"Know what happiness is for you.."

"It's good to be able to laugh at yourself and the problems you face in life. Sense of humor can save you."- Margaret Cho (Brainy Quote)





     
     Eight releases in eight days bestowed upon music lovers around the world. Thank you, "Weird Al"   Yankovic.  "I Love Rocky Road" was my first scoop of this amazingly versatile artist's tasty spoof treats. My youngest nephew is a huge fan and so is anyone with a love of music and a developed sense of humor.
    Produced by multi talented Nerdist creator Chris Hardwick, Seth Laderman and Johnny Wickham the video for "Weird Al" Yankovic's 'Tacky"-the Pharrell Williams's "Happy" parody is one continuous  intentionally tasteless take. The funny obnoxious spoof features "Weird Al " with guest appearances by lovely comedians Aisha Tyler, Margaret Cho, Kristen Schaal as well as actor Eric Stonestreet and the lovable comically crude joker Jack Black. 
     "Mandatory Fun", " Weird Al's " fourteenth studio album released today will feature "Inactive" a parody of Imagine Dragons, "Radioactive" and "Foil" a genius look at Lorde's "Royals". 
 A little lyrical preview:
“I never seem to finish all my food.
 I always get a doggie bag from the waiter.
 So I just keep what’s still  unchewed.
 And I take it home. 
 Save it for later”  

 Trust me. We are all saving room for more of "Weird Al"s scrumtrulescent desserts in the days to come.
