I'm creating a playlist of space/Futuristic/robotic/technological Dash in short, science fiction – themed songs to play during a rl draft of a space themed custom set. It could use a few more songs, the more the better. Thing is, I want "generic" songs that have lyrics, that is, no instrumentals and nothing associated with a particular franchise. Psychedelic space styled songs are perfect. If you know of any, please turn me on to them. Thanks! Here's what I have so far.

Playlist updated. I consider the list 99% finished. (There's always room for improvement.) I'm still open to suggestions. Which reminds me, thanks to everyone that suggested songs. I listened to every single one of them. I liked many of them, added a few, but the real benefits went beyond a couple of songs:
1. They sent me in directions I may have not gone on my own.
2. Even songs and musical styles that weren't used helped set the overall vibe of the list by showing me what I wasn't looking for. No stone unturned and all that. After listening to space themed songs from every music style (rave, punk, death metal, etc), it dawned on me that each song should be something that Starlord
might have on a cassette tape.
3. I don't want more than two songs from a single performer. It would be possible to make a long list with just three or four artists.
4. I heard several songs and artists that I'd never heard before, but literally CANNOT believe I'd never heard of Hawkwind before this. I'd also never heard
Trans by Neil Young. Cool stuff.
