FORMER KLINGON LEADER WRITES SONG OF PEACE

FORMER KLINGON LEADER WRITES SONG OF PEACE

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) – Looks like the Klingons are doing their bit for the victims of the September 11 attacks. Actor Victor Lundin, who played the very first Klingon on the original Star Trek TV show, has just written a song of peace, “Coming Home,” to honor the survivors of the recent terrorist attacks. The attack struck a personal note with Lundin because one of his female friends narrowly escaped the World Trade Center attacks. However, her family was worried for hours that she was dead. The 72-year-old Lundin describes the song as “Eric Clapton doing gospel” and says it’s already striking a chord with those who’ve heard it. Although Lundin isn’t trying to cling on to his past, he hopes people realize that if a Klingon wants world peace, it must be important.
