Lyrics and translation David Bowie & The Spiders from Mars - Space Oddity (Johnnie Walker - Lunchtime Show, Recorded 22.5.72) [2000 Remastered Version]

Space Oddity (Johnnie Walker - Lunchtime Show, Recorded 22.5.72) [2000 Remastered Version]

Ground Control to Major Tom

Contrôle au sol pour Major Tom

Ground Control to Major Tom

Contrôle au sol pour Major Tom

Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Prends tes pilules protéinées et mets ton casque

Ground Control to Major Tom (Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six)

Contrôle au sol pour Major Tom (Dix, Neuf, Huit, Sept, Six)

Commencing countdown, engines on (Five, Four, Three)

Début du compte à rebours, moteurs allumés (Cinq, Quatre, Trois)

Check ignition and may God's love be with you (Two, One, Liftoff)

Vérifier l'allumage et que l'amour de Dieu soit avec toi (Deux, Un, Décollage)

This is Ground Control to Major Tom

Ceci est le contrôle au sol pour Major Tom

You've really made the grade

Tu as vraiment réussi

And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear

Et les journaux veulent savoir quelles chemises tu portes

Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

Maintenant, il est temps de quitter la capsule si tu l'oses

This is Major Tom to Ground Control

Ceci est Major Tom pour le contrôle au sol

I'm stepping through the door

Je franchis la porte

And I'm floating in a most peculiar way

Et je flotte d'une manière très particulière

And the stars look very different today

Et les étoiles semblent très différentes aujourd'hui

For here

Car ici

Am I sitting in a tin can

Je suis assis dans une boîte de conserve

Far above the world

Loin au-dessus du monde

Planet Earth is blue

La planète Terre est bleue

And there's nothing I can do

Et il n'y a rien que je puisse faire

Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles

Bien que je sois passé à plus de cent mille miles

I'm feeling very still

Je me sens très immobile

And I think my spaceship knows which way to go

Et je pense que mon vaisseau spatial sait où aller

Tell my wife I love her very much

Dis à ma femme que je l'aime beaucoup

She knows

Elle sait

Ground Control to Major Tom

Contrôle au sol pour Major Tom

Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong

Ton circuit est mort, il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Tu m'entends, Major Tom ?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Tu m'entends, Major Tom ?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Tu m'entends, Major Tom ?

Can you

Tu peux

Here Am I floating round a tin can

Me voici, flottant autour d'une boîte de conserve

Far above the Moon

Loin au-dessus de la Lune

Planet Earth is blue

La planète Terre est bleue

And there's nothing I can do.

Et il n'y a rien que je puisse faire.
