Okay, How Come I Never Got the Memo on This One?

From 2003, please enjoy "Otto Bob" Palindrome "Weird Al" Yankovic and the funniest and/or most brilliant Dylan parody ever seen/heard by sentient mammalian eyes/ears.

Seriously -- I find it incomprehensible that I had not encountered that previously until sometime last week.

Also, may I repeat -- "Otto Bob" Palindrome. Just in case you didn't get the song/video's central joke. 😎

And oh yeah -- that hilarious and brand new power pop song I teased you guys about yesterday will go up tomorrow. Scout's honor. 😎😎

I play this clip for my students after playing the real song clip. Then I show Jimmy Fallon imitating Bob while singing "Charles in Charge." Youtube it if you haven't seen it!

When my son was around 12 years old I bought tickets to surprise him on his birthday for a Weird Al show despite the fact that at that time in my life I REALLY had little appreciation for Weird Al, maybe because my son played this music constantly in the house which pretty much drove me nuts. I realize, it’s a short drive. He was absolutely thrilled. Anyhow, we went to see the show at the Mayo Theatre down in Morristown and it was one of the absolute best shows I’ve ever seen. His band kicked ass, and he was hilariously entertaining, not to mention an amazing accordion player. 87 costume changes, not one moment of dead air. Outstanding! I finally got it. Go see him while you can.
