Weird Al Yankovic Performs “Eat It” On Japanese TV
God, I so love me some Weird Al.
Now, that he’s totally getting his due, it’s time to go back. Way back. Way back to his performance of “Eat It” on Japanese TV accompanied by some really crazy eating comedian.
Go Al, go. Seriously.
Thanks so much to TViJ reader David for the amazing tip!
You’re welcome!

Wow! He’s even singing in Japanese live with different lyrics in Japanese and it features the “Sumo Dancers” as it says in the begining.
No wonder why they still play this song in the background of most Japanese TV talk shows.

He has no idea what’s being said around him at the beginning, I love how he just looks back and forth at everybody :D

He looks completely clueless when people are talking, but its amazing.

I wonder if Kobayashi Takeru saw this as a small boy…

He looks perplexed the whole time! The Japanese are even weirder than Al!
I second you on the “Go Al, go”. He rocks. I’ve loved him since this song came out 2576023 years ago.

Um, I think Ben was joking, pal. The fat guy was impersonating Michael Jackson, pretty obvious actually.

Wow! Way to take one for the team, Al. Did you see that belly flop onto the hard floor? Bless his pointy li’l head, no one can ever say he doesn’t give it his all for a laugh.
