I'll have to check it out. He's suppose to be releasing a bunch of new songs like this over the summer.

OMFG! That if f**king hilarious!

Looks like I'll have a new song to learn if I ever see him in concert again.


(And I killed my voice from singing EVERY song the last time. Yes, even the "Albuquerque" encore)

@ Julio: I don't know. But it does sound familiar!

I love it. Weird Al never seems to fail!

I think it's a mash up of Doors songs.

The "open letter" part is clearly a take on the monologue in "The End".

I think he's just trying to emulate the style of The Doors, not a specific song, like how "I'll Sue Ya" is like Rage Against The Machine. But this is awesome, I saw Weird Al 6 years ago on the Poodle Hat tour, and it was phenomenal. I can't wait to hear the other songs coming out over the next few weeks.

This.

It's like how "Dare To Be Stupid" is a take on DEVO's style.

Eh, not bad I suppose but not great. I'd like it better if I was into the doors, I'm sure

Just because it's a style parody doesn't mean that it doesn't incorporate elements of songs by that band.

Case in point, the song "Germs", which is a style parody of NIN that directly references "Terrible Lie" and "Closer".
