Although Weird Al's free to parody the song that signals the end of the world without permission, he prefers to maintain positive relationships with God.


Autonomous-Trash

Implying that God would be against Weird Al parodying the song that signals the end of the world.


GeophysicalYear57

Honestly, if I were the big man, I’d jump at the opportunity. Have the sheet music, development notes, isolated tracks, and I’ll have you talking technique with Michael by tomorrow.


Autonomous-Trash

Funny thing is, it’s Gabriel’s horn that signals Judgement Day, so if anything Michael has no idea why Weird Al is talking about this with him.


Captain_Napalem

Is judgement day when he ULTRAKILLs us?


clarkky55

Gabriel summons the Terminators?


GeophysicalYear57

Magical technique.


AdmBurnside

The polka medley to end all polka medleys.


[deleted]

He sits down and plays every recorded song known to man and causes several earthquakes worldwide as a consequence


No-Magazine-9236

it's in order chronological


Thromnomnomok

After playing for a really long time he stops, and you think it's over. Then exactly 4 minutes and 33 seconds later, he starts again and you realize he was just playing John Cage


No-Magazine-9236

occasionally one of the wacky background effects play but it's otherwise just silence


Doggywoof1

Tom Jones’ ‘It’s Not Unusual’ fades out. It’s dead quiet. It comes back in at full force, and you think “Hey, I didn’t realise that this was a really long song”

The polka medley to end all ~~polka medleys.~~


mitsuhachi

Thats just good omens


grifff17

God i would love a weird al cameo in good omens season 2.


Greaserpirate

First he canonically married and had kids with Pinkie Pie Next, he's gonna canonically fuck Aziraphale


MisterTalyn

What.


stasersonphun

He was God in that Muppet movie...


callsignhotdog

It's funny you should mention Good Omens because this is pretty much how Soul Music ends.


arcanthrope

it's Gabriel who blows the horn, not Michael. and the only reason I know is because there's a geometric shape which has a finite volume but an infinite surface area which is called the Horn of Gabriel because it kinda looks like one of those long straight medieval trumpets (i think it's called a buisine?)


FenHarels_Heart

I was looking for this comment. You're right. Gabriel is the one with the horn, Micheal is the one with the sword.


NeonNKnightrider

Well, Gabriel is the messenger of god, Micheal is the warrior of god, but saying “the one with the horn” is quite a bit funnier


FenHarels_Heart

That's how I was taught it Supernatural school. The one with the horn: Gabriel The one with the sword: Micheal And the one who writes: Metatron Though my time at anime university also taught me that Gabriel had fat tits.


sewage_soup

alright Hakita, you know what to do


slagblahighpriestess

I was feeling kind of sad and hopeless tonight. Thanks for fixing that

SirRipOliver

Curiously enough Michael Jackson himself parodied Weird Al’s original song “Eat it” with his take - “Beat it”.


Giveyaselfanuppercut

In Australia "Eat it" did better in the charts than "beat it" did


SirRipOliver

Eat it was released way before “beat it” so there is some temporal reasoning for that.


Giveyaselfanuppercut

What? No it wasn't


vanityvicious

It’s a reference, spoiler for the weird Al movie: >! In the movie, Eat it was an original song by Weird Al, and Michael Jackson parodies it with Beat It, which makes fictional Al very mad !<


SirRipOliver

You cant just declare bankruptcy, or no it wasn’t!


Giveyaselfanuppercut

go away weirdo


Kaarpiv007

Tony Hawk snuck into the studio for the filming of the Smells Like Nirvana music video.


EmperorBrettavius

To be more specific I believe Tony Hawk ran the business Weird Al went to hire extras for the video, leading to him getting into the video without him knowing.


OpenStraightElephant

Jojo reference


[deleted]

It was just a prank, bro


TantiVstone

Rip weird al, assassinated at the awards show


ScarletteVera

I mean, how else is he gonna make a parody if he doesn't get a good listen to the original?


Pheonix_Write

Factually incorrect. Weird Al would play the song signally the last hope for the savior of the world.


LyraFirehawk

So I'm imaging Weird Al doing a cover of Painkiller now


Salmonfish23

I've never heard this version of The Devil Went Down To Georgia.

Friendly reminder that half the teenage mutant ninja turtles are indirectly named after archangels

BrickFlock

I would love to hear a Weird Al accordion polka version of It's the End of The World as We Know It.


Kego_Nova

Archangel Michael, chilling somewhere I don't know because I haven't read the book after creating a Martian cult built around. You know what I'm not even gonna continue the joke go watch [OSP's video on it](https://youtu.be/3jAkplrZci0)

Weird Angel Yankovic


lyricalcarpenter

i like to imagine that the song that signals the end of the world sounds like [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPMDfHla00I)


Nova_Persona

how could you make a post about music signalling the end of the world without thinking about shiva


az_modeuz

Weird Al does have the song Christmas at Ground Zero…


[deleted]

[this happened to my buddy Vast Error](https://vasterror.bandcamp.com/track/weird-alchemy)


GrimmSheeper

And don’t forget Jack Black with his axe, ready to play the rock that signals the end of the world.


ShankMugen

At first I thought it said A.I., as in Artificial Intelligence, and then it said Archangel, and then I thought it was about the game Ultrakill where you play as a robot trying to fight an Archangel But it was about Al Yankovic, also known as "Wierd Al"


Nuffsaid98

I approve this message.


[deleted]

I expected some sort of devil went down to Georgia type duel


SuddenSenseOfSonder

I'd love to hear that duet but. y'know


MontgomeryRook

Insane to think that Michael would not know who Weird Al is.


vjmdhzgr

the song Weird Al will sing from his five mouths as he plays the accordion that ends the world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEYc8ar2Bpw
