How do music and science relate?

How does the lyric, "I be that man on the moon" relate to science?

  • Sophia A Your Question How does the lyric, "I be that man on the moon" reflect on science? I have a project for science, and we have to choose lyrics from songs, and reflect them on science and it's definition, my song is man on the moon by kid cudi, how could this relate to science, any part or lyric from the song works, thanks, please help!!!

  • Answer:

    It is, of course, a negative point of view. 'that' man is not a friendly way to talk about someone. But who is that man? It can be the legendary man on the moon. The moon is far away. A man living there would, most likely, feel bored and lonely. It can be also our public heroe: the first man on the moon or the dream of being that man. Still the word 'that'. So, bored by science and modernism, bored by futurism and publicity and still using modern technology to produce that song i.e. putting music to it shows a paradox. I be that man on the moon. 'I' and even realizing it. What is missing here is the word will. Science and pop music, a happy go lucky way of singing on one hand side, fatalism, carelessness and sarcasm on the other. How is that possible and what kind of attitude is that? The answer is will. Whose will, one's will, God's or a public will? There is no difference here: it is will and the singer doesnt mind to be that man either, but it is a dynamic ambivalent be. And that is, in fact, what science is an everwaving ocean, always falsificating it's self. Scientific, but not necessarily real, a moment, creation, music and art at the same time.
