A timeless masterpiece that lets you feel the cosmos. A space-themed song filled with dreams and love, evoking starry skies and galaxies.
What kind of music do you think of when you hear “space”? If we limit ourselves to just the word “space,” the scope might feel narrow, but there are songs that capture it from many angles—like the moon and the stars.
This is a playlist packed with theme songs from TV anime and films that use space as a motif, as well as masterpieces that feature planets, stars, and the moon in their titles.
While researching, I was surprised to find that many space-themed songs are essentially love songs.
How romantic.
Please enjoy a generous selection of space songs that brim with dreams and hope, and overflow with love for that special someone!
