Heres a little spaces rap song my son wrote about 6 years ago for a SOSE project at Primary School. He had to get up in front of his class and perform it also

I’m here to tell ya
About the solar system
Its the best place around
So I'll here no dissin

The first stop is, Mercury
They say it’s real hot
So come get a tan
With me and my B

The next stop is Venus
The planet of acid
If you breathe any in
You’ll become real placid

Earth, Earth, Earth
It’s planet No-3
It’s all a pretty blue
Mainly covered by sea

Planet No-4
Is the one they call Mars
All covered in Red
Not electric guitars

Next in line is Jupiter
Give it a miss and wave bye, bye
It will watch you pass
With its big red eye

Bring it on Saturn
The planet with rings
It’s the sickest of all
The planet with bling

Uranus, Neptune & Pluto
Are the last in line
I can’t say anymore
And it’s the end of my rhyme

Awwwww very cute Grant

Here's one...

"Telstar" by The Tornadoes in 1962 (even in mono)
(or The Models version)

Lots of versions on YouTube...

[Enchilada]

Another. How about Manfred Mann's Earth Band "Solar Fire" (1973)?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcN636q1aMY

This was a concept album with seven tracks, Track 2 "Solar Fire" probably the best... (Though judging by Jen's humour, she just might like "Pluto : The Dog" (Prophesy perhaps of Pluto now in the Dog House??) Must listen for about 50 seconds at least...

Lyrics to Solar Fire...

See the morning dancer, crossing the sky,
Turning gold to amber travelling by
He must know the answer
He must know why.
Looking for an answer look to the sky.

Shadows getting shorter filling your sight
Brightly burning starfire, life giving light
Dawning into morning
Day into night
Looking for an answer, look to the light

Sunlight streaming burn through the night
First light stealing shine solar fire.

Starting from tomorrow look to the sky
There's a new day dawning passing you by
Follow on life's dancer and than you'll know why
Looking for an answer look to the sky.

Sunlight etc.

[Enchilada]

Another is Enya's latest "Stars and Midnight Blue" (2008)

"You have lost yourself in dreaming
I have lost myself in you
Now we lie beneath the sky
Stars and midnight blue"

Heaven indeed!
Now I'll only to find someone who meets the criteria !

[wasyoungonce (Brendan)]

No Space song list would be complete without:

Johann Strauss, "The Blue Danube"..aka the space dock sceen in 2001 A space odyssey movie.

And or....

Tom Lehrer, "Wernher Von Braun" song for the father of man's space travel:

They were giants indeed! Shame some were so persecuted! For being different- but right! Not sure if the song will make it into the top ten but its a great effort!
