I've been on an 80s kick lately and came across one of my favorite songs called Major Tom (Coming Home). It's been remade into a more energetic modern version by Shiny Toy Guns. What do you think of the remake? Is the remake better or does the original reign supreme. You decide.

SHINY TOY GUNS used to be one of my favorite bands, and I like the cover.

x2 hated the cover version, something about Peter Schilling's voice that ties the song together for me

Schilling.

But I prefer "Ashes to Ashes" and "Space Oddity."
