So bubbly and cloying, and happy… just like the Federation. If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it.
I really liked it when the show first started. I thought the divergence from the regular formula at the time was a nice change. The theme of the song was also on point for the theme of the show - humanity coming into their own on the galactic stage. I’m in the middle of my first rewatch since the show first aired. I still like it. As for adding a base line to it in season 3…WTF?
Yeah their decision to add that baseline is insane… There’s another version that’s got a heavier string section as well as a few other alterations. It’s my preferred version of the song because it sounds less rock. This being that version.
The most insane thing about it is not the music, it’s the collage of space race scenes that shows NASA crap, from the country that lost the space race.
