You know, I was kind of surprised that the song wasn't more anti-filesharing. From the comments he's made about it, Al does seem to take a dim view of it personally, but in the song all the jokes were at the expense of the greedy rock stars and the hamfisted RIAA.

It's pretty cool. But the old record was set on the day after Nick & Mary's passing...so it's a little bittersweet. :(
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

I'm still not hearing this cheap Ba$$tard part is it after the second chours or right after it fades out? or somewhere before that the lyrics don't have it in there

Okay I've listened to this about ten times now. Seriously, the only joke I can find in it is if Al wrote this as a "Wouldn't it be funny if a bunch of artists actually banded together to write a song like this?" but other than that, the lyrics just aren't funny.

I think he would have been better off releasing White and Nerdy.  It's probably going to be recieved a lot better than this song.. this seems like a throw-away original.. not a world premiere.
Is this topic allowed to have spoilers, if that is one?

Edit: There.

Yep!

I thought that was funny, and "ya cheap bastard" at the end caught me WAAAY off-guard. Heh. I like it. :D
