Ooby Dooby
Discuss14this wiki
"Ooby Dooby" was a song performed by the Human musician Roy Orbison.
Zefram Cochrane, a fan of "rock 'n roll" music, played "Ooby Dooby" often on the jukebox in a small bar he frequented in Bozeman, Montana, in 2063.
When the USS Enterprise-E traveled back in time, William T. Riker made the mistake of unplugging the jukebox mid-song, resulting in him nearly getting hit by a whiskey bottle thrown by Cochrane.
"Ooby Dooby" was also played at the official First Contact between Humanity and the Vulcans, much to the shock of the latter. (Star Trek: First Contact)
