Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills
and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Major Tom
Commencing countdown,
engines on
Check ignition
and may God's love be with you
This is Ground Control
to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule
if you dare
This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating
in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past
one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much
she knows
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead,
is there something wrong?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you....
Here am I floating
round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do.
The lyrics SPACE ODDITY of STEEL TRAIN is also present in the album 1969 (2003)
Gli Steel Train sono stati una band indie rock americana formatasi a New York nel 1999, guidata dal talentuoso Jack Antonoff. Antonoff, noto per la sua carriera successiva come produttore e musicista solista, ha fondato il gruppo insieme ad altri membri provenienti da diverse esperienze musicali. Gli Steel Train hanno raggiunto una certa popolarità negli anni 2000 grazie al loro sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e un'energia live contagiosa. Il loro album di debutto, "The Logic of the Universe", pubblicato nel 2003, ha segnato l'inizio della loro ascesa. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo ricordiamo "I Want to Be Your Boyfriend", "You Can't Stop Me" e "The Last Time". Dopo diversi anni di attività, gli Steel Train si sono sciolti nel 2010, lasciando un segno indelebile nella scena indie rock americana. Jack Antonoff ha continuato la sua carriera musicale con successo, collaborando con artisti come Lana Del Rey, Lorde e Taylor Swift.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
