I Hate Kate-Major Tom (Coming Home) [ Peter Schilling Cover ]

Track 9 of Embrace The Curse

Lyrics:

Standing there alone/ the ship is waiting/ all systems are go/ are you sure/ control is not convinced/ but their computer has the evidence/ no need to abort/ the countdown starts/ Watching in a trance/ crew is certain/ nothing left to chance/ all is working/ trying to relax/ up in a capsule/ "Send me up a drink"/ jokes Major Tom/ the count goes on/ 4-3-2-1/ Earth below us/ drifting falling/ floating weightless/ calling home/ Second stage is cut/ we're now in orbit/ stabilizers up/ running perfect/ starting to collect/ requesting data/ what will it effect/ when all is done/ thinks Major Tom/ back at ground control/ there is a problem/ go to rokects full/ not responding/ "Hello Major Tom"/ are you recieving/ turn the thrusters on/ We're standing by"/ there's no reply-/ I'm coming home

they skipped a verse

[ADude6]

Yeah, they did. I don't know why they did so since I heard the original one.

[micheltone]

che alguien me puede pasar letra en español de esrte temaaaaaaaaaaaa_D asi lo robo :P

[ADude6]

I hope so, is really embarrassing that I'm Chicano that I don't know of my half of my language. I Guess I can try?

[dms040382]

not a bad cover. they didn't bastardize the original

[ADude6]

Some people out there like the original one than this one, but I respect that. I have no problem with no one who hates this version. ^_^

[Scott00086]

Very rarely does a band cover an original and have it turn out better. If these guys didn't do just that, then they came god-awful close.

[maeseatila]

No, it's not.

GALE 4 LYFE

[TooHuman]

Uh, liked it.

[hoschiadedodi]

@shinegrove Of course the lyrics were different because it was a different song (and thus also the tune differs). Peter Schilling wrote his song as a response to 'space oddity', the Bowie song you are reffering to. Peter Schilling is the original artist.

@1994BaMBaM1994 david bowie sang space odisy in american, it was ok, peter schilling sand major tom in german in 1983 and then he sang it in english in '85 it was a great song, then shiny toy guns, and who ever the fuck this group is, they came and fucked it up BAD

@micheltone De pie allí solo su cohete está a la espera. Todos los sistemas están listos. ¿estás seguro? El control no está convencido de Pero el equipo tiene la evidencia No hay necesidad de abortar. La cuenta atrás comienza Mirando en un trance que la tripulación es cierto. Nada deja al azar todo es trabajo. Tratar de relajarse en la cápsula "Envíame un trago." chistes Major Tom. El recuento continúa 4 3 2 1 La Tierra debajo de nosotros Cayendo a la deriva flotando ingrávido

[shinegrove]

Ummm, no? The original 'Major Tom' was by David Bowie, though the lyrics were slightly different.

[TheNewageshit]

both versions r better than the original

[LtSurge659]

@evillvi77

YES.

[Bauglir100]

@1994BaMBaM1994 Actually the original artist (Peter Schilling) did it in English and in German.

[1994BaMBaM1994]
