Weird Al

[Dan #1]

Im sure most of you are aware of his music. Its very funny and creative. Just recently i heard the Star Trek Rhapsody.... great stuff. Anybody else enjoy his comedic music?

[Lauren]

I hate Weird Al. I don't find it funny at all. But then, I'm British.

[Dan #1]

If i listen to him too much its just... blah

just that star trek one was great ;)

 

Adam sandler does the same type of stuff too.

Weird Al is The Man. Alapalooza was the very first album I ever bought, and half my friends say that it was their first album too. His medley polkas are hilarious, as well as 'Albequrque' and 'Amish Paradise'.

 

P.S. Beware the false Weird Al songs. Those really piss me off because the majority of them are really crappy and they tarnish his artistic image.

[Dan #1]

There are "fake" Weird Al songs out there ;)

never knew that...

[Lauren]

i enjoy adam sandlers and jimmy fallons (i miss both) renditions. and they are good looking too.

[Jay]

Al rules, quite funny in interviews and in songs.

[Hyphnip]

Yeah, fake Weird Al sucks anus.

[ToadMan]

Weird Al rocks!!

 

I own a number of his albums... I was going to buy the new one, but I hate paying $26 for a CD.

 

Peace

It's fairly easy to find out if a song is a 'fake' Weird Al song. Just search for the song on Amazon or CDNow.

 

I love the Arrogant Worms and 3 Dead Trolls In A Baggie too. Deadpan Canadian humour always amuses me ;)

I liked that song "Angery White Boy Polka"...not sure if its fake or not though

[Hyphnip]

No, that one wasn't fake, that was on his album "Running With Scissors"

[Dan #1]

I had that Jurasic Park (sp?) one...

 

dont know where it got to... he is in movies too right?

[ToadMan]

weird Al did UHF... I dunno about others... he had a TV show for a while.

 

Peace

Where is weird Al now... i havent heard about him in ages...

[Lauren]

he put out a new album.. 'poodle hat' or something, and both of his parenst died recently in a house fire deal i think.

[Hyphnip]

It wasn't a fire, it was a gas leak.

[Crusader]

I like Weird Al though his songs are stupid ;) But they were meant to be.

[Dan #1]

What an unfortunate incident to happen to his parents ;)... really saddening. Hope he gets through it okay.

[Hyphnip]

I find it strange that he kept touring after his parents death. Even stranger that people still go to his concerts.
