I never realized that JGL was so musical - I love the songs he chooses and his interpretations of them. A very creative guy. I'm glad music is helping him through this difficult time for him, a little at a time. Good to see him back!

I just reread this whole thread.
Imagine my surprise about the above quoted.
I never knew there was an English version of Major Tom, or that anyone outside of Germany actually knew the song! :o
I really disliked NDW* when it happened, and still dislike it today. But Major Tom was one of the few songs from it I did like.
*NDW = Neue Deutsche Welle (literally: new German wave ::)). A flood of German singing popstars with incredibly stupid songs and lyrics, which were suddenly totally hip in the 80ies. But then, I never liked the 80ies too much anyway. I boycotted the attire, I boycotted the hair, and for a good deal also the music. I was a teenager and simply against anything others liked, lol. I was the girl who never missed a chance for strife.

NDW: they say you should learn something new everyday. Today it was NDW.

It's as close as you can get to a Heathlike experience: one actor who looks like him, and another actor who sounds (a little) like him.
