One of the pioneering groups of the Madchester movement in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the band's classic and most prominent lineup consisted of vocalist Ian Brown, guitarist John Squire, bassist Mani and drummer Reni. The band released their debut album, The Stone Roses, in 1989. The album was a breakthrough success for the band and received critical acclaim, many[a] regarding it as one of the greatest British albums ever recorded. At this time the group decided to capitalise on their success by signing to a major label. Their record label at the time, Silvertone, would not let them out of their contract, which led to a long legal battle that culminated with the band signing with Geffen Records in 1991.
The Stone Roses released their second album, Second Coming, in 1994, which received mixed reviews. The group soon disbanded after several line-up changes throughout the supporting tour, which began with Reni departing in early 1995, followed by Squire in April 1996. Brown and Mani dissolved the remains of the group in October 1996 following their appearance at Reading Festival.
Following much intensified media speculation, the Stone Roses called a press conference on 18 October 2011 to announce that the band had reunited and would perform a reunion world tour in 2012, including three homecoming shows in Heaton Park, Manchester. Plans to record a third album in the future were also floated but only two singles were released. In June 2012, Chris Coghill, the writer of a new film which is set during the Stone Roses 1990 Spike Island show, revealed that the band "have at least three or four new tracks recorded". In June 2013, a documentary about the band's reformation directed by Shane Meadows and titled The Stone Roses: Made of Stone was released.
In 2016, the Stone Roses released their first new material in two decades. The band members continued to tour until June 2017, at which point cryptic remarks by Brown indicated the band had split again, which was later confirmed in a 2019 interview with Squire.

Irrumpir en el cielo
Burst into heaven
Beso en las nubes de algodón
Kiss in the cotton clouds
Sábanas árticas y campos de trigo
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
No puedo dejar de bajar
I can't stop coming down
Tu cabeza encogida
Your shrunken head
Mirándome arriba
Looking down on me above
Envíame a casa como una piedra de elefante
Send me home like an elephant stone
Para aplastar mi sueño de amor
To smash my dream of love
Soñando hasta que se pone el sol
Dreaming till the sun goes down
Y la noche se convierte en día
And night turns into day
Las habitaciones están vacías, tengo muchas
Rooms are empty i've got plenty
Podrías mudarte de inmediato
You could move in right away
Parece que hay un agujero en mis sueños
Seems like there's a hole in my dreams
En mis sueños en mis sueños
In my dreams in my dreams
Por los cielos
Down through the heavens
Ahogarse en las nubes de algodón
Choke in the cotton clouds
Sábanas árticas y campos de trigo
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
No puedo dejar de bajar
I can't stop coming down
Tu cabeza encogida
Your shrunken head
Mirándome arriba
Looking down on me above
Envíame a casa como una piedra de elefante
Send me home like an elephant stone
Para aplastar mi sueño de amor
To smash my dream of love
¿Tu cama y estantería se fueron?
Did your bed and bookshelf go
Y corre, corre, huye
And run run run away
Estas cuatro paredes vieron subir y bajar
These four walls saw the rise and fall
Y tu escapada de medianoche
And your midnight getaway
Parece que hay un agujero en mis sueños
Seems like there's a hole in my dreams
O eso parece
Or so it seems
Sin embargo, ya nada significa nada
Yet nothing means anything anymore

You replaced it with the real version after my last post haha!!

@Daniel Warren This is the John Leckie mix. The slightly longer version is the Peter Hook mix, which I personally prefer
Daniel Warren
Never mind, just downloaded this and reversed it. This version is really cool

So what are the differences exactly between this and the 3:22 version? I've only noticed there were two versions of this song now.

I saw your comment in every FF5 video claiming that's not the real song. Guess you were not crazy after all lol
