I liked it, although it may have hit a little close to home. So, although I think I've heard the original, I try to download the original to see. Of course, I tried to find "riding dirty" with a g. Then I realize I was just too white and nerdy.

Good song, but the album it's off isn't his best work.

Haha, saw this about a week ago and it's better than the original. Mainstream hip-hop has turned to shit, but that's another topic. Weird Al is great though.

Yes, that was Donny Osmond in the video. (he must have a good sense of humor, too)
I chuckle every time I see this video and thank Weird Al for being one of the argyle wearing pocket protector Kings of All White Nerdy Guys, The Dweeb Supreme!

This guy has been cracking me up for 20 years. The funny thing is he's outlasted almost everyone he's parodied over the years.

Weird Al is pure comic genius. And has guts....the 'feud' with Coolio over his parody of Gangsta Paradise(Coolio, someone I usually think of as pretty smart took over the top offense at the parody, and Weird Al apologized; Coolio never acknowledged the apology.) Madonna wasn't real thrilled with his parody, 'Like a Surgeon', either. Tough noogies, people....he's put you in your place.
Oh, and Donny Osmond has only gotten hotter as he's aged. Damn, he's a grandpa!! Ohmygod....I said Donny Osmond is hot!?!?

Weird Al is the best. Not only does he parody songs for a living, but he was validictorian of his high school, and i believe he has a degree in architecture.
