One of my very few regrets in life is that I didn't take Tom Lehrer's course on musical theater when I was a student at UC Santa Cruz (he was a math prof). I was too terrified to try out. Life lesson learned. Professor Lehrer has just put all of his lyrics and music into the public domain, and has them up--temporarily--here: https://tomlehrersongs.com #tomlehrer #music #parody #publicdomain

@leoba I was surprised a few years ago to discover how few folks nowadays know about Tom Lehrer. His satirical songs from the 1960s, which many of my friends growing up in the 1970s had committed to memory and could cite chapter and verse, often remain sadly relevant in the 2020s.

If you have not heard of Tom Lehrer, it is well worth an online search to find videos and audio recordings of his performances.

Tom Lehrer has always been a major influence and inspiration for me. Now, in what may be the greatest musical boss move of all time, the maestro has released all of his songs into the public domain. Hats off to the ultimate badass nerd legend!

Eine ganze Menge der Songs von #TomLehrer stehen vollkommen legal auf seiner Website auch zum #Download bereit. Lohnt sich, da zuzugreifen! Und nicht zu lange warten, die Site wird wohl demnächst vom Netz genommen, wie ein Vermerk auf der Homepage anmerkt.
