Weird Al: "White and Nerdy"

Post by Rogue 9 »

Hehehehehehe. This is great. Weird Al's next album has a parody of Chamillionaire's shit song, Ridin' Dirty. It's supposedly up for download on his MySpace page, but it's locking up for me, so I can't tell.

The music video has made it onto Google Video, though, and it's classic. :lol:

Youtube's got it too, of course.

Yeah, this is Weird Al at his best. I mean, this is like "Fat" good.

This song is fucking awesome. :lol: Now I'll definitely get it.

Edit: The song is undownloadable, otherwise you'd be able to click on the link. :P
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Besides all the Star Trek references I liked that he was in an alley buying a bootleg version of the Star Wars Holiday Special on video. :D

I typically find Weird Al's songs and paradies quite amusing. This is just more of his good stuff. :)

That's good stuff. He can be pretty lame sometimes, but every now and again he'll get one just right.

I've never heard the song he's ripping off, but that's a pretty neat song.

One of the stations in my area plays that song in place of actual Chamillionaire, and so far it's gotten a pretty good reaction. Sure, four out of five listeners won't get the references, but still.

I got the entire album, and the rest of the songs on it are almost as good.

What annoys me about it is that "Ridin' Dirty" doesn't even fit the music. "Ridin'" is one syllable the way he says it, and it sounds like he's saying "wondering" or something.

As for Wierd Al's video, I saw it, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Easily one of his more clever songs.

Hilarious song. Definitely one of his best in a long time. Seems like it'll be an album worth picking up.

I only wish I could actually get the song to download in the mean time.

I know this is a little necromancy but I finally picked this album up yesterday. It has this weird dual sided DVD/CD. The DVD has the full album audio tracks in 5.1 surround and 6 music videos and a "making of" featurette.

Can anyone figure out this equation from the "White and Nerdy" video?

My "White and Nerdy" hoodie is on order. I'll probably get it around Thursday. :D

According to Wikipedia it's Schrödinger's wave equation
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
