Can not wait for the next National treasure movie. Where we see Nicolas Cage trying to find the golden statue of the great Weird Al. And the diamond head of Tom Hanks.
Speaking as a former opera singer who has had years of training, I have to say, aside from being brilliant and hilarious, his DICTION is PERFECT. You never have trouble understanding his lyrics!
Not a music expert or anything but i’ve always liked how he clearly and properly enunciates his words as he sings. It’s a big part of his weird sound, but I love it
I appreciate this every time I listen to him as an adult. Even as a kid, there was maybe just one word per album I'd puzzle over. Good professional fun!
Speaking as a layman who formerly sang karaoke on the reg, I have to say his pronunciation is very good when singing. His lyrics are great too. I know because I could hear them!
Have you sold millions of records? Can you even sing without the aide of a computer or auto-tune? When you do a parody cover for a song do you make sure the artist gives their permissions before even writing the song? If so I apologize for what I've said. Otherwise, FUCK OFF! NORTH KOREA!
Weird Al's "old style" (glasses, mustache, facial hair) made him look older than he was. Now that he's shaved, ditched the glasses and has long hair he looks younger than he is.
Why is Weird Al not on the radio? Or if he is, he's not on enough stations. This guy is far more intelligent than 99% than most music artists today. The man is a genius.
The guy won five Grammy awards and has four gold records and six platinum records. He's been on the radio a lot. You just might not be listening to the right stations.
Where it otherwise would be incredibly cringey to go too far in either direction, Weird Al perfectly toes the line between G-rated innocent fun and seriously uncomfortable/tensive comedy, that's why he's genius!
Seriously, every aspect of this was balanced flawlessly, yet not one second of it felt censored or sensitive, just a straightforward comedic song on an objectively terrifying subject.
He is a master of that. He's helped me smile through a lot of dark times. He even sited his own music to help him when his parents died. He is THE MAN!
You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop, or Jack Frost on your windowsill. But if someone's coming down your chimney: you better load your gun and shoot to kill!
"We don't hate you, frankly, we don't even think that much about you." This right here is the single most important bit of information the average North Korean really needs to understand
For a song that was likely written in a week or two this is pretty flawlessly constructed. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since all his stuff for the last 25 years or so has been amazing quality (and improving over time) but it's still objectively impressive. The band does a nice job as well.
Patrick Stewart ok seriously I don't give a fuck on the politics or ethics of this: kick trumps ass out of the White House, and place weird al on the chair!!!
The North Koreans didn't design and build thermonuclear weapons and ICBMs in one year (no one in the history of nuclear weapons ever has), which means we can blame the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations for sticking one thumb up their asses, sucking the other, and trading thumbs for 20 years.

Actually, it was more to do with the 900-odd Minuteman III sites, four Trident subs full of Tomahawk cruise missiles and three carrier battle groups staring Kim Jong-Un in the face. Just sayin'
I Googled this song by typing "north ko' & it autofilled 'north Korea polka' and this video was the 1st suggestion. We did it people! We fixed the algorithm!
According to Al, the song is called "The North Korea Polka". He said as much when he posted the whole segment from John Oliver's YT page (which he then deleted, since the segment is unedited and has some F-Bombs...something he didn't really want on his FB page).
The Phoenix I remember the conversation, Ceej. I can't explain it, but he made the post with the full John Oliver 22 minute segment, then it was suddenly gone after comments said "why so many f-words. I can't show this to my kids". ¯\_(ツ)_/ ¯
Yes, it is a polka, note the lederhosen. And Weird Al has always asserted that the accordion is the sexiest musical instrument known to western society.
What North Korea Was Thinking: As Kim Jong Un's finger hovers over the nuclear button to launch on Guam, his top advisors tell him there is something he needs to here. He listens through the song laughing at the stupid Americans until he heard one line. "Nobody doesn't like Tom Hanks." He stands up, nods his head in agreement, and orders the immediate disarmament of all nuclear weapons.
Carmen Scialla Do you have any idea how much trouble that would save us all if that happened? If it had actually happened like that I’d vow to write in Al Yankovic on the next presidential election ballot. No...there’s gotta be more. Recommend him for the Nobel Prize. At least get him a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame if he’s not already there. I mean, I’m not really in the mood to start WWIII any more than the average person, but I don’t react well to being threatened.
weird al yankovic has always been a great and creative artist and always put a smile on my face and the harmonies and lyrics are sheer perfection and his voice is so rich and clear and solid from when he started back in the early days till today it has gotten fuller and so great he is a treasure that we are lucky to have thank you weird al for being who you are and for sharing your talent
Al is the best....! I remember him from the old days and have followed his music from the 1970 and onward... I introduced Al's music to my two sons and they loved his music and musical skills...!
yes! Weird al is one of my inspirations. I am currently doing original comedy music on my channel. please check me out and tell me what you think. your feedback is appreciated
@@champion1859 lol yes I have changed up this channel recently. It is more of a christian comedy channel now, but I did leave up my Doordash lowrider parody which seems to be popular. I also have a second channel with comedy parodies called f'art Jamz. It has some funny ones about walmart, tiktok, and roblox
Nicely done. Makes me wish they would have had Yankovic doing the Super Bowl halftime show this year. He would have done a polka medley of Prince songs coupled with "Sports Song" from his "Mandatory Fun" album.
Dude, Big was amazing! So was The Burbs. I can say I haven't seen much I've liked him in recently, but his early work speaks for itself. And I dare you to watch Turner and Hooch without getting even slightly emotional.
Idk if anyone else has written down the lyrics but here and Idk about line spacing but here you go: Would you annihilate us, if ya had the chance That's such an antisocial thing to do You've got us crapping our collective pants May I suggest you take it down a notch or two We're not exactly sure why you're upset Did that Seth Rogan movie make you super mad You'd like us if you got to know us, I bet We're mostly harmless decent people Hey, we're really not so bad My point is: please don't nuke us, North Korea Right now we're all a little tense Believe me, we don't hate you, frankly, we don't even think that much about you, no offense Now you might call us bloodthirsty dogs But that metaphor is not very apt We're just a bunch of simple, fidget spinning, goofy dorks who probably couldn't find your country on a map No, we're not savages or cannibals, well maybe just a really really really small percent So I think it would be best if you'd knock off those missile tests Don't turn us into cinder, while we're swiping right on Tinder Don't jumpstart armageddon or our beds will soon be wettin' Would you think this through for a moment, please Now why would you bomb our late celebrities Oh, why in the world would you kill Tom Hanks 'Cause nobody doesn't like Tom Hanks So, please don't nuke us, North Korea That would seriously ruin our day Remember, we're not evil, psychotic monsters, no matter what the news may say We're just those goofballs from the USA (Please don't nuke us) (Please don't nuke us) (Please don't nuke us) Hey
Weird Al deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to negotiate peace between North Korea and the USA.
He had ‘em at Tom Hanks.
Or at least a McArthur Genius Award.
What about Dennis Rodman?
Peace by begging? Are you serious?
Frank Zappa was unofficial ambassador to Czechoslovakia - why shouldn't Weird Al do something similar?
Weird Al is a national treasure
Larry Barnhill Amen
As is Tom Hanks
Can not wait for the next National treasure movie. Where we see Nicolas Cage trying to find the golden statue of the great Weird Al. And the diamond head of Tom Hanks.
Kim Nis best one yet
Amen
"we're not savages or cannibals - well maybe just a really really really small percent" - this lyric always gets me lol
Speaking as a former opera singer who has had years of training, I have to say, aside from being brilliant and hilarious, his DICTION is PERFECT. You never have trouble understanding his lyrics!
Wow. You must have an amazing voice then if you did opera. So cool
Not a music expert or anything but i’ve always liked how he clearly and properly enunciates his words as he sings. It’s a big part of his weird sound, but I love it
I appreciate this every time I listen to him as an adult. Even as a kid, there was maybe just one word per album I'd puzzle over. Good professional fun!
Agreed! That's what enabled us all to understand his comic genius, regardless of tempo lols
Speaking as a layman who formerly sang karaoke on the reg, I have to say his pronunciation is very good when singing. His lyrics are great too. I know because I could hear them!
I never thought Weird Al might stave off nuclear war
Blake.TV BUT is it better than The Saga Begins?
Have you sold millions of records? Can you even sing without the aide of a computer or auto-tune? When you do a parody cover for a song do you make sure the artist gives their permissions before even writing the song? If so I apologize for what I've said. Otherwise, FUCK OFF! NORTH KOREA!
Who would have thought that's where his career was headed?
I thought Christmas at Ground Zero would be prophetic. I was right.
Move over Mister Rogers.
North Korea saw this and said, "Who could ever harm that delightful lunatic?" Thanks, Weird Al!
that's no way to talk about Tom Hanks!
And then they decided to buy all his albums.
it would really suck if Tom Hanks was exposed as a Cosby 2.0... oh no ... I've jinxed it. :C
YES
@@thisisntsergio1352 North Korea should nuke you, not Mr. Hanks.
Weird Al is 58, yet he looks like he is still 42.
is he fucking immortal? betwwen his face/looks and his voice, he hasn't aged since the 80s
The Watcher because when he was 42 he still looked 58
No sugar,meat,fish,dairy or alcohol
I think he still has fun like he's 25. Maybe that's the key.
Weird Al's "old style" (glasses, mustache, facial hair) made him look older than he was. Now that he's shaved, ditched the glasses and has long hair he looks younger than he is.
Why is Weird Al not on the radio? Or if he is, he's not on enough stations. This guy is far more intelligent than 99% than most music artists today. The man is a genius.
Was wondering that my who life!!!
Radio doesn't play this type of music, just stupid love songs.
The guy won five Grammy awards and has four gold records and six platinum records. He's been on the radio a lot. You just might not be listening to the right stations.
You answered your own question.

I can just picture some aide trying to explain this to Kim Jong Un.
LOL!
yeah it's stunts like this that might actually get us nuked
Darth Parallax worth it
except for the fact that north korea seems to be willing to denuke, i think this is what did it because it clearly wasn't trump.
“ a really good singer is telling us that they aren’t too bad. They also have accordions and Tom Hanks sir”
Where it otherwise would be incredibly cringey to go too far in either direction, Weird Al perfectly toes the line between G-rated innocent fun and seriously uncomfortable/tensive comedy, that's why he's genius!
Seriously, every aspect of this was balanced flawlessly, yet not one second of it felt censored or sensitive, just a straightforward comedic song on an objectively terrifying subject.
I never thought I’d say this, but 2017 was a simpler time.
You don't know how right you were
This temporarily cured my depression
Aaaaaaand now its back
Weird Al kept me laughing through a long year in Iraq (05-06). Still doing it!
He is a master of that. He's helped me smile through a lot of dark times. He even sited his own music to help him when his parents died. He is THE MAN!
He who is tired of Weird Al is tired of life
I tire of life but never tire or Al.
I've seen this same comment in dozens of wierd al videos
"He who is tired of Weird Al is tired of life." - Homer Simpson
A lesser known quote from Samuel Johnson.
and if that song doesn't work we have his song Christmas at ground zero to help us through the nuclear winter!
Patrolling the wasteland really makes you wish for a nuclear winter
@@owlbear3937 Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a Nuclear winter.
GO PATRIOTS!!!!!!!
You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop, or Jack Frost on your windowsill. But if someone's coming down your chimney: you better load your gun and shoot to kill!
"We don't hate you, frankly, we don't even think that much about you." This right here is the single most important bit of information the average North Korean really needs to understand
That's true, I don't really think about them much.
That's probably something to have thought about before you bombed every single inch of their country to bits.
@@Snaakie83 north Koreans are told average citizens in the US sit around all day plotting against them
No offense 😂
That leg kick was impressive
He's pretty limber.
And he's in his 50s. Still got it!
We need some Song parody artists in training so the art form can continue for years and decades to come.
That isn't even his personal best.
@@ashlee5634 60 now, actually
why hasn't he played the superbowl yet?
For a song that was likely written in a week or two this is pretty flawlessly constructed. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since all his stuff for the last 25 years or so has been amazing quality (and improving over time) but it's still objectively impressive. The band does a nice job as well.
Weird Al will bring about world peace.
Or kill us all with Polka music.
What an awesome way to go, though.
If anyone can....
Yes
Since he is vegetarian, it might just be whirled peas instead.
I wonder how Tom Hanks felt about this...
He thought, "Man, and I thought David S. Pumpkins was great...."
We need to put the lyrics, in Korean, on the screen, then send this to the North Koreans.
YES
North Korea doesn’t allow its people to watch UA-cam
Randy Williams that’s what the USB drives are for
Thesnakerox ill give you that yes
Except it’d be kinda hard to figure out how to translate into North Korean. North and South Korean is different.
The Mozart of our times.
If not Brian Wilson, then definitely Al Yankovic. In terms of musical genius, they're both up there.
Holy crap it worked!! They "called off" the Guam strike today!
Patrick Stewart ok seriously I don't give a fuck on the politics or ethics of this: kick trumps ass out of the White House, and place weird al on the chair!!!
I can agree weird al for 2020.
The North Koreans didn't design and build thermonuclear weapons and ICBMs in one year (no one in the history of nuclear weapons ever has), which means we can blame the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations for sticking one thumb up their asses, sucking the other, and trading thumbs for 20 years.
So true.
Is that true?
Lyrics!
Would you annihilate us if you had the chance?
That's such an antisocial thing to do
You've got us crapping our collective pants
May I suggest take it down a notch or two?
We're not exactly sure why you're upset
Did that Seth Rogan movie make you super mad?
You'd like us if you got to know us, I bet!
We're mostly harmless decent people hey we're really not so bad
My point is!
Please don't nuke us North Korea!
Right now we're all a little tense
Believe me! We don't hate you
frankly, we don't even think that
much about you
No offense!
Now you might call us blood thirsty dogs, but that metaphor is not very apt

No! We're not savages or cannibals
Well, maybe just a really really really small percent
So, I think it would be best if you knock off a missile test
Don't turn us into cinder while we're swiping right on tinder
Don't jump start Armageddon or our beds will soon be wetting
Won't you think this through for a moment please,
Now why would you bomb U.S celebrities
Oh why in the world would you kill Tom Hanks!
Cause nobody doesn't like Tom Hanks
So please don't nuke us North
Korea!
That would seriously ruin our day
Remember we're not evil psychotic
monsters
No matter what the news may say
We're just those goofballs from the

Thanks for posting! I think what you're hearing as 'acc' is actually 'apt,' though, just to help out.
Wil Oakes thanks! I was actually debating whether it was one of those two words "apt" or "acc" 😂
No problem. I'm pretty sure it's apt, but who knows? Thanks for transcribing the lyrics!
Please don't nuke us,
Please don't nuke us,
Please don't nuke us.
Was the Seth Rogen film Superbad?
Even though it's a joke on a comedy show, this song really slaps
Weird Al for prez! Oh, wait, he's too smart for that...
shot fired
Got too good a haircut for that too
I love how the guy with the trumpet at 0:32 looks like he's trying not to crack up laughing XD
As soon as I heard that Tom Hanks had the Coronavirus this is the first place I went

Meh. He's all right. Though a forty-year recording career is pretty cool.
He's almost 60. God i love this man.
Weird Al, the only man with the skill, charm, and gumption to avert nuclear war with North Korea
Well actually Trump did that too
It warms my heart that this is the FIRST autofill from “please” on youtube
I want Al to put out an album of nothing but original polka songs like this one.
agreed.
Guam and Tom Hanks, saved by Weird Al Polka
Actually, it was more to do with the 900-odd Minuteman III sites, four Trident subs full of Tomahawk cruise missiles and three carrier battle groups staring Kim Jong-Un in the face. Just sayin'
2017(colorized)
Weird Al for President!
Stephanie Bonds Weird Al for deity in an odd cult

Yes, it is a polka, note the lederhosen. And Weird Al has always asserted that the accordion is the sexiest musical instrument known to western society.
I just went on Weird Al's FB page and the segment is posted there...
TheSheiban yeah, he added it back a day later.
Polka will never die.
This and the Captain Underpants theme are proof we need a second Medium Rarities album.
No, we need another album from him. He could call it Strings Attached, after his current tour. And put this on there.
I wish the North Korean government would just say to this video "ok we won't"
What North Korea Was Thinking:
As Kim Jong Un's finger hovers over the nuclear button to launch on Guam, his top advisors tell him there is something he needs to here. He listens through the song laughing at the stupid Americans until he heard one line. "Nobody doesn't like Tom Hanks."
He stands up, nods his head in agreement, and orders the immediate disarmament of all nuclear weapons.

Weird Al for President, 2020.

Agreed. Any President that plays an instrument has at least %50 chance of not plunging America into a financial crisis. And I’d play those odds.

thanks...loved this...
that's hilarious. his best song since "The saga begins"
1:15 through 1:30 sounded so much like a riff from "The 1812 Overture" that I half-expected that orchestral bell passage to follow...
That's the most accurate description of an American I've heard in a while
I want this song to be played during the height of US-North Korea's Cold War. Preferably when the first nuke is about to hit.
Weird Al's starting to look a lot like Tiny Tim...
And yet, another outstanding performance from the Weird Al gang.
Twin clarinet players? A cutie on the string bass that flips it in circles at the end? This could be LOVE !!!!
Mission accomplished™?
The minute Kim saw this, he immediately said "Oh my god, not tom hanks!!!" And immediately cancelled his plans XP
Yeah, he wasn't going to say he hated Hanks.
I found some of his albums I had as a kid and I was about to toss them but after this performance I think I'll keep them a bit longer
sharpshooter33 keep them permanently or send to me
...why the fuck would you toss Weird Al? Send them to me please.
Send them to me pls I'm poor

Can’t wait for Radcliffe ❤️
You know, way back when I was watching The Weird Al Show, I honestly never thought he'd still be around today.
I'm so glad he is.
Weird Al show sucked. Not written well. But I remember when he started becoming big in 1984. Has it been that long?
The rehearsals must have been a blast!
IT WORKED haha
