Harvey The Wonder Hamster is a song by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It originally appeared on Yankovic's Al TV and Al Music specials on MTV and MuchMusic. It was released on the album Alapalooza in 1993.[1]
Yankovic would introduce his pet hamster, Harvey, sing Harvey's theme song, and after the camera angle changed so a fake hamster could be substituted, Yankovic would dispose of Harvey, often in a violent manner. Harvey continues to make appearances on Al TV and Al Music specials, and appeared on The Weird Al Show as Yankovic's best friend and stunt-performing hamster.
