That was hilarious, love Weird Al. Nice Jack Black cameo too. So what song is this a parody of?

What rock have you been under?

Since the video is so dope, I'll just post the embed. It's also on the Despicable Me II soundtrack and won a Grammy for such.

As you'll see at the end, there's even a 24 Hours of Happy video, where the song plays on a loop and people all over the entire world dance to it. There were even some in the ME who went to jail over it because of national prohibition on dancing.

LMAO

Ive seriously never heard it. I only listen to classic rock and sports talk radio, and dont watch TV except for movies, sports, and TV shows that I download.

Guess that's why.

Well, that song has overwhelmingly blanketed pop culture damned near everywhere. I don't listen to radio at all and hardly ever watch TV, and I've heard "happy" a few times. As mentioned earlier, it even rose to the level of serious news story where people in idiotic, repressive, backward countries were arrested for dancing to it.

Any chance you could just link that or something? The auto-play is obnoxious.

I love Weird Al... I got his first tape, WAAAY back in the day.

While it looks like there MIGHT have been an edit somewhere, I absolutely guarantee you, that was all done in ONE CONTINUOUS SHOT. That was a bit of a challenge for me, because I start the video on a 5th floor fire escape, and I reappear on street level wearing completely different clothes. That means - for EVERY TAKE - as soon as the camera was off me I had to run down 5 flights of stairs WHILE CHANGING MY CLOTHES so I could be on camera again at the end. Definitely got my workout THAT day!
That's impressive.

Well somehow I still missed it. Catchy tune though, really like Pharrell after hearing him on the new Daft Punk album.

I've never heard the song, and never heard of Pharrell or Daft Punk.

I'm listening to Grand Funk Railroad right now.

No regrets.

The song you won't see on any album, but Paul as a vegetarian requested he not publish it.
