Not about the planet, eh.

In ancient times, the planet and the goddess were one and the same.

Space Oddity - David Bowie

[/QUOTE] I realize nothing on this or any other planet can beat the original, but I think this cover is mesmerizing. Full disclosure: I'm extremely biased because I was in the audience, with my jaw on the floor, but even so, I think it's a great cover.

Happy Rhodes - “Space Oddity” live.

(She has other space and moon songs but I don’t want to wear out my welcome.)

IMO your cite does not support your assertion. Please quote the part you think does support it.

ETA: The Machine - Moonward

Kiko and the Lavender Moon - Los Lobos

Grapefruit Moon - Tom Waits

I concede that 1969 now qualifies as ‘ancient times,’ being 50 years in the rearview mirror and all, but even back then we were easily able to distinguish between the two. :wink:

If you listen to one song scrolling through this thread, let it be:

Drive By Truckers: Putting People on the Moon

Did I miss it, or am I the first to mention CCR - “Bad Moon Rising”?

Genesis - “Dancing With The Moonlit Knight”

Little Feat - “Spanish Moon”


Old 97’s - “Weightless”

Buckwheat Zydeco - “Space Zydeco”

“Deep Blue Day” - Brian Eno

[From the album Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks, originally recorded in 1983 for a feature-length documentary movie using 35mm footage of the Apollo Moon missions called Apollo, later retitled For All Mankind. Another track from the album, accompanied by visuals of the Earth from Space: “An Ending (Ascent)”.]

Bike Ride to the Moon – The Dukes of Stratosphear
