| C.W. McCall – Convoy Lyrics | 20 years ago |

I think you will find its Pig Pen, note the line 'and a Jimmy haulin hogs'. There is also another version of this song, probably for the movie, starts of with something like Breaker one nine, this here's the Rubber Duck You got a copy on me Love Machine and towards the end with the bridge - and he sure drew fear as he grabbed a gear and stuck it in grandaddy low them guns went zoom and his ass went boom and the Mack took a terminal blow Can't remember the rest, but Mack is in reference to the Rubber Ducks Mack truck and Love Machine I think is the guys real CB Handle but got the nickname Pig Pen from the truckers due to him hauling pigs on the trip. |

| David Bowie – Space Oddity Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
History Lesson - Space Oddity release in 1969, Bowie says the movie 2001 A Space Odyssey (1968) inspired the song. The real Apollo 13 Disaster takes place in April 1970, ship was called Odyssey iirc. Apollo 13 the Movie comes out 1995. Most people I have spoken to who knew SO prior to Ashes to Ashes say the song was not about drugs and where dissapointed with A2A. Bowie himself has said A2A was written to kill off Major Tom (also a neat way of cashing in on the original hit), A2A of course was not on Bowies mind back in 69 |
