Yeah, since everyone else is comparing him to Weird Al, I'll fall in and do it too. The thing is that Weird Al (as quoted from a documentary I recently listened to) always had permission (after he got famous) from the original artist to do his parodies, and it was seen as a badge of achievement and honor to be parodied by him, except for the song "Amish Paradise", where the original artist revoked his permission, but then reinstated it, and then, after multiple yes', Michael Jackson straight up refused his permission to parody one of his songs about race. But anyway, I don't know for sure, but I believe that in the pre-internet and pre-streaming days of AOL, Dial-up Internet, and Napster/Limewire/FrostWire, and especially RUclips Music, it was most probably an honor for anyone in another state to have even heard of you as a country music artist, much less expressed an interest in your work. And while I don't know for sure, I imagine that Cletus T. Judd did much the same as Weird Al Yankovic, and not only asked the original artist for their permission to parody their work, but also the original songwriter and record label if only for legal reasons. Personally, as a wannabe parody artist, I would consider this particular song as fair game for the taking. However, unlike Weird Al, I would never be so tasteless as to even consider making a parody of "where were you when the world stopped turning", "letters from home", "Angel Flight", "This is my last call", "Officer Down", or anything else like that. I'd return to my original "broke folk" status before I ever even considered poking fun at the suffering of others or the honored dead, like Al wanted to do with one of Michael Jackson's songs, but was refused permission by Michael Jackson himself!
I met Cledus and the Iron Sheik in a bar outside of Fayetteville Ga once and we proceeded to get three sheets to the wind . I came out of there with two autographed pics of Cledus and the sheik having me in a headlock lol . God Bless the US and Much Love
The commentary for this was hilarious! When Cledus T. and Trace were on set. Trace said that Cletus T. was a scaredy cat because of how he ran from him when he made him ``dance''. I thought that was funny when I was 12. Cledus T. is awesome!
I like how Cletus sometimes gets the artists he's making fun of to participate in his videos. I wish Weird Al would do that. I'm also real impressed how Cledus makes his voice sound exactly like Trace when singing the verses.
I used to wait for each light bulb to go out before I actually went out and bought bulbs. I'd use flashlights most of the time or switch bulbs around from one room to the other.
I set at a Hooters bar talking to Cledus and watching a game on tv had no idea who he was. When some people recognized him and started bothering him told he enjoyed the company and left I didn't blame him very down to earth person
They showed us this video on the first day of school when I was getting my degree in industrial maintenance and said this is the wrong way to do wiring lol
it was quite amazing and an honor to see him and his band rehearse in a bar my dad owned in Madison, TN. (1996) i will never forget it. super nice guy and of course very funny. when they did this song i couldn’t contain myself, along with every other song they rehearsed.
Hilarious, yes, but very well done and highly clever. This was well thought out and no doubt by someone intelligent and has an appreciation for the nuances of humor and wit.
@@mastrblckhwk not as rare anymore; I see former Amish people all the time. In fact today I saw Ada from Former Amish Reunion. There’s also the Mission to Amish People that runs a food store in the Ashland Ohio area.
Freaking Absolutely Awesome. Love this. This old House keeps falling apart , love this. House looks like where the Amish leave I love this , EVERY light in the house is blown , damn I been there sitting in the dark. LMAO I love this.
comettamer You know how Wierd Al does parodies with food themes( Eat It, Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch etc). Well imagine Cledus and Wierd Al parodying The Tractor's" Baby Likes to Rock It" with " Baby Likes To Cook It with Gravy Train" . That would be hilarious, don't are who y'ar
And Cledus loves getting the original Artist in the video too. So Cledus and weird al + cledus = My dog eats chicken gravy train. Cledus gonna sing Big and Rich's part, Weird Al gonna do the rap of Cowboy Troy's part. Big and Rich, Possibly Cowboy Troy gonna just be looking like wtf.
This is the exact shit that I love. Weird Al was my favorite artist back in the day. Eye makeup funny lyrics for every song you can imagine maybe someday I'll make a video.
I was just wondering what Trace Adkins would've thought about this & right at the end was there😆This goes to show that Mr. Adkins has a definite sense of humor 😆
I have loved cledus since I was like 19
Seeing Cledus imitate Trace dancing is damn funny. Trace was a good sport to appear with Cledus.

Nobody makes fun of people in music like cledus t. He is hilariously 😂.i❤a lot of his songs and videos.
Trace Atkins is awesome my mother met him at the airport in 1998 and said he was as kind and polite as can be.
as a kid Cledus T Judd was my favorite singer. Now 23, I can say that as a child, I had amazing taste!
Ditto. Remember downloading them on kazaa.
Justin Scoggins I applaud thee. I did not discover him until around 3 years ago.
Same thoughts of mine at 24 lol
Agreed me too
Yep you did 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My father was an Electrician for 46 years. Showed him this videos and he lost his Sh*t laughing. Then watched it a few more times.
"This is what you git for making fun of the way I dance!" "Sorry man." "Yeah!"
😂😂😂😂😂😂that's funny ! That argument ending part between cletus t Judd and trace adkins was hilarious funny.
I love that Trace Adkins was a part of this, he's a real Class Act!!!
IT AWESOME
It's so funny
Love trace Adkins
Was great
Trace got paid, he doesn't do anything for free
I had forgotten this video. It cracks me up. Has to watch it one more time.
I met Cledus and the Iron Sheik in a bar outside of Fayetteville Ga once and we proceeded to get three sheets to the wind . I came out of there with two autographed pics of Cledus and the sheik having me in a headlock lol . God Bless the US and Much Love

this is my all time favorite Cledus parody.
I just regained my happiness today and this was the best way to end my night 😆😅😂🙃👍 watching it for the 3rd time 😅😂😅😂
I like how Cletus sometimes gets the artists he's making fun of to participate in his videos. I wish Weird Al would do that. I'm also real impressed how Cledus makes his voice sound exactly like Trace when singing the verses.
It’s actually trace adkins in that part
That's called editing. Trace sung those parts. I oughta know he's one of my favorite country artists
@@lukehubbard6791 pretty sure that was sarcasm... Its unmistakably traces voice.. No way to fake or imitate a baritone like that
It's like acdc or twisted sister no imitation like them.
@@dark_fly_boi2098 AC/DC when? Like with Van Halen, started with a different vocalist, so...
Whatever happened to Cledus he always made me laugh
COMEBACK CLEDUS T JUDD!!! We love you ❤❤❤
Cletus quit
He just put a new album out.
Did cledus retire to become Larry the Cable Guy? They both look similar
He came back!!
He just did a collab song with Ginger Billy! "Broke ass friends"
Now this is country comedy he ranks up there with the great comedy Legends like Jerry Clower Ray Stevens Cletus t Judd is downright hilarious
3:18 that’s what you get for makin fun of the way I dance😂😂😂
Lol I love that part
Looked about right to me 🤣😂
(Laughing) Sorry man!!
Just gotta love how Trace actually cooperates in the parody of his own song XD
Thanos Atherion a couple of the original artists did for cleetus
I know right never done in history
Matthew Bailey a couple times with Weird Al dude
Toby Keith does too, in his. They're actually friends in real life.
It’s cuz he’s not an asshole plain and simple
This has cheered me up from my depression
I haven't watched that in years. I forgot just how damn funny it is !!
Hello how are you doing?
as somebody dealing with electrical issues in an old home..this is relevant.
I used to wait for each light bulb to go out before I actually went out and bought bulbs. I'd use flashlights most of the time or switch bulbs around from one room to the other.
Some songs just get you in the feels.
This is one of my favorites of Cledus, a big surprise with Trace in it! Makes it all the more better!
I love most of Cledus T. Judd's songs
Trace Adkins, with the fire extinguisher! Hilarious!!
"I was hoping maybe Trace would float me a loan".
Epic!
I set at a Hooters bar talking to Cledus and watching a game on tv had no idea who he was.
When some people recognized him and started bothering him told he enjoyed the company and left
I didn't blame him very down to earth person
They showed us this video on the first day of school when I was getting my degree in industrial maintenance and said this is the wrong way to do wiring lol
Thanks for the heads up, I was about to do this.
Well Trace does warn us at the beginning, that cledas is not a pro lol.
My son tried his hand working for an electrician but it didn't work out very well as he is colorblind
@@roserollins9471 no the red wire not the *BOOM*
I love how Barry (Cledus) used his natural singin' voice in this 1. God bless!
it was quite amazing and an honor to see him and his band rehearse in a bar my dad owned in Madison, TN. (1996) i will never forget it. super nice guy and of course very funny. when they did this song i couldn’t contain myself, along with every other song they rehearsed.
For whatever reason when I'm feeling low this song pick me up
Every light on my dash is on
Love the Trace Adkins disclaimer.
this song fits my life at home right now lol got like 4 light bulbs out 😂😂❤
I feel like this song is more relatable than it's supposed to be.
I’m so glad I found this video because it’s been years since I’ve seen it.
Thank you, OMGosh thank you I'm going to watch again .
I hope Trace learned his lesson about leaving all the lights on...
Cledus got the dance right on the 💰. I ❤ his videos and 🎶 .
Love me some Cletus!!!!
South Forever!!
O.M.G I'm crying 🤣🤣🤣
The Clampetts 😂😭
Hey how are you doing today?
RIP Kent .....we're still listening 🤍
Cledus T. Judd is a funny comedy. Love the way he redone all the songs & videos he done
Cletus can actually sing. I saw him in concert and he sang a song that he wrote and was stolen from him.
What song was stolen from him?
Hilarious, yes, but very well done and highly clever. This was well thought out and no doubt by someone intelligent and has an appreciation for the nuances of humor and wit.
Watching in 2020 during the middle of this pandemic
At least I'm not the only one
Lesile priddy love 😍 you ko love 😍 you
I was an electricians apprentice. Can't tell ya how many times I've seen stuff like that.
*Moves 1 wire* legal murder
The ending gets me rolling every time.
cledus t judd is awesome
I was Amish, so this had me chuckling!
How do you have access to the internet 🧐
@@zhardin3652 it’s called satellites 🛰️

David Rice amen!
And Cledus loves getting the original Artist in the video too.

Cledus,Where have you been? You are darn weird.
Hello how are you doing today?
I forgot how off-key Cledus sang this one, but that's the thing that makes it so charming and memorable. LOVE YOU CLEDUS!!!
This is the only spoof song that actually featured the artist that made the song it was based on that I’m aware of and it’s hilarious!!! 😂😂😂
Love it
I like the songs
