Re: Handy
Found out today that this seems to be my 5 yr old daughters favorite video. I asked her if she wants to watch or listen to weird al and she said I want to see the one where he hits his thumb. Then she wanted to watch it a few more times and then see others. Proud mommy over here

Re: Handy
I showed a 2 year old that I watch the Handy video, and he just could not stop laughing hysterically when he hit his thumb. He wanted to watch it several times.
Let me be your stripper.

Re: Handy
My 4-year-old nephew is apparently obsessed with the Handy vid right now, too. My sister says he asks to watch it at least a couple times a day, and he's working on learning all of the lyrics and dance moves.
I'm quite proud.

Re: Handy
haha why do some many children like this one the best. I think I decided that while this might objectively be the 4th best parody on the album, this is a great parody of the original. After listening to "Fancy" a bunch of times, there is a certain arrogance and ridiculous bravado in how Iggy sings the song, which I think Al copies greatly in giving a handyman that same level of arrogance. I just wish plumbers were as topical as word crimes and things that are tacky. also the video could have been way better.
taste is only something if it is yours.

Re: Handy
I don't see that anyone pointed out the 27 yet... oh well it's on the door during "When your front window is busted, there's one name that's always trusted."

Re: Handy
Finally saw the Handy video now that it's on YouTube and I gotta say, I enjoyed the heck out of it. Don't know what you're all crying about 

You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?
