Found by [livejournal.com profile] osewalrus. The song is "Space Girl," written by Ewan McColl and (I think) performed by The Imagined Village, though I may be wrong on that last one.

Oooooh yes! The lady who created this is actually on LJ-- [livejournal.com profile] charmax is an excellent vidder, my favourite one, really, and she provides high quality downloads ofthe videos on her journal as well.

She does the most lovely fanvids, and this one here is quite recent and already one of my favourites. (If you go tothe appropriate LJ entry on her journal you'll see heaps of German people getting excited over the usage of clips from Raumpatrouille Orion in this video :-))

I'm with Steffi on Raumpatrouille Orion. ;P

[...and of course, there's the Dr. Who, and Star Trek footage as well... :]

Where did you find that it was written by Ewan McColl? I found the performance (by The Imagined Village) but not the author.

Yup, is clearly Imagined Village, with Eliza Carthy on vocals.
http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/12537484/Empire-Love/Product.html lists the song as follows:
Space Girl (Trad. Arr. Peggy Seeger/Ewan Maccoll)

Also, from a Guardian album review: "...to Ewan MacColl's quirky Space Girl..."

Also, and I know Reinhard Zierke & know he does his research:
