Space Oddity - David Bowie

Si mirem un dia com avui però 45 anys enrere, el 18 de març 1965 Alexey Leonov va ser el primer home en sortir a passejar per l’espai. Sobre l'espai, fa uns mesos vaig penjar Ashes to Ashes del David Bowie, i avui escoltarem a Space Oddity (Bowie) de l’any 1969. Si la cançó sona una mica estrany, és perquè és la versió original i no la que desprès seria el seu primer èxit – segons la persona que l’ha penjat, i qui sóc jo per a discutir.

18th March, 1965, 45 years ago today. The cosmonaut Alexey Leonov became the first man to walk in space. A few months ago we heard a great song about life in space, David Bowie’s Ashes to Ashes, and today we’ve got Space Oddity (Bowie) from 1969. If it sounds a little unusual, it’s because it was the original version he recorded before finishing off the version which would later become his first hit – according to the person who’s uploaded the video, and who am I to argue?
