I've just downloaded the teaser for Enterprise from StarTrek.com and was wondering about the music. It doesn't sound like Trek music at all. But I like it. Does anybody know whether it was especially composed for the teaser or whether it's a song that's available somewhere? Or could this even be the title song?
And another thought: I also downloaded the pics of the engineering set. Honestly, as much as I disliked everything that I had heard about the new series before, I really love that set. If the rest is just as good then I'm definitely looking forward to seeing Enterprise.

No, that's not original music, and it isn't the series theme, either. It's a pop-rock tune by a relatively new band known as The Calling. The rest of the song essentailly sounds like any song by Creed. It plays on local radio about fifteen times an hour... I liked it when I heard it on the preview, but now it's starting to get on my nerves.
Regarding the series' actual music, it's going to be "hip," according to Rick Berman, who also said, "it's not like we're going to use electric guitars." Dennis McCarthy, who composed the Deep Space Nine theme and lots of episodal music from the last three series' is doing the score for "Broken Bow," but it's still up in the air regarding who will do the main theme. All this tells us is that they're apparently still using an orchestral sound, but probably more modern beats.

Yep, could be nice. Oh and I will try to download the song - here in Germany it hasn't been played on any radio station in my region - so I'm definitely far from being fed up by it.

Oh and is the band known as "The Calling" or the song? Is the song title "Wherever you will go" by any chance?

IBYAP (I beg you a pardon). Wes, what does lmao stand for? I live in Bavaria and I know a Bavarian derogatory term that exactly matches these letters, though I'm most sure that you wouldn't know or mean that.

Ok, I don't wanna see anyone's asses on the first season just for ratings now. Then again the younger guys look cute and in shape... But I can see Berman's strategy for making Trek in tune with a new audience. I'm just a bit worried that he could drive away the current fan base if he tries to cater to the new ones. We'll see...

If it were "LMAA", I'd know what it was. But I'm not sure what German phrase matches "LMAO", unless it's the same thing, but w/ a different word in the last place...

And you're asking what LMAO means? Are we reading the book of "internet anacronyms" backwards?
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
