Big Bang Theory

The BARENAKED LADIES have teamed with TV's #1—and newly minted Emmy® nominee for Outstanding Comedy Series—The Big Bang Theory (Thursdays 8/7c on CBS, premiering September 22) on a special music video for the band's full-length version of the hit series' theme song. The video was shot on The Big Bang Theory set and gives fans an exclusive insider's look at the hit sitcom, via never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage of the show's table read, rehearsals and episode taping in front of a live studio audience. The band was joined in the video by the stars of the award-winning show: Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar.
The audio recording will also be featured on the band's upcoming greatest hits package, HITS FROM YESTERDAY & THE DAY BEFORE, as well as a deluxe two-disc version of the album titled STOP US IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ONE BEFORE. The latter will feature never-before-heard rarities as well as some of the band's best-known songs. Both albums are being released on September 13th.

The series' entire 12 season run, and nobody told me there were more verses?

Just finished the last episode last night and still can't accept the change that everything has come to an end. This show has completed me. Thank you, TBBT

[dr.zoidberg]

what I learned today:
-Barenaked ladies sings this
-it's 2 minutes long
-I love the song 200% more now

Whether or not you like the show, you can't deny it had one of the greatest theme songs in TV history

I remember saying to my girlfriend when this show first aired “this is gonna be the F.R.I.E.N.D.S of our time”. And how true that’s turned out to be.

Lyrics: The Big Bang Theory

Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started, wait
The earth began to cool, the autotrophs began to drool
Neanderthals developed tools
We built a wall (we built the pyramids)
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries
That all started with the big bang (bang)

Since the dawn of man is really not that long
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song
A fraction of a second and the elements were made
The bipeds stood up straight, the dinosaurs all met their fate
They tried to leap but they were late
And they all died (they froze their asses off)
The oceans and Pangea, see ya wouldn't wanna be ya
Set in motion by the same big bang
It all started with the big bang
It's expanding ever outward but one day
It will pause and start to go the other way
Collapsing ever inward, we won't be here, it won't be heard
Our best and brightest figure that it'll make an even bigger bang

Australopithecus would really have been sick of us
Debating how we're here, they're catching deer (we're catching viruses)
Religion or astronomy (Descartes or Deuteronomy)
It all started with the big bang
Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology
It all started with the big bang
It all started with the big bang.

Me: true

[PokemonZeta]

I love how much Kaley is into it! She's singing along and bouncing around

[tacotyus]

As a lover of both young Sheldon and the Big Bang theory, I think this is ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME.

[Vleaso]

I learned more from this song than I do from school tbh.

[dylaninpieces]

The Big Bang happened billions and billions years ago and this song accurately explains that and beyond. 10/10.

[iRiccardoArpino]

Just finished my 7th re-run of TBBT. And as tradition, I come here to finish the entire song, as I finished the entire season, while I finish crying my eyeballs out.

Thanks for everything, TBBT is my life. 💛💖

They sat in Sheldon's spot but because they are the band who sing the theme song I'm going to let them get away with it.

Just watched the last episode :''(
It was a very emotional episode

[suryahyma]

It is so nice to see the whole crew, especially Kaley (and her shouting for "They froze their asses off") enjoy the song so much!! 12 Amazing Seasons and never did it's curve of amusement go down. Hands Down the best Sit-com for a reason!!

Our whole universe was in a hot dense state,
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait...
The Earth began to cool,
The autotrophs began to drool,
Neanderthals developed tools,
We built a wall (we built the pyramids),
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries,
That all started with the big bang!

"Since the dawn of man" is really not that long,
As every galaxy was formed in less time it takes to sing this song.
A fraction of a second and the elements were made.
The bipeds stood up straight,
The dinosaurs all met their fate,
They tried to leap but they were late
And they all died (they froze their asses off)
The oceans and Pangea
See ya wouldn't wanna be ya
Set in motion by the same big bang!

It all started with the big BANG!

It's expanding ever outward but one day
It will pause, then start to go the other way.
Collapsing ever inward, we won't be here, it won't be heard
Our best and brightest figure it'll make an even bigger bang!

Australopithecus would really have been sick of us

It all started with the big bang!

Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology
It all started with the big bang!
It all started with the big BANG!

With fingers like that I don't see how Waolowitz was such a lonely guy.
