I’ve done many many songs about the Star Trek universe, but I’ve never done a song that was solely about the characters from the original 1966 TV series. I guess I always figured there were already tons of songs about those guys, so I instead concentrated on making songs about Data, Quark, 7 of 9, Neelix, etcetera. Now with a new prequel film looming, the time finally came for me to boldly go where everybody has gone before.
Background music by the Chief Engineer Emmett of Project Sisyphus. I also want to take a moment to acknowledge the following acts from the FuMP Sideshow, Curt The Camera Guy, C. Roses, Ridikulus, and Insane Ian, who all also did parodies of Rockstar by Nickelback, so please check out their stuff too. And do it soon, because they’re coming along on my next mission wearing their brand new red shirts.
Luke out.
