Venom: The Last Dance’s Trailer Song Explained
The song featured inVenom: The Last Dance’sfirst official trailer is “Space Oddity” by David Bowie, albeit a distorted, slowed-down iteration of the iconic tune. “Space Oddity” was released in July 1969 as the opening track on Bowie’s second studio album,David Bowie, and was rush-released as a single to capitalize on the Apollo 11 Moon landing, even being used as background music for the BBC’s coverage of the historic event. “Space Oddity” marked a huge divergence for Bowie, focused on the fictional Major Tom, and inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s2001: A Space Odyssey, highlighting Bowie’s feelings of alienation.
“Space Oddity’s” release marked the beginning of a transformation for David Bowie, who entered into a period of experimentation before returning as the flamboyant and androgynous Ziggy Stardust. As well as being inspired by2001: A Space Odyssey, “Space Oddity” was deeply inspired by Bowie’s own feelings of loneliness and heartache following his break-up from dancer Hermione Farthingale. The fact that “Space Oddity” is featured inVenom: The Last Dance’sfirst trailersuggeststhe intense emotions delivered throughout the otherworldly song will be pivotal to the upcoming movie’s much-anticipated storyline.

Why “Space Oddity” Works So Well For Venom: The Last Dance
Perhaps a little too literally, Venom himself could be described as a “Space Oddity” in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.The Venom Symbioteis an alien being from the planet Klyntar who was brought to Earth after being found on a passing comet. Even on Klyntar, however, Venom was something of an oddity, as he was deemed a “loser” by his own kind, though found a way to become something of a hero on Earth.With other Symbiotes traveling from Klyntar to Earth inVenom: The Last Dance, Venom’s oddities may be put on full display, giving extra weight to the song.
The fact that more Symbiotes will be coming to Earth inVenom: The Last Dancesuggests that more “Space Oddities” will be seen in the movie. On top of this,David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” tells the story of Major Tom, who finds himself lost in space and losing communication with Earth, forcing him to say his goodbyes before his death. This seems to hammer down on the idea thatVenom: The Last Dancewill see Eddie Brock and Venom embarking on one last adventure before meeting their own makers, though how this comes to pass is yet to be seen.
