This song holds so many happy memories of my mum, who passed away in '09, we watch Star Trek Enterprise religiously. Me and her always sang along to the theme. Makes me smile when I hear this song again.
I love this song, someone like me who strugled socially thru school, and after finally at 36 graduated school a yr ago, and have a career where can make enough to live, not just survive
I remember when, "Enterprise," debuted. Some fans and critics really put this song down. I think this song is great and was perfect for the early beginning of the Federation and Star Fleet. They also put the series down. Yes it had a few non-popular episodes, every series has that, but I think some Star Trek fans and critics didn't give the series the credit it deserved. If it had been on 3 more years we would have seen the start of the Earth-Romulan war and the series would have even answered some of the questions and plots that were in TOS Star Trek, Star Trek movies 1-6 and possibly Star Trek TNG. I have no doubt a Q and Sarek would have been in it. Maybe even a very young Spock or even the 200 year old Spock talking about the early Fedration. The Star Trek reboot that started in 2009 was fair but they shouldn't have made reboot movies about Kirk, Spock, and the rest of the crew and good old NCC-1701. I think a new movie series set in the 25th or even the 31st century would have been better.
+nythawk night Right on. Young Sarek definitely would have been good to see (maybe an encounter with Archer caused him to become curious about humanity and it progressed from there.) but I don't think adding Q would do much really. Plus we would have seen the Ferasan/Kzinti appear, maybe that could have tied in to the Earth-Romulus war in some way. Either way, to quote Dr Crusher "She went before her time."
+Sephirothwolf The Kzinti were not originally in Star trek. I believe they first appeared in the mid sixties in stories by Larry Niven. One Specific Kzini called "Speaker to Animal" appeared in Niven's "Ringworld" books. Since then, Many authors have included them in their stories, with Niven's permission.
Yes and Larry Niven was asked by DC Fontana to write an episode of TAS and adapted one of his previous stories featuring the Kzinti into 'The Slaver Weapon'. The Ferasan are the "Nacdonalds"/"Starschmucks coffee" renaming of them, If you don't believe me about them planned to be showing up in Enterprise Season 5 then Memory Alpha it.
I grew up with domestic violence. Doctor's said I had PTSD from it and it drove me to drinking alcohol from the age of 20 up until recently. So pretty much drank for about 12 years but I decided to voluntarily check myself into a rehab center 9-4 every day to help me stop drinking. I didn't want to end up being like my father, I wanted to break the cycle. I graduated yesterday and I've been sober for 3 months and I've met some of the most kindest, genuine, loving people that I have ever met in my life. People who love me and care about me, people who will be friends for the rest of my life. Going to University next week to pursue animation and game concept art because I've always been creative and artistic but the alcohol always stripped me of motivation and determination. This was my graduation song. Nobody there really knew it but I knew it so I sang it =D
This song and Elton John's The Trail We Blaze and The Measure Of A Man are enough to get my imagination flowing and more importantly bring some light into a darkened day :)
I sang this last year at my Mother's funeral. She had a very difficult upbringing - not the nicest family (and that's a kind way of saying it). It made me think of her being free her past, so I sang it. I miss her like mad, but she's with my Dad again. I received a number of compliments and questions about the song; I gave credit where credit was due. Thank you, Russell Watson for this guy. (Oh, and my Dad worked on Project Apollo. So there's a connection. :) ) I miss them both.
This song, is really nice. The second version for the last two seasons is better than the first IMHO. I have been watching the series for the second time now. It is fantastic in 4K UHD, I thought it was good the first time, but the second time through, it is even better. The tie ins to the original series are cool. You catch a lot more stuff the second time, too. The music opening the show makes a lot of sense, they picked a great song if they weren't going to go for the standard orchestral type soundtrack, again just my opinion.
Kind of reminds me of the pop song Joey Scarbury did, "Believe it or Not," the theme song to the superhero series, "The Greatest American Hero," in the early 80's. Some people and critics put the song down but I think that ones great too.
OMG I love this song and the show it goes to, which I am watching again, I really don;t see how long of people did not like Enterprise when it came out, I for one loved it and still do it show us just how much Starfleet when thought to get to where they were with Kirk and Spook, and I also love the characters in the show as well to name some, Captain Archer, Malcolm (who I did have a little crush on when it first came out lol), Phlox is one of my fav ST doctors part from Bones, But I really do love this show and also love the NX-01 Enterprise I love the shape of that ship I thought it was really nice and would like to see that type back again maybe and upgraded one =D
I am re-watching it. I am surprised to find that I have absolutely no memory of watching it the first time, so it's all new to me lol! It's all on Netflix.
I didn't understand this choice, and didn't like it when the series first aired, especially compared to all the other Star Trek theme songs. Now, however, watching the re-runs I think this is the perfect song for the series whose story line preceded the original Star Trek. I love, LOVE this song! It gets better every time I hear it!
Date: 12/5/2014 Time: 0705 Hours Eastern US. Time Zone Event: NASA's Orion capsule launches, orbits Earth, then lands in the Pacific Ocean at 0829 hours Pacific Standard Time. If there was ever an appropriate song to encapsulate the hope and daring that such an event entails, this is it. Carry us all in spirit with you on future journeys Orion capsules, and keep the very best humanity has to offer safe within your shell.

Much better than the Rod Stewart version, in my personal opinion. Shame it isn't available for viewing on mobiles, otherwise I'd have this playing constantly.
If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. Without a strong military we would not be where we are today. That being said, we do have things that we are blowing our money on that are a waste. The space program could be a great ambassador, bringing countries together, strengthening alliances and capturing the imaginations of millions.
We could have built a nuclear fusion reactor and a anti matter reactor with that money also. defense is only 600 billion a year would be better spent on space, improving education, infrastructure, new forms of energy, heck it would be a very long list of more productive things it could be spent on.
I would say antimatter propulsion could be an alternative for an Orion drive, radiation would be less and power more, however i think we would need a space based economy to do that, Fusion is also an alternative, it would take less time, or just fision, atomic bombs are a lot cleaner now. sadly we are isolasinist, we need to look oputward, not inward, we need to stand toghether, not as nations, but as people. we most live united, or die apart. we will die on one world, or die on many worlds.
@TheDaywalker1701 -- We shouldn't have done Shuttle at all. It was a waste of money. The Saturn V could have hefted a station bigger than the ISS into orbit with just 4 launches. If we had spent money efficiently instead of on Shuttle (and stupid wars & crap) we could have had a fleet of space stations & orbital telescopes and could have gone back to the moon a dozen times over and been on our way to Mars by now.
:) i like you comment i mean you the first person who understand that all. Many people tells me,noob speak like this and 70% people says "NO FUTURE IN SPACE OR OTHER PLANETS"i mean they all says God invent Humanity and he creates Earth so Earth will stay forever with life. I mean,HELLO God creates the Earth and all on it,this is just like i were say"hey i go find end of the world" BTW i am a Kristian so i'm not Comu,... :) I like to talk so if u don't have any problem.

Captain's Log, Stardate; 2016.209. Two words, computer: FUCKING MEMORIES.
This song holds so many happy memories of my mum, who passed away in '09, we watch Star Trek Enterprise religiously. Me and her always sang along to the theme. Makes me smile when I hear this song again.
I love this song, someone like me who strugled socially thru school, and after finally at 36 graduated school a yr ago, and have a career where can make enough to live, not just survive
To me, it is the pictures that make the song palatable!

I fell in love with this song the second I heard it. And...of course...it's the theme song to one of my all time favorite television shows.
One of the songs that makes you really believe you can reach everything you want...
Yes you can ! Just believe in you !
This song and Elton John's The Trail We Blaze and The Measure Of A Man are enough to get my imagination flowing and more importantly bring some light into a darkened day :)

Meant to say thank you God for this guy. ::dopey me::
I didn't understand the critism with this song. Its awesome! Catchy tune and a great singer!
GREAT SONG!!!!
One of the few things I like about Star Trek: Enterprise is this song.
a freakin' great song... as blackmystix said, the song just makes me feel good. :)

Great theme, great show.
Despite being mostly a metal fan, and not liking the "Enterprise" series very much, I am totally in love with this song.
wow! what a song
my favourite out of the STAR TREK themes and the only one that's actually a pop song keep looking to the stars !!
Gives me the strength to persevere through anything
awesome!

Hey, we're called trekkers!

I was never a huge fan of Enterprise, but I loved the intro for it so much!
OMG I love this song and the show it goes to, which I am watching again,
I really don;t see how long of people did not like Enterprise when it came out, I for one loved it and still do
