This is one of my all-time favorites 🤩 Absolutely blew everyone's mind when it first came out 🤯
I used to have a video of myself, during a birthday, dancing to this 😂 Jamiroquai has so many great hits- Canned Heat and Cosmic Girl are musts! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
You know this boogie is for real
Yaaasss! I I LOVE Jamiroquai. Here in the UK, the genre was referred to as 'Acid Jazz'. I saw them perform this song live at the MTV Video Music Awards in NYC in 1997. Plus I've seen them in concert 3 times. They're AMAZING 💜 -x-
Hey! I was also at the VMAs that year! I worked at MTV and was a volunteer seat filler! Great times!
@@NoCanDu No way! I'm British, but lived in NYC 1996 - 1998 working as an Au Pair in Manhattan. I won tickets listening to K-Rock - I had to be the 92nd caller I think after they played a certain song! It was a surreal & amazing experience, albeit slightly strange atmosphere; it was a week after Princess Diana's death, which the world was still reeling from. I even managed to get tickets to the after party in Bryant Park (I think) & found myself on a table between Marilyn Manson and Chris Rock's tables! 🤯 I think I pinched myself several times that night! Lots of Love from the UK 💜 -x-
It's called Acid Jazz in the US too... although ironically, all the Acid Jazz artists I know are british, like Howie B.
@@AishaIsFabulous-x- So cool! I was also at Bryant Park! I think No Doubt was playing?!
I'm a metal/rock fan but Jamiroquai has some of the most infectiously catchy tunes that i cant help but think of them as a guilty pleasure.
I hit replay on this so many times ❤
You and me both. I have a soft spot for some funk
@@justinchetney3902 Funkalicious.....lol
I'm a metal/rock fan too, but great music is what it is, just great music. No guilt on that.
Ditto
This video was incredible for the time, they moved the whole set around him.
Exactly, I remember seeing this video on VH1 Pop up Video, the dark liquid at the end was hydraulic fluid from one of the floor level flat dollies the crew were using to move the set around the singer, they only had one day to shoot, so they had to leave it in the final edit due to the labor intensive nature of shooting the scene.
Space Cowboy from Jamiroquai is a must.. the bass line uff.
Seen this live version? ua-cam.com/video/IRTS9g88C7M/v-deo.html 🔥
My favorite song of their's. Though.. Mr. Moon... thats been my theme
Get a spliff before your hear that song tho. The bassline be poppin 😅
I performed this song in a middle school talent show in '98, i had the moves and costume and all. Set the stage for my whole high school years.
This song will never age.
Oh MAN! I am super psyched! "Don't Give Hate A Chance" is my favorite Jamiroquai song. And of course, Napolen Dynamite's dance was done to Canned Heat. Both worth checking out!
Thanks for sending me down a mid 90’s British Invasion rabbit hole this evening. Love it.
Love this one! Every time I hear it, there's two lines that cut me deep: "And nothing's gonna change the way we live/Cause we always take but never give" 😭😭 and the other "And now every mother can choose the color of her child/That's not nature's way"
Also gotta get to Main Vein, Space Cowboy, and Emergency on Planet Earth
Great lyrics for real!
@@kristaspecht from ‘Too Young to Die’ released in 1992 (an anti war song) so many great songs
All gone when we drop the bomb
Can the politicians reassure?
'Cause here I am
Presuming that
Nobody wants a war
There's so many people praying
Just to find out if they're staying
But lately stately governments
And disillusioned leaders
So full of empty promises
But rarely do they feed us
Put our backs against the wall
Or don't we count at all?
Can you decide
Are you mesmerised?
Do you know which side you're standing?
'Cause when it falls, gon' take us all
Gotta know what we're demanding
I never lie, can't you hear the cry
Coming from on high
I don’t know how I missed this in the 90s , I was totally into Metal back then but this shot is amazing !! And there are a lot more songs from him that I love!!!!
Great song. One of those universally loved tracks. No matter what you were into back in the day, you could still get down to this.
Before he became mainstream he did a live gig in Japan and did a live cover of Rappers Delight, it’s epic. 1993 live in Japan

Stars Hollow was a fictional small town in Connecticut.
All the good nostalgias - yes, plural. The video was groundbreaking, w its moving walls and detaching furniture to mess w all our sanities, the groove is still unique to itself (the music and the dance), and that hat was a rage for a hot minute at all the summer carnivals.
Stars Hollow is a fictional town in Connecticut. I know because I loved The Gilmore Girls but also because I grew up in a small Connecticut town much like Stars Hollow. ☺️
So glad we finally made it to this song/video! Definitely a play list tune for me since the first time I saw this video in the 90s. Love having these nostalgic experiences with the Tribe. Thank you!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
You might recognize his biggest hit “Canned Heat” - love his dance moves in this.
Are you talking internationally? Virtual Insanity is certainly Jamiroquai's biggest hit in the US.
@@TheLanceUppercut - I couldn’t tell you, I’ve not seen the numbers. I just know that “Canned Heat” became hugely popular because of the movie “Napoleon Dynamite”; it was likely what exposed a lot of kids to Jamiroquai.
@@TheLanceUppercut I think that was his biggest world wide
His moves are look so poetic and graceful
I remember when this video came out. It was so fresh at the time.
Have fun everyone!
Jamiroquai has to be one of my favourite groups of all time, like, top 5 for sure. Couple of things to know:
-Jamiroquai is a group, The singers name is Jay Kay, but there are backup singers and instrumentalists that are a regular part of the group.
-Jay Kay is, like, SUPER into cars, and tends to include a lot of them in their videos.
--Personal favourite songs by them include: Feels Just Like It Should; Seven Days In Sunny June; Cosmic Girl; and Canned Heat.
Another great video guys, love that the fans lead you here, here's hoping for more~
Love the video for Feels Just Like It Should :)
One of the most underrated artists there has ever been.
This, along with a few other songs, is quintessential 90's. Like, when I think of the 90's I think of this song
"Return Of The Space Cowboy" is one of their best, bit earlier and the bassist Stuart Zender relly in flight in it.
This brings out the nostalgia for me
Finally Jamiroquai 🧡❤🧡
Saw him perform back in Winter Park Colorado in summer 1996. Great performer and this song is an all time don't skip. Easy to jam to. Looking forward to the reaction!
Are you sure that wasn’t 99’? I was there and caught them then as well as when they played the Paramount in 97’, which I think was their first show in Colorado. Can’t believe it was 25 yo that I first saw them….damn.
@dhunninghake now you have me thinking... it could have been 1999. I can confirm it was a festival (one of the Marleys was performing that day as well) that took place at the towns ski resort
"Canned Heat" and "Runaway" are two of my favourite Jamiroquai songs (and videos). Love his voice and he's got some serious dancing skills.
The lyrics fit so much in today's world
Smokey lookin so worried when the wall gets close 😂
This came out during a really culturally rich time in British music! You had Jamiroquai here, and the likes of Seal, M People, Stereo MCs, and many more creating such a brilliant fusion of sounds Everything from funk, soul, electronic, house, dub, pop, dance, and so much more! So a fine choice by all means here good sirs :)
Stero MCs were great
@@StevieDrawStuff another superb live act ua-cam.com/video/kMbzDyti7-E/v-deo.html 🔥
A fine late 1990's classic.
*I knew you guys would dig this!*
💜💫✌🏼🎵
Cosmic Girl (Remastered) · Jamiroquai
You might know that song too
Alot of people thought that it was the floor moving but what they really did was just move the walls
Love this song , that was on repeat here way back then , awesome video !
Dopest jams. Never a bad song...
Yesss I’m so happy I love me some Jamiroquai 😊🎶🎶🎶I wish more from jamiroquai he’s amazing ✨🎶🤩✌🏽🕺🏻Canned heat or emergency on planet earth or cosmic girl 😉
Love these guys, such great energy! I always considered them 90s Disco. Plus, no comments on his dance moves??
Guys! So glad you played this Song. I may be a Seattle Scene Girl but I loved this song and video when it came out in the 90s. I recently posted this song on FB. It reminds me that what he is singing about has now become our Reality. 6, I think you nailed it saying this is Pop Funk. I agree with You.
Stay cool guys!
My guys!! These boys have some serious funk in their catalogue! The songs Deeper Underground (from the 98 Godzilla soundtrack) and Emergency On Planet Earth you should definitely check out next 👊👊
Song is over 25 years old now... we used to call the singer,JK, the funky white stevie wonder bread
The band's sound was so unique and well done, that even us hard rockers loved it
That entire album is incredible. This song hits hard because of how prophetic the lyrics seemed listening to it back then, and how accurate it feels listening to it today. Once you know the lyrics, you'll get a better understanding of the blood at the end of the video.
That was so much fun! You crack me up 😆 keep them coming
So many comments for “Canned Heat”. As a reference, it’s the song Napoleon Dynamite dances to in that movie.
This video is iconic! I'm pretty sure it was on Pop Up Video, too, because that's how I learned how they made the video.
Also, I would genuinely watch the two of you just play Trivial Pursuit or something.
Gotta do canned heat next it has a dope groove.
Jay Kay ❤
great song + reaction! it has a great, 'Stevie Wonder' vibe :)
The room was moving around on a hydraulic lift system, and at the end the blood was the hydraulic fluid from a line that broke open. That's also why the room stopped moving when that showed up.
Jamiroquai is one of my alltime favorites.
that's the funkiest acid jazz evaaaa! Love Jamiroquai. The basslines are crazy! And JK's phrasing and tempo are pure bliss
Love it. Keep up the good work guys
DeeperUnderground is a great banger from this amazing band that was perhaps the first to mix Funk, Acid Jazz, RnB and Disco in first half of 90s. Cosmic Girl, Little L or Love Foolosophy you may have already heard smoewhere.
a metalhead here! jamiroquai is always cool! i listened tho him very often and i should check out what he does nowadays! we loved to hear that when coming home from a hard weekend or just chilling. his voice and his music are just easy listening.
Legendary video, talk about thinking outside of the box. The walls were on wheels and moved around the floor and the furniture had Velcro on the back to stick them to the walls. Clever shit.🤘🏻🤘🏻
I used to jam to this song all the time back in the day. 🔥🎶🎸🥁😎
Morning guys! Hey that was pretty kool! I've heard the name but not ever heard his stuff. Loved it!!❤️🤓😁
Definitely a band with a discography worth exploring. Also worth checking there live shows out too. This was from there first album. Bassist was only a teenager. Great vocalist and super talented musicians ua-cam.com/video/a3p0HnaxWWI/v-deo.html ✌🏼
This was a bop when it first came out.
Jamiroquai's best song imo is "Feels Just Like it Should". Cool video to it too.
What an excellent commentary on the slip into "virtual insanity" written and performed in 1995/96. As a technologist from '91 (been in the networking business for 31 years), it was VERY prophetic. Now, the virtual world is our entire world. I'm commenting on a STREAMING video over WiFi on a device that's the size of a wallet over a network that goes 1GB from my couch.
This is one of the songs that it's so powerful that the video enhances it so much. So soulful
This is around the time I would go to the library to use the internet and they had like 2 computers. I was obsessed with Oasis around this time. You should put Oasis on your react list. Wonder wall, Champagne Supernova. Man, I wish I could go back to those days.
jamiroquai were pretty much known in the US because of their music videos ! in fact virtual insanity actually won video of the year in the 1997 vma ! you guys should check space cowboy or cosmic girl next :))
Gosh, it took you ages to actually react, lol, but I'm so glad I hung on because it was such a cool reaction and it was so good to see you enjoying the video, as well as appreciating and the fantastic funk and acid jazz that is Jamiroquai.
Hell of a jam
South Royalton, VT plays Stars Hollow in the opening credits of Gilmore Girls
3rd biggest selling U.K. act of the 90’s behind Oasis and The Spice Girls. Brought ‘acid jazz’ into the commercial music scene. Signed an 8 album deal with Sony music corporation. The music videos are always creative, but this band is best experienced live.
Check out ‘Canned Heat - Jools Holland’ recently uploaded to their YT channel ✌🏼 live dj doing the funky little fills is 🔥
The genre is called Acid Jazz. British origin. You should check out more of his stuff and Acid Jazz in general.
LOVE Jamiroquai!! Especially this song - loved it from the first note way back when ❤❤
Great audio sound. It’s funk and blues and pop. Kudos to the editor! Keep grinding boys
This was a guilty pleasure of mine back in the day. Can't even lie.
He's got some disco and reggae influenced songs from time to time too but most of it is funky! Dude was a huge name in the UK for a long time!
This is gonna be great. I can’t wait to see you guys see him…Cosmic Girl is another good one when you’re ready for more, he used to tour mountain towns in Colorado in the 90s, saw them in Durango, I don’t remember much about those days lol but I remember loving Jamiroquai, also from those days G Love & Special Sauce, super talented dude I think I’ve told you guys about him before but I can’t remember Cold Beverage is a great song by him! See you later✌😎💚🌻
G Love! Can't wait for them to get around to Rodeo Clowns!
@@mikethemotormouth yes, and Baby’s Got Sauce 😎… you and I seem to have the same taste in music most of the time, do you know about Sonia dada? Another one of my faves from this time period… I keep trying to get reactors to introduce themselves to them, but maybe it’s not about that, maybe just about sharing music with people in the comments… Check them out if you haven’t already, jungle song is hilarious on top of being great, lover, edge of the night, pretty much everything they did was awesome in my opinion lol recorded or live they’re equally great.
This is a badass song!
Great song. Prophetic. And a bass master class.
This genre is called Acid Jazz, Jamiroquai is the band, the front man is called Jay Kay, one of my favourite bands!
Love Jamiroquai! Glad that you reacted to it. Their music is from the Acid Jazz genre which was very big in the UK during the 1990s. The band is called Jamiroquai and Jay Kay is the lead singer and a genius. You should check out some of his other videos, Space Cowboy, Canned Heat etc Thanks for your reaction.
Jamarique seems like the good kinda weird that’s fun and creative and talented without the kinda weirdness that get people looking at you weird for enjoying it.
Just all around a wholesome experience. One of the VERY FEW music videos that I truly love! I will actively suggest it to people when ever the subject comes up… and I’m into rock, metal, and blues!
Absolute banger
One of my most fav songs from him. ALWAYS good vibes when Jamiroquai comes on. Love Cosmic Girl too. I would call it more electro funk personally but pop funk covers it pretty good.
Jay Kay's mother was a jazz singer, so he modeled his vocals in that lane. Cosmic Girl, Alright, Too Young To Die, Little L, Canned Heat....soooo many good ones from them. Funky AF.
This song was played across several radio formats; modern rock, top 40, r&b/hip hop, etc... It literally was everywhere. In addition to winning Video of the Year at the MTV VMAs, the song won the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Performance By a Duo or Group. Jamiroquai suggestions: "When You Gonna Learn?", "Space Cowboy", and "Cosmic Girl". If you enjoyed "Virtual Insanity" (and it seems you did) you should listen to the longer album version.
I listen to a lot of metal, electronica and gangsta rap but damn. Jamiroquai is one of those bands that, to me, I mean. They go hard on that funk! One of my favorites 💯
Love Jamiroquai. Acid jazz funk fusion
The technical skill in this video is incredible 30-odd years later. Still can't believe he avoided touching the wall at 7.25
Jamiroquai is the name of the band, you hardly saw them if ever, but mostly just the singer. There was a brilliant song on one of their albums called Black Capricorn Day, so funk 70's vibe that I'm sure youd love, it wasn't in the charts or anything. Love their music❤
Doesn’t matter how you categorise it, it’s just an awesome tune embellished with an award-winning video - not my regular genre being a metal head, but I genuinely don’t know anyone that doesn’t like this song - good music is good music
From Jamiroquai: Canned Heat, Return of the Space Cowboy, Cosmic Girl, Supersonic and Little L.
Great song and great video. I'd do Canned Heat or Deeper Underground next.
There are so many amazing Jamiroquai songs beyond this. Americans missed out big time. His best song is Talulah. Smoothest song of all time buried on the Dynamite album
I love this song and video, it brings me back to 1997 when I was in 6th grade and just started partying
I have loved this song since it came out and the video is amazing. I also like "Little l"
I love this song especially when I saw him live. The band is called his bass player is unreal. They do a lot of house dance funk is unbelievable and it is sort of poppy funk he wears a different hat. All the time that's his thing. Thank you you got to play the new lovebites judgement day
You Boyz got some catchin' up to do.
This and esp the earlier stuff were part of my house partys guys , epic live band that jams
Hah, this was everywhere on radio and music video channels - remember being mesmerised by the moving floor dance moves but had totally forgotten about the bleeding couches 😅
Great reaction! You guys gotta listen to deeper underground, another fire tune of jamiroquai
I'll put 90's music up against any decade. Fight me!
More “blue-eyed soul” for you! Love this song and the video is dope.
Wow. ! hr in. Georgia boy! Great shit!
Amazing tune great message. Iconic video. My mom turned me onto this one. Smokey was right! 😉
