One of the quintessential italo tracks. ‘Spacer Woman’ has it all: a synth line that burrows deep into the subconscious; cymbals that sound like they’ve been lifted from The Flying Lizards’ ‘Money’; a melodic refrain that sounds eerily like that used on ‘No UFOs’, an overarching industrial feel that is sporadically softened by some strategically arranged sound design and, last but not least, the amazing vocals which feel strangely tuneless and occasionally tone deaf, but fit the track like a glove. One of the most iconic looking back to look forward tunes ever made. Ahead of its time, but completely of it.
