When do we stop calling JibJab’s crap animation and start calling it video manipulation? Great job animating that giant head on a dude who’s walking around in front of a green screen, guys.

I applaud Weird Al for breaking JibJab’s godawful cycle of repurposing public domain songs for political cartoons, but eesh, isn’t this song just a bunch of Chuck Norris jokes that have been repurposed for the Nelson Riles?

Um, just wondering … how many suspicions you had about Charles Nelson Reilly. Like, a lot? That’s kinda weird.

Also, my favorite thing about the video is the psuedo-White Stripes thing. Genius.

Typical Weird Al: fucking awesome. And boy howdy, those people at JibJab really know their shit, huh? That looked at least as cool as the song sounded.

That’s probably the best non-parody Weird Al song ever (from a purely musical perspective.)

Weird Al is an icon to all nerds, a legend. The King of Nerd! to bad the youtube user disabled the embedding.

Okay that was sweet. I love Weird Al. Very cool looking video and I laughed out loud at least three times, which is impressive for a music video.

Must be rough to be friends with a guy as cool as Weird Al.
