from Seeking Major Tom (2011)

lyrics:
Standing there alone, the ship is waiting.
All systems are go. "Are you sure?"
Control is not convinced, but the computer
has the evidence. No need to abort.
The countdown starts.

Watching in a trance, the crew is certain.
Nothing left to chance, all is working.
Trying to relax up in the 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, calling home...

Second stage is cut. We're now in orbit.
Stabilizers up, runnning perfect.
Starting to collect requested data.
"What will it affect when all is done?"
thinks Major Tom.

Back at ground control, there is a problem.
"Go to rockets full." Not responding.
"Hello Major Tom. Are you receiving?
Turn the thrusters on. We're standing by."
There's no reply.

4, 3, 2, 1
Earth below us drifting, falling.
Floating weightless calling, calling home...

Across the stratosphere, a final message:
"Give my wife my love." Then nothing more.

Far beneath the ship, the world is mourning.
They don't realize he's alive.
No one understands, but Major Tom sees.
"Now the light commands this is my home,
I'm coming home."

Earth below us drifting, falling.
Floating weightless coming home...
Earth below us drifting, falling.
Floating weightless coming, coming home...

  • im disturbed yet interested in the same time...

  • Oh my god.

  • @risin1983 the talking is kinda the point..

  • WTF?

  • Y Shatner Y!!!??? This is not singing, this is just talking. I've never had a reason to hate on the RESCUE 911 host until now.

  • They should have made this a duet with Spock or Sulu !!!

  • full speed ahead captain

  • William Shatner has been and always will be a legend. It's daunting that he is 81 year of age and looks as good as he does. He's impacted alot of lives.

  • ruined? do you have any sense of culture?

  • ruined. -_-
