Free Download 8, Don’t Download This Song! August 22, 2006

Weird Al has released a song about file sharing entitled “Don’t Download this song” (thanks BoingBoing!). You can download it from his MySpace page or from www.dontdownloadthissong.comtracks/DDTS.mp3 when the server recovers from the millions of pirates trying to download it.

The lyrics are a hoot,

“You don’t want to mess with the RI-double-A
They’ll sue you if you burn that CDR
It doesn’t matter if you’re a grandma
Or a seven year old girl
They’ll treat you like
the evil hard-bitten criminal you are…”

and

“…don’t download this song
or you’ll burn in hell
(and you deserve it)…”

It’s good to see artist’s standing up for what they believe in.
