Laura Ruhí Vidal – Theme from Star Trek
An evening pause: I am willing to bet that practically no one among my readers has actually ever seen this sung.
Hat tip Diane Zimmerman.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
Bravo! But I wish she’d done it in English.
Wasn‘t this sung during the closing credits in the first season ?
David M. Cook: It was sung in both the opening and closing credits of the original series, all three years. What I meant was seeing it sung live. I never have.
And she drops the Vulcan hand sign on them.
The lady has some pipes!
As the first officer would say, “Fascinating…”
Mr. Z.,–
If Wikipedia is to be believed—the vocal for the original theme has a somewhat complicated history.
“somewhat complicated history”
