Cosmos II

Ponderings about where the universe came from

#8 in Folk Rock

Blues song about the seemingly endless winter

#11 in Blues General

Analogy between the new year and a siren of ancient myth. As the new year begins, we are enticed by it. Although we may understand that our ship will eventually be wrecked, we can defer that until later, and we allow ourselves to be seduced.

#12 in Smooth Jazz

A hot song with a Latin beat about the jets of blazars, which are quasars whose jets have near-light flow speeds in a direction almost directly toward us, beaming their radiation into our line of sight. Many innuendos based on scientific terms.

#5 in General Latin

A semi-humorous song about Einstein's special relativity (travel near the speed of light) and general relativity (strong gravity). Written for science students but fun for all sentient beings in the cosmos!

#30 in Rock General

Song written for my cosmology class about supernovae, the deaths of massive stars that give life to us and other entities in the cosmos made out of elements heavier than helium

#5 in Alternative Metal

If we trash the Earth with global warming and deaths of species, there's no other hospitable place in the Solar System. Targeted to politicians who cater to businessmen whose only priority is short-term gain. A good song for Earth Day.

#14 in Acoustic Rock

In astronomical observations as well as the rest of life, Murphy's Law will prevail and things will go wrong. In that case, you're better off to throw out the bad data.

Blues Rock

Musings about the implications of an infinite universe or a multiverse that spawns an infinite number of parallel universes: there would be countless versions of each person, in every possible variation

#9 in Acoustic General

A punk-rock protest to the prospects of a deterministic universe in which we have no free will

#6 in Punk

This song about the mystery of time revolves around a pun between the usual meaning of 'timeless' as being eternal and 'timeless' as being out of time.

#7 in Acoustic Folk

Song composed for 3rd imaging workshop of the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration.

#17 in Indie Pop

A lively song about going through life haunted by the ghost of a past great love while in an unstable current relationship.

Acoustic General

Ode to Viagra, men's cure for one of the negative effects of aging

#11 in Pop Rock

Lively song about a lover that sends chills down your spine
