Alpacolypse

As you may or may not already know, after a 5 year hiatus Weird Al Yankovic has a new album out titled Alpacolypse.  You can listen to it in its entirety here.  For the most part it's pretty disappointing, possibly more an indictment on the state of pop music today than on Al, but there were a couple gems. 

The second track on the album - CNR - is a parody of the White Stripes and an ode to Charles Nelson Riley.  The video was created by Jib Jab and is a masterpiece.  Note the head of Chuck Norris on his trophy wall at about :50.  This is now my favorite video.


The other one I really enjoyed was Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me.  Believe me, there are some people that I need to start replying to their emails with a link to this:
