Tom Lehrer celebration, Part Three, featuring covers that were previously unknown to me:
Barbara Manning presents "Rickety Tickety Tin", a reworking of "The Irish Ballad", pushing things in a horror/country angle. If you happen to speak Swedish (which I don't), you have Lars Ekborg ready to translate and sing Lehrer for you. The Harvard University Band presents "Fight Fiercely, Harvard." They add a bit more flourish to the original, especially when it comes to the brass instruments. Nacha Guevara presents Estaremos Todos Juntos Algun Dia (We Will All Together When We Go in Spanish) Stan and Doug perform "The Hunting Song" with Swedish accents. How much of the accent is genuine and how much is merely comedic exaggeration, I don't care to guess.

Tom Lehrer coverage, part four. His Erdos-Bacon-Sabbath number is 9. Now you'd think his Erdos number would be the lowest, right? After all, they're both mathematicians. Nope!
Erdos number: Four Lehrer->Thomas L. Austin Jr. OR W.F. Penny->John Riordan->Ronald L. Graham->Paul Erdos Bacon number: Two. Lehrer->John Cleese->Kevin Bacon Sabbath number: Three. Lehrer->Joe Raposo->Frank Oz->Ozzy Ozbourne

Bob Dorough died yesterday.
Schoolhouse Rock was and is part of who I am. Even before I was a Trekkie, I was a SHR fan. I won't link all of the SHR songs that he sang, just some of my favorites: My Hero Zero Three is a Magic Number Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, Get Your Adverbs Here The Body Machine This for That

How Robert Picardo tricked his way into his cameo in First Contact.
Because as we all know, he's a doctor, not a doorstop.

A fun fan video where the TNG crew watches Star Wars.
See if you can pick out which episode each clip came from!

Star Trek Deviantart Day 10!
Stylized Female TOS Officer. I'm reminded of Erin Esurance for some reason... Klingon Santa Claus This Voldemort variant doesn't have much to do with Star Trek, but I have to comment that he reminds me of a Chodak from the game A Final Unity. A young Sarek This is supposed to be Gul Dukat, but his face is too round... Chibi Kirk and Rand. Have I mentioned how much I hate the green wraparound tunic enough yet?

The cast of Discovery sings Rent. Let's hear it for the... nerds!
I wasn't late posting this, nor I was I early. I posted it precisely when I meant to.

Some other covers:
There are people who use Animal Crossing characters as inspiration to cover such songs as "Take On Me" or "Fireflies" A sort of, I dunno, smooth lounge jazz version of "Come Together" https://youtu.be/xcUEc4xKG4c A bluegrass version of "Linger" https://youtu.be/6D_sGGJndow
