My dad sent this to my grandma because she would send everyone an email all the time. My grandma thought it was hilarious so she forwarded it to everyone.
your grandma is indomitable
😂
(-_-)
Glad your grandma has a sense of humor 😀
Mission failed successfully
When I was a kid, I wrote a fan letter to Weird Al and he answered with a full hand written reply on an oversized postcard with his picture on the other side. I have been backstage at 4 Ozzfests, and that was still the coolest interaction I've ever had with a famous person. All Hail Al.
Usually, famous people react like regular folks as long as you don't go all ga-ga.
I once met him in Vegas during one of his tours. I caught him leaving the building and immediately I asked for an autograph, but I didn’t have any paper, so this man grabbed one of his long cardboard displays, signed it and handed it to me with a laugh. One of the best experiences of my life lmao
@@spaceflight1019 Unless you're actually Lady Ga-Ga, in which case it is expected.
I got to meet Weird AL back in 2010 after a concert he's so down to earth. I am jealous though if you got to meet Ozzy he's my all-time favorite singer
13 yo in Victoria BC. Went to (another) Al concert.. he came out in his “fat” suit XD, Started off the inflation of his suit RIGHT BESIDE ME!! Cameraman snapped a pic n The show carried on.. after show, while Al’s signing autographs at the front door, he picks me out hands me the pic signed n gives the classic “knucks” XD.. still have that Polaroid.. his face half fat, tongue hangin out an all I could hear was “you ain’t fat!!”

haha funny.
Weird Al's rant about emails *has outlasted the relevance of emails.*
That is *legendary* vision.
Now it applies perfectly to social media.
@@OptimusNiaa even more then i'd like lol
This song seems to more about E-mail that is still very much used and abused by employees in corporate and academic environments. Most interdepartmental E-mail messages, especially those sent out by dippy make work middle mangers trying to improve morale are annoying, plentiful, and almost entierly useless. Don't believe me... Get a job working in a cubicle with a large company and you'll find out real fast!
@@RootBeerFlavored Are office cubicles still a thing in the US? Here in the UK we have nice open offices.
@@Julmaa87 Open offices are FAR worse than cubicles. At least cubicles give you a tiny bit of privacy and buffer from other people. Hopefully both are going to be dead soon.

I wanted to forward this to a friend, but now I'm conflicted.
😏
Jeff Christensen One of those things they saw 3 years ago? 😂
I feel you man. I felt like forward it to a few quilty ones on my what's app, but it wouldn't be the Christian thing to do.
Thats a creative way to say that this video is crap.
The RUclips algorithm will know when it’s the right time, leave it up to weird al..gorithm.
Al's original tunes never get any radio play, but they're epic. Dude's a true musician.
Sooooooo I guess this is an original...?
If not, what song is it a parody of?
Actually, he hasn't really made any "original" songs that I can think of.
I only mean "original" as in "not a parody of something else", and I am not knocking Al or his talent.
His "originals" are pretty much always style parodies. Not of a particular song, but rather of a sound a particular artist has.
This one is a parody of Meatloaf and Jim Steinman colabs, particularly from Bat out of Hell.
Particularly "Anything for Love" and even more so "Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are", despite not actually being a direct parody of either.
Put the latter into the RUclips search bar and you'll immediately hear what I mean.
@MsYogaGrrrl
Those are all style Parodies.
"Mr Frump" is a style parody of Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant". This one is really hard to miss if you've heard the original.
"One More Minute" is an obvious style parody of 50s style ballads, The Platters and "The Great Pretender" in particular, but there's a bit of Elvis in there as well.
"The Night Santa Went Crazy" is a Soul Asylum style parody that throws in a little bit of Ozzy era Black Sabbath."
"Happy Birthday" is a style parody of songwriter Tonino K, who Al is a big fan of.
They are all technically original songs, but all of Al's music parodies someone else somehow or another as far as I know.
He's really, really good at pulling off the style and sound of other artists even when he's not lampooning a particular one of their songs.
@@contrabardus I love "One More Minute", but my favorite is "Christmas At Ground Zero". Such a brilliant parody of Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" A Christmas Gift For You album.
contrabardus he actually wrote quite a few originals. Google can show you.
That awkward moment when once you finish listening to this song you want to foward it to all of your friends
Almost did!
This isn't crap.
🤣
@@BruceBanner But your friends have already seen the video 3 years ago
@@chromestarGameVid I saw it 2 years ago, and if I forward it, it is because this isn't crap.
can we get a round of applause for the backup singers? Such a great job.
This is the most inspirational rage rant I have ever heard.
Bless you, Weird Al. Saying what we all secretly think in gospel format.
Yes and it was inspired by Jim Steinman songs like Making Love Out of Nothing at All and Total Eclipse of the Heart.
Oh right. I thought it sounded a bit Meatloaf-ish. Learn something every day.
ramona leiter It starts out sounding like Jackson Browne but sure goes full Steinman by the end!
I was an idiot and thought this was a josh groban pastiche when I first heard it
(It’s actually a meat loaf parody)
“If time is so precious why you wasting mine?”
Words to live by
Just like " how can I miss you if you don't go away?"
I can imagine a church choir, full robes and all performing this.
Probably most of them are guilty of forwarding that crap🤷🏿♀️🤪
Waving candles. 😊
@thevideocloset Oh dear god, yes! Used to chat with a woman who would do this. I didn't have the heart to tell her to please stop...thankfully, she stopped on her own or my email learned to send it to my spam after the thritieth one forwarded to me.
Sounds like the choir is in there..
I once heard a convention center break into song.. Dead Puppys. Petty I have never found it on video.. ;-)
There’s not much funnier than a witty person who’s completely fed up and has to light in to somebody but managed to keep their temper just barely on a leash. This song is that exact feeling.
Funny enough, I had to do that about a decade ago after being spammed by a fried who had moved onto her *THIRD* Facebook game in two months. I had to tell her "If you can, for the love of everything we hold dear, use the 'reply to friends' button!"
(Unfortunately, back then, when most of these games first came out, they wouldn't have that button, knowing full well that the 'send to all' button was how they got the game spread around.)
"and I highly doubt some dead girl's gonna killme if I don't pass your letter aloooooooooong" lol I love that
Gotta love Weird Al. He is not only funny but he has an amazing voice. The music is actually very good.
He's a professional musician/singer/songwriter.
He does! Thanks for pointing that out. He's very multi-talented.
Hasn’t he produced some hit albums as well?
This song aged like fine wine
STILL relevant TODAY...
I still like it till today
Yup, and it's still good and relevant to this day
Hell, our country is led by a bunch of people doing the damned forwarding on the authority of one who believes it!
Ahh yes, now in forms of ads, and RUclips's "related" videos.
I love how this song is very clearly about one person in particular.
The worst shit are the ones that say "Repost if you love God/your mom/your kids/your country or feel bad for people with disabilities".
Because it implies you DON'T love God, Jesus, your Mom, or care about kids with disabilities if you don't forward it. I just ignore them.
I think some people post these stuffs just to gain lots of shares and likes. It's like using the name of the Lord so that they will gain followers. If you love God, you don't need to repost post over and over, just follow his commandments and obey Him.
Ice Ramos You're right, the pages make those posts to get likes and shares. What annoys me is people actually share them instead of just ignoring them like they should.
Ice Ramos
The funniest part is that if they'd ever read Mathews, they'd know not to do that. They aren't giving glory to their God, they're giving it to themselves.
Yeah, it's a lot easier when you're a heathen; then you don't need to worry about pleasing your silly god.
After 11 years, no one has pointed out that this song is about Spam, in the style of Meatloaf? That next-level pun shows Al's true genius!
oh my God
His all time best joke might just be from a song that he'll never get to release. It's a tragedy. He wrote a version of "Live and let Die" (the Bond theme) called "Chicken pot pie"
Apparently he won't release it without Paul McCartney's approval, and being vegan, Paul couldn't quite bring himself to sign off on a song all about eating chicken
But just imagine it. You know the instrumental bit in the middle? The bit that goes "Dun-dun-dun"? Picture that bit in a song all about chicken:
"Bok-Bok-Bok! Bok-bok-bok…BOK-BOK! Bok-Bok-Bok! Bokbok-bok-Bok-BAWK"

"This song is probably one of Weird Al's best songs ever."

Your so right!!!
Yeah I honestly think this and Don’t Download This Song are his two masterpieces. Hilarious, original, brilliantly written and brutally satirical.
The man rose from the grave solely to drop that statement.
I love this guy
Did George Carlin really say that?
It's 2021 and this is still such a highly relevant song.
Blame the INTERNET.
2022 even
Listening to this in 2023
It's now late October 2023 and somehow this video is even *more* necessary than before...!
Nearly 2024
It amazes me that Weird Al Yankovic has managed to remain relevant for longer than sone of the people he's parodied
In the same vein, I think his 'I Lost On Jeopardy' outdid the Greg Kihn(?) version.
In a sadder vein, he's also outlived some of them

Weird Al is a gift to humanity.
Your 💯 right
I agree :) You see, this kind of songs is the reason i would like some of my friends were better in english. Because the humanity isn't only the U.S.A. and United Kingdom, and in the other countries everybody haven't the same ability to understand this language. :)
@@jplanqua2742 yeah, i hope someone makes some translations of these songs so more people can enjoy it
@@sashathedonut Weird Als songs are reason enough to learn English.
IMO any translation would lose so much it would not be worth it. Either from the jokes, or from the really good songwriting point of view.
That's the reason why he played Newton in ERB. They are both gifts to humanity. They are both geniuses...

My mother was forwarding me dumb crap for a long time, until, a few years ago, I forwarded this video to her whole mail list (she never figured out how to BCC) with the title "You won't believe this hilarious video".
It worked.
You can see how intelligent he is when you read/hear his lyrics. This is my favorite song.
Well this is 3 years old. Better share it.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Hahah, first time I've seen it. But then I truly am 3 years behind most of my friends. Then I have those other friends who send stuff I saw 3 years ago, when it was 3 years old.
Hell, I didn't even see keyboard cat until 2014, and by then it was 7 years old.
Well, this comment is 3 years old. Better share it.
Finally seeing this for the first time...just 3 years after you posted this comment. Is it ok to forward now? LOL
Now this comment is 6 years old. Lol
This has been up for 3 years, so I can start forwarding it now!
No it hasn't
Kaworu Nagisa Close enough.
***** I was just playing off of the "some dumb thing on RUclips everybody else already saw 3 years ago" line.
"Your quotes from George Carlin aren't really George Carlin."

...wait
i never care about the messenger until my messages never arrive or severely misunderstood.
I don't think he said those words exactly, but he did say something very much along those lines when he found those sappy e-mails with his name tagged on them.
I forget exactly how he worded it, but I'm sure it was very sweary.

@Casandshail That's what' I said

The irony of this song is overwhelming.
It's not ironic if nobody sends it to anyone. "Don't Download this Song" is ironic though because Al was offering it to download for free when it first came out.

DarthEnderX
They like Weird Al? I come to this video because I love the Alpocalypse album.
DarthEnderX So did I, I just came here to get my recent dose of Al.
DarthEnderX I was watching other Weird Al videos
I just realised I really want to see someone sing one of Weird Al's songs on X Factor or Britain's Got Talent or something.
Especially this one. Just watching them singing this with a serious expression would be great.
armish paradise please aha x
+Blade Fuller Not sure this counts, but I stood up and sang Complicated Song with 2 friends in an Applebees. I was the only one out of the three of us to sing the whole thing as my friends kept cracking up throughout the song.
+molly oldfield Would the judges recognise it as well as the talent? I think not.
lol me too
I seriously considered it... But I was thinking about doing "one more minute" or "Dare to be Stupid" at the time, since I was unaware of this particular song. I could definitely emotional about this one though.. =)
This and " don't download this song" are a perfect time capsules of internet culture of the early 2010s.
"You wouldn't steal a car"... Nope, but I would 3d print one if I could obtain the files.

That's the point of satire.

I've known about Weird Al for years but I must have missed this song somehow. This is now the anthem for my digital existence.
Yeah, me too.
Do you pay attention to his albums?
@@sha11235he doesn't make albums anymore, unfortunately
Towards the end of the song, I felt a sudden urge to pull out a lighter and wave it in the air.

That's just sad.
Hell its still releavant
Well, you know, Facebook is perhaps an american enterprise but internet is worldwide ! And... there still a lot of people out there, who can't give a sh*t about this language, they think, with reason or not, they don't need to learn it to live, so obviously, unless that song is finely translated and exported, they'll never know anything about it. And still continue to use Facebook :)
So yeah, maybe there are some english-speakers who just don't understand the song, but maybe the problem don't even pass through their mind, because feed by the others.
10 years later in the age of facebook shares from older people, toxic twitter users who spam nonsense, a trashed RUclips algorthim that does the same, and now RUclips comment section bots; this song is actually EVEN MORE RELEVANT THAN WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED 10 YEARS AGO.
"Mr. Rogers never fought the Vietcong" is my favorite Weird Al line ever
Once again, proving that Al is timeless. Share this with everyone. That'll show em!
Only Weird Al could sing "crap" in a sentimental manner.
Whomever made up the chorus, hat's off to you guys too.
Thank you Mr. Yankovic. I sent this to my Mom and she finally stopped forwarding that crap to me. 😆

How come the best parodies from Weird Al are about the simplest funniest things... Like emails or drive-throughs and crap like that. (Well there's another reason to love Weird Al people)
But this isn't a parody. At the very least, it adopts a particular music style, but it's not a parody.
Because we all relate to the message somehow.
Pepperoni Blaster 0
Ralph Anthony Espos It's called a "style parody"
The drive thru song was 10 minutes long so...
The BCC part really hits hard. In my last job HR didn't figure that out as well, they sent out a "pay stub explanation" pamphlet to our personal e-mail addresses... All in CC's. I replied them, asking to kindly use blind copy in the future because I don't want all the people in the company to know my personal e-mail and they even got offended (the reply came in the form "Okay, we won't send you stuff like that in the future" but the tone of the message was clear). I think I should've replied that I will contact GDPR office, that might scare them a bit, but I didn't think of it at the time.
When a famous singer makes a song about not forwarding stupid emails to him, its probably best if we did what the man asks.
When I was in college. there was a girl who never liked me, never talked to me unless she had to, wouldn't even look at me half the time. We got assigned to the same group project, so I had to give everybody my email. The project got done and we never spoke again.
Fast forward five years or so, and her email account got hacked somehow. I started getting floods of emails from her, offers from companies, virus links, etc. etc. So ironically, out of all the people I went to college with, I hear from the person who liked me the least the most.

I can't believe so many songs of Weird Al's like this one (especially this one) aren't massive on youtube (like 100+M views). This is honestly so good musically and so funny. Better than like 99% of the crap being release today that calls itself music.
Well... You could always forward this video to your friends.
Yes. Also his other songs like virus alert that most people never hear.
This song proves Weird Al's voice is perfect for any song with any pace.
This song may be even more relevant in 2019 than it was 2011
Not necessarily because of the forwarding emails thing, but because of people believing crazy shit they read once and liking vapid no-effort articles about self help cooking and politics,
I have a feeling that if al wrote this a little later he’d include a jab at celebrity’s using disasters to promote products as well as buzzfeed and their dumbass videos on politics (shit like questions [Minority group] have for [majority group] and the man spreading video) that just makes liberals look bad and perpetuates millennial stereotypes
I'll do you one better
Except for it's all on FB now not via email
Go ahead, they might even find it funny.

This caused one of my "friends" to no longer be my friend...And I never gave a shit in the slightest back then as I currently don't right now!
Thank you, Weird Al. You truly deserve every bit of praise you get and then some.
you can unlist the things what you dont want to see
Just because it’s recommended doesn’t mean you have to watch it. I am recommended lots of stuff,I just skip over it

2. send this video
3. wait
4. if they don't stop, SPAM THE SONG
5. Watch as they forward the song back to you.

ps ... here's a delicious Cookie Recipe for you. ;)
Directions for: Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies
INGREDIENTS
1 cup flour
1 tsp salt
½ tsp baking soda
½ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ cup butter, melted
½ cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
White sugar for rolling
A jar of your favourite jam, jelly or marmalade
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat your oven to 375F.
2. Whisk the flour, salt and baking soda together. In a separate bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, egg and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir together until smooth. Using a spoon, form 1-inch balls. Roll each in granulated white sugar then place on a baking tray. Bake for 5 minutes.
3. Gently push each cookie down with the back of a small spoon, flattening it and forming a small depression in the center. Fill the center with a small spoonful of your favourite jelly. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes or so.

This song's theme is timeless. Someone's always forwarding some mess on the internet!
I love that bait-and-switch at the start. It's like "Is...Is this a serious song by Weird A-Oh, nevermind."
this is probably the closest Weird Al has ever gotten to cursing in one of his songs
+Dart Mada Except when he said "ya cheap bastard" during the fadeout of don't download this song
So, he did NOT cuss in "Don't download this song"?
weird SAL not really no
I gotcha. I guess some people can just take it that way. It was a left-fielder to me, but I figured Weird Al knew what he was doing, being that he always has. Crud, why couldn't I have said THAT?
+Dart Mada I'm sorry, but by what standard was he not swearing in that context? He certainly wasn't using the word to refer to an illegitimate child, so I can't see how it could possibly be considered to not be a curse. Unless you mean the fact that the word simply *can* be used in other contexts, which is true for *all* curse words.
This is among his best.
I literally showed this to my mother around the time it came out, back when my family was still using AOL, and she sent EVERYONE she knew chain letters and spam like this garbage. She'd likely be sending us Minion memes to this day if she still was able to access the internet.
...She did not take kindly to the message behind this beautiful lyrics. Lol
Weird Al is such a genius. His originals are as good or better than his parodies.
We should all forward this video on Jun 27, 2014.
Why that particular date
sadlobster1 *facepalm*
sadlobster1 1:41
jcrowley1985
My apologies...but I don't understand your comment.
What am I supposed to see at 1:41
sadlobster1 this vid came out 3 years ago on that date, which is the vid says there
I have a friend, and I am reluctant to call him such, who literally doesn't talk to me but instead just shits out links over Skype.
I sent him this song.
Nothing changed.
_help_
Block him?
Cheetos Hutchens
I wish things were so black and white
+The Atomic Cherry You forgot the yellow part. you racist piece of banana

_...how fucking dare you call me a banana you piece of shit_
The Atomic Cherry
Ahhh, I didn't realize you responded to me a month ago. Ooops.
Have things settled down?
This is great! I have to forward it to everyone on my list!
Just found it! Beautifull, gonna forward this to all my friends...
I groaned with relief @3:39 that someone else in this universe knows about "Bcc".
"And your 2,000,000 loser friends all have my address 'cause you never out the way to Bcc"
OMG IM DEAD THIS IS SO RELATABLE
I resonate with this deeply
Even weird al is savage. " in what alternate reality would I care about something like that?" Pure savage.
This aged surprisingly well.
Awesome Jim Steinman style parody.
Wow, the background-choir chanting "stop forwarding that crap to me" during the outro is a sound I will never get out of my head.
No regrets.
I have a friend who kept sending me old videos on youtube that ive already seen, him dabbing, "dank" memes, all of the shit the internet is scarfing down your throat. I sent this video to him during school. He stop sending me shitty internet memes.
LOL man.
Lightbulb ~
Lightbulb guess you were luckier than The Atomic Cherry above. ;-)
Clearly the people who thumbs down this, are the people who sent me all those glitery hearts. Lol
I think they sent me the unicorns then
2019: stop DM’ing that crap to me
Remembering Jim Steinman, who Weird Al parodies in this video. He passed away on April 19th, 2021. May his memory be a blessing.
I came back for exactly the same reason. Such a brilliant writer (both of them)
This is seriously one of my favorite songs right now...
Weird Al has done some original songs over the years. :D I am old enough to remember when "Another One Rides The Bus" was released which means I've been a fan of his for a longgggg time.
Alberta Rose but.. that was a parody of another one bites the dust...
Valeas Mundum I edited it for clarity. Thanks!
"Christmas at Ground Zero" is my favorite Al original.
Another one rides the bus is a parody
Dillon Schacht I know. You need to look up how old that song is and you'll understand how long I've been a Weird Al fan. I've heard parodies, originals, interviews, shows, vaguely recall a movie (if you look at when the movie was done you'll understand why my memory is vague ;)
Want to forward this to every marketing list I never signed up for, perhaps as a 20MB gif.
If I didn't know better, I'd swear that Weird Al was channeling the late, great, song writer Jim Steinman, for this great song. Nice!
Isn’t this amazing that this song has the feel of a Steinman/Meatloaf song?
That's on purpose, it's a parody of Steinman's style. :p
Yes..exactly in the style of steinman n meatloaf
Somehow I'm only hearing this song today and when I read your comment my jaw dropped. YES! Love it.
I thought it was a parody in the style of Elton John.
This sounds absolutely nothing like a a Steinman/Meatloaf song.
A parody not of a song but a song writer, namely Jim Steinman who wrote the music for Meat Loaf's album "Bat Out of Hell" among other works.
Yeah, this song just screams Jim's style - and while Al is a very good vocalist, I'd really love to hear meat sing this song in his usual, operatic, overblown style. Wouldn't that be awesome? :-D
I thought this sounded like a Meatloaf song. I was wondering what he was parodying here.
Kind of like how Dare To Be Stupid is a parody of a whole band and not just one song?
Does anybody else think it sounds a lot like _Don't Download This Song_ ?
@@viddork I do. Both sound very similar and ballady.
"Send more top ten lists and I'll slash my wrists" 😂
Yeah, we need more bottom eleven lists in fact
