    I hope to hell some of you are Weird Al fans. He's got his new album Mandatory Fun out, and he's releasing a new video every day for 8 days... this is day 4. Each day, he seems to give a different video site a one-day exclusive, so you have to find them (or wait for someone to post like this). If you've been in a cave and missed them, try these:

    Day 1: Tacky:
    Day 2: Word Crimes:
    Day 3: Foil:
    Day 4: Handy: http://smarturl.it/HandyVid (not on youtube yet)

    In this day where anyone with a video camera can make a cover or satirize a song, Weird Al is still THE genius at this.

    Ok, I didn't expect it to inline the video like that... killed the formatting a bit, but anyway... watch em!

    Also, I think he has said this is going to be his last full album, he will only be doing singles going forward.

    I've heard this before about this album, and last album... I'll believe it when I see it. Seems like he's still got some album marketing ideas left.

    My worry is that, if he does this, then that'll be the end of songs like "Frank's 2000-inch TV", etc. He'll be stuck only doing parodies.

    My favorite part of "Tacky" is Jack Black.

    Weird Al is an evil genius. From WAY back. His first album was 1983, the year I was born.

    He is just as good live as he is recorded. Awesome performance on Conan.

    Is it bad that I really hate most of the songs that Weird Al's music is based on? I love his music though.
