Tacky (song)
"Tacky" is a song by American musician "Weird Al" Yankovic from his fourteenth studio album, ''Mandatory Fun'' (2014). The song is a parody of the 2013 single "Happy" by Pharrell Williams. The song mocks questionable taste in fashion as well as activities considered gauche. Yankovic recorded the song as one of the last on ''Mandatory Fun'', and received Williams' approval directly, through email. He remarked he was "honored" to have his work spoofed by Yankovic.
The song's one-shot music video parodies "Happy", and was the first in a series of eight videos released over eight days in promotion of ''Mandatory Fun''. It features cameo appearances by Aisha Tyler, Margaret Cho, Eric Stonestreet, Kristen Schaal, and Jack Black, and was produced by Nerdist Industries.
==Background==
As usual for him, Yankovic sought permission from the original artists for his parodies on ''Mandatory Fun''; in contrast to previous albums, he had few difficulties in obtaining these. Yankovic stated "This is the first time where I've gotten everybody that I wanted, and I couldn't be happier about it."〔 He was able to get Pharrell Williams' permission for three of the songs he represented on the album, Williams' "Happy", Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines", and Daft Punk's "Get Lucky", through a personal email to the artist after Yankovic's manager had difficulty working this with Williams' manager; according to Yankovic, Williams was "honored" to have his work used by Yankovic. The song was recorded in April 2014.〔("Weird Al" Yankovic: Recording Dates ). weirdal.com. Retrieved on June 22, 2014.〕
