	Space Oddity (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Space Oddity is a 1969 album by rock musician David Bowie.
		"Space Oddity" was a largely acoustic number augmented by the eerie tones of the composer's Stylophone, a pocket electronic organ.
		The Buddhism-influenced "Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud" was presented in a heavily-expanded form compared to the original guitar-and-cello version on the B-side of the "Space Oddity" single; the album cut featured a 50-piece orchestra and was also notable for Mick Ronson's debut on a Bowie record, playing uncredited guitar and handclaps midway through the song.

		The album version of ‘Space Oddity’ was considerably longer than the single edit, but contrary to some reports it’s not a re-recording.

	Amazon.com: Space Oddity: Music: David Bowie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		"Space Oddity," the title track, was his first commercial success (much due to the fact that it tied into the moon landing), and a nice yarn at that.
		Often considered David Bowie's debut, "Space Oddity" (as it is now titled-- it's been released under a couple different names) is actually Bowie's second album, but it's the one on which he began to build his substantial legacy.
		"Space Oddity" the song has been called out-of-place and may have been better served as a non-lp single, but the song is so great that as an album opener it's a no-brainer.

		SPACE ODDITY was the first record on which David Bowie looked and sounded like the Bowie whom the world has come to know.
		Even after decades of continued airplay, "Space Oddity" is surprising for its intricate arrangement, nifty guitar playing, and palpable sense of interplanetary estrangement.
		In my opinion Space oddity is a great Bowie album but not the best of his career as I think this goes to Ziggy stardust followed by Hunky dory.

	Space Oddity by David Bowie Songfacts
		He notices that stars look different, because he saw them clearly in space for the first time, not obscured by atmosphere and also sees his home planet, so beautiful and blue more than he imagined it would be.
		I have heard it suggested that Major Tom's decision to die in space is because he found out his wife was cheating on him, and he loves her so much he can't bear to live life that way.
		A space oddity is one of my favorite songs of all time, although it is a very sad song once you understand the meaning.

		That's always been the approach with SPACE ODDITY, a series based on the very simple premise that the future of this planet will be just like the present only moreso.
		In developing and designing Space Oddity we've always tried to keep an eye on where things are actually going and as many of you know it wasn't easy.
		We knew that just being in space was pretty mind blowing and the drama would come from the situation, the characters and the realistic task of pushing the limits of exploration.

		One of the ways NASA keeps the shuttle popular in the public imagination is by letting students send all manner of earthly detritus into space—an anthill here, a New York City subway fare card with a magnetic strip there—to see what affect the zero-gravity conditions will have on it.
		The company’s slogan is “We Mean Business in Space.” The company’s goal is to turn space into just another strip mall, with itself as the landlord.
		In addition, the European Space Agency had 14 investigations aboard our shuttle (which means that the Europeans like us when we’re flying their experiments into outer space, even if they don’t like us when we’re flying fighter jets over their airspace).

	Peter Schilling
		Originally released in 1969 to coincide with the first moon landing, David Bowie's "Space Oddity" was hardly a celebration of man's efforts to reach the stars.
		In the light of this later song, it would seem that Major Tom is a man who has made the painful transtition from a feel-no-pain drug-cowboy to a strung-out junkie desperate to come back down to earth.
		Peter Schilling's 1983 hit "Major Tom (I'm Coming Home)" is an excellent early '80s revision of the original "Space Oddity," complete with a techno beat and the obligatory synth work.

		With the Board of Directors committing early in 2004 to reinvesting in the Pike Place Market streetfront, a 1960sqft space originally occupied in 1981 and last remodeled in 1991 (establishing the Resource Center for Architecture), work commenced in earnest beginning in March.
		Throughout Spring 2004, teams of emerging professionals conducted programming exercises including interviews of the AIA Seattle staff and other users of the space, held a series of design charrettes, and developed concepts for presentation.
		A 1991 remodel by Mithun reconfigured the space to capitalize on the streetfront site and created the much-visited Resource Center for Architecture (as cited in Architectural Record 7/04: "Bridging the Divide Between Architects and the Public," by Sam Lubell).

		The time has come for a band to recall how terrifying it was that the space station Skylab was going to drop out of the stratosphere into our backyards.
		(Their debut album was titled after the former space station.) The last time I caught their show, however, was at the Entry--too small a venue for such theatrics, even with thick curls of smoke surrounding the four men, who were drinking from beakers and wearing different-colored vinyl spacesuits.
		Which seems appropriate, since space has always been the last refuge for misfits and outsiders, be they gawky Eighties teens and Seventies androgynes or the whole subset of cosmic-minded African Americans from Sun Ra and George Clinton to Samuel Delany.
