I received an error message after sending the second message. It informed me that I had actually sent an e-mail to www.cleveland.com, which is in no way affiliated with The Plain Dealer. I then sent an e-mail to the head editor, but I have yet to hear back from him.
Oy vey! What is wrong with people?? Every time a parody song is on a share-filing service, ignorant people like this automatically assume it's Al. That's bad enough. Now we have someone dissing Al for writing a song he didn't write?? This does not make this Al fan very happy!

Also, for anyone who doesn't know, the song was by Bob Rivers. Make sure to tell them that.
That's right! I wasn't sure if it was Bob Ricci or Bob Rivers. I knew it started with Bob though. It must make him upset to that they don't say its him too.
How can someone even think that song is by Al? Its so obvious that its a mix of different people singing the lines.
When I first heard it, I thought it was some kind of Canadian comedy troupe (just from the way the guy says 'One light goes oout the all go oout'. You know-with the strange accent on the 'ou' words).
Al didn't even cross my mind. I know he's capable of much better.
That's one of the coolest songs ever! "Why the Hell are they Blinking!" 
I love that line.
