Fishy Fishy, Shrimpy Shrimpy, Taco Ensenada
Basic fish aint that delish so I don't even bother

Ha! That taco place is so close to me that I can get their wifi from my back window. Too bad they don't have any vegetarian stuff (but it's a fish taco joint, natch. I don't complain about steakhouses not having veggie burgers either).

Yet another in the long and hallowed line of parodies that are better than the originals.

A few caught me by pleasant surprise there. I laughed at loud at the floss and caviar lines near the end.

Seriously, this track is produced about a hundred times better than "Gucci Gucci" was.

I've had Gucci Gucci stuck in my head since the original thread. Which is okay. But I think fish tacos will be a big improvement.

I like how the ovary lines were easily the funniest parts of both this song and the original.
Also, I need more shots of her not being able to get up on the hood of the moving car. That was hilarious.

The face she makes right at 2:06 when she says "twitter" is one of the greatest things I've seen in about a week.

Yeah, the failed hood rat moves immediately told me that I like this girl.

That was one thorough parody. She played off every single line from the original, even went to the same locations on Fairfax and in Silverlake for the video. And that's a nice paean to Best Fish Taco in Ensenada. But for fish tacos I have to insist...
Around the corner! Go around the corner!

The lyrics quoted in the post read like something Ray Smuckles would have produced. Sani-Taco!

Didn't want to like it.
Although, I can still be mad about that I definitely want a fucking fish taco now and don't have one.

My homie made the beat, and he's in the video...as the lipstick sidekick.

Why are those tacos in that video and not in my mouth?
Someone is fired.

The delivery is better too, but the only way it could have been worse than the original is if she'd done the whole thing with that taco stuffed in her mouth.
Although it's fun to see video of Kreaysahwn from three years ago, playing with her webcam and being a dork. NSFW audio

The video's cute. But for the best fish tacos in all of greater Los Angeles you gotta go to 5385 Whittier Blvd in East LA to Tacos Baja Ensenada. Trust me. They are cheap, that much better than anywhere else and worth the drive. And they have these incredible roasted chiles as part of their condiments that I would make the drive for alone, and they give them away free! You can thank me later...

exactly - this woman has real delivery, as in: talent.
I gotta say: yes, she owes plenty to Weird Al, but the torch has been passed... the student has surpassed the master.
Fan. For. Life.

Loved this! The original has been a total earworm for me and this parody is done very well. (Even though the very idea of fish tacos grosses me right the hell out, haha.)

Do enough people even know what Gucci Gucci is to warrant a parody? Serious question, I have no idea, but thought it was just some random minor Youtube thing.
For some reason I though this was going to be an actual commercial for a taco place.

Yeah, I had no idea this was a parody. Even after watching the previously clip.

Well, 13M+ views in 3 months is pretty good. So I'd say that among people who watch YouTube often it's pretty well known, which is presumably the target audience for the parody as well.
