    "comment": "May the 4th Be With You!\n\nJohn Woloschuk, a member of Klaatu and one of the song's composers, has said:  \"The idea for this track was suggested by an actual event that is described in The Flying Saucer Reader, a book by Jay David published in 1967.  In March 1953 an organization known as the 'International Flying Saucer Bureau' sent a bulletin to all its members urging them to participate in an experiment termed 'World Contact Day' whereby, at a predetermined date and time, they would attempt to collectively send out a telepathic message to visitors from outer space.  The message began with the words, 'Calling occupants of interplanetary craft!'\"  https://bit.ly/3dU7ul1",
