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 gods love be with you

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
Four, three, two, one, lift off

This is ground control to Major Tom
You4ve really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now its time to leave the capsule if you dare

This is Major Tom to ground control
Im stepping through the door
And Im 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 theres nothing I can do

Though Im past one hundred thousand miles
Im feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell me wife I love her very much she knows

Ground control to Major Tom
Your circuits dead, there4s something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom ?..

Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet earth is blue
And theres nothing I can do. Space oddity, Bowie, by Natalie Merchant, Live, Neil Simon Theatre, New York, 1999.- Album : Tigerlily, 1995.

imho - many individuals can't accept change, cover versions are change of what is accepted norm. The influence of the original artist lives on through the inspirational renditions of others, to me, cover versions are a huge honor to the original artist. Thanks for posting this Downbythewater, it's lovely ;.)
