Weird AL Has a Top Ten Hit
 
The first of his career and its actually really funny. Its called "white and nerdy" and is parodying a rap song "Ridin'" by Chamillionaire and Krayzie Bone. I dont know who they are either but you dont have to to enjoy the song.

I just heard it today and enjoyed it. its got some funny lines like "im a champion of d and d, stephen hawkings in my library,got people begging for spots on myspace, do calcus for fun".

"They see me roll on my segueway I know in my heart they think Im white and nerdy"

"whiter than sour cream, i was in v club and glee club and the chess club"

So any of you guys heard it ? I haven't heard weird al in years but its good to see he can still do something interesting.

The only album I've heard in its entirety from Weird Al is "Even Worse", I remember that song "This Song is Just Six Words Long" parodying George Harrison's "I've Got My Mind Set On You"

Yeah ive heard it. They play the video constantly on VH1- ive come across it at least 3 times just flipping channels. Its pretty funny too. I was a huge Weird Al fan when I was in elementary and middle school and his stuff is surprisingly still good. Rock on, Al!

dude! I had that on tape and loved it! Ah the classics like "i think i'm a clone now', and that song about pulling wings off flies.

I heard the song on youtube a few weeks ago and actually got a kick. I heard he also did a parody of trapped in the closet which i'd liek to hear. Esp since he probably can't over top the insanity of the original, maybe equal it... but nothing can top how fuckin nuts the original is.

Good Weird Al songs:
What If God Smoked Cannibus?
All About The Pentiums


I think that's all of them.
