[edit] Music of spheres allusion

Thanks for updating Doremi Fasol Latido. Have you got a link or ref for the Music of the Spheres allusion? - I was unable to dig any up. My understanding is that, although the title may very well be an allusion to the Music of the Spheres, the actual words (Do, Re, Mi, etc) are taken directly from solfege/solmization. The Sound of Music merely popularised them. Secret Squïrrel 09:13, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the info re Professor Bubbles' cosmological views! He's confused two related concepts because Pythogoras didn't assign syllables to the tones of the spheres - that was done later in the 10th or 11th century. Anyway, I've always thought that Lemmy was the sane one... Secret Squïrrel 14:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Just a quick note to let you know that I clarified your note re the music of the spheres allusion, to make it easier for people who haven't heard of Do-Re-Mi-... to understand the origin of the words (ie why those words were chosen instead of some other solmization). Full text now reads:

Yes, I picked up on your aversion to mentioning the S of M in a Hawkwind article (quite right too) which is why I linked Do-Re-Mi to the disambig page and not the song page. I agree that there could be some more detail re Bubbles' vision - you seem to have a primary source for that, do you want to have a go at summarising what you put on my Talk page?

And again thanks for the heads up on the Hawkwind:Do Not Panic TV doc. Recorded it, watched up to Lemmy's departure last night, watching rest tonight. Cheers. :) Bubba hotep 20:25, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
