"Weird Al" Yankovic - Ricky

[bondfool]

Somewhere, there's a Dorian Gray painting of Al...

(Also, note at 1:45 how Al grabs his jacket so Tress only takes the sleeve.)

[adg2k11]

I never knew the last few seconds were colorized just for the wide shot of everybody dancing...totally ruins the illusion of the song being about an old classic tv show.

[Recesity]

0:00 is replay

[talory]

Alfred does pure love when he parodies icons (well, actually in everything in which he has a hand in.) I <3 him and the way he picks out the good parts of pop culture and amplifies them.

[Sylocat]

Gadget Hackwrench playing Lucy Ricardo.

My life is complete.

[0MindSwept0]

lol, that's even kinda how he laughed!

[TheStarwarsman66]

100 Likes and I will do the laugh at the ending if something is funny. For a whole Month!

[lm2330]

I really enjoy the happy music video of " Ricky", performed Weird Al Yankovic and Tress MacNeille that always puts me in a good mood, plus it reminds me of the '50s television show "I Love Lucy" with Lucille Ball, who played Lucy and Desiderio Arnaz, who played Ricky Recardo and the catchy beat to this song reminds me of "Mickey", performed by Toni Basil, so I like both "Ricky" by Weird Al Yankovic and Tress MacNeille and "Mickey" by Toni Basil.

[NonExistentCodes]

@lm2330 Troll-lol-lol?

[greatdude54]

@lm2330 this is a parody of mickey and this is supposed to be i love lucy

[zer0blue1]

was weird al sining or was he just doing the voice

[lordchrisius]

al looked so sexy with short hair

[WebVManReturns]

Wait just a minute! This isn't a song about Ricky 1's Ricky. Darn!

[RipTheSystem33]

Is that the Smells Like Nirvana janitor I see at 1:12?

[Phantom9713]

Haha lol

[funcoolfunfun]

Love this.

[funcoolfunfun]

Super funny.

[TheFootballPieman]

Love it!!! It's funny aswell

[SemiSpook]

Now this is Old School Al right here! Love this stuff!

[pumpkinpie902]

Very funny video! I love the lady playing lucy!! Love that whine!!

[Hot80s]

what is a smartphone? a dumbass waste of time & money.

[qr11k]

Wow,I haven't seen this version in years. I like the colorized segment in the end. Thank you.

[megaexplosions]

who that cuban musician? wheres al?

[carlos117ize]

The guy playing Ricky looks like Weird Al

[missculgirl315]

@carlos117ize cuz it is

[burstfyre20]

"Hey Lucy!!!!" Lolz old show....

[DuhPosting06]

RIP LUCILLE BALL!!!!!! <3 <3 <3

[terracottapie]

What amazes me about this video is that Al hasn't aged in 30 years.

You don't notice it in his other older videos, because his look is completely different, with the fro, and the glasses, and the mustache, and he looks like a different person.

But when he's in costume as Ricky, you see his face the way it is now, and it looks like he could have shot this video yesterday.

[rocko562]

I Jus Searched My Name...WTF 0.0

[jrob52]

Lucy''s voice is NOT Al's sped up. It's Tress MacNeile

[jrob52]

Lucy's voice is NOT A's sped up. It was Tress MacNeile

[CheckOutMyToys]

Only Weird Al can be hard core with an accordion haha

[yesiinhale]

Luuuucy! You got some spleening to do!

[OttselSpy24]

2:20 hurray for Doctor Demento!

[Retact]

Lucy would be 100 today. Happy Birthday, you funny old ginger! You had soul.

[vampirefoxxgirl]

@Retact T_T Very funny. T_T

[lilly7055]

Thumbs up if google's doodle today made you think of this song!

[FeelinTangerine]

Happy 100th Lucy. Thanx for all the great entertainment!!!

[cutiepuff31692]

. . . everybody. . . RAMBA!!

[cutiepuff31692]

Wow! I really wish al would get that hair cut at the beginning! Hes almost cute!

[Tyhoic]

What is sad... is that I watched the whole thing! lmao!

[summersun213]

EPIC ACCORDIAN PLAYING 0:36

[theoddguy64]

Sounds more like an argument then compliments...

[TheNewWrKing1]

The only thing I don't like about this music video is 0:06-0:08

[MUSIChannel91]

i dont really give a fuck about battle los angeles

[Jimbotloser1]

i tickled Weird Al's ball sack while he tried to scream and run away! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mem mem mem

[VincentValdemar]

When the vinyl is slowed down to 33-1/3, lucy's voice is Al's sped up. It was quite a weird thing to hear how slow he had to sing that part to get it to come out juuust right! Genius!

[Nontella]

@VincentValdemar Proof ? I want to hear it =D

[mastermindsith]

@VincentValdemar Al did not voice Lucy. Lucy is voiced/played by Tress MacNeille, a prominent female voice actress. Check out her many credits for cartoon work.

[VincentValdemar]

@mastermindsith That's really weird, because I'm not lying - when the 45 is slowed the Lucy voice sounds EXACTLY like Al's. If what you say is true, she could easily voice double for him!

[willzyboy12]

@VincentValdemar i dont understand what u mean??

[garymc2000]

@willzyboy12 That IS Weird Al!

[PsychoPop]

@garymc2000 I thought so too - I wonder how he managed to cover up the afro and mustache... or vice versa.

[garymc2000]

@PsychoPop Simple! He wore a wig and he shaved off his mustache!

[xxMrFablexx]

@garymc2000 No it's not.

[mbglosser]

@VincentValdemar uh i thought that Tress MacNeille from the Simpsons, both singing and playing the part in the video of Lucy

[zwiebelknapf]

It is.

[kylehickman1]

@mbglosser It absolutely is Tress MacNeille from The Simpsons and The Rugrats. She's one of the most famous voice actors in the world, though she's worked on live action films/shows, as well.

[corvus1970]

@VincentValdemar, actually, the Lucy Part was sang by the voice actress, Tress MacNeille.

[sjsawyer]

@VincentValdemar You, sir, have been sadly misinformed.

[ckheldon]

@VincentValdemar That is Tress MacNeille, AKA Babs Bunny, Dot, Mom, Linda, Lindsay Nagle, Crazy Cat Lady, Turanga Munda, Brandine Spuckler, the Slurm Queen, Arnold's Grandma and many more.

[xxMrFablexx]

@VincentValdemar That is Tress MacNeille singing.

[Acerem78]

Who else can make a accordion look cool?

[ghostrider5008]

@Acerem78 chuck norris

[Acerem78]

@ghostrider5008 Oh to true to true

[photogramapher]

haha, he's so nice and clean-cut as ricky :)

[BartimaeusTrilogyFan]

Oh god. No words. xD

[amccutcheon001]

this song is way older then me

[9ciurczak9]

I remember this from Fairly Odd Parents

[ScaryMovieFan4]

What is this from??

[TheFaithArtist]

@ScaryMovieFan4 "I LOVE LUCY" - tv show from the 1950's.

[MsFotografka]

Zawsze poprawia mi humor :) 

[JoeNJ2]

Amazing...the vids freeze but the ads don't^

[coneill321]

@JoeNJ2 I saw your comment and almost died haha too funny. i agree 100 percent!

[Remote82]

[patrickkineavy]

werid al looks like joel from rooster teeth

[austinrules08]

they both did a really good impresion of ricky and lucy

[renaapay98]

tehe love weird al have ALL of his cds

[JallaJay666]

What I find strange is just that he never shaved off his mustache or 'fro ever before the 90's.

[FreyaDT]

@JailaJay66 Duh!

[TonKpilS666100]

anyone notice that weird al looks like ash from the evil dead series

[JallaJay666]

Is that Al as Ricky?

[melirose89]

@JallaJay666 obviously lol who else is it gonna be? its weird al as ricky and some actress as lucy. and of course weird al is also the one playing the accordion with the long hair, glasses and mustache

[tapdancer84524]

Whoever put thumbs down because you think thet are dissing the show should hit like because it is showing how classic the sho is! hit like if you approve!

[Eddie2Bu]

...I kinda miss Weird Als old look...the wavy/curly heir and stash

[TheSuperGamefreak]

WOW this was 28 years ago and al is STILL goin strong

good for him

[PetitePerson]

She looks and sounds so much like Lucy. They picked a very good impersonater.

[xxMrFablexx]

@PetitePerson That's Tress MacNeille, a very prolific voice actress, she did alot of voices in cartoons like The Simpsons and Animaniacs.

[TheModernMongoose]

@2:27 it looks like kevin smith playing the drums

[Sims2MCRmy]

[cringles58]

[KreativeStudios1]

Not as good as "Perform This Way: xD

[rosie11954]

wow....I remember listening to this song on my cd player when I was 8!!!

[EmpressNatalie]

@rosie11954 "CD Player"? Why, you young whippersnappers and your "Modern Technologies"...why, when I was your age (8) our records came on RECORDS!

Seriously, I think cd's were invented when I was 9 or 10...and sadly, I STILL don't have this record. *Sniff*

}:)

[Syoran]

One of my all time favorite shows and my forever favorite song WHAT MORE COULD I ASK FOR <333

[PistabachiCalifornia]

[jaiwook63]

That laugh at the end was fucking terrifying.

[Xamudan]

@painteddoll29 no one of my dads friends is

[teamdarkhadou]

This video would be more relevant if it had been made 20 or 30 years ago...when this show was still on the air.

[Jade161588]

@teamdarkhadou 1983 was 28 years ago. So it was quite relevant. :)

[1caninelover]

@teamdarkhadou 20 or 30 years ago? Reruns aside this show was aired more like 55 years ago.

[LagBoy86]

wow this video looks very recent but 1983 Holy crap.

[NookOokTV]

26 people aren't named Ricky.
