But... but... am I the only one that finds inclusion of the song in the lecture inappropriate, from a copyright point of view?

I teach as well. And I try to include things to make my lectures more interesting and engaging. Which is what this professor does as well. Why did he have the song in there in the first place? To entertain, not to educate. And to entertain by using someone else's work is... well, exactly the kind of thing we want to prevent.

This strikes me as showmanship, not as an honest debate on fair use.
