Life on Mars

Last week, I watched the ending of Life on Mars, a BBC show about a police officer who gets run over in 2006 and wakes up in 1973. After waking up and returning to "regular" life, he returns to his job as a police officer. When he discovers that he cannot feel (he had cut his hand), he goes up to the roof of the police station. At this point, David Bowie's "Life on Mars?" (on which the show's title is based on), begins to play. And then he jumps.

That whole ending got to me and here it is, for your listening pleasure, "Life on Mars?"
