Thanks for the informations 
I've a funny anecdote : when TWM was released, I was only 10 years old, so more carefree than now. And when I came across Cosmic Girl, I thought to myself : "this guy irritate me! He's showing off with his Ferrari and his pals but he's ugly, he's not well-dressed bla bla bla..." I know I was stupid. Maybe I was influenced by french rap clips of the same time (most of them were pieces of shit).
And in 1999, Canned Heat changed my silly mind...  |

Happy Birthday TWM!
I love it so much! My first jami album! I think it was the first cd i bothered purchasing with my own money as well  Got it when i was on holiday in canada  (from walmart i think... or maybe it was costco... oh who cares anyway ) I remember eagerly searching for it among the shelves; peeling away the plastic wrapper and opening it up at my aunt's house; my cousin poking fun at the weird name Jamiroquai; the wonderful fresh papery smell of the lyrics booklet as i flicked through it (if i sniff hard enough i can sometimes still smell it ); listening to it the first time....

If my memory serves me well it was today (Sept. 10th) TWM was released in the rest of Europe (Sweden, France, Germany etc). So I will celebrate today rather than yesterday.

Happy Birthday to Travelling Without Moving or, for the friends, TWM
My closest memory when the album came out is 'Cosmic Girl' I gotta say. I was 10 years old, TOO YOUNG, I didn't even listen to music, but I do remember seeing that video on tv, I know I did, along with 'Virtual Insanity'.
I love that album very much, it was the second one I bought after 'Synkronized', I bought it in 1999 too. The rest is known history.
But I'm happy to be part of this album, even that little bit.
Great post Ed.

10 years...i must say i discover jamiroquai because a tv special where i listen-and i watch-one of the best music videos i've see and actually is the album i chosse to play all the summer...is on the top of my jamiroquai albums, fowllow to dynamite and eope 
i love this album, i discover the band with the cosmic girl video and now i feel happy to that time when i was listen and watching really excited that car fantasy(yea, that video is a car fantasy for me...oh god, holy shit, every time when i watch the video i feel like im jay driving the lamborghini and there's no limit to stop to drive...)
i love every track of this album, this things dont happen with sinkronized or a funk oddisey...even when i dont know where i buy the album that this album is on the guinnes records, for me this album is very special...i love to play in a hot sunny day in my city, when im in the move to get out to the roads...
and im still looking my cosmic girl, but she's far away but i dont give up, im sure she's close to me, dont ask me now but i feel so good...
