if you think about it... wish you were here would be a great choice because the situation you described shows the absence of just about everything and wish you were here will some up how we would long for everything to come back. just a thought.

One of the most beautiful Prog songs ever:

And you and I - Yes

One of my favorite songs by yes, and in prog.

let's just say it makes my top 10 list.

i chose it (wish you were here) not because of the one title line, its a moving piece of music, it showed the fears and sadnesses of mankind as well as the brillance that is showcased in the music.

although i guess i agree with whoever said something about mozart and whatnot, i think that musically, they are far better than anything else and, i doubt aliens could understand what we  were saying so the music is all they could hear

^ that's exactly why I thought Holtz was a great suggestion. Instrumentals might be a better choice to overcome the language issue.

I suppose one could argue that any entity that could figure out how to power up and play a CD (or whatever) could probably work out the language sooner or later...but just imagine someone having only Jon Anderson's lyrics for their Rosetta Stone

It would certainly give a pleasant impression of what humanity was like. I wouldn't mind being remembered (however mistakenly) that way.

We listened to that one at the stroke of midnight Dec 31st 1999..........great song; all together now:

"LEONARD BERNSTEIN"

Which buffoonery brings me to one of the only pieces of music I would consider saving....... Rhapsody In Blue

Having just music really wouldn't be representation of our culture tho.  Our language, the tones of our voices... this is a lot more personal than the sounds coming from instruments... so I don't agree on instrumental music, no matter who's playing it.
