Weird Alstravaganza!
Well, after the music thingie, I ran across some vids by the venerable Weird Al. Here are three favorites three, plus a new one that may be one of his best ever...
First is the very silly Amish Paradise... I almost didn't post this one, after the news today, but it's just dang funny. Plus the story behind it, Coolio's reaction and all, is just too funny, dumb pretentious rapper :)
Next is the hilarious Bedrock Anthem, a sendup of the Red Hot Chili Peppers Give It Away. This is freakin' brilliant, and an example of the parody being better than the original.
And third is the brilliant retelling of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, to the tune of American Pie. There are so many funny little details, so watch closely, especially for Emperor Palaptine :)
Okay, and now for his newest video, from his newest CD! This is the absolutely freakin stupendous parody of Ridin'(Dirty) by Chamillionaire, which is itself a pretty decent rap song, but Al blows it out of the water:
Well, enjoy!
