"All Out of Love" by Mercury4

 




Pop quartet Mercury4 cover "All Out of Love," a 1980 single from fellow Melbourne, Australia natives Air Supply.

According to NASA, Mercury has no air supply, as the planet is too small and hot to retain an atmosphere.  Instead, it has a thin exosphere made up of atoms blasted off of the planet by extreme solar winds and meteor strikes.
