Someone suggested a challenge to write a song about Starman who was launched into space today with the SpaceX rocket. The following ballad is what I came up with using BIAB. Starman Realtracks: 2579,Bass, Synth RnB Modern Sub 1839: Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Pop Modern Groove 688: Organ, B3, Background Pop 2668: Pedal Steel, Background West Coast Ballad 2334: String Quartet, Rhythm, Pop Chamber Real Drums - RnB Modern Ev16 Lyrics: Starman… I know your gonna travel far Flying… In your fancy sports car Looking down on all of us from up among the stars Please don’t forget what you are. Got a first class ticket. Their gonna send you to space. Maybe you’ll look back one of these days And wonder bout your choices and what you could have been. Here in a world among men. Starman… I know your gonna travel far Flying… In your fancy sports car Looking down on all of us from up among the stars Please don’t forget what you are. You could have been a model showing your off fancy suits Dressed in Armani cloths and Modello shoes But you wanted more from life. You wanted to fly. Now your up high above the sky. Starman… I know your gonna travel far Flying… In your fancy sports car Looking down on all of us from up among the stars Please don’t forget what you are. Many men have dreamed of flying up towards the sun But you did it first. Now your just fancy space junk. Starman… I know your gonna travel far Flying… In your fancy sports car Looking down on all of us from up among the stars Please don’t forget what you are.

And let us not forget that "Space Oddity" is playing on a loop from the Tesla's radio Nice tune. You guys and gals who can "write on demand" amaze us.

My interest kind of dropped off for many years but yesterday's launch was impressive. Kind of a science fiction type feel to wjat was accomplished. Should be interesting to see what this leads to.

Growing up, I thought the future would be non-stop launches into the stars! Gotta say, even as someone who doesn't listen to much country, this song was great. If more country sounded like this, I would probably listen to it more frequently. To be honest, I thought it was a song about David Bowie at first. C-sharp when you cross the street… or you’re going to B-flat. Mikke - PG Music

Space launches do happen quite often here in Florida but the recent achievements are pretty astounding, and them sending a dummy in a Testla into orbit is a bit hilarious.

I like this a lot. A unique lyric but very appropriate. I agree with the comment you made about wondering what this might lead to. My family has a bit of a connection with NASA. My great uncle (maternal grandmother's brother), was a lead electrical technician on the Mercury capsule. He never made a big deal of it. I think it's pretty cool! I'm originally from St. Louis, where the capsule was built by McDonell Aircraft. I really enjoyed this! Great job in all respects!

I have been busy the last few days and haven't gotten anything done, but hopefully Monday I'll get the ball rolling again. My uncle also worked on one the space shuttles. (not sure which one off the top of my head) Small world huh? Samuel Davis Jr BIAB 2018 + Cubase + Ignite BMI www.sammycountry.com
