Wow, this just looks like an absolute blast. And note to self, when in doubt use a U47 on EVERYTHING. -Chris

That song is definitely awesome, but I think you meant this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnCUQOT3zjU

And Weird Al comes off as way more musically knowledgeable than I would've given him credit for. But still a ton of fun. :D

Except for the things that sound better with a C12...

What a great video. Al's totally in control and focused in the studio. Seems like he's be a freaking joy to work with!

Best Weird Al lyric (original): "I'd rather rip-my-heart-right-out-of-my-ribcage-with-my-bare-hands-and-then-throw-it-on-the-floor-and-stomp-on-it-till-I-die........ then spend....one more minute.... with yoouuuuuuu"
