And they were comically bad:

Beyond the rim of the star-light
My love Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know he'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love, strange love a star woman teaches.
I know his journey ends never
His star trek will go on forever.
But tell him while he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.

It really has been a long road getting from there to here

[-] FrankFrankson@lemmy.world 34 points 10 months ago

I really feel like the opening of that show is one of the main reasons that show flopped

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 7 points 10 months ago

Lots of people did. The executives thought so too. So they changed the mood of the opening to a more bubbly one, right when the story took a dark turn in the Xindi war.

I liked the theme, BTW. But I guess me not being from the US plays a role in my reception of it.

I’m watching Enterprise right now. I swear he says “it’s been a long load, getting from there to here”. Annoys the crap out of me.

Star Trek: TNG theme song lyrics:

🎶 Data's cat spot is a very good cat
give him forehead kisses and a lil belly pat 🎶

DS9 lyrics:

🎶 It's all about the Latinum, baby! 🎶

Sisko walking the Promenade while rapping:

"Now... whatcha wanna be? Station Guard? Working man? Morn's barista? Dabo girl sporting Garak fashionista? Devout Vedek staring out at Bajor's vistas?"

[-] kelseybcool@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

This is art.

Almost

[-] Arghblarg@lemmy.ca 17 points 10 months ago

Yeah GR was a bit of a dick it seems...

Trivia: the lyrics are given in the songbook that comes with the Suzuki OmniChord, model OM-84, page 21 of the manual

The Omnichords sort of looked like a weird Vulcan instrument, which is fitting I guess.

Love, strange love a star woman teaches.

a bit on the nose there

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Kirk would’ve had even more space love’n if the writers had to hear this on repeat.

[-] JimmyBigSausage@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I need to hear a soprano singing these!

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Tony never had the makings of a varsity performer

[-] Dhrystone@infosec.pub 2 points 10 months ago

I actually don’t mind the lyrics. Kitschy and seem to fit the music well.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Is that what happened to M*A*S*H?

[-] giddy@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago
[-] ericisshort@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Somehow I didn’t get the notification of your comment until now, but this rules. No one could possibly do that better than Jack Black.

[-] qevlarr@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I actually think these lyrics aren't that bad

[-] Plopp@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

Yeah no they're bad. Pretty, pretty, pretty pretty bad.

[-] kindenough@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

I would dare to say awful.

[-] Klear@sh.itjust.works 14 points 10 months ago

My condolences.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
