the rise and fall of ziggy stardust and the spiders from mars albümünün dördüncü şarkısı ve albümden yayınlanan ilk single.
1972 yılında kayıt edilen bu parça albüme büyük bir hit olacağı düşünülerek, başka bir şarkının yerine alınmıştır ve sahiden hit olmuştur da. hatta 1999 yılında q magazine okurları tarafından tüm zamanların en iyi 100 single'i listesine seçilmiştir.
marslı^:the martian^ filminde ve simpsons'ın bir bölümünde kullanılmıştır.
sözleri radyoda uzaydan gelen sesi duyan bir gencin hikayesini anlatır;
didn't know what time it was and the lights were low
i leaned back on my radio
some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul, he said
then the loud sound did seem to fade
came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
that weren't no d.j. that was hazy cosmic jive
there's a starman waiting in the sky
he'd like to come and meet us
but he thinks he'd blow our minds
there's a starman waiting in the sky
he's told us not to blow it
'cause he knows it's all worthwhile
he told me
let the children lose it
let the children use it
let all the children boogie
i had to phone someone so i picked on you
hey, that's far out so you heard him too
switch on the tv we may pick him up on channel two
look out your window i can see his light
if we can sparkle he may land tonight
don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
there's a starman waiting in the sky
he'd like to come and meet us
but he thinks he'd blow our minds
there's a starman waiting in the sky
he's told us not to blow it
'cause he knows it's all worthwhile
he told me
let the children lose it
let the children use it
let all the children boogie
starman waiting in the sky
he'd like to come and meet us
but he thinks he'd blow our minds
there's a starman waiting in the sky
he's told us not to blow it
'cause he knows it's all worthwhile
he told me
let the children lose it
let the children use it
let all the children boogie -
2012 remastered versiyonu ile daha da überleşen şarkı. korkuluğu alçak olan 6'ncı kat balkonundan eller havada sarkma heyecanı. -
o kadar keyifli bir şarkıdır ki, her dinlendiğinde umut ve ümit çağrıları havaya uçar gider.
