This is a pretty big collection of firsts for Al this week. This is the first time he released a parody while the song was still climbing the charts, the first time the parody title was the same as the real song, the same time the chorus stayed exactly the same in the parody AND the first time Al released a single directly to the Internet. Is the song worthy of this many groundbreaking moments? Listen and find out!
