The first 2 minutes is one of the best moments in music my ears have ever noticed

[@jrippens]

My favorite Tortoise song on a flawless Album... Standards should be double platinum, if only more people knew, right? damn... amazing drumming

[@BloodyHoneyBunny]

Emerica for life

[@BreyWoww77]

This Is Skateboarding.

[@FlamSalad]

Im obsessing over these drums

[@EarthUPC]

And thankyou Dan the automator for introducing me to this tune. My favourite at the moment. Children of the new world we are we are

[@CJAnonymous]

I've always associated this song with space flight for some reason. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

[@aguculture]

Hearing this track live is a feast for the senses.

[@mradamcooley]

i saw this on mtv2 when it first debuted and it blew my mind.

[@jalderwood]

Saw Tortoise at UCLA back in the day ca. TNT... the experience is still strong with me.

[@RealFrankZappa]

[@rgawer2]

[@Inbliss13]

Great music always love what Tortoise puts out.... check out Stereolab another great experimental group. Hey anyone ever think of why we are really in space? I have my clear ideas... ^_^

[@sgilling]

standards was good too as well TNT

[@Le0n1d1024]

@pwner002 I disagree. In my opinion, the intro is the best part of the song

[@sgilling]

personification, my fav was TNT

[@mankeymunkey]

it IS pretty good, eh?

[@dirtmerchant1980]

saw this on mtv's amp back in like 1996. fucking love it, minus the first two minutes of random noise.

[@caboomatic]

OMG wtf! at 5:23 there stands ALLAH in arabic on the clouds!! :O
