OT: best Weird Al Song

Submitted by JDeanAuthor on March 25th, 2020 at 9:19 AM

So I saw Weird Al's rendition of Classical Gas HERE and it got me to thinking: what's your favorite Weird Al song?

It can be a parody, an original done in a particular group's style, or a polka.

I think mine is "Jerry Springer" (parody of "One Week" by the Barenaked Ladies)

Since I didn't see this mentioned, and I think it's brilliant. It's an obvious send-up of Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues," with the twist that every single line in the song (not to mention the title) is a friggin' palindrome!

I dunno about best song... but here's his best look...I'm sure a lot of you liberals can relate.

Albuquerque - and actually got to see it live in Cleveland. Loved Like a Surgeon live in Columbus a long time ago along with Fat (good prop songs). Kick myself that I didn’t book him at our college in the early eighties. Have actually driven by his boyhood neighborhood in Downey CA  Ok a bit obsessed....and find it hard to pick a favorite tune. Even DVR’d a recent My Little Pony episode because he voiced a cowboy Pony.
