The RIAA sucks.

Just wait until next week and buy the CD.

In keeping with Al's tradition of staying on the cutting edge of music technology, the CD will also be a DVD, with lyrics, karaoke, and music videos on the other side of the disk.

And that line is a mistake.  The RIAA does not own any copyrights.  They are simply the ombudsmen use when there is a copyright infringement going on.  Much like how the ACLU itself is not involved in correcting civil rights violations, but they are involved in protecting people who's rights have been violated.

I wasn't talking about the Song though, I was talking specifically about the Music Video (Which is Hilarious).  Unfortunately I guess YouTube took that video down.

Anyway, there are still plenty of them going around on YouTube that have yet to be caught, so hurry up and check them out

I'm all for the high-tech Weird Al, but I sorta miss the low-tech Weird Al, to wit,
Another One Rides the Bus--
Weird Al: vocals, accordion
Bermuda Schwartz: accordion case percussion

How about the original "My Bologna", where he got the echo effect by recording it in the bathroom?  8)

A great parody of a great song.

One of the finest moments in rock parody history!
:)
Dog Feiger of The Knack loved it!
Dr. Demento was sort of Weird Al's Col. Tom Parker.  That's where I first started hearing "Weird Al."  I didn't even know his last name was Yankovic until he broke big with "Eat It" in '83!
One of my favorites they never play anymore is "I Love Rocky Road," his take off on Joan Jett. 

Prince wouldn't let Weird Al do spoffs on his songs.  Prince took himself waaaay to seriously.  I have a lot of respect for Prince as a musician and a producer, but by '84 his act was self-parody, I mean come on!
