Sharing Space is the second full-length album by Australian progressive rock band Cog, released on 12 April 2008. The album debuted at number 2 on the Australian Music Charts. The album was produced in Weed, California by Sylvia Massy, who produced their first album, The New Normal and has worked with artists such as Tool and Spiderbait. Midway through recording, their record label, Difrnt Tunes, had a change of management. This forced the band to speed up the recording process, which was already over budget, recording the second half of the album on a 7-day-a-week schedule. The "bodies upon the gears" speech at the beginning of "The Movie's Over" was a speech given by Mario Savio in 1964 at the University of California, Berkeley.
Music videos for the songs "What If", "Bird of Feather" and "Are You Interested?" have been produced.
3 songs from the album featured in the Triple J Hottest 100 in 2007 and 2008 collectively; with "What If" at 47 in 2007, "Bird of a Feather" at 31 and "Are You Interested?" at 97 in 2008.

Famous quotes containing the words sharing and/or space:
“The traditional American husband and father had the responsibilities—and the privileges—of playing the role of primary provider. Sharing that role is not easy. To yield exclusive access to the role is to surrender some of the potential for fulfilling the hero fantasy—a fantasy that appeals to us all. The loss is far from trivial.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
“Sir Walter Raleigh might well be studied, if only for the excellence of his style, for he is remarkable in the midst of so many masters. There is a natural emphasis in his style, like a man’s tread, and a breathing space between the sentences, which the best of modern writing does not furnish. His chapters are like English parks, or say rather like a Western forest, where the larger growth keeps down the underwood, and one may ride on horseback through the openings.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
