I am a woman, my wife is a man! It's orange, it can't be bad... they got a different approach to demomaking, that's what makes them unique, you either like them or loathe them. I like them I can't help it. And this demo is one of their most representative works. So you better watch it.

one of my favourite demos.. i love it.. dune rulezZ! orange rulezz!
This is a kind of demo you love or hate. I must be a strange man, since I hate the music :)
The lyrics,the music... i don't know what's better.. one of my favourite demos.
great !!!!
all in this demo are good

Great (and original) effects, kewl wicked music...and weird gfx!
Can't get any better ;^)

For sure it's the most original music i've ever heard in a demo (out of 'Different Engine, which i like almost as much)
My favoritest demo from Orange. Funny!!!
really great stuff and one of the first PC demos i liked! havn't seen it for a couple of years... so checking this page means i will check it again this evening. as far as i remember - i loved it!
Tis demo has got quite funny storyline , but at the same time it's full of nice effects and some pretty pictures. A very good demo from Orange.
Ahh, I remember that assembly .. and the compo was not too bad. One of orange best demos
3.1415..
Hm, I actually own the Linguaphone vinyl from which the whole "I am a woman" stuff came. I don't recall that man being ambivalent about his sex on the original records, though.
This might not be Orange's best demo technically, but it's has loads of atmosphere and a striking soundtrack. Recommended.
I must put a vote on it.
cool music.

ORANGE!
Very nice.
If you absolutely must come up with something negative about it then it would be the lack of consistency in the design.

this rocks!
this baby kicks ass!
this is very, very good
supercool!
yeeep, anyway I 'feel' it lacks of anything... but I don't really know 'what' x')
I found the sound samples interesting, but not the demo.
Hmmm, this demo is truly, imho, one of the most over adored demos. I wonder what the comments would have been, if it had been made by some other "lesser" group. The only thing this has going for it is the cool sound track. Except for that, the visuals are not great, the demo is empty, and overall it bites.
Finally someone had the balls to say it. Thank you, Nezbie. :)
oh shut up tomaes :)
this is special in its own way
And personally
I would marry mr.black anytime
And be mrs. black

NeZbiE == Correct.
Name recognition has a lot to do with this... I've seen some much better demos from 1997 and earlier. The only thing I can really appreciate are the particle effects, as I hate the music. Sorry.
No vote from me.

can anyone make a divx so that us with win2k can watch this again... without setting up the old machine again..
The name of the group has nothing to do with it. This demo rocks. The music rocks. The feeling rocks.
Nelius: I second that.

Nice surreal theme. The effects may not be much on paper but they're used to great effect and everything here is pure orange style. My orange favourite is megablast but this is fighting for the second with some others...
Superbe
emblematic
Cool concept
Thumbs up! Really great Orange-style demo!
I remember watching this demo so much on my old box! Very, very cool piece of electronic art!
a classic
I fucking hate it!!!!!!!!!!!
The music is very good, but the sync is not so good (at least not in the video version), still a thumb up.

Do I remember it? Yes! Is it top quality? No!
But the first part is the achievement here.

Classic.
i remember hearing the music for this and then having to wait several years before i could actually see the demo - it just wouldn't run on any pc i had at the time. still.. worth the wait :)
Quite good.
Oh thats great. The effects just rule. Plus, gaiasword exploded.
Should have won.
yep
Someone told me your mother was a hamster while I thought we was a giraffe...
fuck.. typo... "while i thought she was a giraffe"
kaneel: No, no! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

this is one of my very first watched demos that made me love demoscene.

o:
definitely wont rewatch, i liked nothing about it!
Btw. here's a better youtube-video, but the first scene seems to be broken.
This would be awesome if the drums weren't weird enough to make you think there was some weird skips going on. Played the IT in various players on different to make sure it just wasn't some classic Gravis Ultraclicks(tm).
Otherwise, would have been amazing :(

golden age.
Not love at first sight for me, but I came around liking it. Very clever use of samples and that one particle effect is just too damn pretty. ;)
Moody and edgy.
Okay, I have to take away piggy because of the dads on boat drinking brew. But still, what's up with the goofy drums?
I love the effect at 1min27
Haven't seen this in a long time. It hasn't lost its fascination. A timeless masterpiece!
What psenough said! :D
immortal!

Long overdue thumb.
she's twelve years old
I am my daughter
My wife's name is John. He's 12 years old.
Love this, so trippy and amazing music. seems like a nod to Boards of Canada
cool
Yes, orange still has the best particles. At this point they had two years of incredible releases behind them -- and this one book-ends that period nicely, bringing together orange's more moody and their more playful sides.
Cool effects and music. Funny lyrics.
Classic 2k effects with a surreal, mesmerizing soundtrack. Still love it 24 years later and re-watch it every so often.
