[redanzl]

Absolutely brilliant!

[AbominableK]

No joke, I actually prefer this version to the original. He sounds like he's tripping fierce.

[benbaked]

that was awesome!!

[StuPadazzo]

Well done... well done.

[myasshole69]

Gweorge Takei diliked this video 140 times!

[BeckMax]

WORST COVER EVER!!!

[Jemmer1000]

@BeckMax Yes, yes. But it's the best worst cover ever...

[tomada36]

I'm trying to find a video that shows Shatner singing "Mr Tambourine Man". The best I can find is a video in which you can hear him singing, but which contains Star Trek clips. Has anyone ever found a clip that shows him singing it?

[DixieAbiter]

I had no idea that Kirk could sing so well.

[KKRG128]

so funny

[JamiJR]

For the first time ever I actually understand what's being said in this song. Thank you William Shatner! And I love the Lucille Ball parts.

[ManticoreFire]

This is the funniest thing ever.

[billkasperdotcom]

Thumbs up for a new Grammy category:  Best Shatner Beatles Reading

[franksollun]

fantastic!

[stow600572]

best thing I've seen on youtube for years - brilliant piece of work :)

[MrRafaelBCK]

I think this is a perfect occasion for a Piccard facepalm.

[Bigar1234]

L.S.D. was the songs original name

[Flutterfleee]

This reminded me of Charlie the Unicorn... O.O

[stx377]

great vid, great song ! who wrote it?

[DannyMcPhils]

@stx377 Really? REALLY? The Beatles wrote this. Shatner ruined it.

Seriously what the fuck am I even watching/listening to? He actually sounds like a schizophrenic

[LeifEricson]

Words cannot express what a perfect job you've done with Shatner's first sign of insanity.

[puppypuncher61]

he,s been to the sea of GREEN

[corbinmichael123]

HILARIOUS!!

[TomaszTerkaczanVLOG]

HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK I'M WATCHING?

[Davidtavares97]

shit,why they have to ruin one of the best songs?

[Quaaludedude714]

He was on some Cool Quaalude's :) QC

[kdreamland]

134 people climbed in the back with their head in the clouds.....but they didn't go.

[Rainesails]

I remember thinking someone dosed him big-time when I first heard it when it came out. Now, that many years later...still think somebody was doing a bit too many 'shrooms or blotter acid...hmmm?

[viciadoemhalo3]

WTF? What kind of drugs was he using when he made this video?

[thejokerofarkham]

Fuck, is horrible. The 10 worst cover in the history but should be the 1st

[pablooros]

Thumbs up if you came here from rolling stone magazine's worst cover songs of all time

[Pudabudigada]

I am literally physically cringing all the way through this!

[TheLandlordsCHI]

Does anyone know if there is an instrumental version of this Lucy rendition? On a side note, this is true magic

[Snow8Man975]

Did anyone notice Travis Bickle at 1:48?

[tomada36]

@Snow8Man975 Good catch with Bickle!

[hjenkinz]

Why did Uhura leave Star Trek?

Because William Shatner

[cochranexyz]

The video is quite good!

[LarsGunblade]

Wonder would John Lennon thought of this version?

[fizzypopism]

@LarsGunblade He realized what a vastly inferior person he was.

[crowblade28]

is he high?

XD

[JLS121001]

hey OMG at the mo in dramer we are doing this...xxx

[MrBuckwilliam]

lucy got some splainin' ta do O_O

[TheShadowEdge]

Absolutely fantastic, loved the "singing" and the animations. Shatner forever!

[jncriton]

holy that is freekig hillarious some how shatner has made that song evne creeper but at th same time even more epic chuck noris move over here comes WILLIAM SHATNER oh god he is just i almost died laughing from this i think only deadpool could possible top that but deadpools not real so shatner takes the cake

[arejayseeottawa]

You mean, Lucy in the Sky with Shatner!

[LycanKing97]

weird, but funny as shit, great job

[kurydebarcelona]

I got a good laugh, thank you

[salvo711]

Climb in the back with your head in the clouds, and YOU'RE GONE!

[FabFM]

Greatest Beatles cover ever!

[TheShadowEdge]

Only Shatner could pull this off. Amazing!

[Izayoiaki24]

Is he even singing? Oh, god, he's not singing. He's just talking. No, he's shouting.

I can hear John Lennon rising from his grave, preparing to battle Shatner.

[100irissa]

lolololol, this is horrible, i can't stop laughing. He sings like a psycho

[kotkavuori]

I am from Finland. I have been in San Francisco about 6 times. The answer is clear - Lucy in the Sky with Diamons! LSD! San Francisco! Oh well, if you took that seriously, you are an asshole! Still, as an european I gotta say I love San Francisco! Hey, 666! Fuck Bush and Obama! :D

[elizabethb1999]

EPIC!!!!!



[cordeliann]

Gotta be a real trekkie,and/ or fitty at least, to appreciate the humour in this. to funny, good memories

[maxlharris]

Funny bit of trivia... Desilu produced Star Trek. One degree of separation.

[mycatwilatackyou]

lol

[andreawicz]

My brother said it best... this is sheer genius. Such brilliance in putting this together so carefully! I can't stop laughing. This totally rocks!!

[intelligentblue]

That doesn't sound like Shatner...not even young Shatner...

[CristianApostol]

whoever wrote this was high

[cordeliann]

@CristianApostol It is a Beatle song. so I would say high yep yep yeppers

[xJoeEDangerouslyx]

@CristianApostol Not only that, take a closer look at the title.

Lucy in the

Sky with

Diamonds.

Lucy, Sky, Diamonds.

See the drug reference? In case you don't, Read vertically and you will.

Lucy

Sky

Diamonds.

Get it?

[CAB00S316]

@xJoeEDangerouslyx Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds is not a drug refference. It was based on a drawing that John Lennon saw Julian Lennon drawing. Don't believe me? Try reading a book.

[jncriton]

@CAB00S316

was jullian on lsd?

[SMitchellNI]

Why is Uhara Black? 'Cuz William Shatner.

[TiffanyRay187]

This is one of the best videos... ever.

[100irissa]

God, this is that terrible and horrible that i can't stop laughing, lololol

[kandiamo]

I am so glad you posted this! No one believes me!  :D

[Slave2Reason]

This is so fucking bad that it's genius!

[scalporf]

This is just so fantastically well-done. I am laughing my ass off.

[imafanofballoonshop]

hahahaha! i don't think i stopped laughing throughout the whole thing. i had heard shatner's version before, but this made it infinitely better. good work.

[AranelVetinari]

Calm down, Kirk! Nimoy had was more in the right with his level of excitement in the Ballad of Bilbo Baggins. (Not to say that doesn't indeed have its own problems, but Nimoy's enthusiasm for what he is singing does not figure among them) It simply ISN'T *that* exciting! "someone is there! at the turnstile! The girl with kaleidescope eyes!"

Actually.. PTerry fans, I think I may just have discovered an example of punctuation pronunciation... Shatner and the imaginary exclamation points.

[SunnyLovetts]

Don't kill this song, please...

[TheSneakyBugger]

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain, Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies. Best line in the history of music :)

[f00king]

Wow man. Peace out people.

[mattlove1]

It's appropriate in a way that possibly wasn't intended - the failure of the original Star Trek series bankrupted Desilu, who took a chance producing this property - which was only slightly less silly than Shatner's singing career (which took a turn for the better with "Has Been").

[ginnel99]

LOL!

[TheBeatlesFan420]

lol

[SwedishGrimReaper]

This must be the worst song ever

[TheHunterHatfield]

@SwedishGrimReaper Troll harder...

[owned1778]

lol am i the only one who likes this more than the original.

[NETWORK23STUDIOS]

Why in the HELL did he friken do this???

[lordsybok]

What did he take for doing this ? :-)

[DorasVideoLog]

This vid is amazing!

[TheSwordsman1995]

My opinion of him actually dropped lower. How did that happen?

[sulfurousstench]

this is how people who've never taken any drugs "sing". shattner is a corporate whore

[mattlove1]

@sulfurousstench If you are an example of how a person who has taken drugs "thinks" and "spells" - kids, take note! Stay off those drugs.

[sulfurousstench]

@mattlove1 I don't do drugs, thanks for offering..."clever" use of quotation marks though asshole.

[andycasdmx]

fkn awful

[myasshole69]

Shattasttic

[barrydeez]

I do believe, that I am experiencing a flash back!

[sebringf1]

2:50, shat road!

[sebringf1]

0:58, pfffffffff hahahaha!!!!!!!! sargent. shat's lonely hearts club band!!!!! the beatles version was 100% better!

[lordsybok]

Funny ... And I am sure the Shat takes it very serious and all stuff ...

[v8foad]

Thats 1:20 of my life i'll never have back !

[sbtech01]

@v8foad meh... you'd probably just waste it.

[obiwanobiwan13]

Groove Factor Five, Mr. Sulu! ;)

[K34NO]

This is ruining my favorite song.

[pickmystrings]

What the fuck is this shit?

[StarWarsFanatic99]

LOL

[thundercow1]

@weightfeather1 As am I and HOPEFULLY everyone else on this page will too!

[jofnbu]

111 People have had their sense of humour surgically removed.

[aaardvarkkk]

Can you use "Shatner" in a sentence without referring to William Shatner? Yes. Every girl named "Lucy" shatner pants when she saw this.

[ThePoetech]

@aaardvarkkk Ahahahaha

[Pyro5139]

@aaardvarkkk another redneck word

[vkdee44]

Excellent!

[Tyrfingr]

One word.. Weed!

[CaptainRoyMustang170]

@Tyrfingr LOL

[Firedogmax]

this makes the song even more trippy...

[Beatles4everL]

WTF!!! e.é

por dios!! qué han hecho con esta hermosa canción!? TT_TT

apesta!!!!!!!!!

just the beatles!!

jum!!

[Zell666Dincht]

wat

[thundercow1]

was this serious?!?!? like seriously?!?!?

[raynarks]

This is so bad, it's brilliant.

[wingandaprayer]

@raynarks ...No...its so bad, its awful...

[noisetheorem]

hmmm....bacon.

[oldschoolhawk]

the shat is the shit is he not ?????

[wheresthejam]

Love that.The Shat sure can pull some strange jibs.

Groovy.

[epiclulz66]

William Shatner had a bigger ego than Bono.

[gudlaffy]

somebody should have laid off the happy pills

[GmanGregilla]

While Van Halen was searching forever for their band's prospective new lead singer, they should have selected and called upon (or at least strongly considered) William Shatner. I can envision right now that he would've absolutely nailed and crushed "Running with The Devil" and "Unchained".

Or, William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy could've shared such vocal duties together therein.

INXS and Riders on the Storm should've also considered all of this.

[electriclimits]

holy shit that was incredible.

[jmen4ever]

I recall that the feds use music blasted real loud against people they are really pissed at. This would really drive one to either surrender or slit ones wrists.

[rubbleroll23]

@jmen4ever i dunno im pretty high right now and im about to listen to it again

[LuigiEspadachin]

Captain Kirk is on a bad acid trip...

[mhlytle]

Hey guys !! I do a Beatles covers show on my radio show every Christmas season...... so can any of you MP3 this song to me ?? Send to lytlekkfiAThotmailDOTcom and listen in for the covers show in december sometime, only on friday nights, 7pm CST, on wwwDOTkkfiDOTorg Rock on !! Mike in KC

[DawnCandace]

Wow.

[ShunGuan]

106 people can't PICTURE themselves...in a BOAT...on a riverrr...with...TANGERINE Treeees and MARMALADE Skiiies!!

[achefefreitas]

That video represent EXACTLY how is a LCD sensation, haha

crraaaaazzzzyyy, bro!

[trublu71]

Psychedelic TV land insanity. Love it

[TheJackson889]

This song is my perverse way of celebrating John Lennon's 70th :)

[gregorysharp]

Great... damn that's funny.

[shitcasecinema]

Epic. I almost died laughing when I first saw this. I want this played at my funeral.

[ALGERNONSENCE]

Are there words adequate? L.M.F.A.O.

[DWNicolo]

The Lucille Ball /Gene Roddenbarry connection!

[detecteve1]

f*ckin' scary:O

[TomPatCat]

This isn't serial surely...

[RomulanCommander]

McCoy! What have I told you about your "special perscriptions"?!

[jacklebot]

This is epic beyond imagination.

[FredC1968]

Everybody knows that when William Shatner performs a song he makes it his own.

[joerockusa]

William Shatner Rocks!

[BobboFairbro]

brilliant.  period.

[JohnRylander]

This is simply genius.  Brilliantly conceived and executed. The world is in your debt forever.

[glimmer2158]

Yay brother!

[LoobyLou1961]

Brilliantly funny and very Monty Pythonesque. Luv it !!!!

[mrmartinmartin]

ZEIG HEIL MEIN SHATNER!

[TheNEWfilmfanatic99]

William Shatner could do a spoken word version of rap!

[qqqCYBERLEADERppp]

@TheNEWfilmfanatic99 i thought that was rap?

[TheNEWfilmfanatic99]

@qqqCYBERLEADERppp

Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, are you?

It's a joke BTW

[qqqCYBERLEADERppp]

@TheNEWfilmfanatic99 sorry but incase you haven't realised its rather hard to tell sarcasm over the internet. maybe your jokes need a bit of sharpening to suit the style of text instead of voice.

[TheNEWfilmfanatic99]

@qqqCYBERLEADERppp

Never thought of it like that, being the sarcastic person that I am

[Musiclectica]

2:07 AHAHA!! 2:27 is pretty great too. Love this video:)) It's hilarious!

[Troy211619]

Ah! I can't stand this song, its so bad that it makes me want to listen to it even more! I must be sadistic!

[tarzanmorrison]

Absolutely brilliant--this oughta be on television.

[starlitexdecay]

LMAO 1:30 !

Lucy and Kirk blasting off xD

[ClarkSavageJr]

This video was fanTASTIC.  Thanks for sharing.

[c3cilial]

If you want to brainwash someone out of revenge (or fun), lock that person in a dark room while playing this video over and over again. Success guaranteed.

[MissBeatle1]

voted in at least one poll as the very worst beatles cover ever. 

[BobChaos23]

2:23 ~ "The girl with Colitis goes by"???

[Izayoiaki24]

I think George Clooney once said that if he had to take one song with him to a desert island, it would be this one. Because if you're trapped on a desert island with this song, you will hollow your leg out into a canoe if it means getting off the island.

[TheSpoiler001]

HOLY MERG-A-TROID BATMAN!!!

THIS HAD TO BE THE MOTHER-LOAD OF CRAPPY MUSIC!

O_o

O_o

[petewingnut]

Good stuff

[videogamenostalgia]

this is either the greatest thing ever, or a sign of the coming apocalypse. I haven't quite decided yet myself...

[MarcelTrucmuche]

Superbe travail video ! Vous êtes digne de Terry Gilliam !

[24Joyjoy]

I love this video but, anybody else get really confused after watching this???

[TheSpoiler001]

@24Joyjoy Actaully I got nauseated....

:oP

[rooster5man]

Shatner needs to perform this live...That would be amazing.

[recordplayr]

@rooster5man But they would definitely need a large screen in the background flashing images. Like an old 60's freak out man. 

[rooster5man]

Yeah, that's what I meant, thought people would pick up on that. Thanks though.

[bender1958]

@941jes You're welcome Jim

[bender1958]

LOL Funny!!!!!!!!!

[soremongs]

Visions of Fred Murtz's head exploding into a bouquet of flowers is going to make me wonder if my sofa is as happy in one corner as it is in an another and how does the room feel about it?..I worry about these things.

[samuelmorrison]

If that lizard man had done the robot in the middle, it would have been perfect.

[bender1958]

What's really interesting is that "Star Trek" was produced by Desilu (which was the production company of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz)

[TheJunglesound]

who made the video? Its fucking shit.

[kaleb764]

my weed got laced coke and i played this and i was screaming cuase i didnt know what was going on and i was screaming this isnt the beatles

[recordplayr]

My favorite part is when Fred Mertz' head explodes.

[samuelmorrison]

@recordplayr where was that?
