After it was remixed by William Orbit, it was released on 25 March 1991 as the fourth single from their 1990 album 'En-Tact'. A duet between Colin Angus and Plavka, it reached number 29 on the UK Singles Chart, their most successful single before the re-release of "Move Any Mountain" four months later. A remix 12-inch with remixes by Jack Dangers from Meat Beat Manifesto was released six weeks after the regular single, on 6 May 1991. In the song, the title is not pronounced the usual way ('hy'per-real), but as four distinct syllables, with the stress on the second syllable: hy-'per'-ri-al. The kanji on the cover might be ('tsu', suspended). Allmusic's John Bush deemed the song an "infectious techno-pop anthem". VersionsAll released in 1991, except 'En-tact' (1990) and 'On Air The BBC Sessions' (1993). The "Hyperreal" single was released in five different formats in the UK: 7", Cassette, CD, 12" and Remix 12". ReferencesCategory:1990 songs Category:1991 singles Category:The Shamen songs | |
