In the Meantime Video (MV)




"In the Meantime" is the debut single of English alternative rock band Spacehog, from their debut album, Resident Alien (1995). It samples the Penguin Cafe Orchestra song "Telephone and Rubber Band". Released in 1996, the single peaked atop the US Billboard Mainstream Rock chart and the UK Rock Chart.

It additionally reached number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 29 on the UK Singles Chart while reaching the top 50 in Australia, Canada, Iceland, New Zealand and Sweden.

About the meaning of the song, lead singer Royston Langdon said:
It's me trying to reach people. It's using some kind of metaphor of a worldly or inner-worldly search for the end of isolation, and the acceptance of one's self is in there. At the end of the day it's saying whatever you gotta do, it's OK, it's alright.

And I think that's also me talking to myself, getting through my own anxieties and fear of death. That's what it all comes down to. What's so beautiful about it is that it continues to connect with people.

Spacehog - In the Meantime Lyrics




And in the end we shall achieve in time
The thing they call divine
When all the stars will smile for me
When all is well and well is all for all
And forever after
Maybe in the meantime wait and see

Chorus
We love the all the all of you
Our lands are green and skies are blue
When all in all were just like you
We love the all of you

And when I cry for me I cry for you
With tears of holy joy
And did I ever say Id never play
Or fly toward the sun
Maybe in the meantime, somethings gone

Chorus

Well that sounds fine so Ill see you sunshine
Give my love to the future of the humankind
Okay, okay, its not okay.
While its on my mind theres a girl that fits the crime
For a future love dream that Im still to find
But in the meantime.

Chorus
