I love the lyric:

"The chances of anything coming from Mars is a million to one" they said

"But still they come"

Even though outside the remit of DYR, being originally broadcast on radio in the 50's, War of the Worlds was so iconic, because the listeners went into panic mode. thinking it was a real news item

There's also live stage versions

This one stars Justin Timberlake as the singer & Jeff Wayne as the orchestra conductor
