Jareth Bowie now has a clear line to talk to Major Tom
That weird-ass song goes by 3 different names, too, and the weird-ass music it's sung to can be credited (?) to Kurt Weil, whose wife sung the first rendition of the thing, and her rendition is certainly more legible than David's despite the accent. But the meaning remains inextricable from the opera's context, and so as it stands alone, remains a weird-ass song.
The track that this link goes to is still not as weird as the original 1930 track, but you go ahead down that rabbithole if you wish.
