In conclusion
This time, I picked out Western songs themed around stars and space, and even with the same theme, the mood varied quite a bit from track to track.
That said, when it comes to British music, there’s something spatial… or rather, otherworldly about it.
I felt a very distinctive atmosphere in every song.
Is that David Bowie’s influence, perhaps? Rag Music features Western music from a variety of other themes as well, so be sure to check it out.
