Captain Picard as you’ve never seen him before…

... 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!

    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 :)
