These are extraordinary qualities
One of the absolute best things about Wall*E are the end credits. They tell the story of what happens after the movie ends: revealing man's evolution and the recreation of Earth (with the help of those friendly robots) through the evolution of art (from stone age scrawls on walls to egyptian hieroglyphics to van gogh's impressionistic styl). All this action is set to wonderful tune called "Down to Earth" that has been stuck in my head ever since I saw the movie like three times in a row after I rented it for a bit.
Did you think that your feet had been bound
By what gravity brings to the ground?
Did you feel you were tricked
By the future you picked?
Well come on down
All these rules don't apply
When you're high in the sky
So come on down
Come on down
We're coming down to the ground
There's no better place to go
We've got snow upon the mountains
We've got rivers down below
We're coming down to the ground
To hear the birds sing in the trees
And the land will be looked after
(Come) send the seeds out in (the deep?)
Did you think you'd escaped from routine
By changing the script and the scene?
Despite all you made of it
you're always afraid of the change
You've got a lot on your chest
Well you can come as my guest
So come on down
Come on down
We're coming down to the ground
There's no better place to go
We've got snow upon the mountains
We've got rivers down below
We're coming down to the ground
We'll hear the birds sing in the trees
And the land will be looked after
(Come?) send the seeds out in (the deep?)
Like the fish in the ocean
We felt at home in the sea
We learned to live off the good land
We learned to climb up a tree
then we got up on two legs
But we wanted to fly
When we messed up our homeland
and set sail for the sky
We're coming down to the ground
There's no better place to go
We've got snow upon the mountains
We got rivers down below
We're coming down to the ground

We're coming down
Comin' down to earth
Like babies at birth
Comin' down to earth
Redefine your priorities

It's awesome. You should rent it. Listen to the song, too, cause Peter Gabriel makes me happy and he'll likely make you happy too!
