In English class we had to do a song presentation and my friend and I chose "Don't Download This Song" and opened the presentation with the question: "How many of you have downloaded songs before?".. I think we did it pretty well, I sure enjoyed it! :)
By the way, I'm trying to convince my Biology teacher to allow me to play "Pancreas" to the class! :whoot: (with lyrics and translation to Hebrew done by me XD)

Yeah, we did that presentation together!
Picking DDTD was mostly because we needed a song with a moral, and saying "downloading is wrong, give money to the artists" seemed right to us since WeirdElla actually is all-against downloading (even though the giving money part was pretty awkward - "how else can I afford another solid gold Hum-vee"? come on).

Hopefully we've created a few more Al fans with that presentation (that totally rocked, if I can say so myself).

Is there an Israeli Weird Al?

Nothing even close. The whole concept of humorous songs barely exists in Israel, and I can't say myself that I heard of a parodist who does songs over here.

לא נראה לי שמשהו מתוך ארץ נהדרת יכול לעשות דברים כמו ווירד אל. נו אופנס

See the thing is, I asked this question in English so these answers aren't helping.
