It wasn't exactly one of her typical concerts, especially when she would be performing it in of the temporary domes that the crews had arranged. It was one of their 'pop-up' structures that would create a dome no larger than a few houses together, complete with an airlock and oxygen. People would enter the door dressed in their spacesuits before finding themselves bunched together in standing space with a hastily erected stage with a few speakers and minimal lighting. The only backdrop would be the construction site of the Docklands and the crater wall beyond. There would be no backup dancers or singers here. However, strangely enough, it still made it appropriate for a low-key acoustic performance.

Miranda Rhapsody

Mega pop star and actress Miranda Rhapsody took to the stage, having just come in her own 'fashionable' black spacesuit with gold trim and some ruffles to give it a slight dress appearance. She smiled brightly at her small audience, her heart-shaped birthmark quite visible on her cheekbones. The audience cheered for her and immediately simmered down as the music started with someone on the keyboard, her performance was...

To The Moon and Back
She's taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying
Mama never loved her much
And daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot
To come (and she'll say to him)
She's saying

I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'll be if you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where
We belong
So would you be my baby
Ooh-ooh

She can't remember a time
When she felt needed
If love was red then she was colour-blind
All her friends they've been tried for treason
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying
Love is like a barren place
And reaching out for human faith is
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for
So baby gonna take a dive and push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on the stars
(What a pleasant dream) just saying

I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'll be if you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where
We belong
So would you be my baby
Ooh-ooh

I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'll be if you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where
We belong
So would you be my baby
Ooh-ooh

Mamma never loved her much
And daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot
To come (and she'll say to him)
She's saying

I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'll be if you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where
We belong
So would you be my baby
Ooh-ooh

I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'll be if you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where
We belong
So would you be my baby
Ooh-ooh
