World Premiere today!
Don’t forget, Al’s first single for Straight Outta Lynwood will be available in only a few short hours, at 6:00 PM Pacific, for free download, on Al’s MySpace.
Let’s see, that’s at 6:00 PM if you live in California, or 9:00 PM if you live in New Jersey, or 3:00 AM on Tuesday if you live in Zimbabwe. If you’re not sure what time that is where you live, click here to find out.
It is believed that the song will be either the Chamillionaire parody, “White and Nerdy” or the original song “Don’t Download This Song.” There are strong arguments for both. We’ll all find out in a few short hours. I’ll be listening. I’m so excited!

August 21st, 2006 at 01:26 pm
I just learned I’m going to the movies tonite. I’m gonna miss it! BUMMER!!!! If someone hears it, please tell me if you liked it!
August 21st, 2006 at 02:06 pm
ABN what movie are you going to see? If it is Snakes on a Plane it is forgiven. Al should have been on the Snakes soundtrack with an all new song or he should have had a part in the movie.
August 21st, 2006 at 02:56 pm
I am seeing two, BOTH of which I think Al should have had a cameo in. I’m seeing “Barnyard” and that “Ricky Bobby” movie with Will Ferrell.
August 21st, 2006 at 04:56 pm
ABN, you should of caught a matine, eh(unless you had to work). I caught Snakes on a Plane this afternoon, and Al would have made that movie BIG had he been in it.
August 21st, 2006 at 05:07 pm
Did you like it, A Man? And I TOTALLY agree with you!
August 21st, 2006 at 05:38 pm

August 21st, 2006 at 06:17 pm

August 21st, 2006 at 06:23 pm

August 21st, 2006 at 08:05 pm

August 21st, 2006 at 08:09 pm
hehehe… 3rd person to hear it on myspace
August 21st, 2006 at 08:12 pm
this isnt a parody of ‘we are the world’…maybe its a style parody
August 21st, 2006 at 08:12 pm
What irony, eh. Imagine Al put a virus in it to teach us all a lesson. But I’m assured he loves us, and wouldn’t…..right?
August 21st, 2006 at 08:17 pm
Awesome song!!
August 21st, 2006 at 08:19 pm
Just a tech note. I was having consistent ironic problems actually downloading this song (”The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.”) until I switched from Firefox to IE. If you’re stuck that may be the problem. Or it might just be some weird extension of mine.
August 21st, 2006 at 08:19 pm
Cool Song, Funny As Hell.
August 21st, 2006 at 08:22 pm
That was totally excellent! We’ve got to make sure that Al gets that solid-gold Humvee that he wants.
August 21st, 2006 at 08:38 pm
Got the lyrics:
Once in a while, maybe you will feel the urge
To break internaitonal copyright law
By downloading MP3s from file-sharing sites
like Morpheus or Grokster or Limewire or Kazaa
But deep in your heart you know the guilt would drive you mad
And the shame would leave a permanent scar
‘Cause you start out stealing songs, then you’re robbing liquor stores
And selling crack and running over schoolkids with your car
So don’t download this song.
The record store’s where you belong.
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should.
Oh, don’t download this song.
Oh, you don’t wanna mess with the R-I-double-A
They’ll sue you if you burn that CD-R
It doesn’t matter if you’re a grandma or a seven-year-old girl
They’ll treat you like the evil, hard-bitten criminal scum you are.
So don’t download this song .
(Don’t go..) Pirating music all day long.
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should.
Oh, don’t download this song.
Don’t take away money from artists just like me.
How else can i afford another solid gold Hum-vee
And diamond-studded swimming pools?
These things don’t grow on trees.
So all i ask is everybody please…
Don’t download this song (don’t do it, no, no…)
Even Lars Ulrich knows it’s wrong (you can just ask him…)
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should (you really should…)
Oh, don’t download this song.
Don’t download this song (Aww, please don’t you do it or you…)
Might wind up in jail like Tommy Chong (Remember Tommy…)
Go and buy the CD (right now…) like you know that you should (go out and buy it…)
Oh, don’t download this song
Don’t download this song (na na na na na na na na na na naaaaa…)
You’ll burn in hell before too long (And you deserve it…)
Go and buy the CD (just buy it…) like you know that you should (ya cheap bastard…)
Oh, don’t download this song.
August 21st, 2006 at 09:45 pm
As mentioned earlier, there is a problem downloading the song in Firefox. However, if you wish to avoid using IE (who wouldn’t?), get the IE Tab extension for Firefox. It let me download this piece of solid gold with no problem.
Al, this may be one of my favorite of your releases. EVER!
August 22nd, 2006 at 09:25 am
Sorry…JUST got up and I can’t beleive this song……IT’S AMAZING!!!! Except for that “Ya cheap Bastard…” Line, It was TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!!!!
