"Everybody
has to hear this!" enthused one listener of Hanai's
newest single.
“Living
on the space coast, every launch feels like family.
The loss of Columbia is having repercussions around
the globe.”
says
Hanai (Kris Lee-Scott) who wrote the words in her sleep
7 days to the minute after the landing was to have taken
place.
She and her company HANAI MUSIC, based right in
Titusville, FL has pledged a percentage of all funds raised
by the sale of the CD and the 'Docu-Show' will be donated to
a newly formed account called the “Columbia Fund”
through the CHALLENGER CENTER in Washington, D.C.
Katherine
Archer’s
clear lead vocal and acoustic guitar along with
Hanai's warm harmonies and moving arrangement of “Columbia
Farewell” make this a must-have song.

COLUMBIA
FAREWELL
By
Hanai (Kris Lee-Scott)
& Katherine Archer
We
watched you as your chariot
Was lifted off the earth
Into the outer atmosphere
Our planet giving birth
Your years of dedication, knowing
You were not alone
Others worked beside you
To explore the skies unknown
Climbing,
soaring
Above the world so far
Beside you, we guide you,
To send you where you are
Around
the earth you flew so high
For sixteen days and nights,
Each nation proudly gave its best
On this historic flight
Our
school rooms waited eagerly
Small faces watched in awe
For knowledge only found in space
Brought answers to us all
Floating,
dreaming
Above the world so far
We steer you, we hear you,
We’re with you where you are
{INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE}
On
Saturday we searched the sky
Against the morning light
But silence was your last goodbye
On this your final flight
You
gave to us your very best,
Your team had worked as one,
But not to earth will you return,
Your mission here is done.
Climbing,
Soaring
Above the world so far,
We love you, we miss you
You’re now our shining stars
Climbing,
Soaring
Above the world so far,
We love you, we miss you
You’re now our shining stars
