World of Weird Al Yankovic

The term "lead single" has nothing to do with being the first track on the CD anyways

Yep. Compared to most of the stuff you hear in, well, anything nowadays, bastard is pretty darn mild.

I know I was just clearing it up for the cat that thought DDTS was going to be the first track on the album

I hope he starts putting more words like that in his songs. I'm glad every song is a little more edgy. Doesn't bother me at all. But I get paid to curse onstage in songs.

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

I was kidding. Geez.......

(to self) Sigh. Yet another forum people can't take a joke on, surprisingly for a comedian's fan site.

I though that since 9:00pm Aug 21st - 12:00 am Aug 23rd is 27 hours so I`m going to listen to the song 27 before midnight.

Right now I have 21.

Well I think this was a wonderful marketing tool to create some buzz for Al. It almost seems like he knew he was going to do this when he decided to join myspace. The song does for some reason seems like it will be in the back half of the tracklist for the new album...just a weird feeling I have. I upgraded my copy to the higher quality one available now...even more impressive! I sang We Are The World in 6th grade choir when that song was new and this seems like a fantastic style parody. I am surprised there wasn't some kind of gimmick at the end of the song like some weird error message that appears on your screen after you have completed the download as a great sight gag. "Didn't You Listen..Don't Download this Song..this song will self-destruct in 27 seconds" maybe that is a bit much but too funny for the unsuspecting person.

It actually does sound like a good song to end the album with. I have a feeling it'll be track 12.

There have been people who've expressed that sentiment and weren't kidding. So don't worry about it . You didn't start anything
