I'm a Rocket Man... Revisited.

So, I'll admit that I kinda like this song. Always have.

And I love the literal version of its video that floats around from time to time.

But this?  Dude. There are no words. You just have to watch for yourself.
 



Every now and then I get a little bit terrified that this amuses me far more than it should! (Dude. Totally. I love it.)

EDIT - I showed this to my husband and this response went a bit like this: "Wow. He has excellent control of his falsetto." We then had to watch more Lin Yu Chun vids. Yes, my husband is a geek, too. Just about other things.

You can't go wrong with any Shatner version. Plus, I love the fact that the guy is more than willing to poke fun at himself.

Now, Nimoy's singing is another story...

That's it exactly. He is completely comfortable making fun of himself and you can tell. It's beautiful!

And yes. Nimoy's singing...um...not so much.

Ah, that is awesome!

This was actually one of my favorite songs when I was younger. I've never seen that literal video version, that was HI-LARIOUS!

Yes, and yes. I have only one thing more to say:

"Spin around, ninja!"

Thank you for the video - all of the, actually. That literal version is hillarious!

A friend of me made a wonderful Stargate video with this song.

Yeah, I just love the literal version. Cracks me up every time!

There are a whole series of those out there. Lots of songs.

So, about that friend. Where can one find said vid?
