U.S. Space Force Releases Official Song, Gets Slammed Online
Department of the U.S. Air Force
The U.S. Space Force has released its official song … and folks online certainly don’t appear to be warming up to the new jam.
The military branch unveiled its official tune Tuesday during an Air, Space and Cyber Conference in Maryland titled “Semper Supra”, which means “Always Above” in Latin.
One social media user wrote, “Wtf is this? Might as well use the #StarWars theme song! What a joke! #spaceforce”. Another guy criticized its “night and day” lyrics saying … “there is no night or day in outer space…”
FYI, the Space Force was born in 2019, so it was only a matter of time before it adopted an official song like every other military branch.
Of course, this isn’t the first time the Space Force raised some eyebrows. You’ll recall, it got a lot of backlash in 2020 when the force dropped its camo uniforms. And folks pointed out the fact that it might not be the best idea, when trying to fly under the radar in space.
The song was created by two former service members James Teachenor and Sean Nelson.
