I installed an optical drive in my computer recently, and I was playing with my old CDs, and found that Poodle Hat has a data partition, or whatever the hell you call them on CDs. On which is a 6 minute .mov file that takes up about an 8th of the disc's space, in which Al thanks the owner of the disc for buying the album "instead of downloading it like some HOOLIGAN!" And then proceeds to joke over some of his own home movies.
One of the Foo Fighter CDs (I think There Is Nothing Left to Lose in '99) had a clipped version of this video on it. (*NSFW Language)
Yeah, I agree with Weird Al, you USE the NET to find a legal way but we'll just have to wait for Roku.
weird al is a national treasure. it's insane that in his decades-long career, no one has come remotely close to matching him
The peak of a music career isn't a Grammy, it's getting parodied by Weird Al Yankovic
I just looked him up and he is, in fact, USian. I thought he was Canadian for some reason.
Weird Al and Dolly Parton must be protected at all costs.
He does feel super canadian.
