Song Description
Inspired by the European Space Agency Rosetta mission to Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. One of the things the lander Philae sent back before going dark was an audio file of noises the comet makes. We just love the thought of the comet having a voice! The woodpecker sound on the recording is the comet's voice singing to us. Check out our video in which Hank plays the cello banjo and double bass and Jeff plays acoustic and electric guitars.

Lyrics
About the size of a desk or a little better
That you might sit at to write a love letter
Sent to a stranger, to an address unknown
Out to the edge of what is known
Earth to the universe, we wonder about you
Earth to the universe, do you wonder about us too?
Landing with a bounce behind a shadow long
Before going silent you sent us a song
A love letter sent, a journey survived
A message returned, love is alive
Earth to the universe, we wonder about you
Earth to the universe, do you wonder about us too?
