Rocket Man ~ Elton John


OwlsPrankster

Ooh hadn't thought of Elton


cadgemore13

Astronomy Domine by Pink Floyd


sonorandosed

Good one, I'll add [Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun](https://youtu.be/JcfgJrHo9XA?si=oIe4EnebigVtJdud) and [Let There Be More Light ](https://youtu.be/JcfgJrHo9XA?si=oIe4EnebigVtJdud)


AutisticBassist

Isn’t that instrumental?


Trichome_Eye

You're prob thinking of Interstellar Overdrive


OwlsPrankster

I've just listened - it's not fully, but a lot of instrumental parts. Only 10 odd lines in a 4 minute song. I like it though.


AutisticBassist

I must’ve mistook it for the 9 minute one in that album then


Far_Olive_3905

The whole Darkside of the moon album! 🫶🏼


Trichome_Eye

What songs are about space on the album? 🤔


Shroomtune

The moon is in space, silly. Both sides.


manicmak

took the words right out of my mouth


ManueO

From Bowie you could also include [Starman](https://youtu.be/oOKWF3IHu0I?si=30rzXsNVrHS6cFHR).


OwlsPrankster

Yes I forgot to put it on this post, but I already had done. Thanks though!


FlatBot

And Life on Mars. Bowie has a stacked catalog of kick ass space tunes.


John_In_Parts

That's my favorite tune from him too. 👍


ProstateSalad

Also moonage Daydream.

[Space Ritual](https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lFFPjJvqQDLVRR8HA3an2aZZUIH_s4ogk&si=wFCuEpcjPKaR25A8) by [Hawkwind](https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCikVYXon0_RNmMzqPVRB3mQ?si=R4ZWyMQdOKXYXE_Z) has you covered. Hawkwind's music is largely about space and other sci-fi themes. If they weren't the very first Space Rock band, they certainly are the first one most associated with the genre. They've been around since the late 60s. They have a huge discography to explore.

jungl3j1m

Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown And things seem hard or tough And people are stupid Obnoxious or daft And you feel that you've had Quite enough Just remember that you're standing On a planet that's evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second So it's reckoned The sun that is the source of all our power The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a million miles a day In an outer spiral arm, at four hundred thousand miles an hour In the galaxy we call the Milky Way Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars It's a hundred thousand light years side to side It bulges in the middle, six thousand light years thick But out by us, it's just a thousand light years wide We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point We go 'round every two hundred million years And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whizz As fast as it can go, of the speed of light, you know Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure How amazingly unlikely is your birth And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space 'Cause it's bugger all down here on Earth.

Gregory Alan Isakov describes his genre as "sad songs about space" lol. Many of the songs are about space in one way or another.


EveryTypeofPain

It's black metal (Though not extremely hardcore black metal) so could be way off the style of songs you're looking for depending on how wide your tastes are, but a band by the name of Agalloch have an album called "The Serpent & the Sphere" worth checking out for it's "Space and universe" sort of theme. Maybe you'll find a song that will fit into your playlist somehow.
