[Space Oddity] [David Bowie] [1969] [LP] Already one year before the moon landing David Bowie wrote the legendary song "Space Oddity". David Bowie was inspired less by Moon landing and much more by Stanley Kubrick's work "Space Odyssey". The Protagonist in Space Oddity "Major Tom" appears in "Ashes to Ashes" and again in “Hello Spaceboy". The fascination with space runs through many of his subsequent works. E.g. "Life on Mars", "Ziggy Stardust", "Dancing out in Space" or "Lazarus". . Back to the album "Space Oddity" which originally should be called "David Bowie". David Bowie's style could be described as folk rock. A mixture of John Lennon and Bob Dylan paired with psychedelic and avant-garde music. The most famous song is of course the brilliant "Space Oddity", this song alone obliges to own this record. . But also the other songs are excellent, e.g. "Letter to Hermione", or the almost 10 minute masterpiece "Cygnet Committee". The whole album is full of little precious pearls that are worth diving for! . . . . . “I recall how we lived On the corner of a bed And we′d speak of a Swedish room Of hessian and wood And we'd talk with our eyes Of the sweetness in our lives And tomorrows of rich surprise Some things we could do . In our madness We burnt one hundred days Time takes time to pass And I still hold some ashes to me An Occasional Dream . And we′d sleep, oh so close But not really close our eyes 'Tween the sheets of summer bathed in blue Gently weeping nights It was long, long ago And I can't touch your name For the days of fate were strong for you Danced you far from me . In my madness I see your face in mine I keep a photograph It burns my wall with time Time, An occasional dream Of mine” . . . .
