I'd say it's almost undoubtedly one of the 5/28 songs (Assuming Polkaface was the other). So I'd say it's more than a good possibility they just decided to run through it to see how it sounded live. Either way, I brought the old topic in the spoiler forum just so we don't get a duplicate

This album's parodies seem to have a good portion of female artists this time around. I'm feeling a little skeptical about "Part in the CIA" and "Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me," but I haven't heard either, and Al's surprised me many times before. Really looking forward to hearing "If That Isn't Love."

It's pretty awesome how basically every track on the album has a video. I mean, this is even more than SOL did!

Al broke up the format on SOL with two parodies in a row. Maybe Another Tatoo is the original and If That Isn't Love is the parody.

Another Tattoo certainly sounds more like a parody, but certainly a possibility

I'm seriously starting to doubt that WYL will have a video unless it's just an extended cut of what we saw on the big screen in concert. Maybe some of those are just the "stems" Al was talking about.

What stems was Al talking about?

I think he bought this up in the Twitter/Ustream chat from when the Craigslist single was released. He said something about his record label releasing stems for all the songs so that fans could make their own remixes.

Until I'm proven wrong, I'm going to predict/assume the following:

- "TMZ" is a parody of "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry, and was one of the parodies recorded in October (this would explain why Katy Perry is parodied AND polka'd on the same album - just like with Gaga, the polka was already recorded and this idea was too good to pass up).
- "Party In The CIA" is a parody of "Party In The USA" by Miley Cyrus, and was recorded in May alongside "Polka Face!" Based on Al's Twitter history, I'm guessing it's also the song on which Tom Kenny does a guest vocal (probably as a CIA operative or a tortured prisoner or something)
- "Another Tattoo" is a parody of "Nothin' On You" by B.O.B. featuring Bruno Mars, and was the other parody recorded in October.
- "If That Isn't Love" is one of the originals recorded in January 2010, and is the song on which Taylor Hanson plays guest keyboards.
- "Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me" is the other original recorded in January 2010, and is another epic along the lines of Albuquerque or Genius In France. And even though this rumor turned out to be fundamentally baseless, my fingers are STILL CROSSED that it's an epic Beatles pastiche every bit as technically complex as GIF or Pancreas. But if not, I'm sure it will still be incredibly awesome.

Incidentally, HA-HAW!!! I WAS RIGHT ABOUT "CNR" BEING TRACK 2 AND "CRAIGSLIST" BEING TRACK 6!!!

Okay, I've had my moment. Back to my hole in the ground...

In speaking with a band member about this song, he was asked about this song and said he didn't know what they heard, but it was not. Miley Cyrus parody.

I have a feeling that once again Fred has things the most correct. Either way, now I am totally excited, pre-ordered the thing, and it can't get here soon enough!
