They also do it with ''We only torture the folks we don't like / You're probably gonna be okay'' to ''You're gonna be okay.'' Seems convincing....Probably ;_;
Al's talked about this. In a comedy song you can't just repeat hooks...it gets boring. So each iteration of the hook is always different lyrics. This is true of most of his famous parodies.
I mean one CIA agent got a sitting Italian prime minister killed and wasn't fired for it. He did leave the agency soon after because everybody hated him but he wasn't fired for his incompetence.

You know, I like to imagine actual CIA agents consider this song to be their personal anthem. Some agent, hiding in a dark room, watching micro cameras inside enemy headquarters, quietly singing "It's a party in the CIA" to themselves, or quietly sneaking up behind a threat, humming "and my silencer was on, my silencer was on!" right when he pulls the trigger on his silenced 9mm.
Sorry to break the immersion a bit but silencers don't make a gunshot that quiet where no one would notice, the best ones lower to sound by about 30 decibels which is still as loud as say a car horn when standing near it, the difference being it's hard to tell if it's a gunshot exactly, or where it definitively came from

I am convinced that weird al is some sort of immortal, all powerful being that no one can control, but instead of destroying the world he just uses it to live forever and make awesome music
Underrated Weird Al song actually. This is pretty hilarious, the juxtaposition of the music and subject matter is typical of Weird Al, but usually he takes a more serious song and makes it about something trivial like food or TV. This is different, a very fluffy/happy song with really dark subject matter.
+Joshua Batista Word Crimes is three years younger but has almost three times the views at 33 million. So yeah, for a Weird Al song this one isn't that popular.
That'd be nice if he was, but it's actually got to do with a lyric, where he sings "Staging a coup like yeah" If you look higher up the comments, you'll see that it wasn't because of that.
Just. Notice near the end he says "stagin a coup" which means technically this was planned ahead of time which also means the cia agent literally planned for this to happen
Yeah the melody is the same, but this parody has better lyrics, more interesting and more varied. Seriously, Miley Cyrus' song is incredibly repetitive.
statistically speaking, there's a high chance someone in the CIA actually listened to this Edit: Ok, i didn't do any actual math, i didn't expect this comment to get any likes, idk how probable it really is
Well seeing how 28 million people have whatched this video and there's 328 million people that live in america and 2000 people work at the cia and im guessing that not only americans have watched this video there's not a big chance that someone at the cia have watched, unless a person who knows someone who works at the cia showed it to them.

I can't tell you how many times I randomly went, "And a better dental plan than the FBI's!" Hm, never noticed the leopard or lion pouncing on the giraffe.
And "foil" is a sequel to this, where after working for the CIA he discovers about the reptilian elite conspiracy, other than that I know that "fat" is a sequel to "eat it", but other gthan that the WACU still needs to be sewn together.
the "better dental plan than the fbi's" harmony sounds SO COOL and i dont hear many songs with vocal harmonies that stand out like that but also work well
The 3rd world country do not need any stabilizing from us. They have to stabilize themselves. Because foreign intervention of any kind leads to some kind of destabilization. Don't see yourself as some good samaritan, you only want to help others to stroke your ego. How about respecting other countries enough to let them stabilize themselves?
fun fact: even though it's not legally required, weird al asks the original artists for permission to parody their songs. this means he contacted miley cyrus or her associates and asked for permission to make a song about the crimes of the cia
For decades, being parodied by Weird Al is one of the biggest honors a musician can receive. This is why even though Weird Al asks to do it despite not needing to, everyone but the absolute worst tightasses enthusiastically say yes.
I worked at IBM in the mid-1980's. I had two bosses that "participated" in the Vietnam war. One of my bosses was Special Forces, three tours, and the other led protests in California and burned his draft card. On a Saturday, boss #1 comes in with a T-shit that says "Join the USMC. Travel to exotic places. Meet interesting people. And kill them." Boss #2 comes in, sees the T-shirt, turns to me and says, "we anti-war protesters created that T-shirt. Mike's just too stupid to realize it's sarcasm. Instead, he's proud of it." They were best friends by the way.
Well if you can check off any of these than you will still be shot: [_] you kill mass innocent people [_] you take everyone’s money [_] you have some form of communism [_] you make dark deals and plans to attack and deustroy anyone who isn’t you or is different in your country

Searched this song on Google, typed in 'party in the' & it auotofilled with both 'usa' & 'cia'. But Al's version was the first one listed. We've done it, people. We fixed the algorithm.
Cia man; "I've heard of you, Me. Now tell me, Me, do you think you're the best Me you can be? Are you a better Me than I am? Me, if I send you after another Me like you, would you be able to take Me out? Or would you hesitate like I did the last time I saw Me? What if Me wasn't you afterall? Would you care about that, Me? Do you think I care about you, Me? If you were in my shoe's, Me, would you hire you or me either one?"
Weird Al : Hey Miley, I'm making a parody of your song "Party in the USA". Miley : Umm OK, wow, this is quite an honor, Al. Yeah, go for it. What's the song called? Al : Party in the CIA. Miley : ...... Al : It's about all the war crimes and dark stuff the CIA does. Miley : ...... Eh, what the hell. Go for it
This song got a lot less funny when I started working on an archive of Guatemalan human rights abuses. But that's not Al's fault--it just takes it from song parody to his always underappreciated TRUE mastery, black comedy. Literally everything that he brings up in this song is either real, or within like two degrees of reality.
@@tankunicorn134 The little we know about the CIA is pretty wild. Some of the crazier things that they are accused of like MK ultra only came to light because a group of people broke into a CIA building and stole classified files which then led to a federal investigation.
@@tankunicorn134 The CIA is America's foreign intelligence gathering organization. They are almost entirely self-funded and have almost no accountability. We can thank the CIA for training Osama Bin Laden and his ilk. Very nearly all of the problems the U.S. has concerning middle-easterners and south americans hating us are directly related to CIA espionage and nation-wrecking.
the thing about this statement is that we know so little about the CIA(unless someone here secretly works at the CIA) so no one can confirm or deny this but this either is illegal or not what the CIA deals with so probably not
Weird Al has one of the most expansive minds in show business, and it shows in his broad catalogue of songs. Nearly every artist he's asked to do a parody or pastiche of, they've agreed ... they consider it to be a compliment. This song, and the video with it, is absolutely fun. I'm sure it made Miley happy.
That part is actually very true. There were many times the CIA tortured innocent people because they had slightly the same name as some terrorist. And in the end they didn't even get reparations

@@yahnmahn9035also minimalism works for websites and service websites Idont know if the style is easier to animate but its already done in flash (toonboom) with rigs
Quite funny. The dictator at the end uses the same methods as the CIA. The Agent laughs because he realizes that in the end, they were no different from the enemy.
I mean, you are right; but the CIA (as far as I know) torture criminals in order to get information about other bigger criminals to be able to stop them. The ''enemy'' simply torture people either out of fun or because they want to know more about the good side in order to halter them.
He said in an interview that he always approaches the artist first to avoid legal issues later. Can you imagine that conversation? 🤣 Miley: Hey Al, what's up? Weird Al: Hey Miley. How do you feel about the CIA?
I’ve heard most of the artists are extremely flattered when he approaches them because they consider it something of an honour/rite of passage and some will even help out with music videos (Michael Jackson donated a stage, clothing and taught him a few dance moves. Kurt Cobain took it as a sign that Nirvana had “officially made it”, Bob Dylan thought the palindromic “Bob” was very clever, and George Lucas personally *loves* “The Saga Begins”).
The scary part about this is that if information like this is in mainstream pop songs, imagine how much shit the CIA actually does that you don't know about!
You mean like autopsying someone who's not dead yet! They keep him on life support, and, keep cutting, until he can't stand it, and, talk! Then, they allow the person to die, by pulling the plug!
@@hackerjamsandjustweggamer Having a massive assassination program to kill whoever might stand in Uncle Sam’s say, they say terorists but truth is we Americans can put any person under the “terorists” term, luckily the actual order itself isn’t just the president’s orders.

Weird Al would have been proud to make this parody himself. Well done to those who made this, it's good to make songs linked to Al's assassination at Madonna's hands.
I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the CIA wrote the song then hired Al to front it. I'm not empty, I just don't want to waste ammunition. It is dead with one bullet why put up a sign with a second bullet? I tend to follow the "One bullet one kill" philosophy far more sporting.

Underrated Weird Al song actually.
This is pretty hilarious, the juxtaposition of the music and subject matter is typical of Weird Al, but usually he takes a more serious song and makes it about something trivial like food or TV.
This is different, a very fluffy/happy song with really dark subject matter.

is that the sound from the n64 game goldeneye 007
Same with when they’re punching the guy.
He does put a lot of effort but this isn’t very special. If they were off beat it would sound awful, it would be difficult to screw it up that bad.

@@penknight8532 His other parodies are good like this one.
Unrealistic, this video makes the CIA look somewhat competent
fun fact: even though it's not legally required, weird al asks the original artists for permission to parody their songs. this means he contacted miley cyrus or her associates and asked for permission to make a song about the crimes of the cia
And don't forget that he pays every songwriter for the rights. So, Al paid Dr Luke, Jessie J and Claud Kelly, who wrote Party in the USA.
The internet liked these comments
Funny how you just assume with nothing to bring to the table.
Wowzers
For decades, being parodied by Weird Al is one of the biggest honors a musician can receive. This is why even though Weird Al asks to do it despite not needing to, everyone but the absolute worst tightasses enthusiastically say yes.
I worked at IBM in the mid-1980's. I had two bosses that "participated" in the Vietnam war. One of my bosses was Special Forces, three tours, and the other led protests in California and burned his draft card. On a Saturday, boss #1 comes in with a T-shit that says "Join the USMC. Travel to exotic places. Meet interesting people. And kill them." Boss #2 comes in, sees the T-shirt, turns to me and says, "we anti-war protesters created that T-shirt. Mike's just too stupid to realize it's sarcasm. Instead, he's proud of it." They were best friends by the way.
The marines find it hilarious.
Maybe he knew it was sarcasm but decided to own it up anyways.
Man I love t-shirts.... Its sad that I cant have the limited edition T-shit tho lol

Four of Clubs probably did. Special Forces are army. We always talked shit about the jarheads anyway, as they do us. Friendly rivalry and all.

This song got a lot less funny when I started working on an archive of Guatemalan human rights abuses. But that's not Al's fault--it just takes it from song parody to his always underappreciated TRUE mastery, black comedy.

@@tankunicorn134 The little we know about the CIA is pretty wild. Some of the crazier things that they are accused of like MK ultra only came to light because a group of people broke into a CIA building and stole classified files which then led to a federal investigation.
