@l2d8 Al has skills man, unlike many other parody artists, the music and lyrics he writes and the band members he assembles work great

[arrow325]

The talk shows he mentions are dated, but the rest of it is pure awesome.

@vladpiranha I think he still has a lot of good ideas, and the Lady Gaga parody is hilarious!

[l2d8]

@DriftingFWWA A lyrics site says "I sold my kids for cheese".

This is why his prime was in the 90s. His best ideas were in that period. It's just too hard to create a follow up to stuff like this.

[SuperMarioStar10]

haha, THis is a goood song

This is a masterpiece. Weird Al is at his best when he, a) fits ridiculous statements to grandiose or self-indulgent styles of music, and b) becomes not just a parodist but a satirist by spoofing the most materialistic, arrogant, and puerile tendencies of American society. He does both here, in such a funny way that the very targets of his satire often laugh right along, and that is the mark of a comic genius. 'Nuff said.
