Garfunkel & Oates with Weird Al Yankovic "Save The Rich"

[@verne51]

the most impressive thing about this is weird al is reading all of this off a page on stage.

[@Brewnoe]

pope nods

[@JohnDoe-vy5hh]

Al is a super great guy and musician. And these two ladies are amazing!

[@nickihere8753]

Something about seeing him is so comforting. He needs to be around more... if I had an animated show he would be the main character. He's honestly a gem. These girls are very harmonious! Special creative duo!

[@Primalxbeast]

Nicki Here He really does seem like an amazingly sweet and lovable guy. You realize that he already plays the main character of an animated show? Milo Murphy

[@ANDROLOMA]

Catch his new movie on Roku! If you get Roku.

[@bongodave13]

He really is a good guy, by all accounts.

this song will always be relevant :(

Гимн капитализма. Привет, товарищ =)

[@ragabashmoon1551]

I like how they kept it clean for Weird Al, great respect to him. :) If you hear their solo version they say "F**K you Detroit!" instead.

[@puckcat22679]

Weird Al DID come on stage with them for their song "F**k You," though. All he did was play his accordion, he didn't sing, but while he himself doesn't use those words, he seriously doesn't care if others do.

[@adambaum3407]

Riki's adorableness from getting giddy about doing a song with Weird Al....so stinkin cute i might die!

[@bookbeing]

Me too. I had posters pinned up on the wall of him, mork and mindy, and Sean cassidy! He was my fav!

[@TieDef]

Between "Don't Download This Song" and participating in this, Weird Al has got some serious down-to-earth cred.

weird AL is the best concert I've ever seen, and I've seen they might be giants,the urge,Manson and so many more. ... AL trumps them all by far

[@wonkyeye]

As someone who has seen TMBG live, that's one serious endorsement.

Spider Jeranimo is right. I had to buy a new keyboard :(

[@malcolmgoth1749]

I love the nerd giggles they give towards "Al" ... Love em!

[@NimhLabs]

You know those "Save Africa" choirs that were all the rage in the 80s? We need to get a bunch of comedy acts to join in, and do a choir version of this song. Like... let's throw in NSP, TWRP, Steel Panther, Egorapter and a few other acts in here... and just do a full on 80s Charity Choir Song with this.

[@lance5041]

We do. I know this is satire, but the rich have it harder because they're not used to being poor. I feel bad that Nancy Pelosi only has two freezers for her gourmet ice-cream (you really can't go back). Now that AOC can afford a Tesla, it's not reasonable to expect her to ride a subway! Open your big hearts and tiny wallets to save the rich! Bless you!

[@captainquark2272]

This has aged well

[@williamcasey1927]

Captainquark2272 sadly, it's aged well because the rich have done the same stuff since occupy Wall street days. Namaste, stay as sane and happy as you can.

Because nothing has changed.

Hmm I guess the economy has not gotten tremendously better with more jobs and more business. Ya this has aged well??? Or something. I don't care if your Rep or Dem, if I wasn't for Carona we without a doubt would STILL be doing great. What are you guys even talking about?

[@rickflorke7605]

I think I'm in love with Garfunkel and Oates

[@IanPeon]

I'm glad this is timeless comedy, because it took 9 years for me stumble across it. What I'm more relieved about though, is that the rich survived against all odds during my period of ignorance to their plight before these 3 social activists alerted me to their imminent danger. Otherwise, I'd be devastated from guilt for doing nothing to save America's greatest tradition: replacing royalty with exclusive ownership, and we all know the difference between them and which one is better.

[@fluffybobber]

They made this great again!

[@missannethrope01]

Bernie Sanders needs this as his campaign song.

[@lance5041]

Because of him actually being rich? I love how he has people fooled, he's good.

[@JohnDoe-vy5hh]

Bernie is not rich. He made a million on a book and inherited a little but he's not rich. REAL wealth is measured in billions, Bernie is nowhere near that.

[@joeblow2426]

Oh come on. Bernie’s doing the right thing. He’s for the people and that’s what’s important. He may have some wealth, but he’s not rich by many people’s standards. And he’s nothing like Felonious Rump, a born into money billionaire elitist who will promise anything to anyone if it means more money and power for him. He could not care less about his people, otherwise. The two men are in no way similar.

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

The question is... would Weird Al be "Weird Al" without the hair? ;-P

[@wonkyeye]

People asked the same thing when he shaved the stache, but he still emits weirdness from every pore like sweat. Weird sweat.

[@joanhoffman3702]

Besides the moustache, he used to have short curly hair and glasses. It's the weirdness inside that counts!😁

[@jafderx1757]

Check the White & Nerdy video. Yes, he's weird without the hair.

First time I've ever heard Al get political. Maybe "Foil" was a little political, but that came after.

Donald Trump's pandemic response song. So prescient.

[@twilightzonepinball]

Weird Al is worth 16 million.

[@sophiet1576]

For example, the Walton's are worth $190 billion dollars. That means that the billionaires that run this country, are worth 174 thousand times as much as Weird Al. You don't understand the inequality of wealth in this country. A millionaire is nothing in the US. It's the multi Billionaires that are killing us.

[@oninojb8979]

Been a weird al fan my whole life. I wish it were possible to rework our entire economic system and set a flat 10% tax on everyone with NO loopholes for anyone. Everyone seems to think it's "just" or "ok" to point at the "other side" and not recognize that everyone is to blame for our economic state, because we all abuse it. Alot of social programs may end up going out the door with a 10% flat tax, but at least would couldn't argue that everyone isn't paying their "fair share" while we learn to wipe our own asses.

[@LootFragg]

I agree about the no-loophole policy but a flat tax is exactly what the rich are asking for. The current idea is that the more you earn, the more you are able to spend to benefit society after securing your lifestyle, so taxes increase with income to alleviate the burden on minimum-wagers while still not being too lax on the wealthy. If that sounds too complicated, imagine this: - *Paul earns 1000 bucks a month*. He has to pay rent, power, phone, insurance shit, whatever. Costs 700 total because he lives in a shitty apartment. He spends the remaining 300 on food and the savings go into purchasing pants when his old ones fall apart. Taxing this guy 10% means taking 100 bucks away from him which is critical. - *Peter earns 10.000 bucks a month*. He lives in an expensive neighborhood and pays 4000 monthly for rent and such. After spending 2000 on expensive food and pants to throw at the poor, he still has 4000 left. You tax him 10% of his total income, he doesn't even notice the missing 1000 bucks except that he has to save longer on his next car. - *Donald earns 1.000.000 bucks a month*. His house has a fireplace for burning money because the nigga rich. You take 100k from him and he will complain and grab women by the pussy but even then he finds it hard to spend the remainder because his hands are too small to be tossing that shit out of the window. That's why, generally, there is a minimum poverty threshold and an increasing tax level the more you earn. At a couple of million doshes, you pay like half, leaving you with only half the millions you would normally earn. So if you were in power to impose a flat tax, every rich guy would suck your dick to make that happen.

[@anthonymacconnell7179]
