Spaceman (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=t_9MI2ymN6s&feature=related) by Babylon Zoo
I'm sure I can pull a few more space themed songs from my music collection when I get home but that's just the first one that came to mind.
Oh, and Space Oddity (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=D67kmFzSh_o) by David Bowie as well. (You know, the one that says "This is Ground Control to Major Tom"?)
Definitely Fly Me The Moon (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=1rAsoLm1Ges) by Sinatra.
Anything from The Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd.
Oh, and definitely for kicks, anything from the Wall-E soundtrack including Put On Your Sunday Clothes (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4eeiohJn1sQ&feature=related) by Michael Crawford
Bark at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne
Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven
Space Oddity - David Bowie

I got another one: Supermassive Black Hole (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Xsp3_a-PMTw)by Muse.
Just because of the space theme, & because it's a pretty cool song. :D

I'm showing my age here, but I think that "They're coming to take me away, Ha, Haaa" by Napoleon XIV will pretty much describe most of us on ship date. :p
Is that before or after the mandatory Moonwalk? :p
Maybe that will be a goal for me. I have always wanted to knwo how to Moonwalk. Maybe I can get one of my kids to teach me.
Speaking of which. During a timeout, how cool would it be to see a Moonwalk race? Of course just like competition speed walking, strict enforcement of proper "from" would be necessary.:p
