ACROSS THE UNIVERSE--  Beatles

DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT--  King Harvest

ROCKET MAN--  Elton John  (Always reminds me of driving the Ramblin;' Wreck from Athens, Ga., to DeKalb, Illinois, to see him play at NIU's Chick Evans Fieldhouse and Liz had seats right up front.)

OUTA SPACE--  Billy Preston

WALKING ON THE MOON--  Police

FULL MOON TURN MY HEAD AROUND--  Off Broadway

MAJOR TOM--   Peter Schelling

SPACE ODDITY--  David Bowie
