The shot for "between our quests we sequin vests" is alarmingly well-chosen.

You forget how f'n campy and corny TOS was at time.
Hey, it was the 60s...

Before I open that link, is this thing going to eat my soul and mind like "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins"?
If so, I'm not touching that with a 60 foot pole.

God, I did not realise TOS had so much dancing...
As a random aside, BBC2 has started showing TOS on Saturday afternoons. We're only two episodes in ("The Cage" and "The Man Trap") and I already know that I will never be able to leave my house again.

...and on review that already shows up in the youtube sidebar. Still, it's very well synced up; easier with animation than live action I guess

No. It was "The way to Eden".
With Skip Homeier as Dr. Sevrin
Mary-Linda Rapelye as Irini Galliulin
Victor Brandt as Tongo Rad
Charles Napier (now a famous charachter actor who plays cops) as Adam
Deborah Downey as Mavig
They are singing:
"Head'n off to Eden,
Yeah brother.
Gonna live off whatever we find..."
Want to know what the wall safe combination in Episode 27 was?

I have not yet watched the video with sound (I'm at work) but I already find it hilarious.
