Single From Documentary `The Principle’ Released by JES’; The `Sky Stands Still’ for Controversial Documentary About the Cosmos Featuring Kate Mulgrew [VIDEO]

A new film called "The Principle," will explore strange new worlds that make Earth seem insignificant in their multitude. The Principle is narrated by Kate Mulgrew from "Orange is the New Black" and "Ryan's Hope." Kate Mulgrew is no stranger to the icy loneliness of space, having also starred in "Star Trek Voyager."

A stunning new single, called "Sky Stand Still," was just released from the documentary that just might have the power to save us from universal ennui.

Singer JES released her new single, "Sky Stand Still," from "The Principle," which debuted last weekend to sold out shows in Chicago.

"My main goal for a song is always finding that emotional connection with the audience. I wanted the words to mean something universally and make the melody beautiful so it touches the listener and leaves them feeling something. When writing for a musical theme you have that chance to sum it all up. Music is such an important component to film and I am excited because I think it is a powerful uplifting song that will connect with people and be able to reach a global audience," JES said in a statement.

The Principle features animations by BUF Compagnie Paris who worked on "Life of Pi," "Thor," "The Matrix: Revolutions," "Van Helsing" and "Harry Potter. The film also includes commentary and insights from Michio Kaku, John Hartnett, Bernard Carr, Robert Sungenis, Max Tegmark, Robert Bennett and other specialists.

The Principle "brings to light astonishing results from recent large-scale surveys of our universe-surveys that disclose unexpected evidence of a preferred direction in the cosmos, aligned with our supposedly insignificant Earth! The Principle leads us face-to-face with this most important question: What does this mean for the future of mankind?"

Rick Delano, who produced "The Principle" and co-wrote the screenplay with his son, Hero, remembered "Hero and I were on one of our occasional songwriting road trips up Pacific Coast Highway in 2010 when he played me the demo for 'Sky Stand Still.' It was simply instantaneous- the chorus didn't even come around twice before I knew this was the Theme Song For The Principle. But it wasn't until three years later, when the simply amazing JES brought us the soul- shaking line 'you will always be remembered...' that I knew it had finally been brought completely through the storm and safely delivered as the final moment of The Principle."

The Principle has come under attack for its geocentric bias. This has nothing to do with the song, but in keeping with full disclosure, here is a clip about what that means:
