Ever wonder how the brain of a genius like “Weird Al” Yankovic actually works? Well, who better to explain it than the Weird one himself! Yankovic has unearthed a 2009 educational short film Al’s Brain: A 3-D Journey Through the Human Brain with “Weird Al” Yankovic and the accompanying “The Brain Song,” declaring the videos “‘lost media’ no longer!”

The short and music video were originally shown at the Orange County and Western Washington county fairs, but had not been officially seen or heard since. They find Yankovic exploring the inner workings of the brain with the help of Sir Paul McCartney, Thomas Lennon, Patton Oswalt, Tim & Eric, Fabio, and a CGI owl voiced by Billy West (Futurama, Doug, Ren & Stimpy).

“Weird Al” recently uploaded both to his YouTube channel, and you can watch them below.
