      That’s the thing, it’s supposed to be Wild West in space. I always thought it fit perfectly.

        The entire premise of Enterprise was that it was Humanity’s first foray into space outside our little backyard. The first Warp 5 engine gave Humanity the means to truly begin exploring.

        The entire intro is about the journey and faith in that exploration. Going through Humanity’s history of exploration, through every Enterprise until you get to the NX-01.

        I love the orchestral intros just as much as everyone else, but that’s just not the tone of ENT. It’s a perfect intro for what the show was.

        It was written by Diane Warren and only sung by Rod Stewart for “Patch Adams,” the film for which the song was originally written.
