Peter Schilling - Major Tom (Coming Home) 80's Music Video

Tuwing hapon nanunuod ka noon ng Video Hit Parade. Ang dami mong mga music videos na napanuod, at ito ang una mong introduction sa mundo ng MTV. Marami kang nadiskubreng mga banda at music artists na may kanyakanyang mga hits, porma, at siyempre, music videos! Video Hit Parade Classics brings you classic music videos na hindi natin malilimutan!


Peter Schilling - Major Tom
"4, 3, 2, 1 - Earth below us, drifting falling."


German-born synth pop musician Peter Schilling rose to fame with his 1983 hit single "Major Tom" from the album "Error In The System". With his music often inspired by science-fiction themes featuring aliens, astronauts, nuclear holocausts, etc, this tune was the retelling of David Bowie's 1969 classic "Space Oddity". Although the song was originally recorded in German, the international hit version was sung in English and became an international hit throughout 1984 and 1985.

A mix tape during the 80's Nu Wave exlposion in Manila would be incomplete without this hit that featured a well-crafted catchy chorus that you'd be singing it for days.
