Same! Thank you for posting it. that was a fun hilarious song and I just imagined how excited we get when we go to stores that have so much amazing stuff and Weird AL was really REALLY excited 😂 and his musicality is pure genius. The harmonies and the melodies and the tempo GENIUS

After listening to this song I wanted to see what the original was and it turns out Al wrote this song himself. It's a completely original track!

He wanted to make a song that's too hard for him to perform live.

Of course with enough time he actually did start performing it live. Including restarting the above mentioned section if he messes it up.

That's absolutely amazing

About half of the songs on every album are completely original. He's a much better musician than one might think.

Huh. I guess I need to look into his work more than I have!

I hate Al art, it's getting everywhere

Al music is great. AI music sucks.

within the past year I have made a point whenever I mention Weird AL, I always spell his last name in all caps just to clarify.

Would you look at all that stuff

The fun is consuming guys. Isn't consumption the best? I love buying things and I love capitalism. How would I even have fun if I didn't buy things absolutely do not need but have been convinced that I do? That's where all of my dopamine comes from

I tried so hard as a kid to sing the entire list in one breath, but never made it...
