David Bowie: Space Oddity

Square

Bowie wrote this for a 1969 promotional film called Love You Till Tuesday, but a new version was recorded for the single released in July 1969 five days ahead of the Apollo 11 moon landing. It reached No 5 in Britain but was banned by US radio stations. However after re-release in the States at the end of 1972 it reached No 15 in 1973.
