Jamiroquai released Space Cowboy as a single from their second album, The Return of the Space Cowboy. The song became famous for its way of talking about cannabis, which is seen on the cover: a handmade paper character, the Buffalo Man, with marijuana leaves scattered around. In the video, there are also blue lights that look like leaves, and the lyrics include phrases such as "interplanetary good vibe zone" and "at the speed of cheeba".

The controversy reached a British politician, who requested it to be censored. Because of this, the U.S. version of the video removed the leaves, and the radio version replaced "cheeba" with a blank space. Despite everything, the song became one of the most recognizable of the group, within the acid jazz style.
