That's from Hubbard's third album, The Road to Freedom, which was done in collaboration with some of the biggest stars in the world, such as John Travolta, Chick Korea and, yep, Frank Stallone. It's basically a Scientologist version of U.S.A. for Africa if "We Are the World" was about getting rich off of scamming people. And yes, when we said "third album," we meant that there's lots more of this shit. Hubbard's bizarre musical career started with his true masterpiece Space Jazz, an album which was intended to be the soundtrack to his even truer masterpiece: the novel Battlefield Earth.

It's sort of like Pandora's Box, except Xenu pops out and takes your money.
Most people associate Battlefield Earth with Travolta dressed as a Rastafarian mime. But if it was up to Hubbard, that title would make you think of horses dancing, prancing, and mating, judging by this ridiculous track (be warned that we might unwittingly be exposing you to advanced Scientologist brainwashing techniques with these songs). Other tracks have evocative names such as "Alien Visitors Attack," "March of the Psychlos," and our favorite, "Terl, the Security Director." We're pretty sure that last one is a Def Leppard cover.
