I have never been a Weird Al Yankovic fan but I have always loved “Ricky”, a parody of Toni Basil’s “Mickey”. The song and wonderful clip (Weird Al’s first) was all based around the old “I Love Lucy” show and featured the amazing Tress MacNeille as Lucille Ball. You may remember Tress’ voice as Agnes Skinner in “The Simpsons” and Mom in “Futurama”.
And of course, she’s also the famous Crazy Cat Lady.
Anyway, here’s the clip. A very funny and clever send up.
