I Mother Earth - One More Astronaut Lyrics
One more astronaut in black skin
Of universe
One more travellin' man
With heavy tired eyes, feeling cold
Thinking around the clock of drinking
And piss bags, never having sex and growing old
Headspace...alive and painless,
Weightless and almost sane
I close my eyes, I become the sky
Headspace...alone and shameless
Can't wait to find the faces
I left behind in a troubled time
Back home
Weeks and months alone chasing
Sleep and space junk and the dying
Stars I've known and loved
Through true decline
Of the five billion minds or so
Through mudslides
And earthquakes, the blue one holds
And rolls along
Endless old universe with
One more second chance at
Wondering why he's here at all
Bold are the ones who
Come over the line to fall over
The horizon...never ones to fade away
Then it hit me, this
Cosmic pull and energy
It kinda makes me wonder
If I'll ever make it Back home

Great song during sex....oh well.
Headspace alone and wasteless can’t wait to find the faces left behind back home

What???
Any chance of any US dates. My all time fav band!
@Stephen Bruckler I know nothing about any us dates only one in Sudbury in july so it states
ya buddy
Edwin is a god!
Still Awesome in 2019
Hearing this song when I was 14 changed the course of my life forever.
Just now discovered this band because I decided to see who the singer was for Alex Lifesons solo project 'Victor'. Glad to have found IME
wow edwin is back with IME and they're releasing another album this year. fuck that's amazing!!!!
I remember watching the clip on Much in the 90s
Always liked this.Video was cool too.
Going to see these guys in Chatham, Ontario with F11 next month!
These guys are like Canada's version of Nirvana
Nope, that's Moist. IME actually has more of an STP vibe to it.
@GregMHouse Oh ok because to me, Edwin's vocals sounds a little like Kurt's.
GregMHouse neither Moist, nor IME sound like Nirvana.
IME, still rocking in 2018!
Saw these guys in 2000. Minnedosa with jar n nickleback when in there infancy
I... Robot
2018......holding up well!
I bought this cassette at the record store while I was still too young to know what music was a good buy. It ended up being the best purchase I ever made.
Big Shiny Tunessss
My highschool days put to music!!
Fuck i miss drinking whiskey out at the ship and anchor in Calgary. Trippin and droppin quarters in the best fuckin juke box ever. I miss this music.
it was my brithday at music hall
one of the best shows i seen
I listened to this whole album, tripping on 2 hits of acid one night.
Sick bassline
It sounds so good yeah
so hard to find this song, it was playing in my head today
Yes this Canadian band..has deep messages in a lot of lyrics such as this song & "Rasberry" xl music also
Great tune
the canadian smashing pumpkins
mitchell zurbrigg how? Jags guitar playing is all blues, funk and prog. I honestly don’t hear it. Ime tracks have way more complex breakdowns and structure. For me the pumpkins will always be more melancholic. Ime has way more manly bravado like stp. Canadian STP with some serious funk thrown in there.
I’d love to hear the pumpkins do funk. Lol
Saw these guys as my second concert
Saw them too with Moist and Our Lady Peace in Quebec City back then. Amazing show.
Anybody else have the American Eagle CD this was on back in the day (waaaaay back in the day lol)?
I saw these guys and Tea Party for $5.00
M Mac I saw them for free.
Can we be friends
I saw them on MTV Headbanger's Ball in the early 90's. Back when MTV was good.
Rmpaq5 I seen them at the Loop, partied with them on shrooms in Chatham too lol loved the 90’s
** I close my eyes, I become this guy...** What I hear.
Why is this not available anymore?
Can't believe how long I slept on these guys.. been a huge grunge fan for years. AIC, STP, Smashing pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc. Never heard of these guys until I was listening to a Canadian radio station recently
Econoline Crush had amazing prod it aged like fine wine.
Just imagine a whole country of places like Seattle and Portland, with some French.
I don't know if you guys ever hear "dallas green" Down there, or(forget the name of his band), but , or...you should check out Monster Truck. good cndn. band..but i'm goin' to see the trews, loverboy & the spoons in hamilton next month!summer in Canada rocks!!!
just remebered the name of the band.."City in colour" pretty talented guys.
FryGuy 420 since City and Colour started as a side project for Dallas Green I think you mean Alexisonfire. Sorry if my assumption is wrong, but I figured since the topic was alternative bands I thought perhaps you needed a helping hand.
it sounds almost the same live... 10/10 song
I have seen them live in ... 1995 I think!? They were really good.
well hot damn this is the real deal. thnx
4:12 best part
Still killer in 2017....
nockanoo62 2018*
Christmas 2018 lol
Also in 2019
saw them friday night w finger eleven
@mike lake I saw them in Chatham on the 10th thursday
They sounded similar to a mashup of Janes Addiction and Smashing Pumpkins who also were big at that time, all great bands in that era I was growing up.
Agreed Darren
smashing pumpkins and stone temple pilots more like
What is the background vocal track from 4:20 to 4:30?
Thank you, CHOM 97.7.
yeah but astral media sucks dick making Chom play shitty songs 5 times every hour again their will. per se by contract
It can get a tad repetitive, but all the same, they have a nice mix of classic rock and present-day stuff.
Ningty at nine cant miss it at my job
i thought this was nirvana for a second
Lol Nirvana was never that funky ....
I Smashing Pumpkins
@Tree Greene you sound quite defensive.
as a fan of both, IME have a WAY harder edge than smashing pumpkins. And the lead singer isn't nearly as big a douchebag... no wait. yes he is.
Our Lady Peace sounds more like the Pumpkins with those whiny vocals.
OrionTheHunter yeah minus the fuzz pedal, the other 5 million effects pedals
This is on my playlist. Incredible production, great energy, and a nice hook!
Pisser....
I used to have all these cd's and have mixed and mashed left. you cannot buy them anywhere..so glad to see them in here!!
Super curious.... it's "mixed and matched". Did you think it was "mixed and mashed"? No judgement. I just think that kind of thing is funny. I do it myself from time to time.
First heard this song on a VA compilation promo CD that I received from Alternative Press Magazine during the 90s, and soon was "hooked" on "Scenery and Fish"
I was listening to this in Florida in the 90s though Americans didnt understand it. It rocked a few campus parties.
Chris Halliday don't forget limblifter
John Smith listen to big wreck...very underrated Canadian 90s band
I would like to add Moist & The Tea Party!
John Smith Our Lady Peace, The Tea Party, The Odds, Treble Charger, I Mother Earth, just to name a few.
Doc Halliday Sloan is one of the most criminally underrated bands of all time, they should’ve been huge
Great Job!!
thanks elderniro
This is actual music.
i'd hate to see you idea of music if you dont think this is music.
big bad papa bear ... Damn Straight!!!
Yah bud! 100%
There were some killer bands around Canada in the 1990s. These guys, tea party, sloan, the smalls, the hip, our lady peace...
listening to your mom play my skin flute is music
Thanks Mark!
good band for the time
Great dynamics in this recording.
@***** What? Dynamics means the decibel difference between the maximum volume and the lowest volume in the track. The worse the dynamics, the more boring, flat, and overwhelmingly loud the track is and metal often ruins their music like that.
yeah this is really impressve
There are literally zero dynamics in this song. Look up what dynamics are. Great song, but no.... no dynamics. LOL
No nostalgia for me; this awesome song still rocks the radio all the time :)
+smthone I know. I think it's a bit overplayed in Canada.
hard to overplay I mother Earth
Well, they have other great songs which don't seem to get any airplay. So, most people only know this one.
I know Levitate, Not Quite Sonic, Rain Will Fall, So Gently We Go, Summertime In The Void, Used to be Alright, Another Sunday and Raspberry...
Robert Baratheon i miss the fuckin Canadian Highway man. Puffin and goin from the coast to the rockies just living the music. I live in the USA now and its cool but not the same. No vast distances of wilderness or shit. I love this band.
Whenever I'm on the east coast of Canada. I think alot about this song. It's just an east coast kinda thing.
This band is from Toronto, Ontario you know.
Yeah. And whenever I'm on the east coast of Canada. I think alot about this song/album... Good observation ;)
Большое спасибо
Lead singer is from my home town :) Went to school with his brother!
Edwin's the janitor at my school.
Nope, this is Edwin!
Cool story, bro.
and slept with his father?
You tried...
I was lead here by a post on Tumblr asking whether this band or Our Lady Peace was better...I am on this fence. These amazing sounds, and I am definitely in love.
I'm on a fence, too. I like the alley cats playing the blues.
Um, When IME was at it's best, Edwin on the mic, his ego NOT in overdrive, everyone focusing on the music, they could make better music than OLP, definitely. The problem is the planets had to align pretty much precisely for that to happen. IME only really had two or three songs that went out of the park, this one, "So Gently", and that other one from QMD (sort of). Our Lady Peace consistently makes great music, so they are my favorite of the two for that reason. I would choose naveed album over IME box set any day of the week.
@GregMHouse if it was a choice of one band disapearing as if their music never existed I would vote for IME to stay.. simply because their early stuff with edwin is badass. olp only had 1 album(their first), after that they went in a direction I couldnt follow.
Yeah, of the two I definitely think IME was the better band - at least they wrote better songs that were more technical. OLP was good too, but the first two IME albums were SICK.
IME takes the cake. Their use of funk really does push them above, not to mention both of their singers have more listenable voices than OLP's. "Dig" and "Scenery and Fish" some of the best recordings I've heard honestly.
Canada rules! We can rock out and kick the shit out of the states in hockey. Sounds like 2 great things. Not mention we're 10 times smarter lol
obscurissimus I like Burger Baron the most because their mascot is spooky as fuck and it's a local fast food chain that's been on the brink of bankruptcy for 20 years
+methecsgod
Well, there are a lot of them.
Hahahaha
Yeaaaaah
@obscurissimus your....lololol i think he made his point
Thy do sound similar tho
All of u comparing olp to I mother earth! They are two different sounds! Wake up
Back in my Rock radio days I had a chance to play 'bongo's' on stage with these guys for WXTB's Gasparilla event in Tampa, to this song...what a rush
↓ Ditto! ♥
fuck yea
awesome song!!!!
High school was awesome.
Best song i've heard for a while
Songs like this make me feel i was born a decade too late...
nigga u wus
90s were so incredibly much better. Such Nostalgia for that time..
this was when i was alive !
This song reminds the world of it's youth.
Damn this reminds me of my youth... I can smell the pine trees, and feel the cold California air down my spine...
Oh 4:10, how i love thee...
One of the best years in Canadian music, ever.
Not taking anything away from OLP, they're a fantastic band, but I would have to whole-heartedly disagree with you on that one.
ServantOfHumanity, OLP is twice the band I Mother Earth will ever be! Happiness is a tremendous album. Even Spiritual Machines has more solid tracks than the best of I Mother Earth.
@pivot1022 I guess
that's.... cool?
I was 3 that year
"I Mother Earth" sounds strangely like an early "Our Lady Peace"... I guess the names are just a coincidence!
somehow when I listen to this album I am taken back to early early morning driving across Saskatchewan near Alberta, the sun coming up and listening to this was just so zen o>o
oh miss the 90s
Tis song rocks
like being 13 again!
I bought this album a long time ago...I guess when it first came out. I forgot I have this CD. I forgot about this band and for some reason their name just came in my head and I thought...ahh...I wonder if they have videos on Youtube...sure enough...this was my favorite song by them. I didn't know they were still making new albums. That's cool.
@dctarget51 Have you checked out their new album. It's totally kick ass.
