Fun fact: the back up dancers are the same guys from beat it
Wow!! I never knew that!! That makes it even funnier, if that's possible!! Thanks!!
I love good TH-cam communities, always learn new stuff about things I've enjoyed for years or in this case decades, thanks for contributing this tidbit, never knew that
Same as the Teen Spirit video and James Brown video. Weird Al gets all the original backup crew.
That’s how big Weird Al really is. Impressive
I believe all the sets are the same too
In case you wondered what Michael Jackson thought of Weird Al's parodies, he actually shares a writing credit on this song with Al - the only time Al collaborated with the original artist. Michael thoroughly enjoyed Al's parodies and the only song he declined permission when Al asked was "Black or White" because Michael thought the message of the original song was too important to make fun of.
The video is a beautiful shot-for-shot (in most of the exact same locations, wiith the same extras) as the original video. Al is so beloved that Michael of course would help him out with everything he could. A while back the alternate takes of Al singing in the bedroom were posted by Al himself, it's... odd.
Michael Jackson also agreed to give access to both the sets where he actually made the videos for Bad and Beat it, so that is another factor on why the videos are so similar :p
@@user-dy2te6xf6g Not the same. Yes, you can find many times Al worked with famous artists in the recording of his works. But I'm talking about creating the parody concept and writing it. Al is notorious for not taking other's suggestions for his work. This was a very rare exception.
@@hammerman199374 ok. But that’s not the ONlY time he collaborated with the original artist. How would you know anyways? Are you his manager?!?
He did such a complete job love them. More please Smell like Nirvana.
Smells Like Nirvana is amazing. And, as you noted, you really should (re)watch Smells Like Teen Spirit beforehand.
Yay!!! I just asked him to check out Smells like Nirvana as well!! I'm hoping he does!!! Weird Al is pure genius!!!
"Your horoscope for today" is a hilarious original, and I suggest "Tacky" because it's shot in one long take with a bunch of comedians.
Vote up for this one
I agree, Tacky. That one is awesome.
Tacky is a great pick, but let's be honest, Cliff needs to go thorough his entire videography. The order doesn't matter much. (:
YES TO BOTH!
Another fun fact: While "Beat It" had its guitar solo by the late, great Eddie Van Halen, for "Eat It", the guitar solo was done by the underappreciated classic rocker Rick Derringer.
Also, as a hip-hop guy, you should do Trapped in the Drive-Thru. It's long, but you will be so glad you experienced it
YES
Wow, I never knew Derringer did that solo. You're right, he's one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.
oh... the guy that explodes is Derringer? I always thought weird Al wanted to have Eddie Van Halen in the parody too so I thought maybe that was him, but ok.
@@ingolf82 I'm not sure about the guy I'm the video, but Derringer played it on the recording
@@ingolf82 The guy in the video is Jim West, and he's Al's guitar player. But yes, the solo was recorded by Rick Derringer.
If you dont mind reacting to a longer song, Albuquerque is great! It is an original and supposedly he made it to see if he could annoy his fans with this long song, but it is very well liked by most fans.
I believe he's as ready as he can be for that one. I definitely wouldn't do that one early into a Weird Al journey
When I saw Weird Al in concert, he got to "lost my train of thought" and restarted the song from the beginning. Everyone loved it.
I believe that Al never made a video to Albuquerque but there is a fan based animation video that is pretty good.
@@KngOfTheBlind Yo, that is legendary troll shit.
Came here to comment the same or like the person that did. :D Such an epic journey of a song :D
The thing with Bad and Beat it is that, when Al went o Michael to ask permission to parody his songs, Michael was so enthused he let Al use his sets and set him up with Michael's choreographer. They remained friends afterwards, too. But, even so, Al does his best to parody as much as possible, where at all possible.
Fun fact: The red jacket was actually loaned to Al for this video from Jackson directly.
You still need to react smells like nirvana
It’s coming.
@@CliffBeatsOfficial thank you
Watch the video first! Smells like Teen Spirit.
Kurt Cobain loved Al's parody
"What is this song all about..."
Weird Al''s stuff in the 80s and part of the 90s were classics. Perfect parody. I loved his take on Like a Virgin.
I needed to add that I have only seen one other of your videos. Just discovered like an hour ago. Anyway, I just found you are Chicago! Sister in Oak Park. I am a little over an hour west in the dung heap known as Rockford.
I preferred I Think I'm a Clone Now honestly.
I love these reactions! You should do "Foil", parodying "Royals". My kids and I love that one.
If Al is anything besides a genius he's also a perfectionist. He gets every detail spot on. From the lyrics and the cadence to the shooting location and sets. He doesn't release anything till he feels it's as perfect as he can get it. AL is the man!!!!!
✌️Peace✌️
I love how like, if you watch the original Beat It video, then watch this one, it's the exact same actors playing the exact same roles
Bedrock Anthem is one of his parodies that makes me forget the original lyrics! It's a must watch!
The bars for “Hardware Store” are FIRE. And it’s an original.
*Eddie Van Halen* plays the riff in the original *Beat It*
Living with a hernia is a fantastic parody.
Growing up in the 80's was freaking awesome! :)
Eat it! Went up the charts as Beat it! was (finally) headed down. This was Weird Al's breakthrough hit. Those of us who spent Sunday nights glued to the Radio for Dr. Demento knew who Al was and we couldn't have been happier for him. A nerd like us had made it!
Weird Al "Trapped In The Drive Thru" next, please?!
michael jackson loved his parodies many were done on the same sound stage
Scene for scene, YES watch them, he's not only got the cadence and emotion of the song, but scene for scene follows the original with hysterical, spastic accuracy. LOVE weird Al. He never makes the song/video worse or cheaper, just FUNNIER!
"Trapped in the Drive thru " is amazing, a must see!
Weird al Albuquerque the music video was fan made but al has dubbed it as official cause it was so good
I think you should check out 'Foil'
Parody of Lorde "Royals" with a conspiracy theory twist 😂
Excellent suggestion!
you should check out the side by side versions of Beat it and Eat It. It's uncanny how Al is dancing exactly how Michael Jackson is in the video
You gotta do trapped in the drive thru. With your sense of humor you will love it
If you really like the comedy of Weird Al, then you really need to see his movie, called "UHF".
"Don't download this song" - a song made available at the time by Yankovic ONLY via download, back when pirate music sites were heavily under fire.
It's not a parody, but an original work, and the lyrics are golden, lol.
Nope the picture wasn't meant to fall, it just did, and they left it in final cut.
The picture actually fell on its own. And of course they kept that take because it made it brilliant.
Lucky for you someone actually edited "Eat it" and "Beat It" music videos to play side by side. I picked up some small things in the video that I never noticed until I saw them side by side.
I can't watch Weird Al in his channel because it wasn't made available in my country. I'm glad I can watch it here with you. Thanks, Cliff.
You should do a react to Weird Al's "Like a Surgeon", which is truly hilarious as well.
Love it! One of my favorites is Living With a Hernia.
Fun fact: the ending frame of Eat It is a reference to the ending frame of Thriller
Weird Al called up Michael Jackson and was able to use the same set with subtle differences.
“Living with a Hernia” is another one the original artist helped out in the creation of the music video.
Check out James Brown’s “Living in America” before.
Yep. Weird Al as James Brown.
Good to see you back 👍
You need to watch the side by side videos for Eat It and Fat - they really show just how close AL got on all the details.
there is a side by side comparison video of Beat it and Eat it on youtube. It's hilarious and shows how much love Al and his crew put into these
Rick Derringer on lead guitar 🎸 He is best known for singing and playing guitar on Rock and Roll Coochie Coo.
Weird Al is underrated. 😃
You hit all the right notes, dude. From encouraging folks to go to the original artist's page to advocating watching the original video first, (I could kiss you for that) your videos are a real joy. Thank you!
“How does he make these so good ?” - my answer being Weird Al’s friggin’ hilarious. 🤣
I continue suggestion the song, until you react to it: "I perform this way" a Parody of "Born this way".
And no. The picture was not meant to fall down, but Weird Al liked it and kept it in.
You need to do side by sides of M.J's original songs & Weird Al's parodies of this one & "Fat". It's amazing! Micheal let Al use the sets from both videos!!
Bedrock Anthem is legendary, it’s a parody of Give It Away from the Red Hot Chili Peppers 😂
You've got to check out his song called "Albuquerque" . It is eleven minutes long, but you will get a laugh out of it.
One of my favorites that all most no one reacts to is “Craigslist”, one of Al’s newer style parodies. This one is done in the style of The Doors. Al channels Jim Morrison, and the late, great Ray Manzarek, the keyboard player for the Doors who gave them their signature sound, played keyboards on Craigslist.
almost* no one. 🤦🏻♀️
It's amazing how he sings that fast and he how comes up with these rimes
Vote for either Party in the CIA or Trapped in the Drivethrough next
Love watching your Weird Al reactions. I'm going to suggest the song BoB. This song's video is a parody of Bob Dylan's music video for "Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bob Dylan (see if you can guess the theme of what is happening in the lyrics). But, of course there are many great Weird Al songs/videos.
Oh wow!!! I'm thinking I must have seen that, but it would have been years ago when it came out!! Thank you for mentioning it!! I'm going to find and listen to it right now!!!
Thank you!!!
Trapped in the Drive Thru is one of the funniest parodies from Weird Al.
An underrated one to check out is I love Rocky Road- a parody of a Joan Jett classic I love Rock n Roll
Living with a Hernia parody of Living in America, from Rocky 4. He used some of James Brown’s band and the same stage.
The picture that falls is Dr. Demento
If you react to "I lost on Jeopardy!" by Weird Al...which I highly recommend...not only do you need to watch the original video, "Our Love's in Jeopardy" by Greg Kihn Band, but you should also definitely watch the opening sequence for the Art Flemming version of the game show "Jeopardy!" You can find it pretty easy on TH-cam.
Yes, the Weird Al video predates the Alex Trebek version of Jeopardy!
Best Regards!
One story I read about is that Al's song helped them decide to bring the show back on the air.
Brother I’m 80s kid… I would gladly welcome you to a true Long Island friendship.. your vid’s make me smile… many many many thanks
The picture in the background on the wall just at the end of the video is Dr Demento. A comedy radio host who premiered AL to the world.
I always wished he'd have done a Thriller parody. It's got so much potential. I am still suggesting One More Minute, and Weasel Stomping Day.
I love these weird al reactions. I always thought of weird al as a low bar parody guy years ago but he is genius for the lyrics and how well he tweeks songs and yet makes them close to the original.
If you want something of his original works, try "one more minute". One of Al's personal favorites he did
42 years ago this month he debuted on national TV on the Tom Snyder show
The night Santa went crazy would be an amazing weird al song to react to
I still want to see you watch Bob and see what your reaction to that song is. Weird Al is a genius, and once that song's gimmick hits you... WOW!
Song is amazing by using palindrome cue cards
I still gotta recommend the Stuck in the Drive Through song, it's animated at 10 minutes long but it's so funny.
no, that picture was not supposed to fall off that wall hahaha
Great reaction. Hope to see more Weird Al - looks like you're enjoying his stuff!
Gotta listen to I think I'm a clone now. Legendary lyrics 😂
“Foil”! “Trapped In The Drive-Thru”! just a couple of suggestions for your next Weird Al consumption! Oh, and “Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me” is a great pastiche parody of Jim Steinman/Meat Loaf.
Hey it's my second favorite song from him that's crazy
This song appeared on the album "In 3-D" which was reference to the original, last song on the album, "Nature Trail to Hell (In 3-D)" which was a B-movie slasher horror parody. This tied into the "Thriller" video/short film, so the concluding shot with the theatrical contacts was a direct reference to that.
You should do the side by side with Beat it. It's almost exactly the same.
fact did you know the picture behind at was not supposed to fall of but the people who helped al make this amazing video thought it worked so they kept it in the final cut
I like how you mentioned the picture falling, it actually wasn't supposed to happen but in final editing they decided to keep it in because it was funny
Watch the end at around 5:59, the guy on the right (to the left of AL) prematurely starts to put his arm up early. He brings it back down and then goes into the dance routine he starts to early again at 6:02
Fun fact: If you hadn't noticed in the original music video of Beat It, the pool table did not have any holes. Go ahead check...
Weird Al and Michael Jackson are the Kings of all music.🎼
check out "living with a hernia" - a parody of James Brown's Living in America.
MJ didn't want to give him permission to parody the video "Thriller" so he put it at the end of "Eat It".😂
You should react to the original and the parody in the same video.
Even if you heard the original already.
Like do "Like a virgin." Then do "Like a surgeon."
That way the audience can see the similarity as well.
The picture on the wall, that falls, is of Doctor Demento
"Though it makes me feel that if I WAS around in the 80s, I would have been on a lot of drugs!"
As someone who grew up in the 80s, I can say that there is a reason for that stereotype on that decade.
The night Santa went crazy you have to listen, it’s a real throw back song that most won’t get but it’s fucking hell-arious.
your Weird Al and Pentatonix reactions are my faves!! keep it up!! 👏👏
for the question for the picture falling it was said that it was not on the script but they choosed to keep it!
Welcome back and thanks for offering your help.
Check out Weird Al's "Like A Surgeon" after watching Madonna's "Like A Virgin" music video. He even mimics her dance moves. Hilarious!
You need to review UHF the only feature length movie starring Weird Al. It's like a mindtrip through Al's brain and a cult classic.
Cliff Beats You Don't Love Me Anymore by Weird Al. Greatest love song ever!!! It's anti-love with a love ballad feel. It's his funniest song, imo
Separate by time frame- I’d have to say “Word Crimes”, “Foil”, and “Handy” are the first that spring to mind if I only think about Weird Al’s catalogue of newISH music. The last two never stop making me laugh no matter how many times I watch the videos. I swear I blow up his channel.
Next please: 'Living with a Hernia'
I remember being a teen in the 80's and, if you were lucky enough to have cable, MTV was usually on all the time. I still remember hearing the first few notes of this song and rushing to the TV hoping it was Weird Al and not Michael Jackson!
You should react to his parody of "Like A Virgin" by Madonna, but include some clips or a least pics from the original video (if you can do that)
Welcome back! Take care of yourself too. Get some serious sleep and hydrate. Great review, Weird Al is an amazing artist
2:40 The picture falling down was an accident, but Al said to keep it, as it WAS funny.
2:41 - That picture was not meant to fall off, but they kept the take because it was funny.
“Dare to be Stupid” would be an excellent example of Weird Al’s pastiche work. DEVO themselves said it was one of the most DEVO songs they never wrote
There’s a video that shows “Eat It” and “Beat It” side by side, so you can really see how the they compare, it’s amazing.
Man, I gotta say you are awesome. I love your reactions to weird Al and George Carlin. It’s so cool to see you experience these videos for the first time. I appreciate what you do. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Oh yeah, I don’t think you’ve reacted yet to this one, but do One More Minute by Weird Al, it’s a classic.
That is actually the same set that they used to make the "Beat It" video.
Al is absolutely the GOAT! I grew up in the 80's, and it was a blast. We loved Weird Al - he was perfect for the 80's with MTv and the introduction of music videos. Try his parody of Dire Straits, Money for Nothing ❤
Love the video! As far as weird al songs I think you'd love? First world problems, Tacky, Foil, Handy, Stuck in the drive thru.
