Man, MST3k had more legitimately good musically bits than they had any right to

This era of Mst3k with bill, kevin and mike is pure magic.

Who is still listening in 2024?

Kevin Murphy and that golden voice.

The unofficial theme song of Old World Blues.

As a music history nerd, I loved when Tom Servo thought at first they were going to sing "that Schoenberg - Milton Babbitt crap". Which is exactly what Hollywood used to go to for sci-fi alien music. Made the joke even funnier!

Am I the only one amazed by how good Mike lip-synced in this?

There was a time, so bright and gay It seems like only yesterday When I held your brain in my arms Your adrenalin was like wine Sweet perfume was your endocrine When I held your brain in my arms But now your brain is gone and it's left an empty hole I gaze into your sockets but you're just a hollow skull I used to love a lotta Your medulla oblongota And your basal ganglia I remember we would stroll along your fissure of Rolando When I held your brain in my arms I miss how we would float down your vestibular canal And how we would go swimming in your pons The music you would play us On your locus ceruleus First Observer- Still tickles my neurons Now I'm sorry that I dropped you That I accidentally plopped you When I held your brain in my arms It caused a contusion When I held your brain in my arms During "Suddenly Susan" When I held your brain in my arms

Wow! Kevin's such an asset.

Anyone else thinking how perfect this song would have been in Fallout: New Vegas: Old World Blues?

I love this song so much! The final verse always makes me laugh till tears come out of my eyes, especially the line ".... I accidentally plopped you..."

2021 here -- "Suddenly Susan"!😂 Damn, this dates it...and me. I was just thinking the other day (...pandemic brain), does anybody else remember the episode of "Suddenly Susan" where Brooke Shields (newly-paired up with her boss), borrowed Judd Nelson's toothbrush, declared how scientists had discovered that our tongues are a hotbed of bacteria, then wildly scrubs her tongue with his toothbrush, handing it back to him? And the look on his face? I LOL-ed like crazy, back before that was even a thing. Ah, memories 👅🤭

There was a time,so bright and gay it seems like only yesterday,when I held your brain in my arms. Your adrenaline was like wine,sweet perfume was your endocrine But now your brain is gone,and it's left an empty hole I gazed in to your sockets,but you're just a hollow skull I used to love a lot-a,your medulla oblongata, and your basal ganglia

After I listen to this beautiful song, I have to listen to some Ink Spots. Wonderful satire of some wonderful singers.

Kevin really has a great voice.

The rhyme of "contusion" and "Suddenly Susan" is perhaps one of the best lyrical pairings ever.

Excellent use of correct medical terminology.

Right? Everyone mentions how good it sounds and I’m like, “how did they manage to insert locus coeruleus and basal ganglia in a love song?”

So many good times with this show. This song kinda reminds me of the song i dont want to set the world on fire lol

Kevin's voice is truly lovely!

I'd love to see the reaction of people who know nothing about MST3K watching this... What the???

Kevin didn't sing this on camera because he was in costume as Professor Bobo and it probably would have been too much work to get all the ape makeup off, get the Observer makeup on, and then the ape makeup back on again.

I really whiffed on this when it originally aired on the sci-fi channel. As a long time Monty Python fan, I ignored the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band for years. This is a great homage to Vivian Stanshall. Great musical number Mike, Bill, and Kevin!

Idk. He can sing, but this style doesn't seem to fit his voice. I don't think I can even imagine his voice in this song over Kevin's. And again, Mike has sung well in other places. I just don't feel like this song would highlight Mike's voice.

Kevin has much more of a "crooner" voice than Mike does, so he's a better fit for this style. IMO, of course.

Speaking as a music lover and Kevin fan, I miss hearing Servo complaining about maybe hearing "that Schoenberg/Milton Babbitt crap"...

These guys were incredibly talented.

Kevin does an amazing Billy Kenny.

I remember being able to sing along to this, kinda sorta, but now I can only sing the lower Brain Guy parts. No falsetto! Pwee poo.

I swoon!

I think I'll dance to this at my wedding.

the BEST. SO funny and SO well done! bravo.

It's like if Robyn Hitchcock wrote for the Inkspots.

When are they going to record their best songs for an album?

YES!

It's like Puddles meets Marilyn Manson

This sounds like it needs to be on one of the fallout soundtracks

grat. had this on the DVD extras and hoped someone had put it up.

I can sing this by heart after having heard it just a couple of times back in 2010 on KZread. Something about it just made an indelible mark on my brain (pun intended). MST3K was my favourite TV show back in the late 90s when I briefly lived in the US, along with Mr. Show. I don't remember seeing it when it originally aired, though. If there exists a boxed DVD set, then I know what I'm getting myself for Christmas. The US produces both the best and the worst TV and movies, HOWEVER, sometimes (but rarely) the Czech mutation is better than the original because I actually liked MASH on CZTV but was very disappointed when I saw it in the original. So, given the fact that both the best and the worst material gets produced in the US makes for a perfect combination when you have a show like MST3K because whoever wrote that was a genius, right down to details like this one song.

@realradiodevil I assumed it was because he would have had to paint over his mustache.
