after listening to a bunch of music from moonbase alpha I tried to play again and saw nobody was on, so I made a big server and nobody joined. This song was just too fitting. :(
I think bowie felt the cosmic truth. Like that feeling astronauts get when they look back down this blue marble. That feeling that most likely none of us will ever truly feel. But bowie's helplessness as major tom even JUST through the lyrics. You feel it even through the moonbase alpha chat speech. He knew without leaving the atmosphere how helpless he really is. Its how we all are on this ball of iron. The planet earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do.
Next time I'm having an existential crisis my brain is going to remind me of Kirby's huge vein there, and I'm going to laugh, so I'm just thanking you in advance. Poyo~
I REALLY want to know what you fed to the text-to-speech to get it to say "most peculiar way" @ 2:00 when Bowie himself says it like this weird 'a-pic-you-lee-air way' lmao
The image is actually really sad. On the right there is the decent stage of a lander but no ascent stage meaning that this astronaut is now stranded on the moon only able to play his guitar until he runs out of air.
I'm surprised I'm just now finding out about this. This seems like a no-brainer for a space simulator, and yet it never pops up in any Moonbase Alpha video!
**Ground Control:** Ground Control to Major Tom! **Major Tom:** This is Madden, John to Ground Control - Commander N. Pony. aieou. John Madden. John Madden. John Madden. John Madden. aieou. Commander N. Pony. **Ground Control:** ...Major Tom what the *fuck*
Stephen Hawking used a CallText 5010, which ran DECTalk, the same speech synthesis program used in Moonbase Alpha and in all the meme videos like this one. Stephen Hawking used a modified version of this voice (called 'Perfect Paul') in particular. For the last few months of his life, it seems as if he had switched to emulating the CallText 5010 using a Raspberry Pi, probably because parts for those old speech synthesizers can be difficult to find.
Rest in peace, John Madden

This song is so powerful that even with goofy computer speech as vocals it still gives me the chills
Ground Control to Madden, John.

david bowie music just hits like that
????
It's kinda sad when you realize that sound does not travel in the vacuum of space but you can't help just to sing your heart out
“I didn’t know we were making memories, I was just having fun”
I googled this quote, came up with one result: Justin Buenviaje. Is this a eulogy?
RIP JOHN MADDEN
ETERNAL KING OF THE MOON
This is actually not that bad. It made this amazing Bowie song even more unsettling.
And somehow more sad and deep
Better version tbh
In the vast reaches of Space, no one can hear you AIEOU...
In the vacuum of space noone can hear AEIOU scream.
Moonbase Alpha songs really hit different.
There's some kind of odd melancholic sound to these robotic text-to-speech voices
What if they made Ground Control the Moonbase Alpha voice, but kept Major Tom as David Bowie?
YES PLEASE
Agreed
yeah that would be a cool concept, too bad nobody has done it....
yet: th-cam.com/video/lxZjMHgfDQ0/w-d-xo.html
im gonna do it
That would be beautiful.

John Madden may be gone but he'll never be forgotten.
best vocaloid song in my opinion
If the astronaut is playing a guitar and we can hear it, does this mean the moon has a atmosphere?
most known planets and moons have atmospheres (including our moon)

See you, space cowboy. F.
Now we just need a Madden game that's set on the moon. It's damned well what we would've wanted. Maybe he would too, if he ever cared for the meme.

Whatever happened to moonbase alpha?
This brought back some old memories
It's still around.
@@oliverl.1949 but the servers are all dead, i tried playing but the game felt like a graveyard
this is my go-to music whenever im doing literally anything
This Deserves so many more views
Even though the robot voices are terrible, the lyrics just rip through and turn this joke into something moving. Amazing.
It has a different flavour to it, I like it
This is great love the original also love this

This song right here is playing at my funeral
This feels so right
10/10 best song would recommend
**Ground Control:** Ground Control to Major Tom!
**Major Tom:** This is Madden, John to Ground Control - Commander N. Pony. aieou. John Madden. John Madden. John Madden. John Madden. aieou. Commander N. Pony.
**Ground Control:** ...Major Tom what the *fuck*
the voice actually sounds great
Listened to this together with the original song. Pretty much in sync, except at the end
Came here after hearing the news about John Madden ;_;
Check ignition, and may John's love be with you...
I want to be that astronaut
when they start singing the “here i am sitting in a tin can” bit the lower harmony sounds like Henchman 24 from The Venture Bros
In space, no one can hear you strum
Anyone who wants to jump on a game of moonbase alpha, comment time and timezone here. I am going to try and organize some games
A Classic.
How does this not have millions of views by now?
it keeps getting taken down, im pretty sure.
Great song
all jokes aside this cover is pretty clean

Why do I feel that Stephen Hawking is singing this?

F in the chat this is a mood
Idk why, I might have the brain rot, but I prefer this over the original.
I love this dumb fucking song so much.
