Roger Johnson You know that Weird Al had a starring role in an episode of My Little Pony, right? Not just a cameo, but a full blown speaking role. mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Pinkie_Pride
I find it admirable that Al is willing to unbox his award and take the depreciation hit. I'm sure there's a collector having a fit somewhere but Grammys are meant to be played with.
Only Al would know what Grammy's were like from a few decades ago. And only he would do an unboxing video for his Grammy. He probably thought it was mandatory. It sure is a fun video.
Glad to hear the new Grammy comes pre-assembled, unlike those annoying Ikea music awards that always end up with an extra bolt after it's all put together.
You totally nailed it! That is how all those unboxing videos look. Love the jetting camera and the oversized scissors. That made me LOL, for reals. The dialogue was perfect. These things seem to follow a script as all of them use the same language. The vocal pauses and the final thank you, dope. Plus once people unbox their items they never really sound enthusiastic about it. It's always like that kind of mild disappointment that you nailed. Very Funny.
If they aren't (one of) the exact pairs of scissors he used for the "Running With Scissors" album art, they are certainly the type he modeled them after. Though, I like to think that he still has the originals from when he did the photo shoot and figured hey these are perfectly good scissors I'll keep them around.
"Throw it on the pole with all the other ones" I just love that after all these years Al still has a sense of humor. Easily the best unboxing on RUclips
Daneen Covino-Rogers Quote: Well I'd hope so. Wouldn't just continue looking for it after you find it. "Did you find your wallet?" "Yeah but I'm still looking for it. In case we're in some alternate universe or something".
That's great Al, you really deserved one. It is always nice to add another award to the pile. It does disappoint me that the record doesn't actually work, I wanted it to play Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up when I revived mine. Also, the FedEx employees near you must be better, because the guy threw it over my fence. Overall, I was underwhelmed by the experience.
Thank you for the video, I've been thinking about getting a grammy but didn't get a feel for it from reviews. Did not realize it is not a working gramophone, so I guess I will pass on starting an illustrious and award-winning music career. Hope you enjoy yours, though.
Congratulations Al! I REALLY am surprised that this didn't happen sooner (or has it?). Been a fan since 1981 and have seen so much from you that is worthy.
Love the video! Gag at the end was funny, but a comparison between the 2014 award and your previous ones could have been entertaining AND informative. :)
@@smh9902 omg i was gonna say that but say 'no thats galligher' hahaha i loved watching his shows my step dae got to meet him in person in myrtle beach SC'lucky..
You're so freaking hilarious! You've made me laugh since I was a kid and heard "My Bologna" on cassette at a friends house. Getting old is weird, but you're doing it with style - like everything else you do! You're the best Al - love ya man!
Well, I know some of them are, but sometimes they realy are at least a little bit clueless. If not on how to play the game then on the goal of the game
HAHAHA!!! That was the best flex ever at the end!!! Al, I don't know if you read these comments, but seeing you perform in SLC with my two boys in 2016 was the best moment of my life. I've been a fan since I was a kid back in the mid '80s. Staying up late on Sunday nights to listen to Dr. Demento is one of my favorite memories with my brother. Anyway, you are awesome!
Al, you've been in some subtle way making my life more enjoyable since I was listening to "Another One Rides the Bus" on the Dr. Demento show. Thank you.
Always ahead of his time! YEARSSSSSS b4 every one and their child recorded package opening. Wierd Al did it with style, wit, and something very few could ever hope to experience. What a kind mind and talent.
That's something most of the world will never get. I always find those unique things so amazing. Whether it's the Olympics, Oscars, Grammys, etc the are really special, obviously. Congrats Mr. Al, you are awesome and I'm happy for you.
Maybe... put them in a cardboard box? I don't know where you'd get one of those, though. You could create a shelf, but... WHY?? Just throw the excess in the trash and be done with it. Yes, this is a joke.
Al I just wanted to say I'm glad you got to see this day. The Grammy is so well deserved- You are the king of the absurd. I'd like to wish you & yours well. I'm grateful for the tales you tell. Through making music that breeds smiles, you've helped me through lots of sad whiles Hopefully this makes you grin and again-grats for the win! Please love yourself-it's what you're worth! Here's to the next song you rehearse. May your life be one that is oft pleased and also, thanks for voicing Cheese
CONGRATULATIONS Mr Al, Long overdue as you are Awesome and ive been watching ur vids since the first ever one you did back in the day :) Live Cool and Be Safe
You are hilarious. I love this joke unboxing like its a thing anyone could buy. The jokes are funny too. Congrats for winning it though, you deserve it.
says something when a talented person ridicules the media he uses.. and wins by genius comedic efforts. Congrats on Number Four AL...keep the hits on hits coming.
Of course this is my favorite "unboxing video." XD i was waiting to see how or if he'd tie in the fact that he had a bunch of other ones sitting there; this was really awesome! :D so cool to see you on here, Mr. Sir!
Weird Al pointing out many of my annoyances with unboxing video's. I literally don't get the appeal. I mean I like this, because I assume it's done with a thick layer of sarcasm.
Wow... now you can make jelly shaped grammy awards to all of your dinner guests... or just you... and only you... eat them all!!! Much love from Scotland land.
The end reminds me of the SNL episode where everyone has Emmys and they're using them for such things as holding ears of corn, then throwing them away when done.
Al, congratulations! You deserve all of those and more. You are the ultimate talent in the entertainment business. Thank you for your inspiration. Don't ever quit.
Absolutely love this. So many other artists out there would never do this, but unlike with Al, he has a sense of humor and deserves everything he has ever won during his long career. Hope to see him soon in 2015 live
Now watch him win an academy award for best unboxing.
Ducksquack I think Casey Neistat has that title with his Macbook Pro unboxing
Ducksquack XD that comment made my day
DarKnightofCydonia Nah man. Unboxing the iWatch and spray painting it "gold" definitely wins.
Roger Johnson You know that Weird Al had a starring role in an episode of My Little Pony, right? Not just a cameo, but a full blown speaking role.

+Ducksquack Leo would probably implode.

"The delivery guy actually rang the doorbell instead of chucking it over the fence"
Stuff like this is why i love you, Al.
that was funny lmao
Only Weird Al would do an unboxing video of a Grammy.
And only Weird Al would refer to his collection of Grammies as a "pile".
Probably.
My Grammy sometimes bakes me cookies
***** My grammy is in a box.
***** Your videos are amazing! Imo, you are one of the best flash artists.
***** He got mine too
Ba dum tsh!
ROTFLMAO!!!!😂😂😂
"Collect them all"
Al, you're the best.
I approve this message.
Unbox Therapy YESSS
Unbox Therapy THE MASTER HIMSELF
Unbox Therapy i hate you, fat fuck. Yes, fellow commenters, i am jealous that some untalented fat shit can earn money from taking things out of boxes.
ExtremoPrimo this on the other hand is great. 0.01% of the population get to do this.
Unbox Therapy meow

it was mandatory fun
Bea Stewart nah that's stupid
SensoryFour34 Honestly, unboxings are type of nerdy thing only white people do.
Drew Poole Well, maybe this will change things. It could be the beginning of a saga.
SensoryFour34 I was kinda hoping that he would eat it.
"collect them all"
I like how Weird Al has watched so many unboxing videos he can make a parody of them; literally line for line.
Glad to hear the new Grammy comes pre-assembled, unlike those annoying Ikea music awards that always end up with an extra bolt after it's all put together.
And shitty directions
I love how he handled this like literally EVERY unboxing channel on youtube. lol
Dang! I need 51615! Would you be willing to trade for a 48952?
Dane Tucker Nice Ryo avatar, btw. :)
MegaScience Thanks! : D
Hello fellow shenmue fan :)
Forklift race, anyone?
After our game of lucky hit :)

Your sarcasm fuels my life.
And along with your purchase of the foam Grammy mold, we've include a free doorstop.
How useful
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
By 9 Grammys today, get the 10th one for just one penny!
"Throw it on the pole with all the other ones" I just love that after all these years Al still has a sense of humor.
Easily the best unboxing on RUclips
The end made me laugh.
LostScarf Honestly I saw ot coming halfway through but still, it was very funny. ^^
Glad you finally got your Grammy. Must have gotten lost in the mail those three months.
JoJo Madara yup, The 2014 grammy for 2015 lost in the mail for three months... probably since 2013.
Seriously, though, you're awesome Al!
JoJo Madara he probably got it sent to his home on Maui

RedBungieAnimations Brian Regan, Epitome of Hyperbole.
This just maybe the best Unboxing of ALL TIME
Yeezus Christ and you are my man

You know you've succeeded in life when you have a Grammy pile.
I ended up here because I thought it said 2015 Granny...
LOL

this is madness
i love it
doddleoddle oh
alyankovic This is brilliant and entertaining!
***** Are you trying for a crossover?! Weird Al has mastered almost every form of entertainment, but come to think of it, that might be a new one.
***** I remember when playboy used to win Grammy's for best movie soundtrack.
Micah Philson Hmmm...Weird Al in a porno. That would be interesting to see.
Woefully underwhelming video. Weird Al is clearly funnier in his music than in person...
David Bonnardeaux I would give you a thumbs down if RUclips would let me
Just throw it on the pile with the others.
Congratulations Al! I REALLY am surprised that this didn't happen sooner (or has it?). Been a fan since 1981 and have seen so much from you that is worthy.
This is his 4th Grammy.
Stars: They're just like us, except not really.
"Collect them all", what is this, pokemon?
Yes
Thats the joke
Everybody Polkamon.
It is if you're Adele.
Love the video! Gag at the end was funny, but a comparison between the 2014 award and your previous ones could have been entertaining AND informative. :)
I was expecting him to smash it into bits with a sledge hammer for some reason...
+MadDany Do not confuse Weird Al with Gallagher.
+MadDany - or burn it on an old couch?
I expected him to toss it in a trash can.
Or put it in a hydraulic press.
@@smh9902 omg i was gonna say that but say 'no thats galligher' hahaha i loved watching his shows my step dae got to meet him in person in myrtle beach SC'lucky..
I thought your favorite number was 27.
Wait 5+1+6+15 =27
BeastOfTraal oh my fucking god
20SEPTION
Smooth Criminal_05 your pun is good, now take my like and leave
After all these years, you still think it's 27? Well think again, it's actually 9. Because 5+1+6+15 = 27 BUT, 2+7=9.
@@SkemmiesGaming Nine, nine, nine, fantastic number nine!
You're so freaking hilarious! You've made me laugh since I was a kid and heard "My Bologna" on cassette at a friends house. Getting old is weird, but you're doing it with style - like everything else you do! You're the best Al - love ya man!
BEST unboxing video on RUclips. Word.
Crimes.
I laughed through the entire video, but especially at the end. Hilarious
"Throw it on the pile of all the other ones" 10/10 Unboxing Champ
Al, you are seriously the greatest. Congratulations so much on your Grammy win. It is so very well deserved. Love the unboxing as well.
I was scared he was going to break it or something at the end, but the ending turned out brilliant. x)
This is probably the best thing ever. How did I not know about this channel till today? I'm going to spend all night watching every single video.
51615?!
Thats like my 3rd favorite grammy award number.
"Don't be stupid!"
I thought we were supposed to dare to be stupid!
Would it be stupid to dare someone to do something smart?
Congratulations! Love the ending--the very end.
steadfastcoward My comment is a reference to another quote by someone else.
This is the best Grammy unboxing I've ever seen. Also the only one. Your voice sounds much deeper away from the studio environment :)
Huh I always wondered how major awards were given out. And now I know and knowing is half the battle.
You never cease to amaze me, Al! I love your music (I have lots of your songs memorized - even "Trapped in the Drive Thru")! Keep it up! :)
Sorry Wierd Al , but Beyonce had the best comedy album of all time.
Get out of here Kanye.
51615 is a nice palindromic number.
I was surprised that he didn't notice or make anything out of the fact it was a palindrome.
He should name his grammy Bob.
Hey Al you rock! Can I have half the foam your Grammy came in? It would be like having my very own Anti-Grammy.
No, you cannot
@@jamesbeddow7393 He actually sent it to me. Thanks again Al. You still rock.
Did he actually. Can you go on Reddit to the r/weird al to prove it with a picture?
Now do a Let's Play! You can do anything, so why not that? =3
Sure, why not?
*****
It's a joke...
Souji Monaru Knowing his style, Al would LP Desert Bus
Even non-gamers can play games. In fact, that's what makes some gaming videos funny. Because they have no idea what they're doing.
Well, I know some of them are, but sometimes they realy are at least a little bit clueless. If not on how to play the game then on the goal of the game
Best unboxing video I've ever seen.
Finally a Weird Al video that's longer than me in bed
Weird Al.. you're just too great.
*_that ending tho... lmfao_*
Easily the best unboxing video I've ever seen. Also the only unboxing video I've ever seen so it wasn't really a tough win.
haha
HAHAHA!!! That was the best flex ever at the end!!! Al, I don't know if you read these comments, but seeing you perform in SLC with my two boys in 2016 was the best moment of my life. I've been a fan since I was a kid back in the mid '80s. Staying up late on Sunday nights to listen to Dr. Demento is one of my favorite memories with my brother. Anyway, you are awesome!
That Grammy foam would make some pretty sweet (albeit large) rubber stamps. I'm serious.
Much deserved Al! You've still got it - been a fan for 30 years! Don't stop doing what you do, the world is a funnier place because of your talents!
I think Al was more excited about the packaging foam-mold than the actual award.
Al, you've been in some subtle way making my life more enjoyable since I was listening to "Another One Rides the Bus" on the Dr. Demento show. Thank you.
Weird Al is one of the few people on earth who knows that fact about the 2 piece Grammy and had to deal with it lol
Always ahead of his time! YEARSSSSSS b4 every one and their child recorded package opening. Wierd Al did it with style, wit, and something very few could ever hope to experience. What a kind mind and talent.
You are a true legend! Glad you got your Grammy.
Literally the best unboxing on RUclips....including USS Flagg GiJOE air craft carrier unboxings....or...fancy accordions....great video!
153 people had to screw their Grammy together.
I wish Weird Al was my uncle. He would make family reunions so much fun.
Best unboxing video on the internet
That was awesome! This was one of my favorite unboxings on RUclips now.
BEST... UNBOXING... VIDEO... EVER!!!
Congratulations!! And thank you for including Indianapolis in the music video for "Tacky" . Glad that you liked the building too.
51615 is Al's favorite number?
5 + 16 + 1 + 5 = 27.
27 certainly comes up a lot in Weird Al Lore.
Coincidence?
yes
also, 5 + 1 + 6 + 15 = 27
That's something most of the world will never get. I always find those unique things so amazing. Whether it's the Olympics, Oscars, Grammys, etc the are really special, obviously. Congrats Mr. Al, you are awesome and I'm happy for you.
"Be careful not to cut your fingers off!"
It's dull.
Oh man, that was awesome. lol
I just watched an episode of Stargate SG1, and realized that Weird Al's speaking voice sounds just like Michael Shanks! Very cool!
my pile is getting too big. do you have an idea to store them elsewere?
Maybe... put them in a cardboard box? I don't know where you'd get one of those, though. You could create a shelf, but... WHY?? Just throw the excess in the trash and be done with it.
Yes, this is a joke.
Try storing them in the mold it saves a lot of space 😄
Zachary White
You broke the mold with that reply.
Idk it was a cringey joke lol
Zachary White
As is my life.
Yes, I just roasted myself.
Deal with it.
Al I just wanted to say
I'm glad you got to see this day.
The Grammy is so well deserved-
You are the king of the absurd.
I'd like to wish you & yours well.
I'm grateful for the tales you tell.
Through making music that breeds smiles,
you've helped me through lots of sad whiles
Hopefully this makes you grin

Please love yourself-it's what you're worth!
Here's to the next song you rehearse.
May your life be one that is oft pleased
and also, thanks for voicing Cheese
I have the sudden urge to become a delivery man.
It's a good way to describe everything that comes in a Grammy box, Not all artists show what comes in a box like that, especially with foam 😅👌🏼.
Hey Al, a 3d trapezoid is called a frustum! Get it together man!

love how he's parodying unboxing videos xD I love this man he is my childhood
When he said he was gonna unbox, I imagined he was gonna get in a ring and sit in his corner reading a novel whilst having a cuppa.

I really appreciate and enjoy all your work. look forward to seeing more of your video's. have a great day...
Good for you Al! your one of my favorite people and the best at what you do.
More celebrities need to start making unboxing videos, to show off the stuff us regular people never get.
You are hilarious. I love this joke unboxing like its a thing anyone could buy. The jokes are funny too.
Congrats for winning it though, you deserve it.

Beautiful Grammy. Good job and Congratulations, Al. I would not stack them like that. LOL.
When you rev up to full snark, you start sounding a bit like Jeff Goldblum. :)
Of course this is my favorite "unboxing video." XD i was waiting to see how or if he'd tie in the fact that he had a bunch of other ones sitting there; this was really awesome! :D so cool to see you on here, Mr. Sir!
If you've ever made an unboxing video and watch this, you'll bleed out from all the stab wounds quite quickly.
Ze Rubenator lol into knife vids are we?

I mean I like this, because I assume it's done with a thick layer of sarcasm.
Wow... now you can make jelly shaped grammy awards to all of your dinner guests... or just you... and only you... eat them all!!! Much love from Scotland land.
The end reminds me of the SNL episode where everyone has Emmys and they're using them for such things as holding ears of corn, then throwing them away when done.
