Artist : David Bowie
Title : Space Oddity
-----------------
Ground control to Major Tom
Ground control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground control to Major Tom
(10, 9, 8, 7)
Commencing countdown, engines on
(6, 5, 4, 3)
Check ignition, and may God's love be with you
(2, 1, liftoff)
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 the most of 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 100,000 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, there's 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...
Ground control to Major Tom,
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me Major Tom?
Can you hear me Major Tom?
Can you hear me Major Tom?
Can you...

i am pretty sure thunderstruck23 is right. this song is all about drugs and nothing to do with astronauts. in fact i think it is referring to the heroin use in the vietnam war. major tom being one of the many heroin addicted commanders in the war. "floating in the most peculiar way and the stars look very different today" is referring to his fucked up perception of everything because he is high as a kite. ground control is simply a symbol of reality that he is slowly slipping away from as he progressivly gets higher and subsequently more addicted. at the end of the song he does not die but has lost communication with ground control or in other words has lost all touch with reality. also ashes to ashes does clear that up
"Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low
Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight"
