So we cancelled our release date and waited

There are few things we dont love about Weird Al, and his new record Straight Rosetta Stone Outlet Outta Lynwood reveals the reasons why his career has outlasted many of the artists hes parodied. The new video for "White and Nerdy" is almost as absurd and cackle-inducing as the song itself. (Hes fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon.) Rosetta Stone Associate Editor Austin Scaggs had a chance to chat with Mr. Al and he gave us the scoop on the whole "Youre Pitiful" scandal and told us what songs hes most looking forward to performing live.Id imagine that every parody you do cant be golden.... Which ones have you tried to execute over the years and subsequently scrapped? There have been plenty of hit songs that seemed like they would make great parodies, but I just couldnt think of any ideas for them that werent well, lame. While working on my new album, I briefly considered and then jettisoned a Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 lot of mediocre ideas like "Had A Bad Date" (Daniel Powter), "Holodeck Girl"? (Gwen Stefani), "IRS"? (Rihanna), "Hairy Back" (Justin Timberlake) you get the picture.R. Kellys "Trapped in the Closet"? is almost a Weird Al song in itself. How did you come up with "Trapped in the Drive-Thru"? I knew I couldnt make my R. Kelly parody any more ridiculous or convoluted than the original, but I believed that I could make it more stupid. Because thats where I really shine. So I tried to keep all the overblown drama intact--only now its an 11-minute song about a couple getting burgers at the drive-thru, which was the most banal thing I could think of at the time.What happened with James Blunt and "Youre Pitiful"? Actually, James Blunt was totally fine with it, and "Youre Pitiful"? was going to be my lead single. Then, the day after Rosetta Stone German we announced the original release date for Straight Outta Lynwood, we heard from Blunts label (Atlantic Records) that they didnt want the parody to come out. That was really odd generally, if anybody has a problem with the parody, its the artist the label is usually more than happy to get the free publicity and extra revenue. But they said it was"too early" in James career for a parody, and they were afraid that focusing any more attention on "Beautiful" at that point might lead to the perception of James as a "one-hit wonder."? I used the argument that my Nirvana parody didnt seem to kill their budding career and in fact I was told by an executive at Nirvanas label that I probably helped sell them an extra million copies of Nevermind.? Atlantic was unswayed they said the timing was just really bad. They didnt say Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 I couldnt do the parody they just said theyd let me know "when the time was right."
