Oh wow, thats a much better version, blows away the 96kbs myspace had.

Is that swearing I detect on a Weird Al song??

Has he cracked or something??

Geez, people. It's a joke because he said it on the fadeout and you'd have to REALLY be paying attention to hear it. It's no different from when Al said "But you're just a pain in the ass" at the end of Phony Calls.

I can't believe so many people are freaking out over the use of the word "bastard."

dude, if hes releasing an original as a lead single, this album is destined to bomb in sales. i dont feel good about this one

It's not the lead single. When artist say "the first single" They mean the first track to be released on it's own to the public, not necessarily the first track on the album which is usually the case but most unlikely here.

I'm with you, Jace-- truthfully, I find it more amusing than upsetting or weird. Caught me off-guard the first time, but now I can't listen to the song without turning it up at that part out of habit.

Plus, you can't even hear it when you listen to it at a sane volume anyway, so what's the big deal? =P None of my friends at school that heard the premiere last night said they caught it until I mentioned it to them.

If this is the ALTV I think it is, wasn't he referring to the furry, four-legged kind that so happened to be onscreen when he said it? =P

The lead single is still White and Nerdy. They're filming a big spectacular video for it right now. This is simply the first song to be released to the public.

Yeah, really...as far as culturally offensive terms go, bastard is pretty mild.
