I have always considered Portal’s “Still Alive” the perfect theme song for science, but after listening to “Frozen“‘s “Let it Go”, that song fits pretty well, too.

A male cover by Caleb Hyles is here:
And a combination of both by Gabriel Kim here:
(ah, YouTube … don’t you just love the 21st century :-))
Someday I got to see that movie.
P.S.: If you want an example of how badly translations can screw the original meaning, check out the translations of this song. I found the French and Japanese version to hold … a different meaning. But then, I have to rely on the re-translation.
