I was hoping someone would point that out, LOL! There is a green screen version of this song that is just Al with Donny going nuts dancing in the background. --Dan
They said that he improvised -everything- dancing behind Al, and Al had no idea what Mr. Osmond was doing, he only saw the reactions of the crew during recording. @16:20 Always watch the original song first; so much more impressive when you know the original before going into the parody.
Reaction channels always miss Donny Osmond dancing with Al. Donny and his sister Marie had a duo and it's essentially the whitest (respectfully) that music gets. A singing white upper middle class family.
Weird Al is a legend. I've heard they have a term in the music industry called 'the Weird Al effect' because many of the original songs he parodies spike in popularity when he releases his version. They say that having Weird Al parody your song is a sign you've made it in the industry. There's even a story about Lady Gaga tracking him down after her agent mistakenly told him he couldn't parody one of her songs to tell him 'yes please, do it!' He even does voice acting for some of the cartoons from the creators of Phineas and Ferb. He's the voice of Milo in Milo Murphy's Law and guests as a crazy UFO enthusiast in Hamster and Gretel. I've heard he's a real humble and sincere guy IRL and he really seems to be from the interviews I've seen him do. I love Black Pegasus's reaction videos. He is considerate and fair and really tries to find the positives in the music and videos he critiques. From Weird Al to Rammstein, Kansas to the Pet Shop Boys, he really seems to have eclectic musical tastes and is willing to give any artist or song a chance across multiple genres.
@@kims.schinkel8212in languages where the "-ic" name ending is common it would still be pronounced "-ich". Hence the confusion for a lot of us in pronouncing Weird Al's surname,which is presumably a joke in itself ("son of Yank"? ).
@@malcolmrowe9003 As I somewhat posted above - if it's easier to remember, it's the same as Bic, as in Bic lighters, or the names Nic and Ric, including Ric Flair.
The thing with Eat it is he actually used the original dancers, location and set as the Beat it Michael Jackson video. He even worked with the producer for Beat It. he won a Grammy for the Eat it song. And Michael Jackson supported him doing the song 100%. He actually contacts the artests b4 he writes his parodies and will sometimes work with the same crews. Like Smell like Nirvana they even did it in the same HS as the Smells like Team Spirit. He's been around since the early 80's, can't believe you never saw or heard his stuff. Too funny.
MJ was so excited about this that he not only gave Weird Al permission to do the song these are the same sets that MJ used for the original video and Weird Al did the video shot for shot of the original. He had poster boards of the original video up around the set so between shots they could review to make sure things were spot on.
Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits agreed to let Weird Al do The Beverly Hillbillies theme song to money for nothing as long as he got to play as the guitar on Weird Al's track
"Tan and Dirty" another parody? hahahha!! "I think he has an album out"...ummm...yeah...like more than your favorite artists. I think it's a hard "c"...not "ch" at the end. Love the next Weird Al track..looking forward to it!!! 40!
I thank you both for bringing back classic music from my earlier years, to hear again. I really appreciate it more and feel blessed to grow up in the 70's and 80's music era! Weird Al has so many covers. But also has so many originals. One More Minute, Airline Amy, Do I Creep You Out, just to name a few. I did see him in concert in the early 90's. Just a talented artist!! God Bless us all!!!
It IS actually pronounced Yankovik. 10:30 AN album? My brother in Christ, he's got 6 PLATINUMS, one of them 2x, 4 Golds and 5 Grammys. RESPECT THE MAN.
He has parodies of Robin Thicke and Pharrell's "Blurred Lines" (Word Crimes); Lorde's "Royals" (Foil); and R. Kelly's "Trapped in the Closet" (Trapped in the Drive-thru). You can't help rolling with laughter when Weird Al puts his hilarious spin on a song.
Weird Al actually has naturally curly hair. His hair in the eat it video is his actual hair just maybe a bit styled to look more like Michael Jackson's. Also hi Wifey. You look lovely and I'm glad you enjoyed reacting to the videos. Thank you for coming to the channel to say hi to all of us.
Thank you for getting around to Weird Al. Grew up listening to him, he’s a freaking genius at this. Thanks for what you do, you keep hermits everywhere company. May your views and likes always be equal.
Weird Al Yankovic has many albums. 14 studio releases and several greatest hits compilations and remix albums. His name is Yank-O-Vick when it comes to how it is pronounced. He has done 2 Star Wars parody songs. 1. Yoda (From the Album Dare To Be Stupid) 2. The Saga Begins (From the Album Running With Scissors). More of his songs to react too... 1. Fat 2. Like A Surgeon 3. Living With A Hernia 4. Smells Like Nirvana 5. All About the Pentiums 6. Tacky 7. Foil 8. Gump 9. Dare To Be Stupid 10. I Lost On Jeopardy 11. My Bologna 12. The Bedrock Anthem 13. Trapped in the Drive-Thru 14. Another One Rides The Bus 15. One More Minute 16. Perform This Way 17. Party In The CIA 18. Jurassic Park 19. Handy 20. UHF 21. Word Crimes 22. This Is The Life 23. Amish Paradise These are the ones with videos (officially). There are some that were made by fans and later became official videos. 1. The Night Santa Went Crazy There are some that don't have a video (that I remember) but are well worth a reaction as well. 1. Phony Calls 2. Yoda 3. I Want A New Duck 4. Alimony 5. I Think I'm A Clone Now 6. The Acky Breaky Song 7. The Truck Driving Song 8. Couch Potato 9. I Love Rocky Road 10. The White Stuff 11. Jerry Springer 12. Since You've Been Gone I hope that helps and they all go on the list.
You guys should definitely react to "Pretty Fly For A White Guy" by The Offspring (one of the biggest bands of the 90's). The music video is a classic.
I love that your lady also tangles "American Pie" and "The Saga Begins" LOL You should definitely keep sliding down the Weird Al rabbit hole :D Thanks so much for doing these reactions :D
@@billkeithchannel Oh dang... I never dreamed he'd do that. I knew Creedence Clearwater Revival sometimes sang "There's a bathroom on the right" but... Don Mclean doing that wow....
@@spineynorman7378 Kinda weird how Al has distanced himself from that album in interviews. I guess it is a fav among the faithful and not the general masses.
The discography of American singer, songwriter, musician, record producer, actor and parodist "Weird Al" Yankovic consists of fourteen studio albums, two soundtrack albums, nine compilation albums, eleven video albums, two extended plays, two box sets, forty-six singles and fifty-four music videos. Since the debut of his first comedy song in 1976, he has sold more than 12 million albums-more than any other comedy act in history-recorded more than 150 parody and original songs, and performed more than 1,000 live shows.[1][2][3] His works have earned him five Grammy Awards among sixteen nominations, along with several gold and platinum record certifications in the United States.[4][5]
While everyone mostly knows his parodies, Weird Al's original, non-parody songs are also incredibly funny and well worth a listen - One More Minute has to be one of the greatest breakup songs of all time, and no Christmas is complete without listening to Weird Al's Christmas at Ground Zero at least once!
Don McLean has accidentally started singing Weird Al’s Star Wars version of American Pie, too, Mrs Pegasus you’re totally fine when the original singer loves the parody so much he wants to sing “The Saga Begins” instead. Bad that’s not the only Star Wars parody he has!
9:51 "Smells Like Nirvana" is a spoof on "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana and the song is really good but it won't make sense unless you've already seen the music video for "Smells Like Teen Spirit"
Her face when Al said "tuna casserole" was the best part of this reaction. That was the I was raised on tuna casserole face. There is a difference face from raised on it and will vomit at thought of it. I was raised on it that it's amazing nostalgia and I love it even more. Then, it's just the typical dislike or hate. The raised on it disgust is a very identifiable face. 😂😂
10:02 the songs she is referring to are American pie by Don Maclean and The Saga Begins by Wierd Al. This was composed before the movie came out in theatres. He worked from story leaks and whatever information he could find. It basically a summary of the Phantom Menace.
5:30- too funny BP asks his wife if he's white & nerdy; Wify's eyes flutter just before her brain rolls over in her skull as it wraps itself around the concept of the question! 😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤
With Veteran's Day (Remembrance Day in Canada & other countries) Monday Nov 11 I suggest #1 "Five Finger Death Punch" - Wrong Side Of Heaven #2 "Dixie Chicks" - Travelling Soldier or #3 "Dire Straits" - Brothers In Arms . They are all excellent songs about war. Five Finger Death Punch song gives a lot information and stats. I myself was in Canadian military for 22 years ,was on standby a couple of time but never saw any action but knew some that were killed or injuried badly . The closet was being in Germany during Gulf War .
The Pegasus family might enjoy D&D, especially when the girls are over I know a lot of families with little kids who play and the kids expand their math and creativity while playing so it’s fun and educational. Also helped my autistic cousin find ways to be more social when he struggled.
A fun fact to know when weird Al Yankevich came out in the late 80s, with his so-called parody music to artist that were famous and trending. He actually was hated by artist until fans were liking the parody videos so much and talking about it that they actually realized it was a compliment. To their videos iff he did a parody videeo. Though it took a good decadefor artzt like Mi eal Jackson and Madonna. tonot feel insuulted by his parodies. But Weird Al Yakovich is a very talented lyracist especially when it comes to taking an Artist song and making it funny. The next song you should consider reacting to is an artists who really did not like his parodies of her music, and that was, Madonna's "like a Virgin" is her song which he turned into "Like a Surgeon".
Mrs. Pegasus mentioned liking the Star Wars based parody and getting it confused with the original. The original is American Pie by Don McLean. The parody is The Saga begins. Al pored over every leak, rumor, etc., he could to be able to tell most of the Episode 1 plot before it even came out. He was pretty well spot on. Don McLean's kids loved it too, and he would hear it around the house so often that there were times that he would be playing a concert and accidentally lapse into Weird Al's lyrics.
Did you know that Eddie Van Halen wrote and performed the famous guitar solo in Michael Jackson's hit song "BEAT IT". He listened to what Michael already done and within a few minutes he completely rearranged the song so that his guitar solo would fit into the whole song better and he even performed with Michael Jackson at a few local concerts in Southern California. There is a video of it here on UA-cam.
Dude and dude’s wife… this was so fun to watch. I’ve watched so many of your reactions. Different guests different music. Of course I found you because of Ren. Yes, I’m a RENagade. But I’m also 39 and grew up on weird Al. Everybody my age loved him at summer camp down at the recreational center lol. You two are great together and you should definitely feature her more on your channel.
He has two Star Wars songs, the first was "Yoda", a parody of The Kinks' "Lola" which actually came out in 1985, just after Empire Strikes Back. Then his other Star Wars song is "The Saga Begins" which is a Lyrical Adaptation of Don McLean's "American Pie" using the plot of The Phantom Menace and the fact that we already know Anakin's future via the original trilogy. They are both definitely worth a listen! Also, yeah Michael Jackson was actually a huge Weird Al fan and very honored by both "Eat It" and "Fat" so he allowed Weird Al to parody the videos and even gave him access to the same sets and directors to make it perfect.
Okay, I'm white and nerdy and proud of it! LOL I'm also a Rockstar!!! 😁 Let Wifey know she's super sweet I don't think cancel nation will come after her. However, we know now why you go to the dirty thoughts first don't we? 😳 LOL You two are two peas in a pod thinking Weird Al would go dirty with Eat It!! ROFL 😂 Awe, you guys are great! I'm looking forward to that Star Wars reaction!!! ❤❤❤
Yes MORE Weird Al!! The Star Wars song y’all were talking about is “The Saga Begins” which is a cover of Don McLeans “American Pie”. “Smells Like Nirvana” is great too!
Love your channel. I know you are and/or were into Supertramp. Loved your reaction on "The Logical Song". Now, for over 4 decades I am totally blown away by the spiritual content and atmosphere of the live version of Supertramp's "Hide In your Shell" from 'Live at Paris' (1979/1980). Especially when the song hits the 4'20'' time-stamp or around that. A MUST check out for you I think. I think you can also be blown away by that.....
Jamiroquai is a group I know you will enjoy. A Funk-HipHop-Acid Jazz-Pop-Rap infusion. Virtual Insanity, Canned Heat, Too Young to Die....26 million album sales and a Grammy. Still playing and recording 38 years after their first release.
Great suggestion... I had a chance to see them live once at Stirling Castle in Scotland. They were supporting UB40 in the early days, and the people I was with had never heard of them. So, we went to a nearby bar instead until time for the hesdline act. I could hear them from the toilet, and they sounded great. A massive regret of mine was not insisting we watch the excellent support act. 😢
Great reactions. I enjoy the range of approaches you take; sometimes it's about the performance, sometimes it's about the cultural significance, and sometimes it's just the stuff that makes you laugh.
You'd probably really appreciate Al's "Crazy about Polkas" series; in which he plays a "Polka" on his accordion, and fills it with a few lines each of multiple popular Pop songs. It's quite fun seeing what you recognize..
Donnie Osmond tells a story about telling his family that he was going to be in a weird Al video and they said absolutely not... It will be the end of your career. I believe McLean has occasionally sang the Yoda lyrics in live shows just for the fun of it.
The Eat It set looks exactly the same as MJs Beat It set because MJ green lit Weird Al's cover and approved him using the same studio where it was filmed.
10:24 "I'm sure he has an album out." >You could say that. He's been doing this since the '70s. Quoting Wikipedia: "...fourteen studio albums, two soundtrack albums, nine compilation albums, eleven video albums, two extended plays, two box sets, forty-six singles and fifty-four music videos."
15:25 "Oh la-a-ard!" Love how Al always crams in multiple layers of jokes, like a comedy lasagna. Hmm, wonder why that metaphor occurred to me, maybe the song.... 🤣
Weird Al has many albums out. I saw him live one time and he is amazing. and funny He also has some original songs that are just in the theme of a certain bands music.
Donnie Osmond dancing in the background is hilarious.
I didn’t realize that was Donnie, had to rewatch.. love it
There is a video on UA-cam of just Donny dancing to this for the full song
@@JP5683 I'll have to look up that one, he looks like he's having a blast here!
I was hoping someone would point that out, LOL! There is a green screen version of this song that is just Al with Donny going nuts dancing in the background. --Dan
Always thought it was Ray Liotta
Love Donny Osmond!!! He never takes himself too seriously and had a lot of fun with this one.
They said that he improvised -everything- dancing behind Al, and Al had no idea what Mr. Osmond was doing, he only saw the reactions of the crew during recording.
@16:20 Always watch the original song first; so much more impressive when you know the original before going into the parody.
There is a behind the scenes video and Donny danced the whole song when they filmed and he was exhausted at the end.
@@GizmoJunk He's already reacted to it, it's nearly a half hour video.
"He has an album, right?"
Hmm, looks like 14 entire studio albums, 2 EPs, 47 singles, and 54 music videos.
I laugh-choked on that one.
Doesn’t he have at least one Grammy, too?
He is also one of very few to have a song on the top 40 in 5 different decades.
@@CKaffeineIVStat 5 Grammy's!
Okay okay relax lol 🤣🤣
Dude locked the door...of a convertible with the top open. 🤣🤣🤣
Damn I love Key and Peele.
That is one of the funniest parts of the video--I can't believe how many reactors miss it!
It was cool seeing your wife react along with you.
He had a parody of "The Enpire Strikes Back" called "Yoda" using the Kinks "Lola"
He also did one on Anakin based on American Pie
The Star Wars one is called "The Saga Begins"
@mandarinlearner Yes but "Wifey" mentioned that one alreDy.
My all time fav of Al's. It was his last encore song when I saw him live. I was so hoarse by the end of the concert I couldn't even sing along.
"tan and dirty" I almost died
😂😂 me too
I thought that was perfect! Definitely need more wifey on the channel 🤣🤣
It was perfect!
Dude, if your wife calls you this, take the complement and smile for the camera.
That line was gold.
Reaction channels always miss Donny Osmond dancing with Al. Donny and his sister Marie had a duo and it's essentially the whitest (respectfully) that music gets. A singing white upper middle class family.
Probably because most of the reactors weren't even born when Donnie Osmond was most popular.
Yeah but why would he know who they are?
They were the epitome of Morman as well. I used to watch their verity show in the 70's. Still remember the Star Wars skit.. Marie made a Hot Leia😊
He's actually funny in this video, Donnie Osmond ❤
they miss Seth Green too

The bootleg VHS tape of Star Wars Holiday Special! Nerdy if you know what that is and why its a secret. 😅

And he came up with Fat being a sequel and called Al before he had the idea!
Al told Adam Reader that the deal was after the shoot his team had to pay for the demolition of the sets since that was being delayed by their use.

The fact that he got Donny Osmund to be in it was hilarious
From what I understand, Donny O was very willing to do the video. He supposedly already had his dance choreographed before they started shooting.
He got Drew Carrey as well for "All about the Pentiums"
Weird Al Yankovic has many albums. 14 studio releases and several greatest hits compilations and remix albums.
His name is Yank-O-Vick when it comes to how it is pronounced.
He has done 2 Star Wars parody songs.

The Pegasus family might enjoy D&D, especially when the girls are over I know a lot of families with little kids who play and the kids expand their math and creativity while playing so it’s fun and educational. Also helped my autistic cousin find ways to be more social when he struggled.
I Grew Up In The 90's And Weird Al💯🐐💯 Was Hilariously Humongous On MTV📺👀!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣!!! Back Then!!
I'm Definitely White And Nerdy!!!🎶🤣🤣💯
"you're tan and dirty" OMG i almost lost it laughing!!
nuQ'neH! Qa'pla ja'wHI! (
A fun fact to know when weird Al Yankevich came out in the late 80s, with his so-called parody music to artist that were famous and trending. He actually was hated by artist until fans were liking the parody videos so much and talking about it that they actually realized it was a compliment. To their videos iff he did a parody videeo. Though it took a good decadefor artzt like Mi eal Jackson and Madonna. tonot feel insuulted by his parodies. But Weird Al Yakovich is a very talented lyracist especially when it comes to taking an Artist song and making it funny. The next song you should consider reacting to is an artists who really did not like his parodies of her music, and that was, Madonna's "like a Virgin" is her song which he turned into "Like a Surgeon".
Mrs. Pegasus mentioned liking the Star Wars based parody and getting it confused with the original. The original is American Pie by Don McLean. The parody is The Saga begins. Al pored over every leak, rumor, etc., he could to be able to tell most of the Episode 1 plot before it even came out. He was pretty well spot on. Don McLean's kids loved it too, and he would hear it around the house so often that there were times that he would be playing a concert and accidentally lapse into Weird Al's lyrics.
Can we give weird owls some props for his rapping skills
LOVE WIERD AL!!! He has 2 Star Wars songs, one from the 80s, and the other one was when the Phantom Menace came out
Did you know that Eddie Van Halen wrote and performed the famous guitar solo in Michael Jackson's hit song "BEAT IT". He listened to what Michael already done and within a few minutes he completely rearranged the song so that his guitar solo would fit into the whole song better and he even performed with Michael Jackson at a few local concerts in Southern California. There is a video of it here on UA-cam.
I've seen him do this live a couple times. He straight up comes out on stage on the Segway. It's fantastic.
Dude and dude’s wife… this was so fun to watch. I’ve watched so many of your reactions. Different guests different music. Of course I found you because of Ren. Yes, I’m a RENagade. But I’m also 39 and grew up on weird Al. Everybody my age loved him at summer camp down at the recreational center lol. You two are great together and you should definitely feature her more on your channel.
He has two Star Wars songs, the first was "Yoda", a parody of The Kinks' "Lola" which actually came out in 1985, just after Empire Strikes Back. Then his other Star Wars song is "The Saga Begins" which is a Lyrical Adaptation of Don McLean's "American Pie" using the plot of The Phantom Menace and the fact that we already know Anakin's future via the original trilogy. They are both definitely worth a listen!
Also, yeah Michael Jackson was actually a huge Weird Al fan and very honored by both "Eat It" and "Fat" so he allowed Weird Al to parody the videos and even gave him access to the same sets and directors to make it perfect.
You should react to "big bad John" by Jimmy Dean. I think you would enjoy it, it's similar to the Edmond Fitzgerald plot in how it tells a story
Hi to your wife, it's great to see you on
You took the words right out of my mouth when you brought up Revenge of the Nerds 😂😂
You should check out 'Trapped in the Drive thru' , 'Word Crimes ', Livin' with a hernia', 'Foil', and so many more from Weird Al
Keep her coming on the channel. She cracks me up and the interaction is so genuine. Love all the reactions though
that's why we love Alfred. he's a parody genius, and a master of lyrics
Mrs Pegasus is a real beauty. You should put her on more regularly.
Okay, I'm white and nerdy and proud of it! LOL I'm also a Rockstar!!! 😁 Let Wifey know she's super sweet I don't think cancel nation will come after her. However, we know now why you go to the dirty thoughts first don't we? 😳 LOL You two are two peas in a pod thinking Weird Al would go dirty with Eat It!! ROFL 😂 Awe, you guys are great! I'm looking forward to that Star Wars reaction!!! ❤❤❤
Donny Osmond dancing in the background is show stealing
Yes MORE Weird Al!! The Star Wars song y’all were talking about is “The Saga Begins” which is a cover of Don McLeans “American Pie”. “Smells Like Nirvana” is great too!
Love your channel. I know you are and/or were into Supertramp. Loved your reaction on "The Logical Song".
Now, for over 4 decades I am totally blown away by the spiritual content and atmosphere of the live version of Supertramp's "Hide In your Shell" from 'Live at Paris' (1979/1980). Especially when the song hits the 4'20'' time-stamp or around that.
A MUST check out for you I think. I think you can also be blown away by that.....
You two are adorable
in the Eat It Video, Michel Jackson Personally worked with Weird Al in the chorography which is why it looks so good
Wifey aka " Lady Pegasus" or "Golden Pegasus"
Jamiroquai is a group I know you will enjoy. A Funk-HipHop-Acid Jazz-Pop-Rap infusion. Virtual Insanity, Canned Heat, Too Young to Die....26 million album sales and a Grammy. Still playing and recording 38 years after their first release.
Great suggestion... I had a chance to see them live once at Stirling Castle in Scotland. They were supporting UB40 in the early days, and the people I was with had never heard of them. So, we went to a nearby bar instead until time for the hesdline act. I could hear them from the toilet, and they sounded great. A massive regret of mine was not insisting we watch the excellent support act. 😢
Great reactions. I enjoy the range of approaches you take; sometimes it's about the performance, sometimes it's about the cultural significance, and sometimes it's just the stuff that makes you laugh.
You absolutely have to do Weird Al's "It's All About My Pentiums"!....It's sooo good!
You'd probably really appreciate Al's "Crazy about Polkas" series; in which he plays a "Polka" on his accordion, and fills it with a few lines each of multiple popular Pop songs. It's quite fun seeing what you recognize..
He has two Star Wars songs, Yoda (parody of Lola) and The Saga Begins (parody of American Pie). He like to do both as his concert encore.
Donnie Osmond tells a story about telling his family that he was going to be in a weird Al video and they said absolutely not... It will be the end of your career.
I believe McLean has occasionally sang the Yoda lyrics in live shows just for the fun of it.
Why would he sing yoda
I love how you always do your entry! I sometimes sing your jingle lol-- and people look weird at me- it is part of your channel, Please do not change.
Weird Al has 13 studio albums, several of which have gone Platinum
She is adorable. We need to see more of your wife.
Love to see you with the wifey❤️❤️❤️. Weird Al is weird 🤣🤣🤣. Blessings you two❤️❤️❤️ Gmaw👵🏼
The Eat It set looks exactly the same as MJs Beat It set because MJ green lit Weird Al's cover and approved him using the same studio where it was filmed.
Reactors ALWAYS overlook Star Wars Kid with the light saber. He was an OG back in 05’
I know! They recognize him even less than Donnie! And Seth Green! Lol
Your wife is beautiful, it was fun watching her react to Weird Al.
You know that Eddie Van Halen wrote and performed the famous guitar solo in J
Donnie Osmand FTW!! The whitest man in America!! lol
10:24 "I'm sure he has an album out."
>You could say that. He's been doing this since the '70s. Quoting Wikipedia:
"...fourteen studio albums, two soundtrack albums, nine compilation albums, eleven video albums, two extended plays, two box sets, forty-six singles and fifty-four music videos."
Al has several albums and has won multiple Grammy awards over the last 40+ years.
15:25 "Oh la-a-ard!" Love how Al always crams in multiple layers of jokes, like a comedy lasagna. Hmm, wonder why that metaphor occurred to me, maybe the song.... 🤣
Monty Python and the search for the Holy Grail, if you do movie reactions, its just plain fun! Tis but a scratch!!!
Weird Al has many albums out. I saw him live one time and he is amazing. and funny He also has some original songs that are just in the theme of a certain bands music.
It's understandable if you confuse BDSM with D&D. Both of them generally would have a dungeon master, after all.
"Another One Rides the Bus", where it all started.
"Rice, Rice, Baby"
"I Love Rocky Road"
Keep this train rolling!!
Saga is worth it!! Looking forward to it!
Wierd Al actually has 14 albums out there for you to dive into
I'm screaming this as loud as I can😂 yes start a movie reaction channel❤
