Wow. I’ve never heard this incredibly clever song before, I’ve never seen a group of senior singers & by god aren’t they talented & enjoying themselves, & I’m proud of you all sharing your obvious talent & joy with the world. Thank you from sunny Queensland, Australia. Della

Yep, algorithm decides what I'd like to see is a band of lads having a go at Tom Lehrer and absolutely nailing it, even without a piano!

Honestly this is such a good version of the song as well!

Tom Lehrer is so underrated! This is the first time I've seen any arrangement of Tom Lehrer, much less barbershop!! Amazing!

Tom Leher is such an obvious choice for a Barbershop Chorus. My dad was a member of SPEBSQSA and was in a chapter in Pamona CA and started a chapter in Lompoc CA. My whole life there were shows and corny jokes and music. That was a great gift. . . Thanks for posting this.

My parents were Tom Lehrer fans, and my dad was a member on Carson City, NV, Chorus of the Comstock. He also sang lead in a quartet called the Johnson Lane Misfits.

I have listened to Tom Lehrer songs so many times that I can sing along with them all. I enjoy every single song he has written.

Tom Lehrer is a genius. He's in his 90s and hangs out in Santa Cruz. I had all his songs memorized when I was a sophomore in high school. That was 67 years ago. Next you guys should take up "Vatican Rag" and "Wernher von Braun." And "Alma" and "Be Prepared."

He’s still alive? I’ve loved his songs forever it seems.

The algorithm is a strange thing. Sounds like I may have to make my own pigeon poisoning club now.

Tom Lehrer before he died released the copyright on all of his songs and music. It is all now in the public domain. Take any of his songs and music and do with it whatever you like. Have fun.

Tom Lehrer is still alive as of this writing (May 15, 2024).

I just want to say thank you for this, because the algorithm has brought me back to my choral era from school. It’s always amazing to be back in this groove. Thank you for this treasure

We prefer Chorus not choir

Hard to tell but I think a new song to some in the audience. Sickos to enjoy such a terrible song. LOL. I hope for some other Lehrer covers. Most of his work probably would not fly in small town Boise.
