We describe the use of new lyrics for old, well-known songs in a CS0 course on IT fluency. We also show how the music itself facilitates student understanding and retention of a set of key computing concepts. We conclude with results from a survey to assess student attitudes about the material from the course, along with pragmatic considerations and a brief discussion of future work.
