  2 0 Kind of cliche but I enjoy "Mandlebrot Set" by Jonathan Coulton (http://www.jonathancoulton.com/songdetails/Mandelbrot%20Set). Has one f-bomb and not the most accurate of lyrics, but it definitely conveys the "Math is awesome!" feeling. alice answered in Arts & Music about 1 year ago | Report 1 comment by Emily Steed… 0 0 I was going to answer and mention that, but you've beaten me to it!

  1 0 The entirety of Calculus the Musical is funny, especially for those who grew up listening to the songs on which they're based. My favorite math song is Tom Lehrer's "New Math."  Griffin answered in Arts & Music about 1 year ago | Report 2 comments by Xiphiplastron and "Cagey"… 0 0 I would have to agree with "New Math" but others by Tom Lehrer include "The Elements" and those written for "The Electric Company" (although they tend to be more vocabulary oriented). Just listen to his stuff and you'll learn all sorts of new things (even though the songs are old). Just watch out for the likes of "Masochism Tango" as not being kid friendly. Xiphiplastron commented about 1 year ago | Report 0 0 Second the "New Math" by Tom Lehrer.... in fact, ANY of Tom Lehrer's recordings are a scream....
