I'm shocked to learn that Space Oddity is a bustout, as far as the database goes.

BOS3 Nilsson, Everybody's Talkin'.

Heard one of Dave's old 1969 bumpers leading into the Midnight Cowboy clip.
Just once I'd like to hear some real Fred Neil; they used to play "The Dolphins" out here back in the day.

This is easily the OMGWTF bustout of AL's nascent 10@10 career. And she's had some beauts so far.

And a shoutout to the late Bob Bogle, too. Didn't the Drive play this yesterday, too?

Wonder if they were commissioned to write this for the TV show, or it was already written, then licensed by the producers of 5-0?

This isn't the version I'm used to hearing either--anyone know where it might have originated?

I believe it was written for the TV show (that's not them doing it on the show, I don't think) and they saw a good cover opportunity.

ETA: "The song was composed by Morton Stevens, who also composed numerous episode scores" (per Wiki)
