"The Golden Hour of the Future is a compilation album of recordings made by the electronic band The Future and early recordings by the original line-up of The Human League. Material by The Future features Martyn Ware, Ian Craig Marsh and Adi Newton, who recorded around ten songs in the home studio of a recording engineer in 1977. The band compiled a demo tape from those recordings, which they played to record companies on an ill-fated trip to London. The band did not find a recording deal and Newton left the band to form Clock DVA. Ware and Marsh continued as The Future for a short while before deciding to recruit Ware's friend Philip Oakey as lead vocalist. Now renamed The Human League, the trio recorded in an abandoned Sheffield factory, where they put together their first two singles for the Fast Product label ("Being Boiled" and "The Dignity Of Labour") as well as a number of other recordings before signing to Virgin Records. Most of those other recordings are included on this compilation album, along with many of The Future's recordings - only those songs that were later re-recorded for Virgin were omitted from the compilation, for contractual reasons. The album was compiled by Richard X and released on his Black Melody label in 2002, with assistance from Human League members past and present and Sean Turner, creator of the Blind Youth website. The album was preceded by the promotional limited edition EP Dance Like a Star, which included four Human League recordings not featured on the album.The Human League The album was re-issued in September 2005 as a re-mastered edition, both as a CD and as a digital download. The track listing remained the same although digital releases featured a 'Shorter version' of the final track 'Last Man on Earth'. The CD carried a new catalogue number MELCD5.

""I Am a Child of God" is a hymn of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) for all the members, but more often sung by children. The lyrics were written in 1957 by Naomi W. Randall and set to music by Mildred Tanner Pettit. The song has been translated into over 90 languages. The phrase "I Am a Child of God" is also used in the LDS Church as a declaration of a basic teaching of the church. Composition Naomi W. Randall, lyricist Randall composed the first three verses of "I Am a Child of God" at the request of the general board of the Primary Association, of which she was a member. The board wanted a song that could teach children about LDS Church teachings on the nature of a child's relationship with God. Randall described how she composed the song: > I got down on my knees and prayed aloud, pleading that our Heavenly Father > would let me know the right words. Around 2:00 a.m., I awakened and began to > think again about the song. Words came to my mind. … I immediately got up > and began to write the words down as they had come to me. Three verses and a > chorus were soon formed. I gratefully surveyed the work, drank of the > message of the words, and returned to my bedroom where I knelt before my > Father in Heaven to say "Thank you!"Karen Lynn Davidson (1998). Our Latter- > day Hymns: The Stories and the Messages. The song is still sung in almost > every LDS church at least once per Sunday. (Salt Lake City, Utah: Deseret > Book) pp. 303–04. Randall mailed the lyrics to her friend Mildred T. Pettit in California, who wrote the accompanying music. Word change The song was first performed at a stake Primary conference in 1957. Several years later, apostle Spencer W. Kimball asked the Primary general board if the phrase "Teach me all that I must know / To live with him someday" could be changed to "Teach me all that I must do / To live with him someday". As Kimball later explained, "To know isn't enough. The devils know and tremble; the devils know everything. We have to do something.""New Verse Is Written for Popular Song," Church News, 1978-04-01, p. 16.See also Pat Graham, "Sharing Time: Fun with Favorites," Friend, October 1984, p. 14. Randall accepted the change. Publication and additional verse The song was first published in the LDS Church's 1969 Sing with Me, a songbook for children. In 1978, Randall composed a fourth verse to the song. However, when the song was added to the LDS Church's 1985 hymnal, the decision was made to not include the fourth verse because it was considered by the Church Correlation Committee to be "not officially part of the song".Abbey Olsen, "Beloved Song Turns 50," Ensign, February 2007, pp. 76–77. When a new church songbook for children was produced in 1989, the fourth verse was included. "I Am a Child of God" is hymn number 301 in the church's 1985 hymnal and on page 2 in the Children's Songbook.
