It's Monday, so I'm sure you're in need of a pick-me-up. This video is sure to make you smile, and it won't let you stop.
Comedy Central aired its annual fundraiser for autism schools, programs and services, the Night of Too Many Stars, Sunday night. We already had a big laugh when Adam Sandler and Bob Barker went in for Round Two to continue their Happy Gilmore feud in a video released before the event aired. Now another video from the Night of Too Many Stars is making the rounds on the Internet today, and it's a lot more delightful.
Weird Al Yankovic performed his classic Jedi ballad "Yoda" during the Night of Too Many Stars Sunday night. While it's always a pleasure to see Weird Al don his Jedi robes and belt this parody of The Kinks' "Lola," his Night of Too Many Stars rendition was probably the best one ever because 13-year-old Jodi DiPiazza, who has autism, sang it with him and basically stole the show.
You've probably heard of DiPiazza before, even if you don't know her by name. Back in 2012, DiPiazza became something of an instant celebrity when she performed "Firework" with Katy Perry during that year's Night of Too Many Stars.
This year, DiPiazza resumed her place behind the piano and sounded even better as she harmonized with Weird Al for most of the "Yoda" duet. DiPiazza's solid vocals combined with Weird Al's jolly swaying back-and-forth will just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. When Weird Al and DiPiazza are joined by other children with autism who provide back-up vocals for their grand finale, it's official. This is the loveliest thing you will see on the Internet today.
Check out the full video below, and be prepared to get chills.
