Discovery (Daft Punk album)
Discovery is the second studio album by French house duo Daft Punk, released on 3 March 2001, by Virgin Records. It marks a shift in the sound from Chicago house, which they were previously known for, to disco, post-disco,garage house, and synthpop-inspired house. The album later became the soundtrack of the anime film Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem, which was a collaboration between Daft Punk, Leiji Matsumoto, and Toei Animation. All of the music videos for the tracks on the album are segments of the film, which follows a story of a kidnapped extraterrestrial band.
Discovery is recognized as a concept album in reviews by New Musical Express and Spin magazines. Early versions of the album included a "Daft Club" membership card. The card included a code which granted access to an online music service, which featured tracks later released on the album of the same name and Alive 1997.
Background
According to an interview with Remix Magazine Online, Thomas Bangalter stated:
Voyager (novel)
Voyager is the third book in the Outlander series of novels by Diana Gabaldon. Centered on time travelling 20th-century nurse Claire Randall and her 18th-century Scottish Highland warrior husband Jamie Fraser, the books contain elements of historical fiction, romance, adventure and science fiction/fantasy.
The heroine of the bestselling Outlander, Claire, returns in Voyager as a mother to Brianna Randall and living in Boston in the year 1968. The preceding novel, Dragonfly in Amber, ended with Claire and Brianna coming to grips with the truth of the identity of Brianna's real father, Jamie Fraser, and Claire's travel through time. In Voyager, Claire and Brianna trace Jamie's life since the battle of Culloden during the Jacobite rising of 1745. Discovering Jamie survived the massacre that heralded the destruction of many clans in Scotland sends Claire back to the stone circle that first hurtled her through time - twenty years before.
Plot summary
1746
Voyager opens on the battlefield at Culloden, where Jamie Fraser finds himself gravely wounded and his rival Jack Randall dead. Jamie is carried to a nearby farmhouse where 18 Highland men have gathered. Harold Grey, Earl of Melton, arrives as representative of the Duke of Cumberland and announces the survivors will be shot. As each man is led outside to be executed, Melton takes his name for the records. At Jamie's turn, Melton recognizes him as famed Jacobite “Red Jamie”, but is forbidden to execute him because Jamie spared his younger brother, Lord John Grey, at Preston, and sends Jamie home to die of his wounds.

Voyager 2
by: Virginia CoalitionI hear you clearly
Though you're hardly in my view
For I'll listen in the way in which you told me
Hold them nearly, all these murmurs of the earth
Pushing forth white waves when something hits the water
And all directions, they point inside of you
And all connections, to life beholding
The pebble in the puddle made the ripple in the water
Made the tree casting shadows on the river through the swaying limbs I see
Voyager 2, you're leaving together
Send help soon
And I've seen spirits and children all waiting, waiting for you
You draw closer now with a message held within
From all who gazed into the sky in silent wonder
What a number, the living and departed
For people all alone forever searching for an answer
Almost screaming to be heard
Modern words confusing their own need to listen
Spirit foresee endless course of aboriginal direction
Answer prism, resurrection, the earth, the child, the sun
And the stars we see

And all directions, they move inside of you
And all connections, the life beholding
The pebble in the puddle made the ripple in the water
Made the child sleeping soundly by the river
