"Cosmic Girl" is a song and single by the British band Jamiroquai. Released in very early 1997, it achieved great chart success, peaking at #6. While the poppy disco single, and especially its chart performance had received mixed reviews from critics, it didn't fail to become one of the better-known tracks of the band, and a concert staple. Live versions usually last for 7 to 8 minutes, nearly double the duration of the album version. In 2006, it was reissued as part of the "Classic Club Mixes" series which also included Space Cowboy, Deeper Underground, Love Foolosophy and Alright. The B-side to the single was an instrumental "Slippin' 'n' Slidin'", a rather obscure song originating from another old Jamiroquai tune called "Mr Boogie", which was a live-only song. "Slidin'", just like "Mr Boogie", also had a vocal version.
In mid-July 2007 Paris Hilton announced that she has recorded a cover of the song, and that it will be featured on her yet-to-be-named second album. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news_detail.html?sku=2033
