:lol: that part of the video makes a bit more sense now

i haven't seen it with the titles either....is this sequence on the VHS? I might try and track it down at the local video store, or maybe someone who has it could upload it to Youtube?

The thing about this song is how amazing it is that Al holds the final bar as long as he does. I mean, yowza. The man has incredible lung capacity.

The video definitely makes this song ten times better. I also rented "Spy Hard" before I even knew Al did the opening sequence. When I saw Al was in it (albeit briefly), I thought it would be great. Al's part was really the only funny part, though. I love this entire opening sequence, especially the big ladies swimming around.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I've heard so much about that look Al gets when his name comes up, and I've never seen the movie. Could anyone take a screenshot and post it up?

He does this really cute smirk, then nods.
Hmmm...something's gone horribly awry here...

I struggle more with the ending note on this song than I do with the run in Hardware Store.
It kills me every time, mostly because it is such a high note that he holds. I tried it an octave lower and I can almost do it.

Having not had my voice broken yet, I can hold the note. Hopefully, when it gets deep, I'll still be able to do it.

I always thought Al just looped it, until I read otherwise. The Ask Al archives are really fascinating...

the first time i heard it was when i got the ultamate video collection. Its one of my favorite songs and videos. But i dont like the movie whenever i see that its going to be on i only watch the opening part with Al.
I always try to hold the note as long as he does i used to be able to do it in almost one breath i was quite proud :D
