Wow, this song has brought a major downer on space oddity.

Micheal Valdros

Space is a metaphor for drugs. He starts out pretty sane at his first taste of it, saying the stars look very different, but remaining calm and composed (Seeing visions of aliens, in the music video) then he gets back in the capsule and he starts to feel withdrawal, getting desperate "Planet earth is blue and theirs nothing I can do", and eventually he cant bear it anymore, the withdrawal over takes him and he cuts his circuits, saying that his spaceship, or in this case his addiction, knows which way to go (To the drugs, of course), so he leaves his capsule once again, or takes another hit "Floating 'round my tin can, far above the moon". Throughout this Ground Control is his conscience, trying to keep him on track and away from the destructive influence, keeping him grounded if you will. Him cutting the circuits is him ignoring that voice in his head, and succumbing to the addiction.

Okay I think I get it. Major Tom is an addict in outerspace and he is also a metaphor for hard drugs? Damn you Bowie!

Liora Engler

Is it just me thinking that or is this song about drungs??

Felipe Dash Pimentel

Well to make it short, and if anyone would like to add notes here, please be welcome... This song starts talking "Do you remember a guy that's been in such an early song?" It's Major Tom, from his earlier hit "Space Oddity" and then he more or less describes a poetic auto biography of himself through all the transformations of persona he had in his career since then...

What is this song about? i like it

I wonder how many who have commented here are aware of the "New Wave" in sf of the 1960s-70s. Certainly, much that the musicians from the mid-1960s onward fit beautifully into that worldview (J. G. Ballard, Pamela Zoline, Thomas Disch, the more experimental works of Michael Moorcock, Brian Aldiss' "Barefoot in the Head" and "Report on Probability A", etc.). Colin Greenland even ties "Space Oddity" directly in with that movement in his "The Entropy Exhibition"....

hmmm, idk, I heard different, apparently some people would shout 'Rocket Man' during when David Bowie sung Space oddity :)

Iwatchthesevids

wasnt the elton john song based on the ray bradbury short story?

AlishatheNinjaLion

I think this was before he went to space, because in 'Oh rocket man' (by Elton John) which links to Major Tom, it says, 'I'm not the man they think I am at home'. Which could perhaps mean hes changed, idk (?)

I like getting super stoned and blasting this song at night!!!
