That song derailed the reboot Battlestar Galactica series with weirdness
Yeah, you might be right. Mind you, I haven’t seen that episode.
Speaking as someone who bought Electric Ladyland when it first came out in 1968 there’s Jimi’s version and then there’s everybody else’s, much of which is excellent in it’s own right. I’ll give credit where credit is due - the guy who made the video plays a hell of a lot better than I can.
Actually, I always thought of the Bear McCreary / Galactica as a great example of how to do a re-imagination of a classic. The Galactica reboot was loaded with weirdness on many levels, but, IMHO it still worked quite well.
