    Everyone Else: So I picked up this obscure jazz record from 1940s Africa where they combined Australian didgeridoo and European classical viola over odd time signatures
    Weird Al: I bought Cars on Blu-ray for my kid 🤣

    I've been a fan of Weird Al since 1984. Weird Al is the person who got me into TMBG back in 1986 when he did an AL-TV special on MTV back when Polka Party! came out and he played the video for Put Your Hand Inside The Puppet Head, been a fan ever since!!! Weird Al and TMBG for LIFE!!!👍

    Um, I'm sure on his Biography special, he said "I have to say I'm the most visible", not "I hate to..." But, yes, he's very modest about his career. I love this clip, because you even see Al being all fanboyish about meeting a bandmate of Brian Wilson. Aww!

    • @searchingfororion
      @searchingfororion 2 года назад +1

      Something in the back of my brain makes me think that there could've/ did a collaboration. (But in a weird unofficial way.)
      They Might Be Giants had the ability to crank out so many songs that one point they actually had a "song a day" 800 number (obviously this was back in the era of landlines) and you called the *toll-free number* and listened to a brand new song every day.
      I want to point out that these were not sneak peeks to albums - TMBG just threw together a ditty recorded it and put it on the other end of the line every day, I believe it lasted for several *years*.
