Jonathan Coulton - Space Doggity
Video I tossed together for Space Doggity using this video: th-cam.com/video/yI4f6kRnEH8/w-d-xo.html
MP3 Link: www.jonathancoulton.com/songdetails/Space%20Doggity
Lyrics:
The cage is very small
A tiny silver ball
That makes you a hero
The moment you step inside
The world is watching you
What youre about to do
Will live on forever
Even though youll be dead
And gone
Buckle up
Were about to turn the engines on.

Hello from Sputnik 2
I am receiving you
Thanks for the dog food
Im somewhere above you now
Guess what Malashenkov?
I took the collar off
Im holding my own leash
And walking myself outside
This door
I dont think
I want to be a good dog anymore.
Now Im floating free
And the moons with me
And its bright enough
To light the dark
And its so high up here
And the stars so clear -
Are they close enough?
Will they hear me bark from here?
Moscow to Sputnik 2
I think were losing you
Your life signs are fading
We cant really say that were
Surprised
Its a shame
There is always something that gets compromised
Now Im floating free
And the moons with me
And its bright enough
To light the dark
And its so high up here
And the stars so clear -
Are they close enough?
Will they hear me bark from here?

Breaks your heart!
"Are they close enough, can they hear me bark from here?" This line gets me every time.
This song has as much weight behind it as Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt
"We did not learn enough from this mission to justify the death of the dog.”
I shall never forgive them - a broken statute of The Almighty I may be forgiven for.
Good old school net right here
One of the saddest, most beautiful things on the Internet.
i wish she could have known how many people would love her someday
Me: aw cool, “space dogity” this is going to be so much fun, I can already tell Me 1 minute later: wow um, *sniffle*, that’s rough
I come back every year. This just keeps getting better. Both the song and the video.
and this is why we still hate Russia !
14 years ago, I adopted the sweetest girl. They called her Oreo, and I immediately called her Laika. She was my first dog, in a way. The first in my adult life, and certainly the first to attach to me. She was utterly devoted to me, and I was hers the moment I met her. With her, I made it through losing my mother. With her, I made it through college. Through every surgery (hers and mine) we were together. Through every loss and gain, every hurt, every tear. She was a good dog. The best dog. Little Dummy. Baby girl. Lai. My little astronaut. I said goodbye last night. She's in the stars, and I'm still earthbound. Float free, babydog, the moon's with you now.
She is with you you just dont know it ,dont let her go she will stay as long as you let her spirit live ,do not let go! Best
RIP Laika. Leave it to the heartless Soviets to send a family pet in place of a... well... guinea pig.
Terrible singing, terrible song. Laika deserves so much better than this drivel.
Not sure what you're talking about given that the singing is great and the song is amazing. What drivel were you actually talking about?
A JoCo cruise is the only cruise I've ever been tempted to go on, but I swear I would not go unless there was a guarantee this song would not be played. It is too real. Too sad. This song breaks me.
I love my dog
😭
Damn it, why did you have to go and make this old man cry? RIP Laika.
God, I can't describe how much I sometimes despairingly HATE being a member of this shitty species.
oh no did we kill one hecking doggo!!! dont think too hard about any other species
@@aymbaut9361 Well, if you're the kind of person who thinks a dog is basically as important as a cockroach, that's your opinion and you're part of the problem.
@@theexerciseedit3147 Laika's sacrifice will not be forgotten. She is a martyr.
good job on the vid
this song slays me😂
Still here commenting on this a decade later
This song introduced me to JayCo
the final shot where laika curls into a ball in space and turns into a star for half a second before the video ends [crying emoji]
I ask she' flew actual video of space? Or in here in earth with zero gravity? Rest in peace loving dog. You still forever in our hearts.
I'm sorry, Laika. So many people love you now. I wish you had gotten to see it.
I know this song is supposed to be funny (and it is), but for some reason it always makes me cry. Jonathan Coulton is a great songwriter
it's supposed to be funny? ive been crying ever since i heard it
How is it supposed to be funny? I can't think of a single funny thing about this... maybe the line "I don't think I want to be a good dog anymore" but even that's such a tragic thing to imagine a dog thinking.
It fits perfectly with Coulton’s wry sense of humor. Pairings a parody of Space Oddity with the story of Laika The Cosmonaut is just brilliant
This is disgusting! Singing a song about Laika. A dog that trusted and that trust monstrously exploited. Sent to a horrible death....
Okay but what's disgusting about the song/video
happy anniversary
I don't think I want to be a good dog anymore.
Good tribute song. I like to think that alien's saved the dog.
honestly the worst thing khrushchev ever did
Randomly found this on roblox audio. I was lucky
What more could you expect from Russia…Now…or back in the 50’s…The cruelty…Send Vladimir…
Way to f me up this morning, JoCo
That little puppy which was just three years old never deserved to die...Maybe he was running around happily before he was chosen for this murder.He had a happy life ahead...He or she was too little for such a duty. To me, the spaceman who wants to go to the space very much and plan this murder should've gone there himself and sacrifice himself as a human. But, he chose to be a murderer.I' ll never forget the innocent look in the eyes of Laika.
Я-бы полетел вместо её Моя жизнь не так важна. Бедная собачка.
I always cried at this song, but it wasn't until recently when I got a dog of my own, (who happens to look similiar to the dog in the video) that I bawl my eyes out when I listen to this song.
It's third November and again I'm reminded of this sad song. I hope she didn't suffer too much.
is JoCo still so obscure that TH-cam doesn't know who he is?
You can't call yourself a dog owner if you listen to this song without tearing up.
I can't call myself a dog owner because I don't own a dog
Will it ever be bright enough?
This is so sad
"I don't want to be a good dog afterall..." who's cutting onions so many onions
This is incredibly sad.
Beautiful song. Sad bit of trivia that inspired perhaps JoCo's best tune. And Laika is an eternal StarPuppy watching over the Earth, cuddling with Dave Bowman, the StarChild. And David Bowie, the Blackstar.
we miss you Laika :(
Still hits hard
No animal should ever be treated like this. They are living things that deserve love, not being treated like some piece of lab equipment.
