Friday night is songs about Planets night

[NorthernDave]

Followed by some 90's indie goodness:

 

[Venod]

Freddie Mercury

 

[chriswoody]

Eric Idle's Galaxy Song. Always makes me chuckle.

This reminds me of laying on my back in a field in Essex (1972 Weeley Festival) and forming shapes from the coloured stars in the sky, the pounds shillings and pence, was fairly strong.

I don't remember the Beatles playing Weeley! I do remember chanting "Out, demons, out" when the Edgar Broughton band were on, and great performances from Lindisfarne and Stray, among others. Anyroad, this might be my last offering tonight, two for the price of one: Sun Ra with Calling Planet Earth.

 

[Diggs]

How about.........
Kate Bush - Saturn Your Lap?

 

[raleighnut]

The thing about planets is unless you can get from one to another then they might as well not be there.

Prefer the original to this 'speeded up' version..................................Stevie Ray Vaughn plays it well though

It might have been the bloke called Gypsy who played or it might have been a record, like a lot of things at the time the memories vague.

It is still Friday night, isn't it? I think I may have sobered up, then got drunk again - classic lost weekend. Can't believe I missed this one: Loudon Wainwright with Hard Day on the Planet.
I seem to keep singing the hook line every couple of days.


While I'm pushing the boundary of Friday night (far from the worst offender, am I?) here are two more gratuitous offerings; the good Cap'n with Full Moon, Hot Sun, and Van the Man with Astral Weeks.
