I don’t think it was the singing bringing dishonor but instead the fact the singing happens by expressing inner feelings and emotions.

I found it peculiar how the Klingons were saying there was no honor in the singing—considering how into Opera the can be known to be—up until I heard how they got the most egregious of the autotune.

And they wore gold lamé!

To sing does not dishonor a Klingon, but to be forced to sing by something the Federation set off, that dishonors a Klingon.

That definitely was a funny surprise. Up until that point I had assumed that the Klingons would be doing their own style of music, but evidently the reality field the whole subspace network was tethered to was a very specific kind of musical that excluded Klingon opera.

Dishonorable. Klingons may only sing the heaviest of metals or the most glorious of operas.

I was hoping for a Klingon death metal number throughout the episode. This was probably only opportunity to see something like that.

Hopefully they’ll do more… Luckily there are some songs and bands out there. Really if I want to satisfy my urge for Klingon it really doesn’t matter what type it is they just have to sign it in the original Klingon.

I feel like Lower Decks might be able to pull it off.
