HUGE smile when I started hearing that organ. Nice job, Weird Al!

Good, but I prefer Schaffer the Darklord's Craigslist song.

I've been a Weird Al fan ever since his first album and it never ceases to amaze me how he can capture the sound of a particular band so succinctly. Dog Eat Dog = Talking Heads, Germs = NIN, etc. And those aren't even parodies of existing songs.

I remember seeing an interview with Mark Mothersbaugh regarding Weird Al's Devo-esque "Dare to be Stupid". He summed it up with:

"I hate him..."

The use of desert\Native American imagery was a masterstroke that I suspect will be lost on most viewers.

In another universe, he is Jim Morrison.

True.. and I noticed a few things which were even more profound, in
fact so profound they cannot be mentioned here.

I've always been of the opinion that looking for profundity in Weird Al's work is only going to distract you from enjoying the immense musical and comedic talents of the man.

In all honesty, my favorite Weird Al pieces tend to be his original works, more so than his parodies. "Christmas at Ground Zero", for example, is an amazing number.
