For the most part, I agree that he is hilarious and I wish I could get "White and Nerdy" out of my head. I do think he has taken a few songs too far, but not that many.

Weird Al is great....especially in concert. My favorite has always been "Another rides the Bus" a parody of Queen's Another Bites the Dust.
As for taking some songs too far, well that is strictly between him and the folks who hold the copyright for the songs he parodies, such as Amish Paradise. He makes wonderful comedy music and keeps folks laughing - laughter is important.

Greatest Musician Ever!!!!
The only problem I have is with people that claim some songs are Al's when in reality, Al had nothing to do with the songs. Some examples of these include; "Baby Got Back", "Which Backstreet Boy Is Gay", "Barney's on Fire", "Dirty Deeds (Done with Sheep)", "I Ran Over the Taco Bell Dog" and "Walking 'Round in Women's Underwear"

Yeah, Weird Al's parody songs are funny. My favorite is "Amish Paradise". I don't think he takes them too far though, they're a good alternative to alot of pop music today.

Yes - He's hilarious.
I first heard of him in the 80's when I saw the parody of Michael Jackson's 'Beat it', which was called 'Eat it'.
My top 3 favourite videos are;
1. "Amish Paradise"
(Parody of "Gangster's Paradise" by 'Coolio')
2. "Smells Like Nirvana"
(Parody of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by 'Nirvana')
3. "It's all about the Pentiums"
(Parody of "It's all about the Benjamin" by 'Puff Daddy')
The latest track is a take on "Ridin Dirty" by 'Chamillion'.
See the following link for Weird Al's take called "White and Nerdy".

I have two sons 9 and 15 and they both listen to him and love it. I think he is an idiot but I feel that his stuff is done for a laugh not to offend so therefore if it is in the name of laughter, I say GITTR DONE!! LOL

He runs hot and cold. On "Dare To be Stupid" the parody songs flopped, but the mimicry songs and the comedy songs rocked out, especially "One More Minute"
