I'm sorta disturbed that I sorta enjoyed that song.

...and the proud tradition of horrid star trek songs continues onward.
I sorta liked the song too...

Thank you, I happened to have been listening to an excellent Dahlia song, cranked ALL THE WAY up, and I accidentally clicked on the download link. A few seconds later, Picard jumps in bellowing. :-P

I will never be the same again. Can't sleep. Picard will eat me... Can't sleep. Picard will eat me... Can't sleep. Picard will eat me... Can't sleep. Picard will eat me... Can't sleep. Picard will eat me...

On a related note, here's an excellent interview with the best Star Trek tribute band I've ever heard, Warp 11. (OK they're the only Star Trek tribute band I've ever heard.)

At the end of the interview are some mp3 samples of their songs. I've been to few of their live shows. The music is suprisingly good. Check it out.

Also S.P.O.C.K.

I can do a mean Jean-Luc Picard impersonation. It's like my party piece. My only one.

Oh God...

Actually the vocal sampling in that last link is of a high standard if you can get past the extreme cheese factor.

Great. Now I'll be syncopating all morning. With Patrick Stewart, no less.

Clearly the world can proceed now with its regularly scheduled evolution.

That said, that Picard one is more than a little funky.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Add The No Kill I to the list of unnecessary Star Trek tribute bands.

I thought Jean-Luc Picard was of the United Federation of Planets.

There's a mediocre (but in parts clever) movie called Free Enterprise, in which Shatner does a rap about Julius Ceasar and the ides of March.

The really bad thing is that I heard the Picard samples and could identify most of the episodes that they came from. I need help. Really, really badly.

Points off for dropping the "Luc" in the Picard sample.

Never before has so much bandwidth been dedicated to so much cheese.

I can clearly hear the 'luc'.

Can I just say that between this and the snake-eating hole man, I'm having the best visit to Metafilter I've ever had. Thank you.

Just to warn any of my friends who may be reading, every mix CD you get from me for the next year or so will contain this song.

No 'luc'
posted by NortonDC at 4:47 PM on May 3, 2004

There is Luc. Listen closely.
posted by brownpau at 9:26 PM on May 3, 2004

Nope, it's a percussion beat. Hell, read the GIANT TEXT.
posted by NortonDC at 10:08 PM on May 3, 2004

He corrected the giant text. And he says Luc. And Han Solo fired first.
posted by brownpau at 10:34 PM on May 4, 2004

THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!

Okay, okay, I'm willing to listen with fresh ears. Where are you perceiving the Luc, near the at the beginning or end of the long vowel sound?
