Doesn't bother me that much. We'll still get 5 more surprises on the album, and we get to enjoy the Gaga parody while we wait.

Which, truth be told, is an excellent parody!

It's situations like this that prove Al needs to go directly to the artist, not through a middleman. He obviously doesn't have qualms about releasing things without permission anymore, just not for profit

True. I'm sure he did all he could. Just I gotta think he knows someone who knows someone who knows Lady Gaga well enough to give her a message to call Al Yankovic regarding the rejected parody idea because he sincerely wants to know why you said no, or sincerely wants to make sure you aren't offended, or something.

Probably 99% of the time going through a middleman is fine, but it's not the first time he's gone through a middleman on high profile songs and got burnt so I guess I kind of thought he'd have a plan B.

Al's "GAGA UPDATE" headline is currently one of the top trending phrases on Twitter right now.

See, the system works.

The real winner: HRC. They got my donation today, and they'll end up getting more when I purchase the album. (And I'm fine with that.)

Fine. I'm glad that Al got his permission because he worked so hard on putting this thing together. Nice to know of the process he went through. Yeah, if I was that manager, I would be fearing for my job security. Jon, I'm not wasting any more comments on you. If you want to continue your crap, you can just argue with yourself. I support Al. I will not be buying the single or the video, so money doesn't expressly go to them. I will buy the album because I support Al. I'm not worried about where money goes from the tour because I'm sure that it's distributed in many segments of ways to many different people. The segment that goes to Al he can do what he wants with. It's his money. Which I pay to him. Not HRC. I just wish you knew how pathetic you sound. It's over.

Man, a lot of humans are going to be righted after this album's release!
