Ground control to major TomGround control to major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground control to major Tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God's love be with you
This is ground control to major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
This is major Tom to ground control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look different today
For here
And I'm sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very scared
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows
Ground control to major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me major Tom?
Can you hear me major Tom?
Can you hear me major Tom?
Can you...
Here, am I floating round my tin can?
Far above the moon
Planet earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
What's the best music for outer space? Eno, Major Tom, Also Sprach Zarathrustra? These images made me think of the all those and a lot more. Probably Space Oddity first, though, that's why I went to the trouble of reprinting the lyrics.
What music do you hear when you think of space?
