Weird Al’s ‘Scarif Beach Party’ Is a Star Wars Summer Bop

We knew that “Weird Al” Yankovic wouldn’t simply be showing within the Lego Star Wars Summer Vacation particular, however singing a completely new tune for it. And now that the particular has arrived on Disney+ immediately, the total tune has been launched as effectively, and admittedly? It guidelines.

It’s a brief tune, however it offers me early Miley Cyrus/Carly Rae Jepsen vibes, and I imply that in one of the best ways attainable:

Scarif, if you happen to don’t recall, is the setting for the ultimate act of Rogue One, the planet Jyn Erso, Cassian Andor, and crew infiltrated to steal the Death Star plans, after which all died horribly. It’s an odd location for Lego’s Star Wars model to carry a seaside occasion, particularly since half of the Star Wars galaxy appears to be made up of sand planets. But who’s counting? Here’s the official synopsis for the particular:

“Looking for a much-needed break from Stormtroopers and TIE fighters, Finn arranges a surprise vacation for his friends Rey, Poe, Rose, Chewie, BB-8, R2-D2, and C-3PO, aboard the ultra-luxurious Galactic Starcruiser, the Halcyon. But Finn’s plan to have one last hurrah together quickly goes awry when he’s separated from the group. While searching for his friends, he encounters three Force ghosts: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Leia Organa, who each share their own unexpected stories of vacations gone wrong, helping him to understand that holidays are about more than just having fun.”

Remember, Yankovic performs Vic Vankoh within the particular, which I nonetheless contend is an honest Star Wars title however far, far inferior to Yan Kovic.
