93, orbus terrerum & Orblivion hold up better than 95% of music from that time.

[@metachrist723]

Thank you, so much. This version makes me want to transcend humanity, makes me want to rule my own being from 6 million miles above :))))

[@sw1pe]

The original is a masterpiece, but I always felt like it was obligatorily shoe-horned into "Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld," grafted onto the start, so to speak, before the real proceedings happen. This version sounds more like what should have featured on that debut album. Wonderful rework; love the extended samples from the Rickie Lee Jones interview. :-)

[@Liofa73]

sw1pe --- This version is the best one to listen to with headphones. The way the sounds seems to travel in circles around your head, it's almost like it's what stereo was invented for.

[@wgaule]

You're dumber than Jesus on a Friday!

[@saerah3291]

@@wgaule that's so funny why did you say thst

[@storageheater]

Oh wow. I had no concept of "prosperity gospel" growing up and spent all this time thinking this was a parody of faith healing done in a super deadpan way (in fairness, Chris Morris was not far off fame and recognition at this point), it sounded so much like they were singing the praises of the morphine drip's effectiveness at killing the pain as if it was unknowable magic. To finally remember to google what the sample is, well it's a revelation.

[@75julezas]

it is one of most bypassed time piece of all times (my subjective opinion)

[@mattfox311263]

The build up is well worth the wait. Please be patient you will not regret it .

[@KrillLiberator]

It's beautiful, the most beautiful version as a matter of fact.

[@Bordashblades]

This sounds exceptional in a modern set of IEMs... brings me back to the mid-90s in my shitty east village apartment, with friends, partaking in... damn I forget.

[@markkaupe7718]

Never knew a thing about The Orb or this song. Driving I-10 from California to New Orleans via Arizona and it came on Pandora. Beautiful day as exactly described by Ricky Lee Jones. Little fluffy clouds enhanced by listening to Little Fluffy Clouds....

Never again will music be like this.

[@TheFesta01]

Saw them live at Reading festival the whole set was great.. but this was the standout. They were on just as sun was going down and it was perfect.

[@bobjackson6524]

HAAALELUJAH!

[@oskarnorden]

Love this, always have! Anyone know where they got the "morphine drip" sample in the intro?

[@chairs_missing]

“Where are those doctors?!”

[@largactilhat]

Being nice little enablers to corrupt government, media and Big Pharma in particular would be my guess….

[@aboutdafunk]

Saw this tour @Roseland NYC ambient set

[@nycionx8328]

What's the amazing sample at 2:11? So uplifting I wanna find the full name of the song

[@mergingmarky8274]

"WHERE R THOSE DR.S?!"

The early 90s was a great time to be alive. Heard this version first before the original. Seems loopier

[@Hequinne99]

[@tvbabay]

Best version aside from the cumulonimbus mix. "He's got a morphine dree-up you can SEE it!" I spin rapidly in my office chair at the 5:49 mark. Don't care if anyone sees.
