Music video: TOS theme with lyrics (a cappella arrangement)

[Shipbrook]

Hi there! Long-time lurker, recent member, brand-new poster.

There are a few videos out there where people sing Gene Roddenberry's lyrics for the TOS theme song (including Tenacious D and Robert Picardo), and several where people sing a cappella arrangements of the theme (without lyrics), but I couldn't find any that combined the two. So I felt compelled to fill that void myself:

Wow, you've got a great voice, and impressive range! (Can't carry a tune in a bucket myself - there's a reason I play drums!) Love the intro bit too! The lyrics themselves are horrendous as always, but you do a wonderful job with it.

I looked at your YouTube profile, and I'd seen your TOS version of the Lower Decks intro before (not sure where). Great job on that too!

Good heavens! You actually made them sound ok!

This is fucking brilliant! Very well done, my good sir. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. The rendition of the song is perfect, but I gotta say, the whole virtual set works rather well, I love the costumes and the fact that your cadet (?) version pulls out a TOS Universal Translator to use as a mic. Brilliant! No notes.
