You're Pitiful
"You're Pitiful" is a parody of "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt written and recorded by American parody musician "Weird Al" Yankovic. It was released exclusively online on June 7, 2006. In the song, Yankovic chides a 42-year-old man who still lives a "pitiful" existence. The song was initially scheduled to be featured on Yankovic's twelfth studio album Straight Outta Lynwood as the lead single.
While Blunt himself had no issues with Yankovic recording the parody, Blunt's label, Atlantic Records, forbade Yankovic from commercially releasing the song at the last minute. Yankovic eventually released the song online as a veritable free single. Furthermore, in music videos and during live performances, Yankovic has made reference to his dispute with Atlantic. Since the initial debacle in 2006, Yankovic has occasionally reached out to Blunt and his label to see if he can release the song on compilations. However, each time that he has approached Atlantic Records, he has been denied permission.
