I remember when Shatner did his album - I remember videos on tv with him in a black jacket, black shirt, the same style as this rocket man. I saw an interview at the time and he swore that he fell off a horse and hit his head right before going into the studio to record these... Yeah, right...
Guess he couldn't use that excuse for this performance at the SciFi awards!
I have Leonard Nimoy's recording on vinyl upstairs... Don't listen to it, keep it for the reminder of why some people just shouldn't be allowed to sing.
