My favorite Vic scene is when he sings “The Best is Yet to Come” with Sisko, Avery Brooks is such a great singer.
However, the scene is contrasted with the fact that in the scene previous O’Brian was strip searched by a hologram guard. Julian asks him what happened to which O’Brian retorts “I don’t want to talk about it”. The rest of the crew join in the musical ensemble but I can’t imagine O’Brian was really in the singing mood after that ordeal.
I think his voice is great but he’s not a singer, as such. There’s a lot of acting in singing and some vice versa but the great thing about that scene is it’s his voice and it’s great. That carries the scene. And I dont’ know if the cast hadn’t heard him sing before then or what but their expressions of “holy shit!” are great.
Hey, don’t hate. Twenty slips of gold-pressed latinum is twenty slips of gold-pressed latinum. Quark doesn’t give away holosuite time for free. That payment has to come from somewhere.

Huh. Meanwhile I always found that scene awkward, brooks trying his best to sound melodic but contrasted by an actual singer.

Case in point: when the person I was watching with heard him start singing, they said, “Woah!”
Whaaat? His voice is awesome. They just sing in two very different styles.
