“Ashes to Ashes” is a follow up to “Space Oddity”, reinterpreting its iconic stranded spaceman Major Tom as a drug addict lost in the throes of substance abuse.
An art rock, art pop and new wave song led by a flanged piano riff, the lyrics act as a sequel to Bowie's 1969 hit "Space Oddity": the astronaut Major Tom has succumbed to drug addiction and floats isolated in space. Bowie partially based the lyrics on his own experiences with drug addiction throughout the 1970s.

Ashes to Ashes is about the dropping of the Atom bomb from the Enola Gay on Hiroshima Japan..... The name of the bomb aimer on that day was Major Tom Ferebee.
