- jmpeagle, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18ummm...they were specifically make fun of William Shatner for that
- CannedMango, on 10/10/2007, -2/+19This never gets old. Only Shatner could pull off something this ridiculous while keeping a straight face.
- Conway, on 10/10/2007, -6/+23I love this! Oh... and I also love the Family Guy version! Go Stewie!
http://youtube.com/watch?v=w95eCmyLl6U - acu8509, on 10/10/2007, -3/+15high tech effects ftw
- rkiga, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8singing to Lucas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p55YD8QhQ3o
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8God, I feel bad for the audience... 'Cause damn, that must've been awkward as hell having to sit there and not burst out laughing.
- thcobbs, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Back when smoking was still cool.
Too bad you can be that bad and still be "cool". - BalsamLane, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7William Shatner will most certainly kick Chuck Norris' ass, he's a rocket man.
- Hero0fTime, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I'm. a. rock. IT. man!
- Depthfunction, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5One of the greatest performances of the 20th century.
- ronmexico, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8Parody is the best form of flattery.
- Nicksname1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5WYSIWTF!?!
- Fantom, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Shatner with Joe Jackson & Ben Folds singing 'Common people': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eISBTBwWKeE
Even if you don't think he's a GOD like I do, it's not bad for a 76 year old! - Depthfunction, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5He wasn't smoking tobacco, though.
- scottauth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Such a good cover, although I prefer is take on "Common People" more. However, his original song "I Can't Get Behind That" which features Henry Rollins takes the cake. Track that record down, it's called "Has Been" and Ben Folds did a lot of the music on the album.
- wadetv, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Shatner has big, shiny balls.
- PeterBassett, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3That's why they call him the velour fog...
- image0434, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I made a music video a couple of years ago to one of his songs from his new album, "Has Been"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Nr3dkWbfVd4 - number9ine, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Each word is just as important as the one that precedes it. Maybe MORE important! No, as important.
- bouche, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2The detail is amazing in the family guy version. Notice Stewie's tongue/lip action on his closeup after he says "I'm a Rocketman!". It matches Shatner's second chorus and closeup where he does some shatner lip mouth thing. hilarious.
- ByronT, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-yy2URAYqU - newyawker, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2lol. Beautiful? I don't think so. Awesome? You bet.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Well, show me a Family Guy episode where they're not just making fun of something someone else created and I'll tell you it's funny. So might the ratings.
- watchdis, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2man, that was painful
- arnar, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1That was actually very good, thanks for sharing it.
- hero2zero, on 10/10/2007, -6/+7Is it wrong that I found this moving & beautiful ... in fact I had a little cry!
- SwabTheDeck, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Maybe you should stop allowing yourself to have so much time on your hands to go around researching other people's dupes.
- rodrigo74, on 02/24/2009, -0/+1We love him _because_ he is a douche, a totally out of touch douche.
- sexybobo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1like the song. but what does shatner know about common people any more?
also you might want to check out some of Leonard Nimoy albums.

But seeing Shatner PERFORM it on camera has so much more "impact". Someone should start a cult around this clip.
- TheWacoKid, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1kaaaaaahhhhnn!!!!!
- pillfred, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1I can't get behind a fat ass!!
- Frisbinator, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Why does everyone love William Shatner here? I think he's a douche.
- mentor972, on 10/10/2007, -7/+4When you submitted this and it said it was a dupe, why did you submit it anyway.

- hockeyrox20120, on 10/10/2007, -8/+1***** gay
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -18/+8Dugg for once more proving that Family Guy has no original ideas.
