The original Newfoundland song? :huh:

Not to mention, if you had never heard "I Remember Larry" before, you'd probably think the same thing.

And yet, "Larry" is an excellent song. At least, I thought so.

I'm wondering if there is another connection between the songs being released and the photos Al posted on his Twitter.

Does anyone remember who was in the pictures with him?

Oh, ok. I didn't know that. I guess this is one of those wait and find out when you hear it situations.

Im just hoping the title and subject matter are a direct result of the inspired style parody choice. I'd think Beach Boys if Al hadn't just done Brian Wilson.

Jimmy Buffett maybe?

Are you basing that on the title alone, or is there a video still or something I haven't seen/heard?
