COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good CD submitted by Ilyjtwya on June 12, 2015, 7:07pm My three favorite songs on this CD are Polka Power (always love the polkas!), Your horoscope for today (style of Mighty, Mighty Bosstones), and Albuquerque. Albuquerque is so funny, but I read that Al intended it to be incredibly annoying. Awesome fail!

One Great Song submitted by valeriemates on August 14, 2021, 10:51am I'm a longtime fan of Weird Al's music. This album has just one song that I like, but I love it dearly, enough that it makes the whole album worthwhile to me. That song is "The Saga Begins" -- where Weird Al adapts the song "American Pie" into a recap of Star Wars episodes 1-3. Oh my goodness - this is so good that it is definitely worth checking out!
