I feel like I should have come up with a more clever name than “Space” to title this show, but it gets the job done and as I don’t say, but I have heard, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Anyway, rocket men, planets of rock, oddities in space, and satellites of love were the names of the singular game. Here’s what I played relating to the final frontier:
Another Girl, Another Planet – The Only Ones
In The Sun – Blondie
Intergalactic – Beastie Boys
Destination Venus – Man Or Astro-Man?
You Make Your Own Heaven and Hell Right Here on Earth – The Temptations
Bring Back Pluto – Aesop Rock
Ride-O-Rocket – The Brothers Johnson
Planet Rock – Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force
Ballrooms of Mars – T. Rex
Life on Mars? – David Bowie
Thin Moon – James Pants
Space Bass – Baron Zen
Trip to Mars – The Skalites
House of the Rising Sun – Gregory Isaacs
Rocket Man – Elton John
Under the Moon of Love – Curtis Lee
Satellite of Love – Lou Reed
3rd Planet (BBC Radio Sessions) – Modest Mouse
Everybody Is A Star – Sly & The Family Stone
Saturn – Stevie Wonder
Lazy Old Sun – The Kinks
Blue Moon of Kentucky – Elvis Presley
Space Junk – Devo
California Sun – The Dictators
Venus – Television
Love Goddess of Venus – The Ventures
Across the Universe – The Beatles
Who Loves the Sun – The Velvet Underground
Planet Earth – Devo
Interplanet Janet – Man Or Astro-Man?
Satellite – TV on the Radio
Space Oddity – David Bowie
Next week’s show will be off the heezy for sheezy, that being said, I am very curious who first thought of “off the hook” as a term signifying that something is good. Next week’s show is going to be another samples show, but these are a bit more obscure than my first samples show and I’m going to play the full sampled song as well as the sampling song.
Thanks for listening,
