Ever wonder what it's like to be in a room full of people w/ their multiple laptops/iphones, all playing Kate Bush's cover of Elton John's "Rocket Man," unsync-ed - creating an insane YouTube echo chamber ? Yeah, I hadn't either and I'm still recovering from the experience. "And I think it's gonna be a LONG long time." But it got me thinking about the ubiquitous spaceman, our everyman, and all the songs we love about them/him/her/us. So, let's have a vote: What's the best "spaceman" song/video? * For good measure, we can open it up to cartoon character episode? movie/TV moment? etc. ...especially if there's singing. Cast your vote! Share your link! Here's a few to get you started... * (David Bowie is unparalleled in so many ways and since "Space Oddity" has made an appearance in an earlier entry to this blog, let's just take that song out of the running. Nothing comes close. Or maybe you want to vote on that too?)
