651 ( Marty Simon - Jerhume Brunnen G )

I am in just an odd mood tonight and for some reason I felt like choosing an "alien" song from an older Sci-Fi show that I used to watch and still like: Lexx. The song, written by Marty Simon, premiered in the second season in the episode "Brigadoom."
This was an odd episode that told the back-story of one of the main characters: Kai, who was an undead assassin created by The Divine Order. This episode took the form of a musical opera, it told how his people became immortal and then isolated themselves from the universe. They then became bored with their immortal existence and welcomed death at the hands of The Divine Order, however some, led by Kai, decided to attack and perished. Kai's body was reanimated and was made into an assassin for The Divine Order. This was the battle hymn sung by those who went into battle.
In subsequent seasons this song was used as the opening theme song.

Here is the opening sequence featuring the song on YouTube.
