*sifts through the aforementioned myspace comments...tries in vain to rub headache away*

Although an artist expects to not appeal to everyone and even with the freedoms America offers for speech, such behavior should make these kids feel embarrassed. Al already stated you can not quantify art. With that being said you either are the right audience for Al and the animator or you are not.

And there were two individuals who were "confused"...by the video. Either the amount of film/theater-culture references thrown the two girls off.... or they just shown off their ignorance beautifully. If I say anymore I'll lose my cool.
Visit Elvis' website to read "The Completionist Guide" for accessing all sorts ofWeird Al songs (and sometimes ridiculously miniscule) be it rare gems or ridiculously miniscule from 1973 to 2019. weirdalstar.com/uhf/

Yup, and the 98% thumbs up rating has gone down to 71%.

Darn trolls :angry:
This means something. This is important.

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

The more I listen to it, the more I'm sure a certain "style" is there. I just have no clue who it could be.

Fountains of Wayne, or haven't you been reading. I'm telling you, that's it.

Um, NNY273000 already beat you to it, Gianna. Pretty funny clip, though.

Being an actor and a Disneyland fan (despite having not been there in nearly 5 years), I gotta say, I simply love this song. :good:
I am shocked, offended, and a little turned on.

I don't curse. Except around vampires.
