Tom Lehrer: New Math (concert live) (1965)
SMALL NOTE: When Tom talks about "subtracting" or "taking away [A] from [B]", he really means "B – A".
For example, subtracting 2 from 5 is the same as 5 – 2, which is 3.
The first part of the video (my signature slide) is overlaid by the final bars of "La Borinqueña", which I played on my keyboard.
The main part of the song is one of Tom Lehrer's live performed songs, "New Math". It is part of Tom's third published live performance album, "That Was The Year That Was". But I obtained the actual music from the box set, "The Remains of Tom Lehrer", which was released in 2000. Enjoy.
And the last part is the main theme of "The Phantom of the Opera", by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Simply the 'cherry on top', and my personal song.
Here's the description Tom Lehrer himself made about the song: "Third, for the benefit anyone who wants to follow the subtraction problems worked out in 'New Math', they are:
342₁₀ – 173₁₀ = 169₁₀ and 342₈ – 173₈ = 147₈.
(If this doesn't make any sense to you, ask the nearest eight-year-old you meet to explain it.)
[This attempt to revise the teaching of mathematics in schools was something of a threat in 1965, but it subsequently passed through the curriculum, not like a breath of fresh air but more like a kidney stone.]"
Sorry I gave so much information about the music earlier. I don't want to get screwed by stupid WMG again. They are a bunch of arse-holes. And to make sure I am not screwed, have them read the following credits:
