I first listened to this when I was 11 because of my sister. I am 20 now and found it in an old mp3 player. Listening to it brings back so many memories.
hahahaha i did the mistake of listening to it at a young age too - fucking creepy, it travels the brainbark of your skull, merely a visage of itself untill its ready to present itself and you are drawn back into that strange mindset >:)
Lol I literally thought this was pendulum (dnb group) first album. Christ I spent my teens telling cunts that they were an ambient band before breaking into dnb. Had no idea I was wrong. Buzzy
@@advancingaustralia2913 wait, who are the band? I've been trying to find more on them for like a decade! I used to assume it was the D&B band Pendulum but it just makes no sense. Feel like the other band just disappeared.
@@SAguirre7490 Ha, yeah, it confused me for decades too. This Pendulum was from Melbourne and were only active in the mid 90s. They only released one album and 3 singles, of which this was the best known.
@@DodderingOldMandude what!? That’s so wild. Wild that this is one of my fav songs and the only pendulum is also one of my fav bands lol. I’ll have to find this pendulum’s other songs
I've been defending Pendulum for ages saying that they created this tune so they must have some talent. Talking about post-Hold Your Colour Pendulum. Now I find out it's a different band. Been about 8 years of me thinking it was the other one....anyway, really trippy and incredible tune. A little snippet from 'Natural Born Killers' at the end aswell. Superb track.
Ever since I was born I was trained to serve you is from coming to America with eddie murphy. it is the wife his father chose for him that he didn't want.
so its taken me YEARS about a good 10 years or soo trying to remember how literally every aspect to try and find this song from clicking heels to clock sound never found it for years til now at 31 i type in pendulum and go thru the alphabet to try and find this dam song and type in C and COMA came up and mind-blowing fucking found it!!!!! Truley a song that has stayed with me for a long time
Im here in 2021. First here in 2006 at 13 years old. It's been a whirlwind of time since then. This song just made me reflect on every year since I first heard this song. Was soul soothing
I first heard this song in 2006 while playing World of Warcraft. This brings me back to friends from around the globe that i'll never see again. To roaming a world that was still fresh and new with good people who probably don't remember i exist. Music is the closest we'll ever come to time travel in my lifetime.
@Dude McFurgusson thanks for your story, mate. And I know what you mean. I was not to much into games myself but I did move around the world and went to alot of different schools as a kid making friends i remember fondly but I was such a small imprint over there lives I wouldn't of been remembered like I remembered them. Life is a funny event. The depth of this experience is more than the now
I just checked, they're definately not the same, but here's the funny thing, both Pendulums are Australian groups. True the D&B group are based in London, but were originally from Perth. I like both Pendulums.
it's weird they let them do that. so many bands have to change their name when they sign with a label because the name they are using has already been used by another band
@@jaydecrossley6736 One interesting fact is that there is a drum and bass remix of this song (and quite a good one), which was the first ever Drum and Bass track in Australia released on vinyl!
I must've been about 16-17 when i had this on one of the first mp3 players with a whopping 128mb memory! Enough for about 30 tracks so had to choose wisely.
I remember watching the video and talking it very literral. I thought this song was actually about this woman being in a coma, maybe after a miscarriage because they kept showing a baby. After hearing the last line that wasn't in the video "am i not all you dreamed i would be?" i'm pretty sure the weird guy in the elevator was her father, she was the baby, and the whole song is about growing up into a boring role for other people, until your everyday live becomes a coma in itself. The silent screaming in the video and the though of being in a coma myself terrified me, but we might all be in this situation to some degree...
what a trip i go through, the joy of life. when i was 7 on my brothers computer alone used too listen too this and close my eyes and think of the weirdest things hah, never knew that was a start too a revolution for me 13 years later. joys of life, strange lol
I remember hearing this on Triple J way back in 1997. I finally found it again around 2011 and now listening to it in 2023. Still just as creepy and awesome as it ever was.
Fell asleep with my phone playing music on UA-cam and this song played while I was asleep and I heard it in my dream and then as I was waking up I had a paralysis episode and I could still hear it. Shit was crazy and every since then Ive come back and listened to it every so often. Such an eerie yet amazing song.
for approx. 7 years i've been thinking of this as the only good track from pendulum. And now i am told it's another pendulum? there's more stuff like this? Oh... i know what im gonna do tonight :). Exploring another soundscape.
i think the bad, bad, bad, bad in this is from Natural Born Killers. i've listened to this song many times and i just realized this. this is pleasing to me
1: This song sounds perfect in a video game. 2: To base a song around someone walking in heels satisfies the ears. Well done Pendulum. This is the perfect antidote to Insecurity.
this brings me back to days where I would sit with a cup of tea contemplating new musical ideas with my uncle who abused as a young child... p.s I loved it
i just did some digging and found out that there was actually an original pendulum that got disbanded before the present day pendulum was even created (i love dnb)
@58EM No. If you'd read the previous comments that I was replying to, you'd realise that I am correct. DonnyRedNr1 said that he couldn't believe that he thought this was made by DnB pendulum for 7 years, when it was actually someone else. Then Peapodmaster implied that DnB Pendulum couldn't make beautiful music, so I replied with a great atmospheric track by them entitled Plastic World.
Yeah found this as I'm trying to reorder my Pendulum playlist.. actually really good. I would of liked this band to create more songs like this. Anyone know if any of the people in this group are still active under a different alias?
I have been listening and loving this song for over 20 years. Just to discover that the lyrics are taken from Aldous Huxley´s Brave new world and that is a totally different band. Anyone know if the members produced other stuff after this album?
Lol! I’m 71 and still love this as much as I did when it was first released. I’m trying to think of the movie in which it was part of the soundtrack. Was it 1984? Or maybe Logan’s Run?
I don't care what anyone says this is the real Pendulum anything released after this album under this name is going to be inferior. This is one of the best electronic albums of all time NUF SAID
I came across this by accident but really like it! Can someone recommend some other similar stuff. Is it called ambient? Just something as beautiful as this!
sadly there is nothing similar to that sound, and only one album which is very different than this track. If you listen to the album, you can guess the author must have shot himself just after this is so dark
God this song is creepy lol. Love it tho. Gives me chills every time the girl moans and it makes me think of the forbidden video from The Ring lol. The whistling teapot?
@ioanabuzz its no that creepy, its alien and beautiful to hear, silence is creepy, it provokes the imagination, sound keeps us awake and can also put you asleep too, it did sound a little creepy years ago i do agree, i guess my imagination puts fear to sleep and desire awakens to the sound of music like this ;)
There is tons of music similar to this, a favourite of mine is Aphex Twin - Flim.. It's kinda similar, unfortunately I am not really sure what the genre is called.
go to convert2mp3.net. copy and paste url to the the video link. convert. download. go to download file on your pc and drag the song to your music file. go to itunes, file, add file to library! Easy as.....
Buy music in a format you actually own, and will continue to own for as long as you want despite any corporate licensing. I recommend ripping CDs. And get off my lawn.
I still remember showing all the friends at 16 what beautiful song I had discovered.....I'm over 40 now and can still feel and see the friends I had frome back in the day, the love and beauty in this song will always be with me!
Still my favourite tune to this day! The 90’s really was a special time to be around if you were into electronica, but this is the peak for me.
I've been searching for this since 1998. This is what got me into techno..

Fucken dead set!?
The answer my friends is learn trust law.
I’m 71 and still love this as much as when it was first released.
Me too
2004 for me 🥰
Such a tumultuous time.
Still rolling. Wow wow wow.
first listened to this when i was 13. now 24 I still think about it and listen to it all the time.
first listened to this song when I was 13. Im turning 30 this year.

29 now

Haha seems to be a few of us with the same experience. Always creeped me out a bit when I heard it first but draws you back since it's so interesting
10 years I've been listening to this and still at least once a month I've got to hear it. Masterpiece.
I remember accidentally finding this song when I was looking for a song by the other band names pendulum. I still think about it from time to time.
This album is one of the greats of Australian music. So underappreciated. Look for "awesome party" by the same band.

Those were the days when we were spoiled with brilliant electronica.
This is so dark and mysterious, it reminds me of exploring abandoned places, so haunting...
My abondoned place is a lil local to my brain. Same thing though weirdly.

the doorbell sound is from Clockwork Orange. The "hug me.." lyrics are from Brave New World novel.
Ever since I was born I was trained to serve you is from coming to America with eddie murphy. it is the wife his father chose for him that he didn't want.
The "ever since I was little" is from Eddy Murphy Prince from Zamunda
But what about the wailing sounds? I can't seem to find where they were sampled from
Thank you everyone 😊 it bugs me when I can't place a familiar sound.
so its taken me YEARS about a good 10 years or soo trying to remember how literally every aspect to try and find this song from clicking heels to clock sound never found it for years til now at 31 i type in pendulum and go thru the alphabet to try and find this dam song and type in C and COMA came up and mind-blowing fucking found it!!!!! Truley a song that has stayed with me for a long time
Still, to this date. Best tune I've ever heard.
TripleJ did an interview with me back in the late 90's on the hydroponics "industry" here in Adelaide. This was their
backing track. Sublime..
Is that interview still around?

absolute genius samples in this (especially the door bell from a clockwork orange) & so beautiful. can’t believe this wasn’t bigger.
I remember watching the video and talking it very literral.
I thought this song was actually about this woman being in a coma, maybe after a miscarriage because they kept showing a baby.
After hearing the last line that wasn't in the video "am i not all you dreamed i would be?" i'm pretty sure the weird guy in the elevator was her father, she was the baby, and the whole song is about growing up into a boring role for other people, until your everyday live becomes a coma in itself.
The silent screaming in the video and the though of being in a coma myself terrified me, but we might all be in this situation to some degree...
That is very thoughtful I will now reconsider what I thought
I think the reference to "brave new world" made it clear it was about the engineering of consent
This is absolutely incredible ! Perfection achieved ! No matter how many times I listen this song, it's always like the first time.
I listen to this when I'm tired. So relaxing. Amazing sound.
when i was a student i used to smoke weed and trip out to this
this was the first track i ever bought on a cassette tape. i would have been no older than 8! such a great song!
what a trip i go through, the joy of life. when i was 7 on my brothers computer alone used too listen too this and close my eyes and think of the weirdest things hah, never knew that was a start too a revolution for me 13 years later. joys of life, strange lol
nicely said
What happened 13 years later?
@@DodderingOldManso many things my bro
If you mix this tune with a liminal pictures you have the perfect combination to relax yourself
A brilliant era in music. Prog rock met sampling and grunge met derision.
2001 pisses me off. We were about to be better.
why does 2001 piss you off ??
both pendulums a great
Clever all the odd sound effects combine to give such a deep ,sombre tone to this song. So dark and spacey....
this is the most beautiful piece
first heard this in 2008. i think 7th grade. here i am 23 and i still love this song
I heard this around the same time, one year ahead of you. Has haunted me to this day until
I remembered the name of the track. Amazing.
I’ve been into this since the mid 1990s! Still is awesome
I remember hearing this on Triple J way back in 1997. I finally found it again around 2011 and now listening to it in 2023. Still just as creepy and awesome as it ever was.
My friends and I listened to it back in 2007 as Juniors in HS. This song isn’t just amazing, but now has great memories attached to it.
Scary to listen to at nightt!
Fell asleep with my phone playing music on UA-cam and this song played while I was asleep and I heard it in my dream and then as I was waking up I had a paralysis episode and I could still hear it.

These guys were around before DnB Pendulum to all those calling them imposters.. They are not the same band.
WHAT
WYM THEY'RE NOT THE SAME BAND
I think this interpretation of the soma holiday is spot-on. Whenever I read that section I always hear this song in the mental background
What a coincidence that both bands are australian and both did experimental music in the same period of time
This Pendulum was around in the mid 90s.
this is art
Love it every decade or so I listen to this masterpiece ❤️
2021 - went to sleep one night . Had a stroke. Woke up and noting was the same. Am i still in a coma?
im completely entranced by and addicted to this song :)
for approx. 7 years i've been thinking of this as the only good track from pendulum. And now i am told it's another pendulum? there's more stuff like this? Oh... i know what im gonna do tonight :). Exploring another soundscape.
i think the bad, bad, bad, bad in this is from Natural Born Killers. i've listened to this song many times and i just realized this. this is pleasing to me
at what time is the bad, bad, bad, bad?
It's at 5:28
1: This song sounds perfect in a video game.
2: To base a song around someone walking in heels satisfies the ears.
Well done Pendulum.
This is the perfect antidote to Insecurity.
I finally found this song again!!
Use to listen to this in school
Found this song after so much time listening to this is school on my own thinking what is this 😂
Listening to this masterpiece since 8 years
Anyone woke up from Coma? We are in shit times right now, but that song is still the same as 16 yrs ago - purrrrfect! 🤘🏻

The main wailing part actually says "die" in reverse.
you mean the part that sounds lije Gremlins?
How have I spent the last 16years thinking this was by the other Pendulum band?? 😅
Been looking for this.
i wish someone could get hold of an original copy of this album and upload better recordings and the rest of the tracks from it
Great track, shame this upload is so distorted though.
great song for demonstrating MPEG audio compression artifacts...
Top track.
i just did some digging and found out that there was actually an original pendulum that got disbanded before the present day pendulum was even created (i love dnb)
Interesting fact - the first ever dnb track released in vinyl in Australia was a remix of this song. Search Pendulum - Ever Since I was Born
still good 2020

If you like this, have a listen 🕺
Great song!
I have been listening and loving this song for over 20 years. Just to discover that the lyrics are taken from Aldous Huxley´s Brave new world and that is a totally different band.
Anyone know if the members produced other stuff after this album?
Reminds me of my journey in life into learning shamanism!
Love's as good as soma !!!
These guys did make future music, search "inauditus". I love the song " free"
Lol! I’m 71 and still love this as much as I did when it was first released. I’m trying to think of the movie in which it was part of the soundtrack. Was it 1984? Or maybe Logan’s Run?
Just read some comments and know it was associated with Aldous Huxley so going for 1984…

@DonnyRedNr1 Exactly what i thought, it was always questionable that pendulum (DnB) made such a beautiful song.
God this song is creepy lol. Love it tho. Gives me chills every time the girl moans and it makes me think of the forbidden video from The Ring lol. The whistling teapot?
@ioanabuzz its no that creepy, its alien and beautiful to hear, silence is creepy, it provokes the imagination, sound keeps us awake and can also put you asleep too, it did sound a little creepy years ago i do agree, i guess my imagination puts fear to sleep and desire awakens to the sound of music like this ;)
There is tons of music similar to this, a favourite of mine is Aphex Twin - Flim.. It's kinda similar, unfortunately I am not really sure what the genre is called.

This song freaked me the fuck out back in the day. The video was a let-down.
Merci Lou je t
@Peapodmaster They are perfectly capable of making beautiful music as well, check out Pendulum - Plastic World.
Does anyone know how I can own this and play through on an iPod? Can't find on iTunes under pendulum or coma. Not tried spotify
go to convert2mp3.net. copy and paste url to the the video link. convert. download. go to download file on your pc and drag the song to your music file. go to itunes, file, add file to library! Easy as.....
Buy music in a format you actually own, and will continue to own for as long as you want despite any corporate licensing. I recommend ripping CDs. And get off my lawn.
Still a great bit of interesting music.
