I love Jerry. He was at the office a few weeks ago and I showed him this particular video. He died laughing. We laugh at the odd - and William Shatner's singing (Nimoy's too) fall into that catagory.
I didn't listen to the song. When I was younger, I liked Star Trek. But I've become very disillusioned with William Shatner. He is not Captain Kirk. But it reminded me that Ed Ames had a song called "Skip A Rope" I think. Song was sad, but he had a really good voice, in my opinion, AND he was Mingo, on "Daniel Boone". KDR
Ames started out a singer and then ventured into acting. We was good at that too. Mingo was one cool easy going Indian sidekick.
William Shatner on the other hand is an over-actor and not a singer but more of a "stylist."
I like Captain James T. Kirk & Spock. I do however like them away from the microphone. I like them way up high - way up there - going where no man has ever gone before - circling Uranus searching for Klingons.
I don't want them hanging around the band - edging their way to the microphone.
After watching this, I concur that you don't love Jerry very much do you?
