Sosa, Germany
Sosa is a former municipality in the western Ore Mountains, in the Erzgebirgskreis, Saxony, Germany. It is a state-recognized health resort, that has belonged to the town Eibenstock since 1 January 2011.
Geography
Sosa lies on both sides of the like-named Sosabach at an elevation of between 550 and 817 m above sea level. Also in the community is the Rote Grube (“Red Mine”).
History
Sosa began as a forest village (Waldhufendorf). In 1453 it was first mentioned as Sossaw, although its beginnings are believed to have been in the 13th century. The people originally worked the land; however, from the 18th century onwards, mining gained in importance. In the second half of the 19th century, mining was diminishing in importance, and many migrated to the Zwickau coalfields. There was a short revival between 1947 and 1956 when the Soviet-German Wismut Corporation (Sowjetisch-Deutsche Aktiengesellschaft Wismut, or SDAG Wismut) mined uranium here, bringing about a new upswing.

Spaceman (Babylon Zoo song)
"Spaceman" is a song by British band Babylon Zoo. It was released in December 1995 as the lead single from their debut album The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes. Featuring heavily distorted guitars and metallic, robotic-sounding vocals, it went straight to Number 1 on the UK Singles Chart on 21 January 1996 after being featured in a popular Levi's jeans TV advert in late 1995, and became the fastest-selling UK single in over thirty years since The Beatles' "Can't Buy Me Love".
The song was the seventh to reach number one after being featured in a Levi advert.
Song history
Promotional copies of "Spaceman" had been distributed, and the Arthur Baker remix was chosen to tie in with the release on 1 December 1995 of a new UK Levi's jeans TV advert titled "Planet" which was directed by Vaughan Arnell and Anthea Benton. The advertisement concentrated on Baker's speeded-up vocal section at the beginning and end of the song.
The initial intro to "Spaceman" on the promotional copies, before it was used for the advert, featured Mann's whispering vocals of "I killed your mother, I killed your sister, I killed you all." These lyrics were later taken out of the song and replaced with the more radio-friendly Arthur Baker introduction; although, the "I killed you all" lyric is still buried in there. There was a lower budget video made for this version.
Spaceman (Harry Nilsson song)
"Spaceman" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson, released on his 1972 album, Son of Schmilsson.
One of the highlights on Son of Schmilsson, with its dramatic opening fanfare and a cross between folk with a heavy R&B rhythm, the song explains the desire and downfall of the narrator, who wished to be a spaceman and now wants to go back to Earth but is stuck in space.
The song was one of the three Nilsson's songs that became a hit of the year, the other two being "Remember (Christmas)" and "You're Breaking My Heart". ( "Joy" became a minor hit)
The song was covered by American band The Roches on the 1995 tribute album For the Love of Harry: Everybody Sings Nilsson.
