Picard Song is a YTMND created by user ShittyMcShit. It was created on April 25, 2004, and was the first YTMND to get over 1,000,000 views. Its components are a tiled picture of Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation, an excerpt from "The Picard Song" by DarkMateria[1], and text that reads "CAPTAIN JEAN-LUC PICARD / USS ENTERPRISE".
The first YTMND to have passed 1 million views as of August 2005. On January 2, 2006, a hacker found the password for the site creator's account and deleted the site. Max Goldberg promptly replaced the YTMND with a previous backup, but was unable to restore its view count. By February 2006, The Picard Song reached 2 million views.
Confusion
Some users seem to believe that the "Luc" in "Jean-Luc" is not spoken in the sound file used for the site. The "Luc" is present, but it is difficult to hear because of the electronic beats that comprise the percussion of the song. Nevertheless, some users maintain that the "Luc" is absent.
The Picard-Batman War
When the Batman YTMND exceeded the views of Picard Song, a small Picard and Batman fad occurred.
