(Al should have had something to do with that show. I think it fits his style perfectly.)

 

Well, it is Christmas time, so I think it time to give this thread a big up for such Wierd Al Christmas songs as The night Santa went crazy and Christmas at Ground Zero.

Everybody's dyin' to know, oh Santa... why?

 

Weird Al can rap better than half the rappers out there.

 

Shows how much you know about rap

 

It does, doesnt it?

 

yes it does.


Weird Al is funny, and he doesn't even have the funniest songs out.

Those belong to the likes of Ludacris, Method Man & Red Man, Missy Elliot, and Eminem

 

Does Weird Al have a new album out or coming out?

Madine out

 

Nope, nothing new yet. He's probably writing stuff up now, though.

 

I'm proud to say that I never found him funny. Never.

!snap

 

Congratulations.

 

Wow. It's been a really long time since I posted in this thread.

And yet, my last post in this thread is on this page.

I guess I should post.

CoolSaber returns to give the Al thread big UP!!!

Also, what's new in the world of Weird Al? Coming soon, his enitre library will be availble for download (legally ) on iTunes.

That's cool. I didn't know that.

 

Yep. Only the Greatest Hit #2 and Bad Hair Day through Poodle Hat are now. That's not even half his stuff.

 

But who here can honestly say they only have one or two albums? I'm only missing the compilation cd's and Alapalooza.

 

I only have one of his songs on CD, but it's one of the best recordings I've ever heard: The Alternative Polka. He didn't have to change the lyrics to jokes or anything; he just played the tunes straight with a polka combo and one-upped the whole genre.

 

I love the polka's. My favorites are the first one, 'Polkas on 45' & the latest 'Angry White Boy Polka'.

As far as my CD collection goes, I have the box set, 'Permenant Record' which has quite a few songs. I also have Dare to be Stupid, Alapalooza, Bad Hair Day, Running with Scissors & Poodle hat. I have a cassette of In 3-D, too.

 

OH MAN!!!!

I found my ticket signed by the band members, and saw Al on a comercial for Jeoproady today and remembered about this thread.


Has anyone heard the new Ben Folds tune w/ Al on backup vocals. Its kinda cool. I bit hard to hear Al though, but its cool.

 

Hello, I haven't posted here in a long-o time. So yeah, Weird Al pwnz!

 

I liked his TV show,I saw him in concert once,and
Weird Al's Eat It!> Michael Jackson's Beat It

 

I love wierd al! I dont know if he would be to keen to do another album anytime soon because didnt his parents die early this year/last year in a car crash? poor guy

 

Not a car crash. Carbon monoxide poisoning.

 

He was on TV for a while a couple years back, but now you don't see him anywhere.

 

He's on Best Week Ever sometimes. I think.

I own one CD and one tape. Yeah, a cassette. My retro coolness owns all of you.
