About Niederdeutsches Theater Delmenhorst | Völlig losgelöst

"Major Tom (Coming Home)" (German: Major Tom [völlig losgelöst], lit. 'Major Tom [completely detached]') is a new wave song written and recorded by West German singer-songwriter Peter Schilling. Its German Version was released in Europe in November 1982 and in the USA in September 1983 in English as the lead single from his album Error in the System. Featuring the story of a character unofficially related to "Major Tom" (an astronaut depicted in British musician David Bowie's 1969 song "Space Oddity" and other releases), Schilling's track describes a protagonist who leaves Earth and begins drifting out into outer space as radio contact breaks off with his ground control team. His fate is left ambiguous as the song ends.
