I thought it was fantastic! For me, it was non-stop laughter. I mean, I know that it drags on, but what makes the song so great is that it drags on, and a video will only amplify it's drag-on-ness. And the dubbing (is that the right word?) was REALLY good. I thought the visuals were really funny, too. Like Al's cousin Larry and the bunny slippers really cracked me up. The facial expression had great detail. After a while I began to forget the things I thought was funny. The only thing I didn't like was the girl on the voice box. I did not imagine her like that at all.

How did the bunny slippers crack you up? You already heard that line countless times?

I think this video would have been a LOT funnier if I had never heard the song before.

And even then, you'd be laughing at the lyrics you were hearing, not the animation.

I was just using that as an example... it was so funny I forgot what I was laughing at initially :P But I really do think the visuals added to it.

I was disappointed with it. It was good, it just could have been better.

For some reason Al's myspace page won't load up! Must be a lot of people on it. Can some please post some screenshots?

Aw, come on, guys. It was not up to the regular Weird Al quality, but it did justice to the song and it looked beautiful. I don't think it's fair to be too hard on it.

I too am disappointed. Other than W&N, why is all of the other videos frakkin' animated? It's like Al doesn't want to do them, and he's farming out his stuff to Flash animators. I don't like it. Nope, don't like it at all.

If I want to see cheap Flash animation, I can go to Youtube or any 7th grader's computer. With Al, I want quality! He rose the bar with superb writing, follow it through until the end!
I hate spelling errors so much. You mix up two letters and your whole post is urined.

I thought it was cute. Expressions were great! Larry's last name is Perkins? Anyone see what the license plate said? Bunny slippers, radio bit, and after when he looks at her...and she looks at him, was especially cute! Brownie Time! :)
