Weird Al's new album Mandatory Fun is coming out tomorrow, and he's premiering 8 videos for 8 days from the album. The first one is Tacky, a parody of Pharrell's Happy, and it's cracking me up (especially the Jack Black part). :)

    Today's video is a parody of Blurred Lines by Robin Thick called Word Crimes. Unlike yesterday's, it's not live action, but it's still effective (and even though it's just animated text, it still manages to parody the original video). I love the dig at Prince (the only person who consistently turned down every one of Weird Al's parody requests over the years) and the reference to Weird Al's character in UHF. :)

    OK, Weird Al definitely kicked it up a notch for this next one: Foil, a parody of Royals by Lorde. This one's my favorite so far. Love the ending. :)
