Personally, I would like to see Al do something else as the lead parody but still keep this on the album and instead take "Whatever You Like" off the album, which at this point is gettng a bit on the old and dated side what with being about the economy and all. But that's just me and the chances of that happening are probably pretty slim.

Well, he never did release this as a free download, right? So doesn't that mean it could still be the lead single and the album will be released as planned?

You're right. I was making a joke about a recent situation on this forum. How horrible of me.

I think it has (had?) potential to be a hit. It might not be his "best ever" but it's catchy, timely, and fun. :) Good lead parody material.

In my mind, the video I'm picturing would be compliment the song nicely, and I'm no where as creative as Al, so hopefully he still can do one, and if so, get it out super quickly while the buzz is still hot. If he can get the video out in the next day or three that would be best. I know that's ambitious, but the world moves fast, so if he wants to capitalize, he's gotta move faster. It sounds like he already has the concept for the video, so I guess it just depends how quickly he can throw a video shoot together and all that.

I'm wondering about this getting something for supplemental material (like a video) to promote the song and raise awareness to the charity. It would be costly and time consuming though :/

I would love to see a video for it because the mental images I got when listening to this, were epic! I don't know that, if after this, the song will be for the album though. It may just end up following the tracks of 'You're Pitiful' for what happened.

This is not the right place to discuss the merits of a charity. Please keep the discussion to the song and events around it. Thank you.

In that case, Dave, why don't you do something about this comment and this comment? "One of them"??

While I kinda agree, he's totally not gonna take Whatever You Like off. He said it was gonna be on there, and therefore it will be on there.

It's probably gonna have the "2nd to last song" slot, though.
