      I think Weird Al is quality enough that it's not just a walk. That dude's been on point for 4 decades. But Remy is definitely in the S tier with Al and I can't really think of anyone else who would occupy it besides those two.

    • @TheBoss4711
      @TheBoss4711 3 года назад +7

      Okay well as much as I love Remy this simply isn't true. It's going to take alot, like an Everflowing Chalice with near infinite mana amounts of work, for someone to surpass Wierd Al by this point.
      If there is something that Remy doesn't do as much as Weird Al does, is make the parodies about as long as the actual song, and he changes the lyrics of the chorus more often to not make it as stale.

      @@TheBoss4711 I agree somewhat, but Weird Al doesn't seem to capture anything meaningful in a lot of his parodies. They're meant to be just purely funny instead of also being insightful. At least, that's been my experience.
      Weird Al may have some quality stuff, but a LOT of fluff.
      Remy's line here about voters being more at-risk due to being mouthbreathers is fucking brilliant. It works on like 4 different levels:
      1. The fact that mouthbreathing probably WOULD increase contageousness
      2. The rhyme worked well for such a hard word (indoor-eaters... mouth-breathers)
      3. The fact that politicians believe that voters are idiots and treat them as such
      4. The fact that most voters ARE idiots and put up with this BS
      He has one of these outright gems in nearly every video. "Trigger Night" (MJ parody of Thriller) had a bunch actually.
