@DiamondKing - NASA by Ariana Grande

 

''This song is about an intergalactic long distance relationship which shows you can love each other even when you have (the) space between you.''

@Animal Claws - Someone In The Dark by Michael Jackson

"The atmosphere of the song, besides being magical and relaxing, is a friendship between Michael and an alien.  "A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
 Like it was written in the stars I knew
 My metaphors like Light, Stars, stars shining are used to refer to such an alien, who calls him Secret Friend."

@Marges - Afterglow by Taylor Swift

''idk why I did come up with this song but it immediately came into my mind''

@dllcll -  If I Got You by ZAYN

''I picked If I Got You, because it’s overall space-themed. The song is really sweet and kind of euphoric. I think, this would definitely fit the soundtrack about an intergalactic love story.''

@Mirages - Supernatural by Mariah Carey

''The song talks about supernatural love, about being able to communicate without words about drifting in the clouds etc. You can explain these things literally - its intergalactic love they're floating in a spaceship among the clouds while being able to use an advanced technology that allows them to communicate without words. You can also interpret it as a metaphor of a strong out of this world love. Which makes the love intergalactic too.''

@Jose P - Future Lovers by Madonna

''I mean, the title says it all. The lyrics talk about future lovers riding their ambitions high, shining for eternity in a world that’s free. Couple the lyrics with the futuristic electronic production and you can totally insert this song into a sci-fi movie about intergalactic love.''

@Davian - Genie 2.0 by Christina Aguilera

''We all know and love Genie in A Bottle, but did you know it had a huge revamp in 2008? This song is literally remixed to go along with her sci-fi, superhero visuals of the Keeps Gettin’ Better-era. I always imagine myself being in a sci-fi when I plays this song .In the Genie 2.0 Xtina sings about being alone for so long and wanting to be with someone. Someone has an eye on her, but she doesn’t want to give herself away too easily. What if he hurts her? He has to prove himself before the genie is released.''

@Nuggets - E.T. by Katy Perry

''The lyrics are pretty self explanatory. Katy sings about her relationship with an alien or a "futuristic lover" as she likes to name it. That's pretty much it. I don't want you guys to feel like i'm slacking off on this one but i really don't know how to describe this song with more words, i think it just doesn't need that much of an explanation. I hope you guys enjoy it, it's definetely one of the greatest gems of her discography.''

@Ryusei - Heroin by Lana Del Rey

''I thought it sounded spacey also see my other reasons in my promo please because the original was too long to be posted (continued on a post Ryusei will make)''

@Bloody Grammys - Buzzcut Season by Lorde

''Lorde sings: "I live in a hologram with you" in this mystical piece. The lyrics are often enigmatic and alien-like: "I remember when your head caught flame", "all the girls with heads inside a dream".

The production is futuristic and, together with Lorde's voice, it would fit right in a sci-fi romantic drama.''

@loathereality - Unconditional Love by Esperanza Spalding

''Well an intergalactic love would be an unconditional one. The jazz queen wrote this song especially for this round. Check the chorus: We could change the whole story of love Same old play I'm getting tired of No more acting these predictable roles Just us living unconditional love She decided to pick her lover from another galaxy to get over those predictable roles.''

@SamanthaC- In A World Like This by Backstreet Boys

''This song could apply to any world and the love can continue in any universe.''

@HighRoad - Supernatural by Kesha

When you take my body to the stars, I believe it. Boy this love is supernatural” This song is not just about having s*x with ghosts but about an out of this worldly love (aka Space), the perfect soundtrack for your romantic sci-fi needs.

@Gimme More - Alien by Britney Spears

''Britney likened herself to a lonely extraterrestrial waiting around for love in the song "Had to get used to the world I was on while still yet unsure if I knew where I belong,". She sings about travelling across the cosmos to find some comfort in a barren universe. "The stars in the sky, look like home, take me home," she sings before concluding that she is, thankfully, no longer alone. 

I hope you enjoy this intergalactic love song! check out the lyrics''

@Musicisfreedom - This Music’s No Good Without You by Cher

''The perfect futuristic / intergalactic lovesong. The lyrics could imply that she is missing her lover from another planet, even the video implies it. She even calls this person a "whirlwind from outerspace" in the verses. Everything from the themes, video and even the sound is futuristic.''

@Ally Campana - Finally // beautiful stranger by Halsey

''The ‘beautiful stranger’ in the song is an allusion to the alien that Halsey (human) is falling in love with. She was at first afraid of falling for this beautiful stranger since they’re not the same species - interspecies relationships was still frowned upon at that time. But one lonely night, she realises her love for him and that living without him in her life, was not living at all. Halsey is a singer at a bar located at the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy. And here, she professes her love for him while he’s sitting in the audience watching her.''

@Antonio - Speakerphone by Kylie Minogue

''This electronic masterpiece would fit right into such a soundtrack. It's got the futuristic sci-fi sound, it's got the intergalactic metaphors of colliding stars as human attraction: "let the stars collide", it's got the full package.''

Ryusei

Promo: ------------------------------- Lana Del Rey -------------------------------

Alright here my full thoughts that couldnt be put in the list above. PLEASE READ THIS :pray: 

 Picture this. Three-way relationship. A man, a woman and drugs. The lyrics describe the plot of the movie. This woman and her boyfriend are both addicts which in the future is handled by a system that acts like drugs but just in the right dose to appease the addict. The woman catches her man abusing this system as he is slowly destroying himself. So when he's passed out she uses a floating device to take him and put him far away from any drugs in the hopes that he can handle a cold turkey and returns to him when he's ok

"I put you on an aeroplane, destined for a foreign land. I hoped that you'd come back again
And tell me everything's okay" 

The woman tries again and again to come off drugs by going to a clinic on the moon but because she misses her man too much she starts abusing the drug machine too.

 "I'm flyin' to the moon again, dreamin' about heroin. How it gave you everything and took your life away"

Eventually he returns and they live together but she hasnt gotten over her addiction and decides to leave somewhere far away in the galaxy in hopes of being able to return to the person she loves one day. 

"I'm flyin' to the moon again, dreamin' about marzipan.
Taking all my medicine to take my thoughts away
I'm getting on that aeroplane, leavin' my old man again.
I hope that I come back one day
To tell you that I really changed, baby."

Also keep in mind part of this story plays on earth but sci-fi comes in with the planes and stuff flying to other galaxies and it's more of a tragic longing love story.

Round 3 Promo; Supernatural (Kesha)

giphy.gif

“Baby, when we're touching in the dark, can you feel it?
I can hear the pounding of my heart, can you feel it?
When you take my body to the stars, I believe it
Boy, this love is supernatural, can you feel it?”

This absolutely fits the theme. People think this song is only about extraterrestrial love but it is also about space. Kesha & her lover are deep in their relationship and is so supernatural that he takes her body to space / to the stars.

Britney Spears - Alien

latest?cb=20151028171935

'Britney likened herself to a lonely extraterrestrial waiting around for love in the song "Had to get used to the world I was on while still yet unsure if I knew where I belong,". She sings about travelling across the cosmos to find some comfort in a barren universe. "The stars in the sky, look like home, take me home," she sings before concluding that she is, thankfully, no longer alone. :heart:

During a listening party Britney explained 'Alien', "deals with loneliness and how you can be surrounded at all times by friends, family and adoring fans who you love and still feel alone. Sometimes I need to remind myself that I'm not alone." "We have moments when we feel alienated, shy or nervous. That's what the song is about."

I believe the song perfectly fits the theme, I hope you guys see that also :) 

Check the lyrics out:

Spoiler

There was a time I was one of a kind
Lost in the world out of me myself and I
Was lonely then like an alien
I tried but I never figured it out
Why I always felt like a stranger in a crowd
Ooh that was then like an alien
But the stars in the sky look like home, take me home
And the light in your eyes lets me know I'm not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Crossed through the universe to get where you are
Travel the night riding on a shooting star
Was lonely then like an alien
Had to get used to the world I was on
While yet still unsure if I knew where I belong
Ooh That was then like an alien
But the stars in the sky look like home, take me home
And the light in your eyes lets me know I'm not not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
But the stars in the sky look like home, take me home
And the light in your eyes lets me know I'm not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
(Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone
Not alone not alone not alone - not alone not alone not alone)

Kylie Minogue - Speakerphone

"Let the stars collide"

tumblr_n1p8segxuO1qggfapo3_r2_250.gifvtumblr_n1p8segxuO1qggfapo4_r2_250.gifv

Kylie and her lover are pictured in this song as two stars that become one. The song itself is full of robotic/ sci-fi elements- the voice effect, the background and the structure of short lines, often one word, make it suit the futuristic soundtrack perfectly. Just give it a listen, it's a hand in a glove. :pray:

Imma do some promo just in case, but this submission is pretty much self-explanatory. The song talks about, well, future lovers. The lyrics may not have been meant in a figurative but we can interpret it in a literal sense as well. 

Connect to the sky
Future lovers ride
Their ambitions high
Would you like to try?
Let me be your guide
Put aside your pride
Future lovers hide
Love inside their eyes

Not controlled by time
Future lovers shine
For eternity
In a world that's free
Put away your past
Love will never last
If you're holding on
To a dream that's gone

On top of the lyrics, it also has a very cool futuristic sound to it with strong synths and electronic beats, giving it a sci-fi feel that compliments the lyrics.

Hence why this song is a great choice for this round :vegas:

Animal Claws

So, as the playlist is showing, I had chosen Someone In The Dark, so I decided to make you listen to this song because it's so much better than Heartbreaker :kiss:

@A Hybrid if you could update it i would be very glad :heart:

Round 3 Promo - Someone In The Dark

images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS7pfTxR67aKaggvmDV42n

The song plays Michael being friends with an Alien.  This song has perfect theme placement since the atmosphere of the song is relaxing and sends you to the star and the universe, just as the song portrays Michael's feelings for the Alien. 

Michael never had a lovely childhood, so as an adult, he always wanted to be a child and in this song portrays his loneliness.  He just wanted someone in the dark with him ...

LYRICS (EXCERPT)

All alone wishing on stars
Waiting for you to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger who'd be my friend

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells you never be afraid
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you

Listen to this angelical song :hug:

Promo for Round 3 - If I Got You by ZAYN

I just wanted to post lyrics here:

“Think I'm from space
My soul fell down
I found the Earth
Not leaving now
I know your face
Think you fell too
And ain't no place now, if I got you”

“Anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere you go
Anywhere you go
Round the universe
I'll be there, I'll be there
Wherever you go, wherever you go, babe”

And lastly, the highnotes starting from 2:52 are out of this world :hor:
