This was my entrance music at our wedding. It took a while for my husband (more of a sci-fi fan than me) to convince me but it was totally the right choice. It is beautiful.
I'm so glad to have experienced listening to the voice of an unseen entity, it was a female voice and she said, "never fear because I will always be with you".
I believe as you do ...until someone told me. Are you so arrogant as to think we are the only one in the universe? and then, it all had to come from somewhere, god? the force? call it what you will.
@GalenDarkmoon Unless you are implying that you are using an argument that only a grade school student could regard as valid (considering the short sightedness of it), and for my own mental well being I should refrain from "arguing" with you any further. In that case I agree with you, and encourage you to at least try to develop your mental skills to at least be on par with the those attending secondary school.
@therealonethistime If there was nothing to suggest the existence of God the concept would not have arose in the first place. Intellectual one upmanship only works if you actually have one yourself.
@flockofseagulls87 The past participle form of arise is "arisen." I could say that the universe was created by magical Barbie fairies. Even though nothing specifically suggests this, the concept exists. Using the mere existence of a theory as proof to support the theory itself is a logical fallacy referred to as circular reasoning. Also, attacking my intelligence only serves to make you seem incapable of proper ratiocination, which further evinces the idea that you are driven by fear.
@therealonethistime On the contrary. Using words like "ratiocination" on a youtube comments board for a piece of the soundtrack for a sci-fi television show tells me that you are quite afraid to deal with the world. Honestly, when's the last time you've been laid?
@flockofseagulls87 "Honestly, when's the last time you've been laid?" Pathetic. You are 24 years old. I would expect a comment like that from someone my age. Two-thousand years is insignificant in juxtaposition to the time period of modern human existence. Belief systems have existed since even the Neanderthals. You aren't even worth my time. You're just stating random facts about your religion that don't prove anything.
I agreee with you... I feel like BSG was trying to tell us that "God" is beyond human comprehension; such a force cannot be monopolized by religion. Instead of one philosophy claiming the "true" knowledge of God, all of our experiences is noted by some kind of intervention that leads to a meaningful realization that God is working for the betterment of all things... human or otherwise. Humility is a requirement. We are not the center of the universe.
@flockofseagulls87 Humans, with limited knowledge, looked out into the vast universe having no answers. Seeing nothing capable of explaining how this occurred, they began to project their own intelligence onto the cosmos through personification. This is easily exemplified by polytheism, where deities are driven by emotions and carnality (just like humans). Over time, these baseless beliefs have changed, but they are still baseless nonetheless.
@therealonethistime The most childish concepts of the divine often come from those who seek to discredit it the most.Traditional Christian theology, for example, has understood this unconscious anthropomorphic projection for two thousand years. Hence the pseudo-dionysius calling for the destruction of all archetypes when contemplating God. Or Aquinas stating that in god essence and existence are synonymous, and that this essence is unknowable to the human mind.
i hate so much the fact that my life will go on the usual way and that slowly i'll forget the complexity and perfection of this show, and the emotions it extracts from me.
@deusnovaomni Precisely. I finished BSG early this year, about january-february. I remember when I watched the last few episodes on a row the day before one of my final exams for that semester, and I had this song on a loop on my head as I did the test. I still remembered every single episode on the series and how I felt it had actually changed my way of thinking. Now I can barely remember each season start and finale and the themes of the midseasons. It's quite depressing... :(
A graceful, elegant, peaceful, piece of art. I agree that Bear McCreary should be known to all, i would put him up there with Beethoven, and Mozart. Truly pieces of art, all of his work is. If life had music to it, this would be the song I would hear all the time. i to hope that when I die, wherever I may go, that this is the song and feeling that is eternal for me.
@chiefx77 To add on to what I had said, I think that we should give some credit to the girl who played "Six" as well. Gaius and Six played well off of each other as actors.
This TV show changed my point on view on life, this song is realy fabulous and I am realy crazy from Gaïus Baltar .... I would like to be him :-) I am very frustrated BattleStar Galactica is now ended I realy would like to see a suit .
Love this piece. Tweeted about it a few nights ago, about how I wished it were longer, and Bear McCreary himself replied recommending I listen to "An Easterly View" from season four... which I must now go out and buy.
i had been hearing traces of this song throughout the episodes leading to the finale, and found myself humming them quietly durring the day. When the full song played i had tears in my eyes this song is profoundly beautiful and epic.
The last 25 seconds of this song are the greatest expression of surrender to the inevitable that I've ever heard in music. Just a vast, sweeping spiral of giddy, helpless madness. Absolutely breathtaking.
It's a shame Caprica didn't quite life up to BSG's quality. I would have loved to hear this song back in Caprica during a climax as to why and how the Cylons became as they were in BSG.
Let's hope Blood & Chrome has more success in giving the series its popper spin-off/prequel.
And as an aside, the lines Six says to Gaius in the corresponding scene are such a perfect accompaniment to the music:
"Life is a melody, Gaius. A rhythm of notes that become your existence once played in harmony with God's plan."
That is one of the most beautifully expressed sentiments I've ever heard. It actually makes me sad to be agnostic, as otherwise, those would be my words to live by. It's so deeply moving, it makes me wish I believed.
You bring up an interesting point. I think that intellectually, I am an agnostic. However, I would consider myself a believer simply because I don't like the thought of a meaningless universe. Lines like this in BSG really emphasize the idea that perhaps there really is a divine plan, and that is inspiring. Whether such a plan exists I cannot know - I can only hope. And that is really the best example of faith.
Wouldn't that be an atheist, not an agnostic? Also, I do not think that an agnostic is "free" in any sense. There's a difference between being undecided and free. Agnostics argue that there isn't enough evidence to support or deny the existence of God. It is highly unlikely that more evidence will surface in the future to support either side. So, in essence, an agnostic has really given up on the God question. That is not freedom imho; it is uncertainty.
@veritas89g I am ignostic, that is, I don't care at all wether there is a god or not. simply put: it doesn't make any difference because we cant'discuss a thing that nobody knows like god. it's theological noncognitivism and it's exactly what I think about this and this is being free (free from a god idea or need of it)
That is not an agnostic. An agnostic does care about the existence of God, but does not believe either way. What you are describing is actually a non-theist, someone who does not even care if God exists or not. An example would be Confucius, who said, "How can we serve the gods when we do not even know how to serve humanity."
And as a theist, I would say that we can know God in a very limited sense. I agree with you that we cannot "know" God in the intellectual sense though.
@carpediva That was one of the best scenes ever in television history. Epic story in series, leading up to that moment, the dialogue, with that music in the background, AND best of all, how it all tied into the final episode so beautifully. Best show in TV history. I usually don't watch made for TV science fiction, as I think most of it sucks, but this show, was appealing on so many levels, and even the F/X were good (movie quality actually).
@Bawbster1 Agreed on all counts, save one: I wouldn't say it's the *best* TV show in history; IMHO that honor goes to "The Wire." But it's Top 5 easy, and beyond that, it is my *favorite* of all time.
And a cool factoid from the commentaries about the amazing synergy between this and the finale: it wasn't planned in advance! They wrote this amazing scene not knowing exactly how to pay it off, then came up with a brilliant and organic solution during the break between the last two seasons.
@carpediva well obviously you want to believe in God and the most logical conclusion that he wouldn't just leave us to drift around, there would be some kind of organized plan
@HasanKhanDDS Dude, if we believed in everything we wanted to believe in, the world would be overrun by corrupt demagogues. We must use logic to temper our faith.
@exatlanti Ummm... I get the feeling you're kind of holistic, so I must tell you that unless you want to argue in a rational, logical way, I don't see a mutual benefit in our continued communication. If you do want to argue in this manner, let me know, for I have no qualms with being disproved and I relish the opportunity of debate. Also, I didn't completely understand your message, so I'd appreciate it if you rephrased it.
@threenumbnuts im not religious,but spiritual. i follow noone, except my soul and my way in this life. i try to recognize, which is my way. with love and respect to the people you can open many doors. we are a part/a piece of god.
the communication through youtube for a long time is nothing for me. 1) i must search for a message every time;2) my thoughts arent for everyone; just for the human, who wants to hear it.
@exatlanti If that's the way you feel, I'm cool with that. Still, you don't have to use comments to communicate through Youtube, you can use direct messages, and you can gain nothing by discussing with people who agree with you on every subject. Think about that.
no, we must use the love we are coming from. it is god, not the God. cause we cant remember, we dont know what we are(a pace of that love of the universe) and what we can, my dear...:-)
@RomulusAaron Um yeah, that's true: the only thing "forcing" me is critical thinking. Though in actually reading my comment it seems a pretty big leap to come to your conclusion. Not sure where I said (or even implied) that this was anything other than my own (albeit conflicted) choice.
I find this song almost unbearably beautiful. Even factoring in greats like Mozart & Debussy, I've never heard a piece of music that affects me more.
Also remarkable is McCreary's speed. The most amazing extra on the BSG DVDs is called "Evolution of a Cue" which shows his process, and you realize this was written on an insanely tight deadline. He's so gifted (and prolific!) it's hard to get my head around.
I've even made it my ringtone... which is the ONLY time I can hear it without crying.
Possible one of the best movements of the show. It plays throught the 4 seasons in different ways but you can always relate to the first time you heard it, in the opera house.
Actually a variation of this is played in one of the last pieces of the show "An Easterly View" which brings me to tears everytime I listen to it.
Might I suggest to you that instead of skimming through a first grade understanding of the world religions in an attempt to discredit them and elevate yourself, actually try to plumb the depths. You might actually be surprised at what you find. I would also use simple language in a youtube argument. Flowery vocabulary doesn't help much when your "ratiocination" is unoriginal and about as rational as a bag of hammers.

the best track he's ever written. The fact that everyone doesn't know who he is means he needs a new agent cause he should be a house-held name.

@brunskies92 i agree! BSG is the only thing i've heard him do but it's introduced me to a great composer for sure

@brunskies92 This song belongs up there with the classics of greats such as Bach and Mozart. I truly do believe that.

If to get to heaven you'd need to ride an elevator. That would be the song playing all they way.

One of my favourites, can't stop listening this song. I miss BSG so much

Possible one of the best movements of the show. It plays throught the 4 seasons in different ways but you can always relate to the first time you heard it, in the opera house.
Actually a variation of this is played in one of the last pieces of the show "An Easterly View" which brings me to tears everytime I listen to it.

Exactly the same here, the small piece that plays in the final episode just before the last scene really gets me.

One of the rare shows where the music is an important part of the story, making BSG a very long movie rather than "just" a TV show.
