serai: A kiss between Casey Connor and Zeke Tyler (ILoveSong)
.



The Galaxy Song - Monty Python



Probably the sweetest and most easily memorable rundown of the basic facts pertaining to the Earth's place in the Universe.

I adored this piece from the first moment I saw it, back when The Meaning of Life was out in theaters. I was particular ecstatic to see the depiction of the Mother Goddess giving birth to the Universe; talk about a surprise! After the film, when my friend Pam and I were discussing it, I noted how the audience had laughed at that image, and asked her, "If we had all been raised with that idea, that the Universe came into being through childbirth rather than through handicraft, can you imagine how we'd laugh if Python had included an animation of some bearded old man playing in the mud?" She smiled and admitted I had a point.

Must remember to teach my nephew Tommy this little ditty.
