  • Although I love Bowie, I have to admit that Pagan's Mind did an awesome job covering this song. It's heavy and powerful while maintaining that Bowie feel

  • Holy hell, I LOVE this!!! Insta-favorite :DDDDD

    Rock on, Starman!

  • Still like behemoths cover better :)

  • OH FUCK! IT'S SOO GOOD.

  • the behemoth cover fuckin' rules!!

  • @jav211590 Hell yeah it does!

  • bowie is the only singer to have a character in his songs

  • @adacom1000 not true. Red hot chilipeppers have had characters in some of their songs.

  • @KirbySonicTeam And Green Day

  • @adacom1000 Nope. Not that his characters aren't great, he's just not the only one to do it. Certainly not the first, hopefully not the last.

  • I wish I had this album ):

  • Comment removed

  • FINALLY, I found the best, original version of Hallo Spaceboy. I was getting tired of finding "Pet Shop Boys" version!!

  • where can i download this version?!! i can only find the psb's one

  • CLASSIC...simple great...

  • The only good version of this song is the song itself.

  • Pagan's Mind version is far superior.

  • This chaos is killing me...

  • I just want to say that Pagan's Mind's version are better.. Bowie himself told Pagan's that their version was the best ever made :'D

  • @Kris10ansen But bowie is always better.

  • @Kris10ansen Like Gary Numan he'll be the first to say if he hears a better version of one of his songs.

  • had a suckie day

    having a drink and trying to find more bowie id love after diamond dogs.

    and i love this song.. i might have to check out outside

  • CHECK OUT BIBA NOVA 'THIRD SEX FROM THE SUN'

  • I remember getting a best of with the pet shop boys version of this album and being disapointed. I thought 'Outside' and 'Earthling' were terrible albums, but they aren't. In fact, 'Outside' Is becoming one of my favourite Bowie albums!

  • Outside is one of the most underestimated albums of David Bowie. I always found it a pity that he didn't went through with the project only because it didn't sell well enough. It is such a rich album, and it has a similar detachment in its depiction of the various characters like Bladerunner. Along with Earthling the best from Bowie in the nineties.

  • @dajohnthomas69

    indeed: OUTSIDE is the best - I really hope he'll continue the project

  • I love this song.

  • This and the Pagan's Mind cover kick ass

  • amazing album, one of his best imo. i used to not like it but it really grew on me

    this chaos is killing me

  • ...your silhouette is so stationary......

  • this is really funkin good. industrial electronica dance type stuff. Kind of like Nine Inch Nails, Prodigy or new artist AllFlaws.

    These dudes are on some other level

  • Actually Bowie once performed this song with NIN.

  • @valtronaatixx David made more than one alter ego man. Major Tom, then Ziggy came about I believe.

  • no... Major Tom=Astronaut. Ziggy Stardust=Starman. Get it straight.

  • He has multiple Alter egos, major tom was in his first hit,'space oddity' ziggy stardust was made up of stardust cowboys which scored 277 on rolling stones 500 greatest songs of all time

  • We'll never forget, 1/24/97

  • holy shit this is way better than PSB's version

  • watch?v=N-BJNppJgOw

    Pagan's minds cover.. Its a 1000 times better than both of them haha =))

  • @blackkat77 the proper version

  • dude who is major tom?

  • "Major Tom is a fictional astronaut created by David Bowie, appearing in his songs "Space Oddity", "Ashes to Ashes" and "Hallo Spaceboy".

    There's more detail on him on wikipedia.

  • a character Bowie invented that's in some of his songs, like this one (hallo spaceboy), space oddity and ashes to ashes.

  • It was the first astronaut to go to the observatory on Jupiter. David Bowie was really great friends with him until one day when a Jovian Whale shrouded him in sulfur, killing him immediately. Bowie was greatly disturbed by this, hence him writing songs about it.

  • @HappyHumanism No, Major Tom was a fictional astronaut created by David Bowie. Wtf are you talking about?

  • @SarcasmIsNOTNeeded It was a joke.

  • @HappyHumanism On Jupiter? Is this fiction or fact?

  • Pagan's Mind does an awesome job covering this song, I like it better than DB's version, and I usually like originals better..

  • behemoth cover is great \M/

  • Well, like ove both artists, and I like both versions equally. I think D. Bowie's version has this chaotic, more stressy feeling to it, compared to PSB. PSB's version sounds a bit more relaxing and cool, like being in space. I'd listen to both anyday.

  • Awesome song ! ... but what a ridiculous discussion ...

    Love this song anyway

  • I don't know why all you whinny little pricks are saying the pet shop boys suck and all that shit David Bowie didn't think so. So why don't you just shut your mouths and have a real appreciation for music like some of us do. bunch of little bitches.

  • @Jimimarshallhendrix2 you are 16 years old and were 15 when you wrote that shut the fuck up with your "little bitches" nonsense you are ridiculous.

  • ok what is with you people?! there is NO pet shop boys version!!! David bowie Wrote it therefore it is HIS song!!! those petshop queers couldnt write a masterpeice like this!!! they pretty much ruined this song

  • @SoftballChickie18 Just so you know, attempting to insult gay people by calling them gay is a bit silly. Good job stating the obvious. Though dunno that chris is. But anyhow, Bowie seems to have been pretty down with them "ruining" his song and has performed this live with them...

  • I like the lo-fi feeling of this. It's great.

  • Being a fan of both artists...I have to say, maybe because I heard the PSB version first, I like it better, but this is surely grittier.

  • The duet version with the Petshop Boys is 1000 times better this this.

  • what the fuck? are you serious? the pet shop queers made this song fuckin' blow. this version is fucking beastly

  • This is a pile of shit, your taste is up ur ass u homaphobic freak!

  • The Pet Shop Boys version has no soul, this is a much grittier and much catchier version in my opinion. Shame that it had to be popularized to be a single :(

  • Who the hell are you to say how good or not someone's opinion is. Everyone likes different things. You would do well to remember that.

  • And like what the uck are you gonna do if I dont??? I can give my opinion on someone elses opinion all I want. Get over yourself.

  • Freedom of speech doesn't give you license to be an asshole, so why don't you get over yourself!

  • It seems to have given you that license...............so fuck off

  • I wasn't calling you names smart guy so no it was not. You got a real fucking attitude asshole.

  • Asshole is a name! Get over yourself prick.
