weird al submitted by a2sue on July 13, 2013, 9:55pm bedrock anthem is really funny

Weird Al is the best! submitted by tbbrown76 on August 2, 2014, 7:10pm I love his parodies of pop songs.

Still Polka-ing submitted by Fevvers - STAR473 on August 7, 2014, 3:59pm Not my favorite Weird Al album, but listening to his songs that I'm not so into (just haven't yet learned to REALLY appreciate the polka thing) actually makes me appreciate how good a musician he really is. This is a good, quirky album. And "Bohemian Polka" is pretty brilliant.

Ok edition submitted by Ilyjtwya on June 12, 2015, 7:02pm I love Weird Al, but I have to admit this is not one of my favorites by him. Jurrasic Park is funny, although you need to have watched the (90s) movie to get all the references. The song it is based on, MacArthur Park by Jimmy Web, may actually be weirder than the parody, look up the lyrics.

Medium Work submitted by jibkidder on July 3, 2022, 10:44am The fact of Al's enduring presence, even in an information environment where you could imagine it might be easy for parody artists to find an audience, is a testament to his prowess. That said, this is not a particularly strong work of his. Perhaps the standout is Bohemian Polka.
