Title: Weird Al's "Mandatory Fun"
Post by: Glitch Girl on July 15, 2014, 04:11:33 PM
New album, which means new videos, and he's releasing one a day over the next week or so.  The first two are up and you can view "Tacky" and "Word Crimes" (and soon, the rest) here:

I'll try to work Word Crimes into class next semester.  I'm really excited to see what the next 6 videos will be.

Haha, these are awesome!  Yeah, DM, I'm totally going to use "Word Crimes" in Comp. somehow! :thumbup:  My favorite so far is DEFINITELY "Tacky."

It surprised the heck out of me!  Sadly, all I could think of was my father... :P

"Handy" is now up and the first of the new songs whose source material I am not familiar with ("Fancy" by Iggy Azalea).  Enjoy!

EDIT:
And now the Sports song, in which Al writes a fight song.  :)

I keep seeing Amanda Palmer share and promote this on FB. Wish my connection was worthy enough to give some of it a listen (or any of the umpteen sat radio channels I pay for played some of it?). Nice to see the old wild man is still rolling up hill.
