about

Neel wrote this song originally for children, but the adults seems to love it just as much. It tells the story of the universe from Aum to us. We are all made from the same stardust.

lyrics

First there was the sound
First there was the sound, Aum

The universe was made from that sound
With billions of galaxies spiraling around
All the galaxies are made of stars
In the night sky we can see them from afar
Around our star, the sun
Is the solar system, all the planets spinning in eternal rhythm
On our planet, mother Earth
You find all of us
We're all made from the same stardust
