Hi,

for me TSAMH is one of Scooters best singles they have ever done next to Hyper Hyper. It is kind of scooters singles of the very beginning )with few words and much music only) and the song is very magical and happy at once. Fantastic Trak!

What do you think about this Track?

Hm...It's a good track I think. The album version was better for me, but it's still good.
Finally, after so many years, HP sings on a single track. The Auto-Tune effect fits his voice very well.
I vote for: classic Scooter track. I can't say "nothing more" because it's really good but not one of the bests.

I don't know. I like that track but it's not among the very best in my books, don't know why. And these days the album version is better to me. Amazing b-side, though. :D
:rolleyes: This is a signature.

I think the single version of TSAMH is nothing less than plain mediocrity. But it's not one of their worst, which is why my vote goes to it being little else than a classic Scooter track. A track that I still occasionally give a listen to when I'm in the midst of suffering from the horrors of boredom.

The album version will always be the superior track for me. It reaffirms my belief that this piece was never even single material to begin with. State Of Mind or Where The Beats... were much better candidates in my book. But I did thoroughly enjoy the version played in Hamburg; that I'll concede. I fell in love with the autotune effect in that performance after the very first time listening to it. And yeah, it still sounds kinda cool to me now. But the single has never meant anything more to me than an average track. Nothing special or memorable.

Bit on the negative side.... :(

TSAMH is a very memorable track for me. I love it, and it really brings forth feelings of nostalgia whenever I hear it. The whole song, albeit very simple, is still amazing. The single version is superior for me 8)

For me, it's probably the UTROTT single I listen to the most. :thumbsup:

I actually really like the video, it's very cool to see that old Czech army truck going through the streets of Wernigerode and blasting Scooter music ;)

Exactly my opinion ;) It;s really a great and interesting video, but ofcourse not as good as TI SENTO, that was almost like a movie :)

i think this track was made in a very high quality, it could have been the fact that we had a trance based single for ths first time in ages and it made a big change to not hear jump and the clapping sounds, also i find the video well made too, again a normal kinda video for the first time in ages, bar ti sento

i also like the album version too, and in ways this track has two sides, the hardcore kinda IYP side and the chilled out bit of trance with sung lyrics, so for me this is one of scooters better tracks, overall to me the bagpipes let the song down, but not to the point that i dont like it, i would have just prevered something else that all


oh and one more thing, is it me or does the flying dutchman look a bit like jay frog,

A major problem that I've never been able to look past is its partial sameness with I'm Raving, which has become so redundant now that they finally removed the track from their tour tracklists. And because I'm Raving was so ludicrously overplayed, and you have this obvious similarity that I've been unable to overlook, the same feelings of irksomeness arise. I know the two tracks have been compared and comparisons have been drawn from the likeliness of them in the past, and I wholeheartedly agree with alot of the comments that were made.

So because of its lack of uniqueness, the option that it's no more than a classic Scooter track is further justified. I just don't think TSAMH is anything remotely special and should be treated with no more than it deserves.

Fair enough ;) That's indeed a good explenation, I never thought about it that way. But I in general am a fan of bagpipe Scooter tracks, so that's why probably I appreciated it a bit more as some others so to speak ;) It's all about personal taste in the end. But your point is very accurate, yes ;) But still I would say that yet the autotune singing HP voice is in a way yet an unique part of the track ;)

According to my opinion is TSAMH one of the best singles of Scooter. With a high recognition value, especially the bagpipe version which I heard at the Hamburg gig in March of this year. :)
At the moment: Here is enough space for broken dreams! ;( ;( ;(

And it isn't just the missing individuality. Do you remember the huge UTROTT teaser trailer? One of first things I think about when I listen to the album version of TSAMH is that incredible sense of wonderment upon watching that sexy video for the first time. It got me so excited for the album that I watched that thing continuously. And strangely enough, it was See Your Smile that caught my attention the most. Anyway, I'm certain that because it was one of the best sounding pieces from that video, my ability to like the heavily edited single had been consequently corrupted. Where Michael and H,P, are jumping in unison and in slow motion, it just stuck with me... Everything from the 'in your house' (or is it my?) sample to the awesome build up, and finally to H.P's exquisitely auto-tuned voice, goes in hand in hand with it. Bagpipes? Not so much for me. But you're right, it is a more or less an issue of taste and an aesthetic thing. But in my gracious and much sought after opinion, the album version is better. 8)

I totally agree with you, May.
The In My House part totally caught me. I think that's still awesome, but for the first time it was pretty unique. That sound with the slow motion made me feel free and very happy. I just waited for a single release of it. Then, it happened and I felt great. But after hearing the new single, I listened to it a million times, and, after so many weeks, the album version. I just forgot that great feeling because of the damn bagpipes. Then, I knew how easily can I forget something good.

Right?!?! That scene with Michael and H.P. is alot more euphorically mesmerizing than the video for the radio edit. Even though those short video segments were unrelated to the track itself, that little bit of footage alone is considerably more effective at capturing the trance-like quality of the track. Driving around a town in an army track just seems totally unrelatable and irrelevant. I don't personally see the video as some ingenious milestone, just a unmemorable obligation of sorts. And that goes for the radio edit too. It just doesn't possess the same ambient quality that the album release does.

And the album version is much more suitable for a stadium. Primarily thanks to the slow trancey sound that makes it so awesome. So if TSAMH is played next year in Hamburg, I hope the original is played instead. Fingers crossed, eh? Yeaaaah.
