Lyrics:
Take me down, 6 underground,
The ground beneath your feet,
Laid out low, nothing to go,
Nowhere a way to meet.
I've got a head full of drought, down here
So far off losing out, round here,
Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace.
Calm me down, bring it round,
Too way high off your street,
I can see like nothing else,
In me you're better than I wanna be.
Don't think 'cos I understand, I care,
Don't think 'cos I'm talking, we're friends,
Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace.
Talk me down, safe and sound,
Too strung up to sleep,
Wear me out, scream and shout,
Swear my time's never cheap.
I fake my life like I've lived; too much,
I take whatever you're given; not enough,
Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace.

The 90's will always be "ten years ago".
-
For those of us that are old enough, this song evokes memories of a time and world that no longer exists.
-
A classic. The 90’s was a golden era.
-
Still listening and I'm 64 YO....good things never die!
-
The sting....of getting old........but the song never will. LONG LIVE THE 90s.
-
In the big scheme of things, I'm not sure there were many better years than 1997. Relative peace, perfect 90s pop culture vibes, and just fun. Now it seems like it was the last gasp of greatness before everyone kind of went insane.
-
Youtube is the closet thing we have to a time machine !
-
Dear 1990s, We fucked up, will you take us back?
-
Never. Ever. Ever. Do I get tired of hearing this song. Just a stone cold classic!
-
Sneaker Pimps, Massive Attack, Portishead, Morcheeba, and Moloko were some of my favs of trip hop. 6 Underground is so relative with me.
-
I am eternally grateful I was 16 in 1994 and 20 in 1998. Those four years were absolutely amazing in music. Every single week there was at least one awesome single
-
I remember catching this video on mtv at like 2:00 in the morning, 1996 or 1997. It was one of those rare gems that I knew by just one listen that it would be a favorite for my whole life. Remember the torture of having to wait until you could get to a record store and buy the cd so you could hear it again?! Even though at the time it was time consuming and annoying, in retrospect that’s what made finding songs so special.
-
Who is still rocking to this jam in 2024 ?
-
One of those songs that makes you 120% more cooler than anyone on the planet just by listening to it.
-
The last time period to have its own identity not just defined by what technology exists.
-
"Don't think cos I understand, I care" - top lyric of 1997
-
Finally, an official upload! A 1990s trip-hop masterpiece. Even in 2022 this song is amazing and hasn't aged at all!
-
This woman, in this video, at that particular moment in history, roughly speaking, embodied what can best be described as the apex of human beauty.
-
This was a great time to be in your 20’s.
-
My brain has never left 90's dimension, every time I hear timeless classics from the 90's I am transported back in time/home. 💞👌😊👍
