      Have you ever watched Epic Rap Battles of History? It's a funny RUclips channel where they have historical figures humorously battle rap each other. There's one between Sir Isaac Newton vs. Bill Nye & Weird Al plays Newton & just spits sick rhymes- it's pretty awesome. You'd enjoy it if you like Weird Al.

      Not even close, man. It's at the bottom of my list of his songs. It beat out my Bologna, which I never cared for, and Spam. BUT, that is my opinion.
      When talking about popularity, with the general populace, I believe the masses just didn't find his music for it to be all that great. The video is fine, though. Amish Paradise is one of the most recognized, second only to White & Nerdy. And few ever remember Hardware Store, which is my personal favorite...favoritism at it's finest. Also, I believe that one is an original, so they wouldn't even list it on either of these.

    The Saga Begins is by far his best parody. The recreating of the song “The Day the Music Died” by Don McLean. The lyrics are on point and explain The Phantom Menace to a “T.” Completely brilliant, “Yoda” would also be in my top 5. The other three would be tough but “Trapped in a Drive Through,” is super brilliant and relatable. My others would probably be some of the Dr Demento stuff though!

    if ya view the video of `bedrock anthem' at the very start, then you would notice that the background of `under the bridge', there is also another song that is represented, `no rain' from blind melon where it has the `bee girl' dancing and the guitar player pokes her in the eyes.

    @snarkus63 3 года назад +2

    I've always thought it interesting that his career started with "My Bologna"...that same year, I heard at least three other parodies of that song, but all with the same title..."Ayatollah"...a scathing commentary of what Americans thought of you-know-who at the time. Whereas whomever wrote and sang those have no doubt fallen into obscurity, Al chose to tap into his inner weirdness and...well, he's still here.

    Bob!!!! Bob! Bob! No-one ever mentions Bob! Easily one of his most brilliant lyrics ever! He does NOT miss an opportunity with that song - perfect parody of Dylan - both the song and the video. Every line in the song is a palindrome ... As is the TITLE! Which also refers to the original ... Plus! Every damned palindrome in the song - RHYMES!!! How do you write a whole bunch of palindromes, in a song titled as a palindrome ... and then make them all rhyme and fit the original song exactly??!!! How does anyone even think of doing that?

  • @shellyross2881

    I really liked Party in the CIA and Word Crimes. I love listening to him criticize people for improper grammar. From what all I have read and heard about Weird Al, he is more than just a funny, talented song writer. He is also a genuinely good guy.
