Al's really singing the lead vocals, the background dancers ARE the Backstreet Boys, and they ARE NOT really singing. This was at an eBay convention in '03
Weird Al's BEST parody. This is better than the music video: it's funny how he imitates the Backstreet Boys and sings it like a love song, even though it's about buying a bunch of crap. He's a great performer. If you liked this, check out "Weird Al-The Saga Begins." If you haven't seen it already.
Weird Al doesn't need to lip sync, he has actual talent. The only reason the backup singers are lip syncing is because he is so good he backs himself up
The video camera is aimed at a display screen, not at the stage, so there's an audio delay there. The backup singers are definitely lip-synching, but I think Al is singing live - the yell around 2:40 is not really the same as the recorded track.
@griffraco Al doesn't lip synch. He's singing along with an audio track. Some of the audio track does have his voice singing backup in it, but he is definitely singing the lead parts live
All the back ups were him if you were talking about vocals... if you're talking about the people goofing around on stage with him, he doesn't even use them when touring. And they'd cost too much money and look too cheesy anyway.
Also, those "backup people" aren't singing. The backing vocals here are prerecorded by AL. Go to one of his REAL live shows to see a better performance.
a few years ago a boy named jacob died in a clock tower when he got crushed in the gears.
he is now seekin revenge on the living. you must copy and paste this to 3 videos within 25 hours or else jacob will kill her in the middle of the night
Also to ozzyxyz10, i checked it out Werid al is older and realeased music before slash, if anything slash is copying him. Also never try to slam someone with no factual backup, you will be wrong and it will get pointed out to you all the time.
Don't laugh at this!

He will grant you one wish Make your wish when the count down is over 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 MAKE A WISH Send this to 10 videos within the hour you read this. If you do, your wish will come true
Those other guys with Al are not the BSB. They were hired to pretend to be back-up singers. Al found out about this just minutes before going onstage. Al is the only one singing live. The other guys are lip-syncing to a backing track. Still love watching this. Al looks great.
he used it in a few early music videos without meaning to and then somebody pointed it out to him and he's like, why not, it's a funny number, so kept on using the 27's.
THIS IS A TRUE THING!!PASTE THIS MESSAGE INTO 3 COMMENTS AND HIT ALT F1 AND YOUR CRUSSHES NAME WILL APPEAR!!it will be a little scary at first but its cool!!!
it sucks that a guy that talented has to perform at something like a conference. hes better than that. someone world famous like him should be in stadiums.
yea hes singing over a backing track , almost every pop band does it . but i agree hes singing live , hes amazing infact , and im not caling al pop , hes just a nutter! amazing song writing skills

Dude, I can't even hear Al! You were too loud behind the camera. All I heard was your laughing, clapping, talking, and yelling. Be more quiet back there.
Actually, only about half Al's songs are parodies, though all of them are funny. I love this song, because I'm an ebay seller :D. I feel I'm finally vindicated.

It's out of sync because the camera is recording a screen, which is behind in real life. While the audio is the real audio.
