*** Al's official channel has [[https://youtu.be/Vq6OncN6_Fo?si=75oWGfyTsGylXYxy "take one"]] of the music video, where none of the green screen effects or other scenes have been added in yet - so it's just three minutes of Al lip-syncing Donny Osmond [[FunnyBackgroundEvent does extremely goofy dance moves behind him]].

** The guitar solo is also a brilliant parody of Eddie Music/VanHalen’s solo on the original. It’s funny as well. It’s played on the recording by Music/RickDerringer.

* "I Remember Larry": Larry's "pranks" definitely CrossTheLineTwice, especially "when he cut my car in half." Even more so the last verse, where the narrator reminisces on the time he [[spoiler:left Larry to die bound and gagged in the middle of the woods]] and thinks Larry would agree "it was a pretty good gag."
