Interstellar
I always wanted to do some kind of tribute to low-budget sci-fi. And this is what resulted. I think it's probably impossible to do this kind of song without people thinking of David Bowie. Oh well!
I also bought the Rocky Horror Picture Show DVD the week that I recorded this, which may have inspired some of the vocal inflections too.
In case you were wondering, the drums sound kind of flanged deliberately, it's not the result of poor mp3 encoding!
The sound of a radio being tuned at the end of the track was supposed to fade into the next song on the album, but that mix is now lost (except on a cassette tape I have in my car).
LyricsInterstellar space girl He got your distress call But now your signal's gone again. Interstellar space man Tune your radio wave band Try to pick her up again. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. Interstellar space girl All alone on your world Send your beacon up again. Interstellar space man Tune your radio wave band Try to pick her up again. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. Interstellar space man Set your shields and your ray gun There's aliens on your scanners again. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. Interstellar space girl. Interstellar space man. |
