Description
To illustrate part of what I talked about with Gio in the interview he posted, here is a song from one of my youth musicals, To Save The Planet. The singers are members of my theatre troupe, all youths. We performed this show 240 times, toured 3 countries, and had a blast. There is narration over the instrumental intro before the singing comes in, but I dropped that part out. The piccolo is Proteus II. Copyright 1992. Featuring lead vocalist Emily Rohm, age 11.

Lyrics
This is our home,
our refuge we must never disown.
Without her we are all alone.
There is no other.
There's no other mother but Earth;
from her bounty comes life and birth.
Can we deprive land and sea of what they need to thrive?
If we do, how can they survive?
Can we revive what's been lost?
Can we keep it alive?
If we don't, how can we survive?
I hear the calling; it is time to save the planet.
There's no more stalling; it's our home we must defend.
Our generation must come forth and save the planet.
The night is falling and our time is at an end.
What happens next?
Do we go on unchecked, in neglect?
Or do we gain a new respect?
We can protect our sweet Earth.
We can interconnect,
as we learn all that we affect.
Hear the hushed voice of the Earth
singing songs of rebirth.
She is asking: What life is worth?
Do we belong?
Can we learn a new tongue, old and young?
To be strong, we must sing along.
(Repeat Chorus)
our refuge we must never disown.
Without her we are all alone.
There is no other.
There's no other mother but Earth;
from her bounty comes life and birth.
Can we deprive land and sea of what they need to thrive?
If we do, how can they survive?
Can we revive what's been lost?
Can we keep it alive?
If we don't, how can we survive?
I hear the calling; it is time to save the planet.
There's no more stalling; it's our home we must defend.
Our generation must come forth and save the planet.
The night is falling and our time is at an end.
What happens next?
Do we go on unchecked, in neglect?
Or do we gain a new respect?
We can protect our sweet Earth.
We can interconnect,
as we learn all that we affect.
Hear the hushed voice of the Earth
singing songs of rebirth.
She is asking: What life is worth?
Do we belong?
Can we learn a new tongue, old and young?
To be strong, we must sing along.
(Repeat Chorus)
