In a bold and emotional reimagining of a beloved classic, music duo ASPARAGUSproject and acclaimed vocalist Alisha Larry have joined forces to release a breathtaking cover of “To the Moon and Back,” originally made famous by Savage Garden. The cover is now available on all major streaming platforms, accompanied by a cinematic music video on YouTube.
This captivating rendition brings new life to the 1996 global hit, offering listeners a fresh perspective while preserving the emotional resonance and lyrical beauty of the original. ASPARAGUSproject’s modern, atmospheric production paired with Alisha Larry’s powerful, soulful vocals creates a version that is both nostalgic and entirely new.
A Collaboration Rooted in Artistic Chemistry ASPARAGUSproject, known for their genre-blending soundscapes and emotionally driven music, have built a name for themselves through innovative arrangements and collaborative projects. Their partnership with Alisha Larry, a rising star praised for her expressive vocal delivery and stage presence, marks a new chapter in both artists’ creative journeys.
The moment we started working with Alisha, everything just clicked, said a representative from the ASPARAGUSproject. “We knew we had something special. ‘To the Moon and Back’ has always been a song close to our hearts, and with Alisha’s voice, we were able to rediscover its magic in a completely new way.” Honoring the Past, Embracing the Present Originally released by Savage Garden in 1996, “To the Moon and Back” quickly became a defining anthem of the late ’90s, praised for its poetic lyrics and melodic depth. The song explores themes of longing, emotional vulnerability, and the search for unconditional love—elements that resonate as deeply today as they did nearly three decades ago.
In their cover, ASPARAGUSproject and Alisha Larry remain faithful to the emotional core of the original while infusing it with ambient textures, cinematic dynamics, and a slower, more intimate pacing. The result is a version that feels timeless yet refreshingly contemporary.
“Our goal wasn’t to replicate the original—it was to reinterpret it,” said Alisha Larry. “I wanted to find the emotional truth in the lyrics and bring that to the forefront in a way that felt personal and honest. It’s about connection, and that’s what we hope listeners will feel.
”A Visual Experience to Match The release is accompanied by a visually stunning music video, directed by indie filmmaker Dylan Marek, which captures the song’s dreamlike tone and emotional intensity. Shot across a series of surreal, moonlit landscapes, the video follows a narrative of inner exploration and emotional release, echoing the themes of the track.
“With this video, we wanted to go beyond performance,” said Marek. “It’s a visual poem—something that evokes feelings as much as it tells a story. Alisha’s performance on camera is as powerful as her voice.”
Early Reception & What’s Next Since its release, the track has garnered praise from fans and critics alike, with early reviewers calling it “a stunning reimagining of a pop classic” and “a hauntingly beautiful version that brings the song to a new generation.”
The collaboration has already sparked excitement about future projects from both the ASPARAGUSproject and Alisha Larry. While no official announcements have been made, both parties have hinted at more joint releases in the near future.
