What we like
- The song speaks of a long cold lonely winter and how the sun is coming to make it alright. This can be taken literally on the change of the seasons. What we like is that you can also apply this to life itself. You can always look forward to a change of a new day with the coming of the warm sun
Mind experience
- The Voyager program launched two unmanned space missions, the probes Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 which were to study the planetary system but continued on. Part of the program was to also place in the probes The Voyager Golden Record. This record had sounds and images of representations of life on earth. This was in the endeavour to communicate to advance extra-terrestrial life. Here Comes the Sun was chosen to be one of the recordings however did not make it due to legal complications
