The opening theme song for Red Dwarf contains lyrics that you may not have noticed until now

The opening theme song for the series Red Dwarf has lyrics—you may just not have noticed them until now.

After more than twenty years, one observant fan noticed something that no one else had noticed. In the second half of the opening theme, composer Howard Goodall used a vocoder and sang „Red Dwarf“ four times. Until now, practically no one had noticed!

The discovery was first brought to light by a user named „Darrell“ on the Ganymede TV forum, who noticed the detail while watching the episode Can of Worms (series 11). His discovery was subsequently confirmed by Howard Goodall himself on Twitter:

"I am honored and delighted that my vo-coded message from the past has been deciphered."

🔊 You can listen to it yourself:

Try focusing on the second half of the song, specifically around the 20-second mark, and you’ll see (or rather hear) that Darrell was right.

Official confirmation from Howard Goodall can be found in an article on Digital Spy:
