I thought in the Geoge Harrison version, George said I got my spell on you" until one of my friends told me what he really said. I am surpised he did not say that since he did not have a parody about how many words is in song. Well anyway, It is different having this type of parody though. Thank you for your video.
actually this isnt 7 words, and just becaue 6/six is a number it doesnt matter. This is the lyrics: "This song's just six word long!" lol yepp xD dis dong rawks though
"Six words long" fit the meter. "Seven words" did not. And the title has six words.
He certainly couldn't change the melody or the meter, seeing as how it was a parody and not an original. (A brilliant parody, I might add - I'm sure George Harrison liked it. He had a great sense of humor).
unless you count six as a number. in that case it would be, " This song is just 6 words long." making it 6 words and 1 number long. he never said anything about a number. he also never had to.
dude the funniest thing happened today. i was listening to my iPod on SHUFFLE and Got My Mind Set On You came on... then the next song was THIS ONE lolololol! talk about irony! xD
That's the point. He made it seven words ON PURPOSE. That's what's funny about it!!! Seriously... what has happened to the collective since of humor??? Y'all are just too absorbed in your own silly lives to appreciate it aren't you?
I don't think some of the people watching this realize that Weird Al isn't talking about himself making tons of money off of this easy-to-write song.
He's making fun of George Harrison, the man who sang the original version of this song "I Got My Mind Set on You" back in 1987. The song became really popular and George Harrison made a ton of money off of it, even though it was just seven words long ( yes 7, count the words in the title above in quotation marks. )
I was talking about the first line of the song. I actually know a song that is litterally words long. It's called "Stalker Goes to Babylon" by a Japanese rock band called "The Pillows". Seriously, all it is is "We'll soon be happy won't we?" That's it. The rest is just music.
Funny that most people saying this don't even realise that the WHOLE song (which he's actually referring to in the title) is way more than six - or seven - words long... it's a parody, so don't agonise that much over the logic in it ;)
The irony is taht it is actually 7 WORDS LONG!

This song is funny, but the George Harrison's song is still awesome, and Harrison did a really good job singing and performing the song.
Both entertaining in their own way.

Actually, if you count the words:

3. Is
4. Just
5. Six
6. Words
7. Long
There's seven words. And he meant it that way.
