Re: Weird Al
Still one of the best live shows I've ever seen (although it was enhanced by some psychedelics).i got bugs wrote:We were just talking the other night.. about how awesome it would be to see a wierd Al concert..

Re: Weird Al
I remember being impressed with the musicianship involved. For some reason, seeing it play out on a video is not the same as seeing this goofball and his cheeseband play masterfully right in front of you. And the show was genuinely funny.
I dig Al. I like anybody who is that talented and yet not at all above a cheap laugh.

Re: Weird Al
I'm so fucking out of touch with modern pop music. I don't even know the original. But I quite like parody.

Re: Weird Al
word crimes is still the best of the bunch so far
At first I was pretty underwhelmed with Foil, I was all "oh great another weird al song about eating" but it totally redeems itself in the second half.

Re: Weird Al
Always laugh at this line in "Handy:" "I got 99 problems but a switch ain't one."
The originals are pretty good too. "First World Problems" is a quite excellent Pixies-style song: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x21fc7 ... lems_music

This is how I picture most RM'ers.

Re: Weird Al
the new album is fantastic. Favorite song is either "Word Crimes" or "Jackson Park Express."

Re: Weird Al
My least favourite song on the album. Quite like the animation style of the video, though.
