Well they were both on my Xmas list '04, so I might just be able to acquire them for Xmas '05

Welcome. I've heard 'Star Wars Cantina', can you tell me the song it's a parody of?

its a parody of Copacabana. both great songs. i also like "another one rides the bus" parody of "another one bites the dust" and "ode to a superhero" parody of "piano man"

speaking of weird al eminem parodys, any one heard "will the reall slim shady please shut up" parody of "will the real slim shady please stand up" the best line is "walking around sounding like a 12-year-old girl on helium, look at him"

That song isn't really by Al. Al has tons of songs attributed to him on the web that he has never made. He points this out on his webpage and says that every song he has made is on the catalogue page.

I'm way too cold and lazy to try using google, can you give me a link please.

Well for you my good Hockey fan buddy =) Solidarity brother Coop

click the link

yeah a lot of songs have been said to be his when they are not. Barney's on fire, weenie in a bottle, the list goes on and on. But he does not take credit fire them, despite all that.

I like the way he won't take credit for songs which other people have done. Some other people would take credit and get the praise

Thanks for the link, Hanshin.

No prob Coop ! ! !

I am sure I have said this before but I really wish that AL would release albums faster then what he currently does. I understand it takes time to talk to other musicians to get permission to use their material and what not but if you could step it up a little bit for me Al. . . . THANKS

yeah, thast alwasy teh kicker. if he gets an idea for a parody he has to go through both teh actual artist and their record company. Stuff like that takes time, and if they give him permission, then he writes and records it. if not he will have to come up with something else.

I bet he's got an idea for a song before he's got permission though. He just needs to tweak it, so that it sounds great.

I like his parodies they are great but his original stuff isn't as good if you ask me. . .

I would love to see AL put out a whole album devoted to rap. I am a rap fan but I would love to see him mock all the popular rappers like Lil' John, 50, Snoop, Dre, Eminem,
Jay-Z, Kayne West. . .
He did Amish Paradise which was great but he needs more. . . Coolio is too old and washed up.

He does make some good rap parodies, but his original stuff is always awesome. Like albequerque.

But he did the only Cooli song which everyone knows and did it really well.

Coolio also does a great voice on Futurama (kwanzabot)

What I really like about it is the fact that he doesn't just stick to one kind of music. So yeah he has done rap parodys, but he has also done country, pop rock, alternative rock and so on. He is not limited to one thing.

Did you know that Prince is the only artist to turn Al down for doing a parody of his music. He changes his name so much now he is just a symbol but it could have changed by now.

He's very Ecclectic. but I think the only type of parody he hasn't done is classical, because it would have to be an opera.

That would be really impressive though.

weird al opera. I couldn't see that nor would I want to hear that. lol

Don't be ridiculous. It would have polkas in it, for a start. Everyone loves a decent Polka.

Thats true, I love the way I fit into my lederhosen. Nice and tight.

Anyone know if old AL is coming out with a new album?

Somebody might have posted it before but I am too lazy to check.
Also did anyone ever see UHF? Priceless!

Huh? I thought that the Polka was either Polish or Russian, while Lederhosen are German / Austrian / Swiss.

I thought polka was from the Czech Republic. I read that somewhere only recently.
