Timeline
Peter Schilling (born Pierre Michael Schilling; 28 January 1956) is a German synthpop musician whose songs often feature science-fiction themes like aliens, astronauts and catastrophes.
He is best-known for his 1983 hit single "Major Tom (Coming Home)" which was an international success.
Schilling was born in Stuttgart, Germany.
His 1983 album, Error in the System, generated his only international hit single, "Major Tom (Coming Home)", a retelling of David Bowie's classic 1969 song "Space Oddity".
Although the song was originally recorded in German, the international hit version was sung in English.
In 1984 and 1985, Schilling released the albums 120 Grad and 120 Grad ' s English-language version, 1985's Things to Come.
From 1986 to 1989, Schilling released non-album singles and put out his 1988 compilation The Different Story.
In 1990, Schilling suffered from burnout and the following year he took a break.
In 1994, he married his girlfriend Catyana.
It was released on vinyl and CD in 1995, and appears on the Japanese dance compilation CD Dancemania 1.
The song is based on and includes vocal samples from the German science-fiction TV show Raumpatrouille Orion.
At the beginning of the 2000s he formed a new band and currently plays live concerts with his band, touring Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
He has been married to his second wife since 2012.
In the late '90s, Schilling formed a side project called Space Pilots, which appeared on the first issue of the popular dance music compilation Dancemania series.
The band included Catyana Schilling, J. Feifel, and P. Magnet.
They have recorded only one song, titled "Trip to Orion".
Since 2018, Tessloff Verlag has published the children's book series Der kleine Major Tom in cooperation with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Bernd Flessner, as well as illustrations by Stefan Lohr.
In the radio plays based on the books, Peter Schilling himself voices the great Major Tom.
At the International Astronautical Congress 2018 in Bremen there was a world premiere of "Major Tom" by the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen in a classical arrangement by Oliver Groenewald arranged for this purpose.
"Major Tom" can also be heard in the official DLR soundtrack and trailer for Mission Horizons.
The songs "Alles an Dir" and the English-language counterpart "All the things you are" are the musical inspiration for official DLR videos for the Cosmic kiss space mission with the German ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer.
Since 2020, Schilling has experienced something of a revival due to the success of his older songs, both the originals and new live versions and his newest album ‘Vis Viva’ on his YouTube channel.
