"I Can't Watch This" is a song by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It is a parody of "U Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer. The lyrics indicate the singer is watching an exceptionally bad TV program. This song and "The White Stuff" were originally pressed to be made into singles for public distribution, but they were never released. "I Can't Watch This" was one of the eight songs recorded for ''Off the Deep End'' in 1990; the others were "The Plumbing Song", "The White Stuff", "When I Was Your Age", "You Don't Love Me Anymore", "Trigger Happy", "Airline Amy", and "Waffle King", which was released on the "Smells Like Nirvana" single. The song mentions many TV shows and networks, such as ''America's Funniest Home Videos'', ''Twin Peaks'', and HBO. Overdubbed over the bridge is a "commercial medley". This section contains re-recorded bits of various famous commercials. Several of the notable commercials featured include the Energizer Bunny's "they keep going and going", "I've fallen and I can't get up!", "This is your brain on drugs," and Excedrin's "when you've got a headache this big!" The tempo of the song is slower than Hammer's original version, due to Al not being an accomplished rapper at the time. Later hip-hop tracks covered by Al (including "White And Nerdy") and other original songs (specifically "Hardware Store") would show that Al had mastered rapid locution. ==Track listing== The following tracks are on the promo single: # "I Can't Watch This" – 3:31 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I Can't Watch This」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
