My dumbass thought this was Yankovic singing Jack Black's Bowser song "Peaches".

Likewise.

"Peaches" does sound like it should be the Weird Al parody version of a more serious song and I love it for being original.

I went to see The Presidents waaay back in the 90's. They were jamming through their set and got to Lump. They rocked it of course, but ended with Al's line from Gump. Then the spotlights swooped around into the general admission audience and there was Al jumping around with the rest of us! It was glorious and the only time I've ever pushed through a crowd to meet a celebrity.

Saw him in Bakersfield a week or so ago with my wife. Funnest concert I’ve ever been to.

I like that Weird Al can sing just any old song and we love it so much.

hey weird al we went to your concert about a week ago it was amazing and we got one of your tour shirts keep up the amazing singing!

When Weird Al ended the song gump with "And that's all I have to say about that", Chris Ballew said that was a better ending for Lump than his own ending and incorporated that exact line in his song during live performances.

The best music collab! It just makes sense to have Weird Al sing this song.

Brilliant. I bet that was the performance of a lifetime, for everyone, performer and audience alike.

I just subscribed! I love “Weird Al” Yankovic! I just saw him in concert today! 🤩

This was SO awesome to see in person. We had no idea what was going on and watching it again it’s like, “Oh my god. They DID THAT!” It was probably the best concert I’ve ever been to. Thank you so much for an amazing show!

Well that was very entertaining. 2 of my favorites on 1 stage. I've got just as many Weird Al Yankovic CDs as I've got of The Presidents of the United States of America's CDs. Thanks for the awesome video!

I saw him at Hersheypark during his Running With Scissors tour. He was scheduled to do two shows that day, but the crowd was so big, he added a third show at the last minute.

Just saw Weird Al in Grand Junction last night and his encore blew my mind. It was 10 minutes of something along the lines of a Maori Haka on crack. The band did it with him in perfect unison and it ended with a mantage of Nirvana, Amish paradise , word crimes. I can't express how grateful i am to be alive at the same time as Weird Al. The fact that he visited Grand Junction Colorado is huge. He could have easily sold out 2 nights in Denver, but instead visits Grand Junction and Greeley Colorado. Who does that?

Going to see him in a few days for his Ill advised vanity tour super pumped

This is so good. I would love an album of covers of Al's favourite songs.

I absolutely lost my mind and even cried when this happened last night, Al. Thank you for everything. You're a huge inspiration to me as a musician...well...drummer. But I like to write lyrics too so I like to think that kind of counts in some way.

You know you made awesome music when Al just covers it and doesn't parody it.

I was a dj when this song came out. And to my knowledge I was the first person to play it on the radio at least anywhere in my vicinity. Hearing the two collaborate doing this song had never occurred to me. Now I realize that this performance is the duet that I needed in my life right now. I hear this and I think to myself, everything is going to be ok.

This is the stuff in music than transcends all, you can't put this into words....I dunno why it makes me cry but it does!

I have listened to this lyrical wordsmith since i was but a tween. and still he sounds great and hasn't lost that fire of his youth.

Awesome duet! Keep it up, Al!

How absolutely marvellous xoxoxo can't wait until the world is opened back up enough to see this magic back down in Australia :)

I met Chris Ballew when he did a surprise appearance (seriously, it was a same day announcement I think) at my tiny town's library in Washington state. It was so cool to see him basically perform out of a guitar case, and he was super nice and down to earth while he took pictures with me and my 3 year old daughter. Fun fact, Weird Al performed the accordion accompaniment to Chris's Caspar Baby pants song, Long Long Dream. It makes sense because a lot of Caspar Babypants songs are like junior versions of Weird Al's songs.

Knowing how great a musician Al is, seeing him genuinely appreciate the simplest chords with such enthusiasm is a testament to his wonderful character. I'm counting the days until the Weird Al movie, and the inevitable global realization of this magical entertainer and hopefully his backing band, who themselves deserve recognition for their contributions to the some times all too serious music industry. I'd rather stick my nostrils together with crazy glue, Than spend one more minute with you.

seeing him in about two weeks and this has me even more excited

That genuinely put a smile on my face!

The only way I could be more excited about this is if I saw it live. This makes me so happy. I want to share this with all of me nonexistent friends!

Where can I get more 👍 buttons, cannot express this enough.

This is the OG peaches song

The presidents are one of my favourite bands! When I saw the title, I thought "nah, it couldn't be..."

Saw Al play in Bend Or on the 25th of the june, was the first Al concert ive ever been to and the first concert in about 15 years. Great show, Great Night, Thanks for doing what you do Al, You and you band have helped keep my spirit up over the years.

This songs is definitely really fun to sing. Good job!

Two of my most favorite people!! Awesome

I just can't stop raving about Al's impeccable vocal technique and the skill of his band. Rock on. Stay weird.

Al is 1000% my favorite musical artist

Love you Al! Always amazing to see you post new videos:) especially when you're playing some bangers like Peaches💯

Are we going to talk about the name of the concert tour? I love it! (More folks should name their tours something similar. We all know I'm right.)

My childhood just came full circle. Incredible. 🙌

This man's lovin' life, and I am here for it!

Well, this was amazing.

I hope Al keeps rockin’ for many years. I was that “brave” kid in high school wearing a Dare to be Stupid shirt. Saw Al in Pueblo at the State Fair, Running with Scissors tour, then again for Poodle Hat at the Pepsi Center. An amazing performer.

The Doors and PUSA are two of my all time favorite bands. Weird Al loves both and has worked with them perfectly. This brings joy to my soul 😊

If time ran in reverse... Weird Al Yankovic would be a comedic artist of such amazing variety and talent that musicians everywhere would make covers of his songs as tribute.

Still sounds GREAT!
