Now I have that DVD commercial re-playing in my head. *Animal crackers in my soup, monkeys and rabbits loop the loop*

 

[F. King Daniel]

Luckily, they don't have that commercial over here. Sounds like it'd drive me up the wall!

Happy 25th Anniversary to Star Trek: The Next Generation!

Here's the world's first glimpse of TNG. I remember seeing this preview trailer on the Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home videocassette. Get a load of that unused warp-jump effect at the end!

I've learned more about music looking up songs by the year online for this thread than I ever did at school.

 

[shapeshifter]

Yeah. I continue to be amazed at all the songs I thought were original works but were only covers of earlier work.

WIKI: "Mack the Knife" (Orignal) or "The Ballad of Mack the Knife", originally "Die Moritat von Mackie Messer", is a song composed by Kurt Weill with lyrics by Bertolt Brecht for their music drama Die Dreigroschenoper, or, as it is known in English, The Threepenny Opera. It premiered in Berlin in 1928 at the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm.

Familiar rendition:

Composed in 1926, published by Ben Selvin and His Orchestra in 1927
