Supposedly this is master musician Laurence B. Rayne's rejected love song that was supposed to be attached to Empire Strikes Back. There's something about it -- I can't place my finger on just what -- that makes me think it just might be fake. However, it might be that ol' Lucas, knowing that Luke and Leia would end up to be brother and sister in ROTJ but unable to tell anyone, vetoed the song knowing how weird it would later be to see Luke and Leia during such a romantic interlude. Although that still doesn't explain why he let Leia slip Luke a royal tongue on Hoth.
Regardless, this song blows my mind with its awesomeness. And I declare that "Skywalking" is now the Official Topless Robot Euphemism for "fucking." Please make note of this for all future comments. Much thanks to Mike S. for the tip.

Is it wrong that I got a little teary-eyed during that wonderful performance?

So does this mean I can now tell all the trolls around here to go skywalk themselves?

if Lucas rejected this it was proably not due to how he had lei and luke realated but giving a new meaning to skywalking. not to mention someone proably showed George the video and he nixed there. in the time when his mind was working. though just love luke trying to get it with Leia.

@demoncat: I think that video is right up Lucas' alley. Ever seen the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special?
And, speaking of the Holiday Special, I don't think Lucas cared (if he had decided yet they were twins yet) that Luke and Leia were sucking face. I mean, in that Holiday Special Chewie's dad skywalks himself in the living room in front of his family and company while watching a video of his human female ultimate fantasy. I mean, Lucas is a skywalking weird dude.

@Bill
Hate to break the news to ya buddy, but I'm Skywalking Kate Beckinsale right now as I'm typing(I can multitask)
Awesome song and video, If Lucas makes a Star Wars musical, this song should be included
This also confirms my suspicions that Leia is a fire demon.

Um, much as I admire L. B. Rayne's fashion sense, does anyone else think he's saying "Dantooine" in that first verse?

Please remember to register your skywalking comments with #skywalking in twitter. This is definitely a meme in the making. Thus ends the public service announcement (and my shitty grammar).

Maybe Lucas planned for Luke and Leia to be siblings all along? I don't know about you guys, but every scene with Portman and Christensen in Episode 2 feels like incest to me.
I mean incest being done to me...

I almost had to stop playing it because I heard "Dantooine", but I'm glad I gave it a chance. The rest of the song is pretty entertaining.

to answer your question electron sexy pants yes i have witnessed the star wars holiday special and the scene where chewbacca's dad is skywalking is the one reason that thing is so infamous and had me wonder what was Lucas on to make that. and Lucas to me has always been a skywalking weird dude since day one.

The phone number listed in the credits is area code 952, which wasn't created until the year 2000.
It's for Minnesota, if anyone cares.

Amazingly enough, the "production values" for this are so high (CGI!!) there's no way it could have been done in 1981, but man it's pretty fantastic.
