In the 2015 Mandatory Fun Yoda Chant, Al added a bit from Breaking Bad, called Crapa Pelada. Tell me what the words mean. :zorro:
"First of all, I don't particularly MIND the rabid wolverine in my underwear...."

"I was not shocked by the power of the Internet," he said. "I was counting on it."

The other two sections he added for the Mandatory World Tour are from "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was) and the "Crimp" song from the British comedy act, The Mighty Boosh (I would think this would get a great response when they go to England!). All of these can be seen on YouTube. Somebody should put together a megamix of original source material of the Yoda Chant. When I watch some of these things back to back, it's pretty fun!

Well, now that the sources of the three new additions to the 2015 Mandatory Yoda Chant have been revealed, I've taken the liberty of Googling the lyrics to those songs. I then copied and pasted the new sections along with an exceprt my post in this thread about the new lyrics to the 2010 chant into the old text document of the 2003-04 PH tour Yoda chant from the old Yankovic/Yahooo parody site to construct this official updated lyric guide to the 2015 Mandatory Fun World tour Yoda chant! I also annotated this with some of the sources Helen listed previously! Now, we can all have this memorized by heart in time for whichever of Al's next shows we plan on attending! Enjoy!

I wanted to memorize the yoda chant for the next concert I go to and I was wondering if any of you had any tips on how to memorize it! Or should I just straight up listen to it a lot?

Listen to it alot. Many of us had the advantage of learning it in chunks over the years and only learning a few new things each tour. I can't imagine trying to learn it all now

Easiest way to remember is to watch it on the live DVD over and over, that's how I ended up memorizing it, there was only a bit more added for the MF tour so most of it is on the Alpocalypse Tour DVD.
