  Chandra :: Photo Album :: Note on Cosmic Distances
In astronomy, distances are measured in units of light years, where one light year is the distance that light travels in a year—10 trillion kilometers.
One of the central problems of modern astronomy is to accurately determine Hubble's constant, which is a measure of the rate of expansion of the universe.
We assume throughout the Photo Album a value of the Hubble constant that corresponds to a recession velocity of 600 kilometers per second for a source at a distance of 30 million light years or 10 million parsecs (H0 = 60 km/s/Mpc).

 Hope This Finds You Well (Best Of) - Further Seems Forever, Music Downloads - Online
This Album was released by Further Seems Forever on 03/21/2006
However, seeing as the Florida five-piece have seen as many lead singers as records, the album resonates as a compilation of similar sounding bands instead of just the one.
Though the main vocals may be inconsistent from song to song, the music rarely falters, justly proving that Further Seems Forever was much more than just Chris Carrabba's ex-band -- even if their Christian-tinged brand of emocore somewhat struggled to sidestep the shadow lingering in his wake among members of the punk community.

  Light Years - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Light Years is also the American name of the Rene Laloux animated film Gandahar.
Light Years is the seventh album by Australian singer Kylie Minogue and was released in 2000.
Light Years is largely seen as Minogue's "comeback" album as it saw her return to her pop roots and to the top of the charts.

The worst part of the album though is Kids which is spoilt by Robbie Williams.
Light Years is a true fun filled pop album with the perfect amount of glitter, and tongue in cheek camp.
Title track Light Years hints at the next incarnation of the Kylie sound and closes the album perfectly on the high it starts on.

The album version doesn't exactly make you get up and dance......in fact, I didn't much listen to Light Years until I heard the live recordings of the song, which are incredible.
Light Years was the 4th single of Jamiroquai's second album: "The Return of the Space Cowboy".
Light Years didn't do as well as it's predecessors in the US (Space Cowboy and Half the Man did a lot better) but this single is a very cool combination of remixes plus a great bonus track.

 Kylie - Light Years Ahead
The inspiration drawn from this album is straight from those experiences, the beach, poolside parties, hot disco nights, and emotions after one or maybe two cocktails.
Having said that, Kylie is clearly living the best years of her life now, there's no better time to catch up with Kylie and recap on everything from her first job ever; Skyways, playing a drug snorting gangster's mole, and love according to Kylie at 30 something.
As the years have gone by, I'm much more tuned in to my own sense of style so there are less of the 'copycat' comparisons these days.

 Filmtracks: Gladiator (Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard)
Their spiritually uplifting nature is an incredible contrast to the rest of the album, so if you decide to go ahead and purchase it, wait until the last few minutes before jumping to a final judgment about it.
Zimmer and Scott produced this album, and they thankfully chose the very best quotes to include on the album, even getting a little bit of Oliver Reed into the mix (which, of course, is noteable because he died in the post-production of the film).
The sound quality of this album is stunning, and simple stereo sound (as opposed to a surround system) may not provide the ambience necessary to enjoy the music and dialogue at the same time.

Her previous album Kylie Minogue was both a critical and commercial failure despite collaborations with some of music's most eminent and respected songwriters and producers.
Light Years is Kylie's somewhat unexpected return to form as she goes back to her roots in full-on-feather-boa-disco-diva mode (à la "Step Back In Time") on tracks like "So Now Goodbye" and "Under the Influence of Love".
This is an outstanding album from Kylie and it's not difficult to see why the public suddenly got interested in her music again when it was released.

 Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain
Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain is the fourth album by Sparklehorse.
Although it is Sparklehorse's first studio album in five years, approximately 25 minutes of the 55 minute long record have been previously released in some form.

 Sparklehorse: Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain: Pitchfork Record Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Five years in the making, it was hindered by Mark Linkous' professional and personal frustrations, depression, and his well-documented fight with drug addiction.
Dreamt for Light Years proves less targeted than 2001's It's a Wonderful Life, but this is a check in the plus column: Linkous sounds best when he's warring with structure and sound, when his songs sound unsettled.
Instead, this sweetly weird Dreamt for Light Years finds the common ground between the polished songcraft of the latter and sculpted static sounds of the former, resulting in an album that has the feel of a long journey undertaken.

 Music
Arguably Kylie’s most anticipated album yet, ‘Light Years’ was released in September 2000 to massive critical and commercial success, spearheaded by the No.1 hits ‘Spinning Around’ and ‘On A Night Like This’.
Unashamedly pop, ‘Light Years’ featured collaborations with Robbie Williams, Guy Chambers, Johnny Douglas, Steve Anderson and Richard Stannard, and was Kylie’s first release on the Parlophone label.
Fuelled by the success of follow-up singles ‘Kids’; and ‘Please Stay’, and a special tour edition of the album, ‘Light Years’ achieved platinum sales in the UK and 4 x platinum sales in Australia.

 Jamiroquai | Music | Singles | Light Years
On this second single from his underappreciated album, The Return Of The Space Cowboy, Jamiroquai complements a horn-fiddled funk throwdown with savvy remixes that flirt with mainstream house and hip-hop concepts without eliminating the quirky tone of the original version.
This 12" includes the live version of Journey to Arnhemland that was recorded from the Paradiso in Amsterdam on 17 December 1994 and the live version of Light Years that appears on the US release of the Space Cowboy album.
US-only remixes of "Light Years" by Derrick McKenzie, Rickard Berg and Roy The Roach for the "Way Gone Mix" and the "True Power Mix" whilst Phil "Philly Cheesesteak" Cassens and Todd Chapman for the "4 To Da Floor Mix".

I was already hooked on her dance tracks, but found a lot on LIGHT YEARS to really make me love the album.
LIGHT YEARS has some really great dance tracks, including modern sounding recordings (Spinning Around) and disco fusion dance sounds (such as the title track Light Years and Disco Down, to name just two).
I think that when it's all said and done, LIGHT YEARS is one of Kylie's best albums to date, a very close second to FEVER and something that everybody should have in their music collection.

If "Fever" was Kylie's comeback album in North America, "Light Years" was her comeback album in the rest of the world.
When "Fever" appeared two years later and caught on in the USA and Canada, it was a validation of the stylistic directions Kylie had moved in on Light Years.
Light Years combines all of the best elements of 70s disco-pop wrapped up in state of the art production, lyrics that are disposable (without being insulting), irresistible beats and a completely winning sense of humour.

Therefore to increase the album's chances of reaching a wider audience they've decided to put out three seven inch singles in the weeks leading up to the release of the album.
The album's standout track is 'Shade And Honey', a love song built on a simple guitar riff which was first heard being sung by actor Allesandro Nivola in the 2002 film 'Laurel Canyon'.
To the unintiated listener, however, 'Dreamt For Light Years...' is a superb, cohesive collection of songs which proves that you shouldn't judge an album by it's name.

This long-awaited album from the true Princess of Pop Kylie Minogue initially disappoints me. After the fabulous Impossible Princess, the four-year wait has to result in Light Years, a fluffy disco stomp album?
It is a fact that she cheerfully acknowledges in Love Boat, a great summer anthem: she is in fact playing on every horny male's fantasy.
It probably set back the feminist movement by ten centuries with Kylie going "The purpose of a woman is to love her man", but it's all a joke.

 Kathy Valentine: Interview
Light Years, the new solo album from Kathy Valentine, may not be quite that galactic distance from the sound of the Go-Go's, but neither is it likely to be mistaken for the California quintet.
It was a pleasant surprise to learn that not only does she have an excellent singing voice, she also exhibits a winning confidence and hard-earned wisdom in a lead vocalist role.
The lead vocals on Light Years are remarkably self-assured for someone who hasn't sung that much lead in her career.

Granted, with the teen pop movement at its strongest, one could say she just has good timing, but this work is leaps and bounds better than her Stock-Aitken-Waterman work.
Light Years is not just another Minogue dance-pop record, but a great collection of disco stylings and Europop kitsch.
Arguably one of the best disco records since the '70s, Light Years is Minogue comfortable with who she is and what she's good at.

 Sparklehorse, Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain, Album Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Four years in the making, disrupted by battles with drugs, and stitched together with collaborators as diverse as Danger Mouse, Tom Waits and Joan Wasser, Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain should be a cold, disparate record, an imperfect patchwork, but nothing could be further from the truth.
'Dreamt For Light Years.' is underpinned by a single electronic blip that persists through all the shifts in the ten minute duration of the song.
This is a proper muso album, almost firmly in the adult end of the spectrum, but altogether accessible for anyone who leans towards rock.

Her voice is beautiful and confident.....allowing the listener to relive their own last "ten light years" '.
Poetry, piercing melodies and a voice remarkable for its strength and sweetness combine in 'Ten Light Years', the mesmerising new album from Caroline Trettine.
From the haunting melancholy of the love songs, 'Leaving' and 'Beside You' to the playful celebration of 'Love across Time' and the surreal bleakness of 'Elizabeth's Shoes', this is a voice of great depth and assurance.
