MP3 available at http://www.symphonyofscience.com.
"We Are All Connected" was made from sampling Carl Sagan's Cosmos, The History Channel's Universe series, Richard Feynman's 1983 interviews, Neil deGrasse Tyson's cosmic sermon, and Bill Nye's Eyes of Nye Series, plus added visuals from The Elegant Universe (NOVA), Stephen Hawking's Universe, Cosmos, the Powers of 10, and more. It is a tribute to great minds of science, intended to spread scientific knowledge and philosophy through the medium of music.
Check out "A Glorious Dawn" by Carl Sagan, another Symphony of Science project!

Lyrics:
[deGrasse Tyson]
We are all connected;
To each other, biologically
To the earth, chemically
To the rest of the universe atomically
[Feynman]
I think nature's imagination
Is so much greater than man's
She's never going to let us relax
[Sagan]
We live in an in-between universe
Where things change all right
But according to patterns, rules,
Or as we call them, laws of nature
[Nye]
I'm this guy standing on a planet
Really I'm just a speck
Compared with a star, the planet is just another speck
To think about all of this
To think about the vast emptiness of space
There's billions and billions of stars
Billions and billions of specks
[Sagan]
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it
But the way those atoms are put together
The cosmos is also within us
We're made of star stuff
We are a way for the cosmos to know itself
Across the sea of space
The stars are other suns
We have traveled this way before
And there is much to be learned
I find it elevating and exhilarating
To discover that we live in a universe
Which permits the evolution of molecular machines
As intricate and subtle as we
[deGrasse Tyson]
I know that the molecules in my body are traceable
To phenomena in the cosmos
That makes me want to grab people in the street
And say, have you heard this??
(Richard Feynman on hand drums and chanting)
[Feynman]
There's this tremendous mess
Of waves all over in space
Which is the light bouncing around the room
And going from one thing to the other
And it's all really there
But you gotta stop and think about it
About the complexity to really get the pleasure
And it's all really there
The inconceivable nature of nature
Thanks, that actually made me tear up a little.

I did not watch it and think: "Boy, some people will use this for fodder for creationism or religious views..." I simply thought that regardless of how it all began, life is a miracle and everyday I try and find beauty in all things, and yet, I have never been disappointed.
By xarous [Affiliate User] 1256238890 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveGreat video! I like the way you took samples of the various programs/ interviews and made them in to one video with original music!
It is fascinating to contemplate where matter came from, why is there a universe, etc.
Thank you for posting this video!:)

Didn't you get the point of Tyson's observation in this video? We are all connected to the universe at the atomic level ("we are made of star stuff") and this is just as true whether that matter is "alive" or "dead". The physical matter that was once Carl Sagan is still there and an integrated element of the physical universe.
