Phil Fearon

Phil Fearon (born 30 July 1956) is an English record producer. He was the lead singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist for the 1980s band Galaxy.

Career

Fearon was born in Jamaica in 1956, but moved to London with his parents at the age of five. After running a reggae sound system, he joined Hott Wax (which evolved into Brit funk pioneers Hi-Tension after he left) and in the late 1970s was a mainstay of hit group Kandidate which scored a number 11 chart hit in 1979 with "I Don't Wanna Lose You". He set up a studio in his north London house and initially recorded with the group Proton on Champagne Records. Fearon’s first recording as Galaxy (with assistance from singers Julie and Dorothy) was "Head Over Heels" on Ensign Records in 1982, which became a club hit. The first success came with the Top 5 hit "Dancing Tight" in 1983 and over the next 15 months they chalked up a further four UK Top 40 singles including the Top 10s "What Do I Do" and "Everybody’s Laughing". Their radio-friendly pop/soul debut album, Phil Fearon & Galaxy also made the Top 10 in 1984. After a quiet period, Fearon returned to the Top 10 for the last time with a revival of Tony Etoria’s "I Can Prove It" in 1986 (also a minor US R&B hit). He continued to run a production company from his home making commercial dance records.

Galaxy (spacecraft)

Galaxy (previously Guardian) is a canceled prototype space habitat designed by the American firm Bigelow Aerospace, and was intended to be the third spacecraft launched by the company in their efforts to create a commercial space station. Like other modules made by Bigelow Aerospace, Galaxy is based on the inflatable TransHab design by NASA, and was to be used for advanced systems testing before the company launched human-rated vehicles.

Spacecraft history

Galaxy started life as twin spacecraft named Guardian which would have acted as 45% scale intermediates between the one-third size Genesis I & Genesis II pathfinders and the full size BA 330 man-rated module. Sometime after 2004, the two Guardian flights were split into the Galaxy module and larger Sundancer module, each testing progressively advanced systems. This Galaxy had twice the interior volume of the Genesis craft: 23.0 cubic meters (812.2 cu ft). In 2007, the parameters for Galaxy were again modified, with final specifications being for a spacecraft 4.0 meters (13.1 ft) in length, 3.3 meters (10.8 ft) in diameter and with 16.7 cubic meters (589.8 cu ft) of interior volume—45% greater than the Genesis modules. It was intended for launch in late 2008.

Six Flags Magic Mountain

Six Flags Magic Mountain is a 262-acre (1.06 km²) theme park located in the Valencia neighborhood of Santa Clarita, California, north of Los Angeles. It opened on May 30, 1971, as Magic Mountain, a development of the Newhall Land and Farming Company. In 1979, Six Flags purchased the park and added the name "Six Flags" to the park's title.

With 19 roller coasters, Six Flags Magic Mountain holds the world record for most roller coasters in an amusement park. In 2013, the park had an estimated 2.9 million visitors ranking it fifth in attendance among seasonal amusement parks in North America.

History

When the park opened, there were 500 employees and 33 attractions, many of which were designed and built by Arrow Development Co. which designed and built many of the original attractions at Disneyland. The admission price in 1971 was $5 for adults, and $3.50 for children between the ages of 3 and 12. Because the park was in a relatively remote part of Los Angeles County, the Greyhound bus line provided bus service to and from the park and Los Angeles, as well as from Northern California, and optionally allowed purchase of park admission at the time the bus ticket is purchased.

Galaxy

by: Jason Mraz

Well here I am, I'm sitting alone again
I'm staring up at the sky
Which at this lonely moment is my only friend
And suddenly as I gazed upon the night
Well I notice the stars
They began to shake and dance and burst
And fall into the darkness
They exploded down, I knew what I had to do
I ran up to the top of the hill
And I took a hold for you
You were the sweetest star that fell
And yes, I held onto it close to the numbness in my heart
And then I kissed a star, yes I did
I wrapped it up inside of a golden bow
And then I ran away just to find you
'Cause this was your gift, your gift, oh shit
A star that I kissed
Oh the galaxy that lives inside your eyes
Was in need, I said it was in need
Of a, of a brand new shining light
I said I wished to the dark sky above
That all I had was to be captured
And willingly turned over to you
I know you better now and at this I smile
I simply gave to you the symbol of what you are to me
You are the star that shines
And explodes with light and I love and embrace
Love and embrace all that I can
You better take this blindness and stay away from me
And let me bask inside of your golden seam
I never knew such simple astronomy
I never knew it could come to me and not by the ways of the heart
And call on me to be one of those strangely dressed wise men
Who follow the stars to their love
You are such a perfect star to wish upon
Well I love you and God and I'm hopeful
Of what this lonely night may lead me to
So I said god I'm hopeful
Of what this lonely, lonely night
Will lead me tonight
Oh well, well I'm hopeful that this lonely night
Well it shines so right, I'm hopeful
I'm hopeful of all good things to come about
I'm wishing upon you now, yeah, I'm wishing upon you now
Free me and let me indulge my view
Oh, most beautiful you keeper of starlight
Take on me, oh, oh, oh well here I am
I'm sitting all by myself again
I stare up at the sky
Which at this moment is my only friend
Say well, suddenly as I gazed upon the night
Well I notice the stars
They began to shake and burst
Oh, it looks like they want to fight, no
They were dancing, they were romancing
Oh, they were falling in love
They falling in love all over
Falling in love all over
Falling in love, falling in love, falling in love
I say falling in love, falling in love all over
Falling in love, is my best friend
