Yankovic Released "You're Pitiful" Free

In 2006, "Weird Al" Yankovic recorded "You're Pitiful" after, he says, James Blunt approved the parody of "You're Beautiful." Yankovic planned to make it the lead single from Straight Outta Lynwood, but Blunt's label, Atlantic Records, objected to a commercial release. Yankovic's label left it off the album, so he offered it as a free download instead.
