It's beautiful in a way, that Nichols[Uhura] with her singing performance and Takei[Sulu] with his fencing got to live out their dreams outside of Star Trek, inside of Star Trek.
The skies are green and glowing, Where my heart is, where my heart is, Where the scented lunar flower is blooming: Somewhere, beyond the stars... Beyond Antares. I'll be back, though it takes forever. Forever is just a day. Forever is just another journey. Tomorrow a stop along the way. Then let the years go fading, Where my heart is, where my heart is, Where my love eternally is waiting Somewhere, beyond the stars... Beyond Antares.
I love Nichelle's persona, voice and music. I tried to remake the feel and sound of Uhura singing to Spock with my new song entitled "Cosmic Space Machine (Uhura Sings)" featuring Zenobia Salik on vocals. You can listen at czcams.com/video/Lb397KCzt50/video.html
Any real Trekkies here will know for sure . . . but I've heard that that's actually Nichelle Nichols' voice on the actual "Star Trek" theme. Is this true?
@@TomRiddleMeThisSpock Yeah, now that I look into it a little further, I think Nichelle recorded a disco version of the theme, using the same melody for her vocals. That's the source of the confusion.
Original: Loulie Jean Norman, Remastered: Elin Carlson. From Wikipedia: >>The unaired pilot "The Cage" used a wordless rendition of the melody line, sung by soprano Loulie Jean Norman with flute and organ, over an orchestral arrangement. When originally composed (and as heard in "The Cage"), Courage had Norman's vocalizations and the various instruments mixed equally to produce what Courage described as a unique "'what is that that I'm hearing?' sound."[4] According to Courage, however, Gene Roddenberry had the mix changed to bring up the female vocal, after which Courage felt the theme sounded like a soprano solo. Finally, for the third season it was remixed again, this time emphasizing the organ. The first several episodes, sans all vocals, was a concerto-like solo of an electric violin playing the melodic line. Norma's vocal was restored for the remainder of the season. Producer Herbert Solow recalled that Norman had been hired under a Screen Actors Guild agreement and that she would receive rerun fees for her part in the theme. For the second season onwards, her vocalization was dropped from the theme. Solow regretted the choice and composer Courage was not informed until twenty-seven years later.[5] The unaired version of the second pilot episode used an entirely different main title theme (Star Trek was the first series in American television history for which a network, NBC in this case, requested and paid for a second pilot episode)[disputed - discuss], also composed by Courage. This version of the theme never aired for when the second pilot was re-edited for broadcast it received the series standard titles and the original theme, minus the William Shatner opening narration (this was changed for home video) . In 2006, CBS began syndicating a "remastered" version of the series with numerous changes, including a re-recording of the theme music, which was used for all episodes of the series. Elin Carlson, a professional singer and lifetime Star Trek fan, recorded the replacement for Norman's vocalization.[6]
Don't you just hate it when you're trying to listen to beautiful music and someone poisons your chocolate milk behind your back.
her voice is some serious Disney princess shit , I can almost see space birds and animals putting ribbons and flowers in her hair
Talent,looks,brains she is the best . Today's tv is sadly lacking.
Darrell Johnson This woma is part of pop - culture history.
Darrell Johnson She definitely had it *all*. If I recall correctly she could dance too.
Man, Riley, this is inadvisable to listen to while on duty. A voice like that can easily send a man to sweet sweet dream land in no time flat.
Dec.28: Happy birthday Ms. Nichelle Nichols. Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload. Blessings
Note to some commenters: Riley didn't die from this, as seen later in the episode.
Nichelle Nichols has such a pretty voice.
Nichelle Nichols is a great singer and very pretty.

One of the best moments on the original Star Trek. One of my childhood heroes! Thank you, dear lady.
Haunting melody. Nichelle sings it beautifully.
Rest in peace baby girl. Beautiful voice.
"Beyond Antares" is from the episode, "Conscience of the King".
One of my favourite episodes
Nichelle Nichols passed away today 7/31/2022 at the age of 89.
... And Riley wasn't even wearing a red shirt.
RIP Nichelle.
The skies are green and glowing,
Where my heart is, where my heart is,
Where the scented lunar flower is blooming:
Somewhere, beyond the stars...
Beyond Antares.
I'll be back, though it takes forever.
Forever is just a day.
Forever is just another journey.
Tomorrow a stop along the way.
Then let the years go fading,
Where my heart is, where my heart is,
Where my love eternally is waiting
Somewhere, beyond the stars...
Beyond Antares.
thank you. :)
"The Conscience of the King". She did also sing in "Charlie X".
And, while there were no lyrics, she was humming in the episode with the mechanical device that heard her and sucked out her knowledge.
The Song is Called, Beyond Antares

David Whiteis I thought it was Majel Barrett

It is Nichelle.

I'll bet the Vulcan harp is a hard instrument to learn how to play.
Uhura Playing Spock's Vulcan Guitar
It's Called a Lyre
It's from The Conscience of The King.
Uhura sings in three episodes. Can you name the other two?
Herbert Hotel and Judge and Jury proof of listening 😮🎉
Nichelle sounds as if she were classical trained.
Did Barry Scott just roofie a glass of milk?
nice spray bottle. looks like a garden weed killer.
I think it's Charlie X
The third episode in which Uhura sings is "The Changeling"
