Anybody Heard Weird Al Yankovic's 'White & Nerdy?'

Post by Tom Olson »

I haven't heard anything by Weird Al for decades -- until today when my daughter suggested that I listen to this new song she'd just downloaded onto her iPod. The song was "White & Nerdy" which is a parody of Chamillion's "Ridin'," and it's hilarious. It gets my vote for best new recording of the year.

And the video is hilarious too, featuring Donnie Osmond and Seth Green cameos.

Stir Whip, Stir Whip, Beat, Beat Stir! Harvey Korman does a fantastic job doing the voice over for Chewbacca's mom.
