Some say: "How degrading to think that we are just made of molecules in motion." I reply, "You Sir (it's usually a sir) have no idea how wonderful, beautiful and remarkable are the actions of molecules."
What is cringe science to you? Science is a study of the universe. I think I have an equation to put the theory of particles and the theory of gravity together.
Where was the science? These people don't follow it. The universe can't come about on its own and neither can life. They say complex chemical molecules came together to form life. We have zero evidence that it happened that way. It's NOT possible in any logical way. Life only comes from life.
@2fast2block we have plenty of evidence for it. We observe molecules form larger organic molecules naturally in the lab. More importantly, we have no evidence to the contrary, which is that life came from some other source. So naturally, our best guess is the one with the most evidence and the one that can be tested and observed. That's the science way, that's the logic way.
How do you know that living organisms die/can die? If there is an evolutionary line of 3.5 billlion years behind your evolutionary history, then that means that it can continue for another 3.5 billion years.
There is no secret that life can't come about on its own, just as the universe can't come about on its own. These people don't follow science. There is NO science to support those.
I tear up with every song of this series. They sum up the awe and inspiration that our world makes me feel, and we can know thanks to science. I am so grateful for all of these people that helped us common folk understand, and share a glimpse of all this beauty.
I have watched so may of these videos, and they make me tear up. Not in a bad way. The fact that we are unraveling some of the "secrets' of life is astounding.! I cry, for joy; happy, and lifted up" because, finally, we, as humans, are beginning to understand just how and why things are. I was raised a fundamentalist Christian.... but it didn't take :D Beginning to understand the the "real world" held so much more promise than any dogma could have ever done. I think I also weep for those who cannot "see" the the natural wonders of life here on Earth, and the "spectacularity" of the known Universe. The search to find the answers of what we don't know enlivens me more than seeking the sameness of religion ever could. It is the ability to to wonder, to ask questions, and look beyond what we now can "see" that lifts us towards higher understanding.Religion gives answers with no proof. Science gives answers, based on evidence, and takes the chance at asking for other answers based on what we already know. The world, and the Universe are wonderful, awesome, scary, and enlightening, and danger sous places! Humans cannot help but explore. What a journey we have before us! I wish i could live long enough to visit those frontiers :)
8 years later, 0:54 is still one of my favorite things ever. The way the phrase resolves and the tuning of Attenborough is one of the most chilling yet uplifting moments and I think about it a lot.
Does it gives you chills that our universe and life can't come about on their own? That's what these people believe though, that they came about on their own with ZERO evidence it could have happened. Just saying complex chemical molecules came together to form life is just a simple statement not based on any evidence. Life only comes from life.
I personally prefer how he puts it in his book. "For unknown ages after the explosive outpouring of matter and energy of the Big Bang, the Cosmos was without form. There were no galaxies, no planets, no life. Deep, impenetrable darkness was everywhere, hydrogen atoms in the void. Here and there denser accumulations of gas were imperceptibly growing, globes of matter were condensing - hydrogen raindrops more massive than suns. Within these globes of gas was first kindled the nuclear fire latent in matter. A first generation of stars was born, flooding the Cosmos with light. There were in those times not yet any planets to receive the light, no living creatures to admire the radiance of the heavens. Deep in the stellar furnaces the alchemy of nuclear fusion created heavy elements, the ashes of hydrogen burning, the atomic building materials of future planets and lifeforms. Massive stars soon exhausted their stores of nuclear fuel. Rocked by colossal explosions, they returned most of their substance back into the thin gas from which they had once condensed. Here in the dark lush clouds between the stars, new raindrops made of many elements were forming, later generations of stars being born. Nearby, smaller raindrops grew, bodies far too little to ignite the nuclear fire, droplets in the interstellar mist on their way to form the planets. Among them was a small world of stone and iron, the early Earth. Congealing and warming, the Earth released the methane, ammonia, water and hydrogen gases that had been trapped within, forming the primitive atmosphere and the first oceans. Starlight from the Sun bathed and warmed the primeval Earth, drove storms, generated lightning and thunder. Volcanoes overflowed with lava. These processes disrupted molecules of the primitive atmosphere; the fragments fell back together again into more and more complex forms, which dissolved in the early oceans. After a time the seas achieved the consistency of a warm, dilute soup. Molecules were organized, and complex chemical reactions driven, on the surface of clays. And one day a molecule arose that quite by accident was able to make crude copies of itself out of the other molecules in the broth. As time passed, more elaborate and more accurate self-replicating molecules arose. Those combinations best suited to further replication were favored by the sieve of natural selection. Those that copied better produced more copies. And the primitive oceanic broth gradually grew thin as it was consumed by and transformed into complex condensations of self-replicating organic molecules. Gradually, imperceptibly, life had begun. Single-celled plants evolved, and life began to generate its own food. Photosynthesis transformed the atmosphere. Sex was invented. Once free-living forms banded together to make a complex cell with specialized functions. Chemical receptors evolved, and the Cosmos could taste and smell. One-celled organisms evolved into multicellular colonies, elaborating their various parts into specialized organ systems. Eyes and ears evolved, and now the Cosmos could see and hear. Plants and animals discovered that the land could support life. Organisms buzzed, crawled, scuttled, lumbered, glided, flapped, shimmied, climbed and soared. Colossal beasts thundered through the steaming jungles. Small creatures emerged, born live instead of in hard-shelled containers, with a fluid like the early oceans coursing through their veins. They survived by swiftness and cunning. And then, only a moment ago, some small arboreal animals scampered down from the trees. They became upright and taught themselves the use of tools, domesticated other animals, plants and fire, and devised language. The ash of stellar alchemy was now emerging into consciousness. At an ever-accelerating pace, it invented writing, cities, art and science, and sent spaceships to the planets and the stars. These are some of the things that hydrogen atoms do, given fifteen billion years of cosmic evolution."
Neil makes dozens of references to Carl and the first Cosmos ... his first episode was almost entirely a tribute to his mentor and hero..... Love them both
I noticed your music about 13 years ago but I was in a bubble becauce of age. Your latest videos just happened to strike me in my heart and I scrolled down, just to see what else you had done. Thats when I realised you made that pale blue dot song that I have save on my computer, Melody sheep for World president :)
Oh my....this brought a tear in my eye...I first found your symphony of science several years ago as a teenager, I remember how it affected me, I sat in this one park under a birch tree listening to these on my mp3 player, I remember being moved to the brink of crying and being just filled with so much emotion, pure awe, and now, years later I still get moved by watching and listening these, you have managed to create something truly wonderfull here and I just wanted to say that I appreciate it very much, thank you from the bottom of my heart dear fellow being!😊👌👏
I'm back, it's been a while, my kids are computer programmers, and engineers, largely due to us all watching these science music videos all those years ago...Thanks.
I reckon we're going to have to get Benedict Cumberbatch to take the role of documentary narrator, for England at least. Not sure who would do the American ones....
God i love David Attenborough! He is an amazing man, with a fantastic sense of humour. I am so glad that he is incorporated in at least one of these videos...
We have indeed inherited the power to chose the future of this planet, and all life on it. We're a young species, but I believe we've show we can make the correct decisions when the fate of the planet is on the line. We did sixty years ago when we sidestepped total anihilation made possible by the proliferation of nuclear weapons, and we have continued to do so for the sixty years it took to get from then to now.
This is the symphony of science that makes me cry the most....and Im a grown man.....but its just so beautiful and amazing to think how far and how fast we have evolved.....
Carl Sagan is such an amazing man, i wish nothing more than to explore the cosmos with him upon his spacecraft of the imagination. As light as a dandelion seed.
Man, your work is so wonderful. The music is impeccable and you are a very brilliant person. How I enjoy all your videos. Tank you so much. Kind Regards. 😭💫👀👂🤩😍😍💫🤴🏻🤩❤
Carl's chorous astounded me. Its difficult to synthesize that kind of melody, but then I rememered how Carl spoke it on cosmos; cosmos, like the rest of carl's work is completely immersed in a poetic eloquence which I have yet to find else where.
It is the first time science has sharpened its voice to teach us. I do not know how they do it, but they have reached the correct grades. ;) Great job!
Imagine the look of wonder & amazement in children's eyes, if they were to include these creative, fascinating videos on the fundamental elements of life in the elementary school curriculum. Talk about a captivated audience! Children learn a lot more when the subject piques their curiosity & retains their interest. These Melody Sheep videos would be an excellent tool for teachers. This style of teaching could revolutionize the entire educational system. If they'd had these in school when I was a child, I would paid a lot more attention & actually enjoyed more of the mandatory subjects.
probably one of the most outside the box, simple yet intelligent comments on here. A brilliant point and question, which i believe will lead science and the conscious/awareness to a unifying point somewhere in the future.
Concerning this video... 99% of commentators - pushing some sort of agenda on religion/anti-religion 1% of commentators - genuinely love this music and the video Actually proud to be in the 1 percent :D
Evolution is like a classical comedy. It's all about society over the individual, it greatly expresses the role of females, and what better way to celebrate life than through food and sex? Plus the old equation, time + tragedy = comedy, really fits evolution because by doing away with certain individuals, other groups can grow from the experience, whether the growth is good or bad.
We agree with everything, so you'll agree with me that, "scientist used to think the earth was flat," the first statement I replyed to, is wrong. It is rare to run across an informed, intelligent person on youtube, and it's nice talking with you, too.
Every school kid should see this as much as they'd like but no less than beginning in what, first grade? Beautiful science beautifully taught. Thanks for posting this exquisite visit with these geniuses. Yes, "wuzzier all the time". Peace! for the children... up to us.
I love these things! I'm participating in a thing called "science night" where we, the high schoolers, teach the younger kids about the cool things in science. I'm downloading these videos and putting them up on the projector so that the kids can see these
@Masfemneunouns When standing before the great beauty of the universe and hearing the grandest concepts made understandable to all, only a creature with a heart of stone would stand unmoved. Carl you are missed by all.
Some say: "How degrading to think that we are just made of molecules in motion."
I reply, "You Sir (it's usually a sir) have no idea how wonderful, beautiful and remarkable are the actions of molecules."
skepticalJones82 That’s because they’re ignorant as fuck and they don’t see beauty on some of the most simple things.
A molecule is a combination of elements. I can name about 20-30 molecules but I forgot them and their names
@@nikitagloukhovtchenko6857 No shit

I don't think anyone has ever combined music and science as beautifully as Melodysheep.Thank you for the inspiration!
there's also Symphony of Science
What is cringe science to you? Science is a study of the universe. I think I have an equation to put the theory of particles and the theory of gravity together.

"The secrets of evolution are time and death. There's an unbroken thread that stretches from those first cells to us."
Carl Sagan
very powerful
How do you know that living organisms die/can die? If there is an evolutionary line of 3.5 billlion years behind your evolutionary history, then that means that it can continue for another 3.5 billion years.
What’s time and what is death?
How do you determine that living organisms die?
Evolution is what? How do you know that evolution is only there but no devolution of species occurs?
There is no secret that life can't come about on its own, just as the universe can't come about on its own. These people don't follow science. There is NO science to support those.
"Every cell is a triumph of natural selection" "we're made of trillions of cells, within us is a little universe" holy shit!!

Thank god I'm not the only one crying!
Heheh, you're not alone, I've cried in some Cosmos episodes, it's... fantastic.
Same here 🤣
We are all connected. 💜🙌
8 years later, 0:54 is still one of my favorite things ever. The way the phrase resolves and the tuning of Attenborough is one of the most chilling yet uplifting moments and I think about it a lot.
"Our planet,the Earth,is as far as we know,unique in the Universe...it contains life"
Give me chills every goddam time
Does it gives you chills that our universe and life can't come about on their own? That's what these people believe though, that they came about on their own with ZERO evidence it could have happened. Just saying complex chemical molecules came together to form life is just a simple statement not based on any evidence. Life only comes from life.
Every single time. Ten years on it makes me cry that the people who are in charge of everything don't care about this planet.
the second episode of the cosmos reboot is called "some of the things that molecules do"
realised the reference immediately thanks to this.
I personally prefer how he puts it in his book.
"For unknown ages after the explosive outpouring of matter and energy of the Big Bang, the Cosmos was without form. There were no galaxies, no planets, no life.

Amelia Hartman 13.7 billion years
Dylan Jones ...do you really think you accomplished anything with that reply?
I Saw you in videos of high stleth dishonored and science videos
And this is why I am a biologist! Nature is a wonderful, complex, bewildering and magnificent construct.
we need to look after it!
Didn't realize this was produced 13 years ago as I watch on January 7, 2023 it is very much alive.
10+ years on and this still calms and gives me chills. Thanks!
"we are each of us, a multitude." This brings me more deep meaning and satisfaction than any god.
Yes, that's satisfying
That and "it´s continued survival, now rest in our hands" is pretty powerful.
Sir Attenbourough, you have been the anchor of all intelligent discourse regarding this subject. thank you.
Sir Attenborough is a great teacher.... When he speaks you are immersed in his knowledge.... A wonderful gem to treasure!!! :)
This is the only song from Symphony of Science that makes me cry of happiness because it makes me appreciate nature.
"Those are some of the things that molecules do
Given four billions years of evolution"
M favourite part, I just like the way it sounds.
symphony of science is the soundtrack to my life. they will be lullabies to my children :)
The thing I am thinking of...
Reneevee133 that is probably my favourite RUclips comment of all time :)
Reneevee133 I'm living that reality right now, and my children love it :)
"there's an unbroken thread that connects us..." all the quotes from sagan in NDT's Cosmos reboot, I love it.

It gets wuzzier all the time- Jane Goodalln
2:39: "Wuzzy" is a technical term. Jane Goodall says so.
lmao "wuzzy" coincidentally i was just getting to that part of the song when i saw your comment.
I love scientific terminology, albeit wuzzy at times
I'm back, it's been a while, my kids are computer programmers, and engineers, largely due to us all watching these science music videos all those years ago...Thanks.
Get Goosebumps every time I hear this, truly amazing.
Of all the Symphony of Science videos, I think this is still my all-time favorite.
It's my GOAT. It's so great.
I have to cry every time I see these videos. Thanks Melodysheep. ♥️
I found this bizarrely thrilling and motivating. I feel at peace thinking of this stuff. Trippy.
One of my biggest concerns is who we're going to turn to for nature documentary narration when Sir David Attenborough passes away...
We still have Morgan Freeman... He's getting old too, so we need someone to take over from him too.
I reckon we're going to have to get Benedict Cumberbatch to take the role of documentary narrator, for England at least. Not sure who would do the American ones....
Steve Blum!
Imagine how he'll sound with age
Don't worry, he's immortal.
Brain Cox, Neil Tyson, Dawkins.
the first time i ever saw this I got goosebumps. the diversity of life is so beautiful. #carlsagan is a revolutionary
I've stumbled upon this channel just today.
Imagine my joy as I'm binge watching all these videos for the very first time :D
Just found this... How fabulous!! Thankyou!!!! Absolutely wonderful!
This is my favorite in the series of songs. The wuzzy line part is so cute.
Carl Sagan "Within us There is a Little Universe " We are each of us a Multitude " .
This is the most beautiful Symphony of science song
Still love this after all these years ❤
People should start watching this instead of going to church every sunday, to caught up in selfishness and making money.
I suggest Carl Sagan's book Cosmos. I bought it a few days ago. Has to be one of the most amazing books I've ever read.
This is now firmly my favourite
Totes my dude
Omg same
The nostalgia!! I remember when my 7th grade biology teacher showed this to our class
I noticed Sagan sounds like Kermit the Frog when autotuned. I can't unsee it, so I'm going to inflict that vision on all of you.
I've only seen Dutch Sesame Street, so I can't make that associaton ;)
Edit: because I am not familiar English Kermit's voice ^^
" Molecules are, our Rainbow Connection, the lovers, the dreamers and Me."
Oh VERY True... xD
God i love David Attenborough! He is an amazing man, with a fantastic sense of humour. I am so glad that he is incorporated in at least one of these videos...
I always hug my cats after this one. Classic.

Your faith in humanity is inspiring
Well if you ask Chomsky our adoption of neoliberalism as an ideology has set us back tremendously on that front.
This is the symphony of science that makes me cry the most....and Im a grown man.....but its just so beautiful and amazing to think how far and how fast we have evolved.....
I am who I am, thanks to #carlsagan
Our world is what it is thanks to that beautiful man! #thankyoucarlsagan!
I love your channel and I decided to start making educational videos much like yours on my channel too! Thanks for the inspiration!
Carl Sagan is such an amazing man, i wish nothing more than to explore the cosmos with him upon his spacecraft of the imagination. As light as a dandelion seed.
Lol he started there and now he is doing "Life Beyond"
Insane
That is amazing.
yea ikr i cant stop clicking on his videos i just love them so much.
we are each of us a multitude. beautiful
Was feeling down. As down as a man can be. So I wanted to hear this with their voices.
♡ s i g h
Ah yes, my favorite genre of music: Sciencewave.
Man, your work is so wonderful. The music is impeccable and you are a very brilliant person. How I enjoy all your videos. Tank you so much. Kind Regards. 😭💫👀👂🤩😍😍💫🤴🏻🤩❤
My 3 favorite people of all time! I named my dog Jane, and want to name my son Sagan Attenborough :)
Cool.
I think wuzzier is the technical term, lol. Reminds me of wibbly wobbly timey wimey
Indeed. We need more widdle wuddle terms, I say.
I do remember hearing about the basis of the Wuzzy characteristic, particularly when being attributed to the similarities of living things.
fuzzy wuzzy
I UNDERSTOOD THAT REFERENCE!! GIVE ME A HUG!!!!
alex39977 wuz a bear.
Ah the irony... 'Chakra Healing' advertising scrolling over Carl's face...
And thank you so much for this series - I love them all.
Came him because of Comos, stayed for Carl Sagan.
Everybody wants a slice of Sagan, so I try to cut the slices evenly but some people just get more and others get less.
If you want to make a Sagan pie, you must first invent Carl Sagan.
Do you mean “here” instead of “him”.
it's continued survival.. rest in our hands
Carl's chorous astounded me. Its difficult to synthesize that kind of melody, but then I rememered how Carl spoke it on cosmos; cosmos, like the rest of carl's work is completely immersed in a poetic eloquence which I have yet to find else where.

anyone else hearing Kermit the Frog singing on this? especially around 2:17. HAHAHHA
Omg omg I found you in the comments holy shit. I didn't hear Kermit but now I wish I did.
It is the first time science has sharpened its voice to teach us. I do not know how they do it, but they have reached the correct grades. ;) Great job!
Caaaaaaaaaarl, that Enlightens people :D

Children learn a lot more when the subject piques their curiosity & retains their interest. These Melody Sheep videos would be an excellent tool for teachers. This style of teaching could revolutionize the entire educational system.
If they'd had these in school when I was a child, I would paid a lot more attention & actually enjoyed more of the mandatory subjects.
Is it just me, or does Carl Sagan sound like Kermit the Frog a bit?
Carl Edward Sagan I mean the white guy, agent smith.
इतना पुराना विडियो 😄😄😄😄
probably one of the most outside the box, simple yet intelligent comments on here. A brilliant point and question, which i believe will lead science and the conscious/awareness to a unifying point somewhere in the future.
science is a spiritual experience..
no
172 Creationists disliked video
11,000 scientists named Steve liked this video. (well okay closer to 1335...)
Just when I thought David Attenborough's voice couldn't get any better.....
It's a very wuzzy line and it's getting wuzzier all the tiiiime chooon
Who made this has 46 chromosomes
What a beautiful science class! Thank you ! 💚💙💚💙
I could watch SoS videos over and over again all day long!
Oh Karl.....bittersweet tears. Where ever you are out there'd....rest easy.
Concerning this video...
99% of commentators - pushing some sort of agenda on religion/anti-religion
1% of commentators - genuinely love this music and the video
Actually proud to be in the 1 percent :D

God, I wish Uncle Carl was still alive to see these. I'll bet he never knew he was a musician as well as a brilliant teacher of science. :)
Not all ideas are created equally. Respect is not deserved but earned. Some ideas and people are worth criticizing.
I watch these videos and cry...all the time. No shame.
Those arguments have come, have gone, and have come agian more than a few times over.
Still a jam, I appreciate this work a lot, thanks!
Amazing Thanks
this song kicks ass great job!
If I was a science teacher, which maybe I will be someday when I'm older, I'd show all these Symphony of Science videos to all my students!
