This is a perfect example of what Al and his band members do best! Whether it’s a song parody or an original composition: The juxtaposition of the seriousness of the music with the hilarious absurdity of the lyrics is what makes their musical comedy *PURE GOLD!*

Forced to learn violin as a kid, years of playing Mozart, Beethoven etc for a cranky instructor, more years of spendy music college and boring theory classes, only to find yourself playing at a Weird Al concert. As someone who took this path with the piano, I couldn't imagine a better turn of events!

Beautiful. I love how the song keeps getting progressively worse and horrifying until it finally embodies the TRUE feeling of public transportation.

I unironically love this song. Seriously, that "don't you do this to me" makes me tear up.

Seeing him perform this when he was in Seattle was absolutely awesome!! Being at the Strings Attached convert was one of the greatest moments of my life

Loved him since I was a little kid in the 80's 😄

This is a work of genius. Who else could have written this? I can't think of anyone. And then to perform so well and with such passion. I am so grateful that Weird Al is in the world. My life would have been a lot more boring without him and his music. He kept me going during very low periods in my life.

Haha the lyric at 4:06 "so please let me cauterize your tear ducts with an arc welder" followed by that immediate cut to such serious string musicians is hilarious to me.

Not a lot of people noticed I think but I really appreciated when he kicked his leg into the air! It went super high and it shows that he is really flexible and healthy for his age. He is truly a legend. His concert in Airway Heights was absolutely amazing and I hope he comes back soon.

Saw Weird Al in concert. One of the best live shows I've ever seen.

My husband and I came out for the Sacramento show for our honeymoon and meeting you was a dream come true! Thank you so much for blessing us all with this amazingly orchestrated(ha) tour!

Happy Birthday. Big one, Al. Good for you. Lots of love. Thank you

Weird Al Yankovic, you were my number one Favorite growing up... AND YOU ARE STILL ARE, SHOOTING LIKE A STAR!!! 🌟 Keep it up with your Creative Lyrics to Music Parodies!!! Thanks for Everything! 😎

You are an amazing man, Al. Keep making people smile and making life worthwhile, Mr. Weird.

Pure skill & talent.

Amazing! Still rocking all these years. Check out those shoes!

I was at this show! Incredible performance.

If you didn't catch him on this tour you really missed out! This was an amazing show!

I saw this live. Weird al did a super amazing job. Strings attached was my first concert,and I loved it.

Saw him at Meadowbrook Theatre in Rochester Hills, Michigan (Detroit area). Strings Attached was incredible! Love the "long songs" you do. This one gets me though. I would always look at people driving in their cars and wonder about their lives and what if we were friends or had a family together. Although the song goes off the rails when he starts talking about body suits. But that is what is wonderful about Weird Al. He makes those comedic leaps. He links the personal experience that a lot of people do and takes it to its lunatic extreme for comedic puposes. Genius! American Treasuer! Love this guy!

"Weird Al" Yankovic is my favorite singer ever. I met the guy at a con two years ago. I admired him since I was 9. That was one of the happiest moments of my life. Continue to rock, Al. And continue to tickle my funny bone.

This song was already such an epic journey... Al transcends in this performance

Didn't get to see this year's tour, but seeing this performed live last year was one of the highlights of my life. Keep being awesome!

I was able to see this guy when he came to my town of Syracuse, Best Birthday / Christmas Gift EVER! (My parents bought the tickets for me for Christmas.)

Weird al still killin’it as always. I remember seeing the ‘Poodle Hat’ tour back in the day. Many have come and gone but Weird Al always persists and I love it.

Ive been listening to you since the 70's. Keep it up. It never gets old. Come to think of it....neither do you!
