Emilie Simon Space Oddity

[toybox181]

I can't get over how good this is, she reinvented this song and made it her own. Great job here!

I'm a big fan of this cover; she really owns it. Oh, and thanks for not making a creepy stalker video.

major tom? that was a german song...

[Sadshadow]

my friend said this song is about drugs and how this dude is off in lala land because of drugs and he misses his family..

I don't know if thats true or not but its an interesting look at the song..

@Sadshadow: I support your friend's view. David Bowie was a heavy drug user at that time, in the lyrics there was also "protein pills". It's interesting to know too that Emilie Simon herself has a song about drug (Opium).

@ISTeslaYT Major Tom is a fictional character created by David Bowie that is featured in his songs Space Oddity, Ashes to Ashes and Hello Spaceboy. The song "Major Tom" is a separate song written by Peter Schilling about the same Bowie creation Major Tom. Shiny Toy Guns did to a cover to Schilling's "Major Tom."

Ground Control to Major Tom

Ground Control to Major Tom

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

[tetiina]

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

[tetiina]

Ground Control to Major Tom Your circuit's dead, is there 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.

[CarolyneChannel]
