White and Nerdy (hot new video! ;)

Weird Al's new video is on YouTube:

Purchasing a VHS bootleg of the Star Wars Holiday Special is apparently in the "nerdy" camp. Then again, so is being a Weird Al fan, I'd wager.

date Posted: Sep 22, 2006 12:29 PM Hah! This is already all over YTMND. And the song spoofed, "Ridin' Dirty" by Chamillionaire is the theme song of sorts of me and my cousin. And I never really liked rap, but it is kind of catchy!

date Posted: Sep 22, 2006 12:55 PM That was awesome! Huge Weird Al fan here! I went to a concert during his "Running With Scissors" tour and tried desperately (but unsuccessfully) to convince the lady behind me that he really was coming back on stage to perform "YODA" as an encore. She really missed out.

date Posted: Sep 25, 2006 2:59 PM That scene was totally the best part of the video. There are tons of awesome references, but that one just made my day.

date Posted: Sep 25, 2006 6:03 PM Reminds me of junior high school. They had a video dance and played "Smells like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana first...I was totally confused the entire song....then towards the end they played it again...but this time I understood the words...and hey he's got glasses..."Smells like Nirvana" by Wierd Al was a hit to me that night.

date Posted: Sep 26, 2006 3:35 PM Well, I've done that...twice. Once on VHS and once on DVD. The horrible truth is, I would still buy a legimate release.

date Posted: Oct 02, 2006 2:56 PM I don't much like rap, but I will make an exception this time. I really like this video and Weird Al, both are very funny. He can always find a way of poking fun of a subject with class. Nice to see Weird Al still around.
