Mr. Spaceman – The Byrds
From the sixties. Another way to take a trip: hitch a ride with a spaceman!
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along for a ride

And here’s a comic for the same song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5Q8-ARJwb0
Come Sail Away – Styx
Styx had a similar idea in the seventies.
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies

Close Encounters of the Third Kind – John Williams
Contact with extraterrestrials was the whole point of the movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”
From: DarkLordSealskin
Meco did a disco version of the song:

‘39 – Queen
I love this song. It deals with the time differential between people on Earth and people on a space ship traveling close to the speed of light. Time on the spaceship would slow down compared to time on Earth.
Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me calling you
Write your letters in the sand
For the day I'll take your hand
In the land that our grand-children knew
The sad reunion of the spaceman and his wife, who is much older than him now.
Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me calling you
All your letters in the sand
Cannot heal me like your hand
For my life, still ahead, pity me.

Flash Gordon – Queen
A happier song is this one. Here’s the trailer for the movie from 1980.
From: wildone
And here’s Queen performing the song.

Star Wars – Meco
And we can’t forget Star Wars. The original movie came out during the Disco age of the late 70’s.

You Got Lucky – Tom Petty
Not a SF song, but a video about a future like the Mad Max movies.
