Smashing Pumpkins - Space Oddity (Bowie Cover)

Space.... the final frontier. The line from Star Trek that inspired the name of this blog. Here's another thing that's space inspired. Smashing Pumpkin's cover of Space Oddity (originally by David Bowie). This track, thanks to Bowie's amazing composition, feels larger than the usual rock song from his era. Couple that with the Alternative Rock that the Pumpkins oozes, this track feels like a 90s rock era influenced musical number. This could easily fit into a modern musical with the dreamy landscape the band is famous with in it's later era. Add more layers of distortion over the non-conventional notes the song uses, this song can easily be shoegaze'd .(TM) Plus points on the creative solo interpretation here. Kudos to Corgan and the gang.
