Stusi Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Hello everyone.... i'm DJ'ing a small stargazing party being hosted by my local rotary club and i was wondering if you all know of any songs that mention stars, astronomy, or space as i thought it would be cool to play a lot of them while we are looking through a massive telescope in the middle of nowhere texas. It's for kids 15-19 so hopefully you all know of some stuff they would like. Here is what i have thought of so far. (I'm tryin to keep it pretty chill so no death metal about "the sky is falling") Artist - Song Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There James Blunt - High Train - Drops of Jupiter Hum - Stars Coldplay - Yellow The Tornados - Telstar Our Lady Peace - Starseed Steve Miller Band - Space Cowboy Oasis - Champaign Supernova Jack Johnson - Constellations and a friend of mine suggested "good morning starshine" but i have no idea since i havn't listened to it yet. Anyone else got some good suggestions?
swansont Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 You can check out the lyrics to Good Morning Starshine. "Gliddy glub gloopy Nibby nabby noopy La la la lo lo Sabba sibby sabba Nooby abba nabba Le le lo lo Tooby ooby walla Nooby abba naba" Can't get more astronomical than that Don't know about 15-19 year-olds liking them, but here's more: "Why Does the Sun Shine?" They Might Be Giants "Eclipse" Pink Floyd "Total Eclipse" Alan Parsons Project "Here Comes the Sun" and "Across the Universe" The Beatles "Waiting for the Sun" The Doors "Under the Milky Way" The Church "Planet Claire" B-52s "Venus" Shocking Blue "Bad Moon Rising" Creedence Clearwater Revival "Goodnight Moon" Shivaree (from Kill Bill vol 2) "Walking on the Moon" The Police "Walkin' on the Sun" Smashmouth "Blue Moon" The Marcels "Man on the Moon" R.E.M. "Moonshadow" Cat Stevens "Space Oddity" David Bowie and, of course, "The Galaxy Song" by Monty Python's Flying Circus (sung by Eric Idle) from "The Meaning of Life"

A combination of memory and lookup. Obviously I Googled the lyrics, but they are all in my iTunes collection (which is where I searched), with the exception of The Galaxy Song. I looked that up on the iTunes music store only to make sure I got the title right.
aj47 Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 How about 'Moon River' by Andy Williams. Nice chilled out classic.
