Lyrics:
Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground 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
Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Liftoff
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 very different today
For here
Am I 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 still
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
About David Bowie:
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

This video is pretty saturated, but we can’t really question it. It’s Bowie

The original Star Man. R.I.P., David. Your light will never dim.

1 of this worlds best songs of all time. I get chills every time I hear it, every time. Bowie you genius

[@jettcrue211]

my grandpa recently passed last Saturday. one whole week without him. I'm so glad I grew up listening to rock n roll. I'm gonna miss his random phone calls where we would sing this song together. He was only 60, looked 50 and was young at heart. He was in a car club, he was amazing at building lowriders. He'll always be missed by us. him and I were so damn close. I love him so much. RIP tata.

No matter how highly regarded David Bowie is, I still feel like he and his music are completely underrated. I can't explain it...

hey you should look up a band called the Doublejumps if you like Bowie

[@RockfordRoe]

My college played this during the eclipse. It was the most beautiful combination of sight and sound I've ever experienced.

I would love this song to be played at the mars landing

[@OmOhm-gn7yz]

This song is a MASTERPIECE! If you just sing it, you WILL just access most of the upper ballons of your lungs, go out of note and feel like floating, but then, you can't come back and keep singing. One must pay attention to it. Masterpiece. PERFECT!

[@mehbuteh]

I've always seen this song as metaphor for going into the unknown of life. Life is scary, odd, fearful, and empty but full of things.

[@morna45]

Yes, agree. To me, it was and still is about letting go and discovering your true self, without all the conveniences of a support system. David Bowie was a genius.

Not going into the unknown life but for sure fleeing from a scary life... and thus going from the frying pan into the fire ! As a reminder, an extract from 'Ashes to ashes': Ashes to ashes, funk to funky We know Major Tom's a junkie Strung out in heaven's high Hitting an all-time low

I think he actually canonically survives

@@LucyWest370 heard he becomes the starman

[@LucyWest370]

@@CherryDKaya not sure about the canonicity of that one but he does reappear in Ashes to Ashes and I think a couple of other songs.

[@LucyWest370]

Yes according to google he appears in three other songs after Space Oddity, but it does not mention the Starman.

[@reechforthebleech]

There is a skeleton astronaut in the Blackstar video so maybe that’s where he ended up.

My navy buddy turned me on to Bouy ( his pronunciation), bout summer of 76...then our ship went from our California home port, to Seattle WA for a couple months,,,& we went to see Bob Seger not far from the Space Needle there, & the poster at the ticket window said Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet band, 7 pm-10 pm...& we talked about it showing no opening act...thought Nothing of it...Party Forward...Then Bob wrapped up around 9:30 with a short Encore song...So Bob announced " Don't go anywhere folks...Please welcome Mr. David Bowie stage left"!!! He busted out with Diamond Dogs, & we about fell out on the floor!!! What a pleasing surprise!!! He must of played until midnight...all for $6.00!!! Never forget it ...I was 18 years old😅

[@dustythe2nd188]

N Q, I wonder what he means when he sings that line. "Tell my wife I lover her very much, she knows" Does he mean "she knows" he is gay? Or does he mean, "she knows" I love her? Any thoughts on that anyone? Dusty the 2nd.

[@dustythe2nd188]

I love that lyric very much, you know.
