Interstate 5 (song)

"Interstate 5" is a song by The Wedding Present. It was released as the first single from the album Take Fountain. The single was released on November 15, 2004 on CD. Two versions of the song were initially released: the "original version" (the single version), which runs 6:07 in time, and the "extended version" (the album version), which runs 8:17 in time. The single version omits the mariachi outro found on the album version. A music video was produced for the song, featuring David Gedge singing and standing in the middle of a road while a woman (played by actress Catherine Bennett) runs through cities and scenes for the entire duration of the song. As she is running towards Gedge, he turns around to grab her and stop her from running. The video can be found on the bonus DVD from the compilation album Search for Paradise: Singles 2004-5, released in 2006.

gollark: So if it's before then and I don't lose a bunch of data it would obviously be possible to check such things.
gollark: I can check, I have a closed timelike curve connected to 2103.
gollark: The most interesting quantum thingy™ I'm aware of is Grover's algorithm, which seems to just magically be able to speed up some search-ish/brute-force things using magic.
gollark: Wait, so if I find a big prime number and use the `factor` command on it, I can actually say that my computer is outperforming leading-edge quantum computers at that task?
gollark: One day quantum computers might even be able to do useful things faster than my phone!
