renmew Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Okay, maybe everyone else in the world remembered this song, but I didn't. I ran into it by accident and called ds in immediately to listen. It's Star Wars Part 1, as told/sung by Weird Al. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS9DKZNEhPc&feature=youtube_gdata_player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's is. lol He touches people and they get "slain in the Spirit" (fall down). In the beginning part of the video where he is holding the light saber, in reality he just touches them with his hand and they fall down. Then he was waving his jacket at them and they were falling down. It cracks me up in the video how the jacket glows red like the light saber. :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
