... think twice before playing this video of Patrick Stewart if you feel you might -- in the eternal words of one of my ex-girlfriends -- "lose all respect" for Jean Luc. If you'd rather remember him in his eloquent poetry, do not play this video. For all I can tell you is that in it, he doth sing. And not an old time Klingon battle song either.

Does anyone know what this is from?
Update: Apparently the original video was removed from YouTube but I found this alternative one. Also took the opportunity to experiment with the Videobox wordpress plugin. Very cool!
Update: Videobox, SWFObject and IE don't appear to play well together so Videobox is gone!

OMG! Must… play…. Oblivion… To restore my faith in Patrick Stewart lol!
Oh noooooo! This can’t be!! Riker! Make him stop!!
surely this is not as bad as William Shatner hamming it up in Boston Legal…enough to make even the sternist Vulcan roll his eyes….
I think it’s an easter egg from Star Trek: The Next Generation’s 5th season DVD set.
Hi Jörg, I think you’re right. I have a faint recollection of having seen it before (although how I could forget such a thing is really beyond me.) It’s my nasty habit of offloading stuff on Amazon after I’ve watched it.
There is an easter egg of a song by Tuvok in the Voyager boxsets (can’t remember which season) which I will *never* forget! I think it was called “Amazing!” Oh boy! Strike two! :)

As destroyed as all respect for him that I have should be, I find him once again earning more of it than he should get.
Damn StarFleet captains…
I thought it was cute. what episode was it in?
(I am assuming you mean it was him singing the ABC song. i didn’t get to see it.)
Hey Maddie,
It wasn’t in an episode. It looks like something they were playing around with on the sound stage :)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!
Engage!!
