World of Weird Al Yankovic

A new single will be released Friday!!!

Super excited for this. It's been Far to long since I've been able to torture my wife and kids by playing new "Weird Al" music on a loop for hours. I bet they're gonna love it!

Anyone got any pre release info?

I'm pretty sure Bermuda does. I'm also pretty sure he's not telling.

So are we thinking this will be a parody, an original, or a polka?

Yep I does.

I know that you will LOVE it!

I was the guy that got "Handy" right 10 years ago on this message board. I got a lot of kudos once it was realized true. However, at that time, I knew the name of the original was "Fancy", so it was much easier to guess. I don't know current music, but I just looked at the top 100 Billboard and noticed a song by two stars (Taylor Swift and Post Malone). It is called "Fortnight". Al has already done a TS song and Fortnite (the game) is a bit old now, so I doubt this will be correct, but I'm throwing it out there for a miraculous lottery pick. Good luck to me!

I have no doubt!

So will this be available at 12am Friday morning, or later in the day? Where do we go to get it? IS IT FRIDAY YET??

I have heard a bit of it!

Spoiler:

I looked it up on the New Zealand iTunes and listened to the preview clip. It's called "Polkamania!" (I am forever going to confuse that title with Polkarama) It appears to medley of big hits from the past ten years or so. Oldest song heard in the clip was Adele's Hello from 2015, while the newest so far was Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo from last year (though I wouldn't be surprised if there's something a little newer in there as well).

Samsonite. I was way off!
