(1) Extinction Level Event In: ‘I Sing the Body Electric’ Lyrics?:
Earth says: ”… When I become one with the Sun?’’ | Sun says: ”Creating my own tomorrow When I shall embody the Earth?” |
I sing the body electric I celebrate the me yet to come I toast to my own reunion When I become one with the Sun? | And I’ll look back on Venus I’ll look back on Mars And I’ll burn with the fire of ten million stars And in time, and in time we will all be stars | I sing the body electric I glory in the glow of rebirth Creating my own tomorrow When I shall embody the Earth? | And I’ll serenade Venus I’ll serenade Mars And I’ll burn with the fire of ten million stars And in time, and in time we will all be stars | We are the Emperors now and we are the Czars And in time, and in time we will all be stars | I sing the body electric I celebrate the me yet to come I toast to my own reunion When I become one with the Sun? | And I’ll look back on Venus I’ll look back on Mars And I’ll burn with the fire of ten million stars And in time, and in time we will all be stars And in time, and in time we will all be stars. |
(2) Science says?:
The Sun is expected to swallow Earth in 7.5 billion years. Human species would have long become extinct in about 5 billion years, when the Sun is predicted to make the Earth unsuitable for living in for all living things.
(3) ”7 Extinction Level Events That Could End Life as We Know It”
1. ”The Sun Will Kill Us” ”In about six billion years, the Sun, a medium-size yellow star, will have puffed up to about two hundred times its current size. In this phase, our parent star will be known as a Red Giant. As it expands, it will swallow and destroy the Earth before collapsing into a small core – the white dwarf”. Link: BBC News ‘It is calculated that the Sun will become sufficiently large to engulf the current orbits of Mercury and Venus, and render Earth uninhabitable – but not for about five billion years”. Wikipedia | 2. ”Geomagnetic Reversals May Kill Us” | 3. ”The Big Bad Meteor” | 4. ”The Sea” | 5. ”And the “Winner” Is…Volcanoes” | 6. ”Global Warming and Cooling” | 7. ”Our Own Worst Enemy” |
(4) Solution?
”It’s been suggested that Earth might escape. The Sun will lose mass as it grows, so Earth will spiral further out. But according to calculations performed in 2008, this won’t be enough to save our planet”. Source : BBC Earth
”If that’s true, the only hope lies with us. If any humans are still around, they might have the technology to move the Earth to safety. Otherwise, life on Earth has a maximum life expectancy of 7.5 billion years”. Source :BBC Earth

- “I sing the body electric” is one of the tracks on the 1980 Motion picture soundtrack album “Fame”.
- The vocals were sung by Laura Dean, Irene Cara, Paul McCrane, Traci Parnell and Eric Brockington.
- “Fame” was released in the United States on May 16, 1980 by RSO Records.
- It features nine songs, all of which appear in various scenes in the film.
- In his review for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album five stars out of five and wrote, “Yes, the production techniques often do sound dated … but the music by Michael Gore is dynamic, varied and alive. It was sung with real passion and vigor and it still retains its essential spark 23 years after it was a pop culture phenomenon.” – Wikipedia

(14) Fame 2009 Director Kevin Tancharoen: Biography
A Prodigy, Mr Tancharoen directed Fame 2009 at age 25 years. In our opinion he was the perfect choice because, having been born in 1984, he grew up in the Society that had been impacted by Sir Alan Parker’s 1980 Fame; and he had also made music videos for Pop stars like Britney Spears who had trained in the performing arts and achieved the Fame that the Fame students are seeking. Fame 2009 very successfully presented the 20th Century Fame story in a 21st Century setting as we are able to hold on to our memory of the much loved and much cherished 1980 Alan Parker Fame while making room for the 2009 Fame and also look forward to yet another version in future showing us what its like to be a student of the performing arts with big dreams of Fame. Fame 2009 makes possible the following exam question: ‘Compare and contrast Fame 1980 and Fame 2009‘. In our opinion, Mr Tancharoen is due another big bucks (big investors?) Blockbuster Movie?.
