- Nena - 99 Luftballons
99 Düsenflieger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Es gab ein großes Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoss man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons
Captain Kirk is mentioned in both the original German and the English version. The reference is actually moved to a different verse in the English version so that it still works.

Wanna be the Captain of the Enterprise
Wanna be the King of the Zulus
Let's meet and have a baby now!
This one might could also be a reference to any one of the many Navy ships with the name, but I choose to believe someone in the band is one of us.

We should be so lucky as to associate with those genius weirdos.
Low hanging fruit, but White and Nerdy by the great one.

Gonna show my age here but Intergalactic by the Beastie Boys ends talking about the Vulcan nerve pinch.
Not as old as Star Trekkin'.
How no one mentioned the Information Society song "What's On Your Mind" (Pure Energy) yet is beyond me. A song with multiple clips from Star Trek along with Spock saying "Pure Energy" over and over.
The obvious winner must be Benjamin Sisqó and “Thong Song”.
Admittedly a little out of character and morally dubious, but a certified banger all the same.
Benjamin Sisqó
It had to be done. I apologize for nothing.
I was going to say this one.
I caught this video in the middle of the night on MTV and was sad because I could not remeber who sang it. I tried repeatedly and finally caught it again and bought the CD.
Great song (Banditos) by a great band (The Refreshments).
In 1998, Rod Stewart recorded a cover of the Star Trek: Enterprise theme three years before the series premiere.
You had to mention that song didn't you?
Joe Satriani's Crowd Chant was originally going to be called Party on the Enterprise and would have included Trek sound effect samples, but he couldn't get the licensing to work.
I think we're supposed to come up with the songs. I'll start.
Oh man I forgot all about this dude. I saw him at so many cons over the years.
Will always upvote a Voltaire ref. Love this song.

Starships were meant to fly
My wife (and probably many others) disagrees, but I'm firmly of the opinion that Starships by Nicki Minaj is an uncertified trek banger 🙌
