OE, I will concede your point. I still think BHD was a much bigger hit as Amish Paradise punctured the pop realm more than either RWS single, but platinum is platinum. Either way, seven years is still a while and I don't think Al would want to make any mistakes like the Eminem situation which would lead to less success. I'd much rather wait for Al to get the perfect chance for a huge hit than to get a quick album with a sub-par parody. You know with this wait Al is going to have a killer new album.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

You still have a good point, though, TMBJon. The quickness of BHD going gold/ platinum helped define it as a smash success, as well. RWS wasn't too far behind, was it?
True. Anyone have $27,000 laying around? Oh, wait! What year was that? Prices have probably gone up.

...being so close to an album and having that juicy comedy carrot dangled in front of us . . .

Lets just hope that Al does indeed get his come-uppance in respect to that. And, just think, BHD sold as well as it did without a video. RWS had at least two that I can think off of the top of my head, and didn't sell as well. Here's hoping that perhaps with a marketable single (and subsequent video) that the fourthcoming album can become a multi-platinum hit.Orthography Enthusiast @ Jul 3 2006, 09:52 PM wrote: After having album-besetting problems with lead-parody original artists (or their peeps) on TWO albums in a row, Al undeniably deserves a smash hit. By any definition.
