Since I'm commenting, I should mention I just discovered this post and loved it! I listened to it with my toddler. My sister was working on a script about the satellite/record recently and I mentioned the movie Explorers from the 80s, which actually centers around it. I found your post while cleaning out my inbox a week or so later, so it was a great confluence. Not sure that I can recommend the movie since as a kid I thought the last half with the aliens was disappointing, but it might be worth a watch with your daughters. Also, my taste might not have been great in the 80s and it still may be questionable :)

The aliens will never forgive you for "Seagulls: Stop It Now"
Or Meghan Trainor!!
This is wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I have Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah stuck in my head though....
