Al would never do a song that political and I feel like we were penalized for the judge being unfamiliar with a #2 hit song. Even my old high school has already parodied Uptown Funk.

I mean...good job, guys.

@Wells: No, I see them fine? They are all similar, screen grabs from the same episode, I think. you're not missing too much, but that is weird.

Team Groovy clearly did not deserve the win. The challenge was about what Al would do, and Al would not do a song about Donald Trump, nor would he even touch Uptown Funk unless he had the best idea ever for it. It was only surprising because it was what Al would never do. Also, how could you not know Thinking Out Loud? It was and still is everywhere.

They're showing up for me. @Katrina: I agree, but there's nothing we can do. It was nice working with you guys.

The fact the song has been parodied before and yet we still won means a lot, doesn't it?

it wasn't even that political. I mean Trump, as a real-life character, isn't even that political for someone running for president. he is a joke. he is the perfect balance of political and apolitical while also being topical and wide-ranging.

'''Thinking Out Loud" has topped the charts in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Portugal, Denmark, South Africa and the United Kingdom, while reaching the top ten in several other countries including the United States, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Norway, Czech Republic, Belgium, Spain, France, Poland and Austria.''

I've heard Thinking Out Loud WAY more times than Uptown Funk _{(I'm really sick of Ed Sheeran.)}

I'm so upset. Donald Trump was a dumbass parody target. You could have done much better. It is an insult to everyone involved that Team Groovy's song won.
