Do you miss the space shuttle? I do, and I never thought I'd miss that piece of junk. Looks like I'm not alone -- plenty of musicians sing lonesome songs about space. Here are a few songs to get you thinking about exploring the galaxy.
1. "Intergalactic" by the Beastie Boys
2. "The Year 2000" by the Phenomenauts
3. "Feel So Moon" by Unicorn -- This song is the opening theme to "Space Brothers," an anime about space exploration. The opening sequence alone is worth checking out.
4. "Do You Realize" by the Flaming Lips
5. "Astronaut" by Blitzen Trapper
6. "We Are All Made of Stars" by Moby
7. "Astronaut" by G. Love
8. "What Planet Is This" by the Seatbelts
9. "Lose Control" by Ash -- This song doesn't have any direct link to space, but the sound that plays at the beginning is from a Star Wars TIE fighter and the whole thing generally sounds like The Jetsons on energy pills.
10. "Some Kind of Nature" by the Gorillaz -- Honorable mention to the entire album "Laika Come Home" by Spacemonkeyz vs. Gorillaz.
