Hello,

Does anyone know if Weird Al used to make music videos the same time he released the music? In the 80's he had My Sharona, Eat it etc. I'm curious if these videos were released the same week or month as the music. I am wondering if anyone knows if Al had to wait before making the videos due to the fees for the videos since he was just launching his career. Now Al can afford 8 videos but he only used make two or three videos per year with usually only 1 or 2 being a parody.

The label would pay for the videos to promote the album and take a percentage of Als profits to pay for it
