So basically you had a popular youtube video and then you decided to completely rape it of all its original charm so that you could try and monetize on iTunes?
The original has the benefit of capturing the self satisfaction and arrogance of the director of the worst Star Trek film ever around the time of production. This version does a great job through the absurd of reiterating just how ludicrous that self satisfaction was.
Shatner's vocals are definitely better and funnier, but the music in this is way more epic than the original. If they'd somehow mix the two things together, that'd be perfect.
@JeweledBeast I'm guessing because the second last verse is talking about fit young men, sucking something, that are somehow peripheral, and it puts Shatner "On the mountain". Am I the only one who sees that as homo-erotic?
-- This version is epic in its own way. Need an example why? Hmmm... okay: Mountain taking a bath w/ Rubber Ducky FTW!!! Another? Mountain eating in bed, looking at a porn magazine FTW!!! Still not convinced? Awkward silence at the end FTW!!!! ;D
I like this version as much as the original! The first one may be funnier, but this one sounds a lot better. It doesn't have Shatner's voice, but I like it anyway. :) Nice job!
I love you guys but this doesn't fully work for me. Shatner is just way more mystifying than it's imitation. This could have been an awesome wtf-moment if it was the first time viewing, but as I've already seen and love the original, it just doesn't reach that high. New song for a video next time?
I liked it, but...like so many others before me, prefer the copyrighted/Shatnery one. I listen to that track multiple times a week. This must be the version you guys do live? Either way, keep going...but be champions of fair use! We need another Negativland!
Why can't you just ask Shatner or whomever (I really hope I use the right one) is responsible for the film to let you use it? It's transformative, so legally, it's fair use, right? Does fair use mean that one is allowed to make profits off one's transformative work?
Should we know who that guy is?
