On an unrelated note, how do I erase something from my memory banks? (The trick seems to be to leave a placeholder, so that I do not simply and immediately repeat the same trap again; otherwise I could continue seeing the same thing dozens, even hundreds of times, but it would be impossible to know! 🤪)
Thanks you @stamets@lemmy.world for introducing this gem to me
Anytime my friend <3
That being said, I’m still surprised you’ve never heard of it. The youtube video has 12 million views!
God, I first heard this on casette tape in like 1989…
It was posted 19 years ago too. I’m surprised myself.
Well at least you discovered it now and not later <3
I am a better person for knowing this exists
I’m a better person for knowing you, bro
I (American) lived in England when this came out. It was quite the phenomenon at the time! I have sung it to myself many times over the years.
US-born, UK-raised, there in '87. TIL there are people (Trek fans, even!) who didn’t know about this!
I think this was all over Europe, it was a big hit in the Netherlands.
surprised that they didn’t reference that song in lower decks
