From the recording Songs From the Science Frontier
When I perform this song live, I sing it a cappella. I have the audience stand up and become a wind farm. Each new line has its own motion. A video that shows you the motions is included if you purchase a download of the whole CD, or you can search for it on YouTube.
Lyrics
This is the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is electricity flowing from the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the light from the lamp I lit
with electricity flowing from the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the book I'm reading in the light from the lamp I lit
with electricity flowing from the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
What is the title of the book I'm reading in the light from the lamp I lit
with electricity flowing from the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth?
This is the Sun Shining Down on Earth
is the title of the book I'm reading in the light from the lamp I lit
with electricity flowing from the generator running on the rotor spinning in the wind
blowing in beneath the air rising up through the warmth of the sun shining down on Earth.
This is the sun shining down, shining down on Earth.
This is the sun shining down on Earth.
Wind energy, wind energy!
Capture the wind! Wind energy!
