"Another Universe" is the title track from Arno Carstens' debut solo album, released in 2003 after his time as the lead singer of the South African rock band Springbok Nude Girls. The song is a standout in South African alternative rock, blending introspective lyrics with a soaring, melodic chorus that showcases Carstens' distinctive voice. The track reflects a shift from the raw energy of his band work to a more polished, introspective sound, with themes of escape, freedom, and searching for a better reality. The lyrics, like “From the galaxy of blues to a universe we choose / No more crying and just maybe somebody to hold,” evoke a yearning for connection and transcendence, wrapped in bluesy rock and indie influences.

The song was re-recorded in 2014 featuring Johnny Clegg on the African Bow, adding a unique cultural layer to the original. The album itself is noted for its depth, with tracks like “Something We Started” and “Neon Girl” complementing the title track’s emotional resonance. Carstens has described the song as “a gift from the gods,” and it remains a career-defining piece, widely celebrated for its emotional impact and enduring appeal in South Africa’s music scene.
