first time I heard this song I was blown away - it's one of my favourite Al songs (or songs in general for that matter!) I love the "I'm going to the - going to the - " layering of voices

And the middle bit that's so fast - I won't even attempt to sing along with that! Though, dancing to it does take some care so one doesn't injure themselves!! ;-)

haha!! Has anyone mastered the bridge of this song? I know I have not.

I wonder if Al can do the bridge even faster?

As it stands, he sorta spliced it all together, and then it was sped up a bit. Not sure if he could sing it any faster.

Does anyone else think the sound effect intro is kinda like the intro to "Money" by Pink Floyd? I always thought he might of had that in mind when he made it...

At the concert (backstage afterwards), my Father convinced Al that I could recite the whole bridge in one breath, and he was like "Impressive!" .... I mean I've memorized it and stuff (who hasn't?) but I can't recite it that fast let alone do it in one breath. WHAT an amazing digital lung indeed.

I can nearly,NEARLY do the bridge. I get to 'automatic circumcisers' and i crack up!

I just can't sing it that fast. I'm Jewish so circumcisers aren't that hilarious to me. I don't really think ANY Al song can make me burst out laughing while I'm singing it, because I get serious about being funny. I dunno what it is. ^ ^

I know what you mean. Im normally very serious and precise when im bein funny. But when i get to that bit I get a mental of when my big bro was circumcised and spent a month walkin round like john wayne!!!
