>>5182244I will post 4 and give my reasoning for each.

I think the notes and the message of the episode gives a hopeful, almost naive, vision of what we could be if we set our differences aside and strive to evolve into something better.

If I had to choose a singular game to show to an alien, it would be this one. I think it displays very nicely how humans are, our fears, both rational and irrational, and where do we think we're heading. This track both inspires awe and a sense of wonder.

These would be the songs I would choose to show to an alien, and if I can also deliever the contect of them also, all the better.
