Haha that and other connections as well! It's also a song by Rush of an explorer who rides his spaceship into the heart of the black hole to become the god of balance. Balance -> keeping the rocket pointed up :)
- jcims 6y agoWelp this made me realize what kind of filthy Rush casual I am. Started listening on my phone to see if I recognized it. Nope. Grab headphones and renew my sympathy for Alex Lifeson, in just about any other band he would be a beast lol.
- cubano 6y agoCheck out La Villa Strangiato next...it contains, in my quite humble opinion, the best solo Alex ever composed and performed.
- SummerlyMars 6y agoMake sure to listen to Hemispheres (from the album of the same name) afterward. It continues the plot of the song and extends it with the 'god of balance' stuff the parent mentioned.
- usefulcat 6y agoThat's awesome! As soon as I saw the name I was totally hoping for that :)
- autocorr 6y agoThat's... even more clever! :) Obviously this astronomer is deficient in musical taste.
- cubano 6y agoI immediately jumped to the Rush Hemispheres [ my favorite album by the boys, btw ] Cygnus-X1 reference, and I feel my instincts were correct when I noticed the guitar amps in the background of the thrust-vectoring video. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOiNJAihxhEA67VCx54dzVX3bZ6IwMISzlYK4Z4wI7OD1gW3hIzA7qHVCS04RHWCQ?key=UXhkU2hhQ2tjbHNaYktrM0RPeWZvbUxxT3NYdG9n https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOiNJAihxhEA67VCx54dzVX...
