A song by Tom Apostol

 

Prime Obsession has an appendix containing the lyrics of Tom Apostol's song about the Riemann Hypothesis, with a full explanation of the lyrics.  (Tom is Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at Caltech.)

Included here is a sound clip of me singing the entire song a cappella.  For those with strong nerves, there is also a video clip of me singing just the first verse.  Warning:  my children tell me that the video clip is scary.
