Ok Neil DeGrasse Tyson
Fly me to the moon
Let me kick it’s fucking ass
Let me show it what I learned in my
Moon jujitsu class
Every song ever is about romance, sex or drugs.
This song is about romance. They didn’t mean it literally.
Edit: I’m pretty sure I got baited but I’ll keep it up. Got me today, squid :P

You need to open up your music tastes…
92% of songs are about love or sex.
That’s got nothing to do with my personal taste, that’s sex selling (pop) music.
Check me out, years of music with no words:
I wish there was more variety. It’s ridiculous, frankly. The non-romantic songs can have such interesting subjects. Where are all the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgeralds and I Wish that I could Wear Hats?
Metal, and punk have a lower ratio of love songs.
Less sex and love and more politics and drugs.
True, but unfortunately for me I don’t tend to enjoy those genres
It’s old, but still entirely factual:

Or death.
Well, in other words, what they’re trying to say is , “darling, hold my hand. Darling, kiss me.”

Or maybe “in other words, fuck the moon, in other words, please destroy it”.
God damn it.
Now it’s in my head.
You insidious bastard.
Listen to it to get it out of your head! I recommend the Blossom Dearie version.
Spring on Jupiter is delightful! The way the helium3 layer playful mixes with the metallic lithium layer… majestic.

Is this about the mirrors again?
Love turns you stupid. Blissfully stupid
Made me chuckle this morning. Of course the writer, Bart Howard, wasn’t being literal. I bet what’s really eating at you is how much money they’ve made on this song for seemingly nonsensical lyrics.
Great tune. 😜
To be honest, I just heard the song and thought, “what a silly thing to sing.”
We need more silly in this world, don’t we?
Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars - it’s about space travel in general.
Not if Utada signs it.
I don’t care! Seeing spring on Mars and Jupiter would be fucking awesome!
Spring on Jupiter is a bit windy
