'Cosmic Dancer' (1971) is a hushed, introspective song by T. Rex, featured on the album *Electric Warrior*. Marc Bolan’s gentle vocals sing of 'dancing myself right out the womb' over a soft acoustic melody, giving it a fairy-tale, mystical feel. Unlike T. Rex’s heavier hits, this track is serene and psychedelic. In a cosmic twist, it made history in 2013 when NASA’s Curiosity rover played 'Cosmic Dancer' on Mars – making it one of the first songs ever beamed from another planet. This interplanetary debut cements its title quite literally, underscoring T. Rex’s enduring star-quality.
