1. Ebay
2. Genius in France
3.Angry White Boy Polka
4.Hardware Store
5.Trash Day
6.Bob
7.Party at the Leper Colony
8.A Complicated Song ("my neck is enjoying a pleasant breeze" sends my serotonin soaring!!! )
9.Ode to Superman
10.Couch Potato
11.I wanna be your Lover
12. Why does this Always Happen to Me

Good God, I LOVE this album!!!!!

I always end up picking Alpocalypse because the only tracks staying around are CIA and PTW and although I like them a lot, I don't think I like those songs better than tracks off of the other ALbums.

I'm picking the first album for sure. After that it's a bit of a choice between Polka Party and UHF, but I eventually decided UHF as my second least favorite because of all the non-musical stuff on it and beyond that there are only a couple songs that I like.

Omg but the originals are sogreat!!! Imma let you finish but Skipper Dan is one of the best songs of ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME.

I'm gonna admit, most Al albums have those songs with no appeal at all except for Running With Scissors and Mandatory Fun (where all the songs have actually managed to get me out of boredom)

By that, I mean most of them have those songs that nobody really looks at or otherwise dislikes. It's some of the more popular ones (e.g the ones with music videos) that seem to delight Al fans and even common non-Al fans themselves.

Oh, I agree, the originals are prime indeed. I wish he would have kept Skipper Dan instead of PTW. Even though the Octopus costume is awesome.

Alapalooza because it has only 2 good originals on it those being Franks 2000" TV and Harvey The Wonder Hamster. I lik ed all the parodies and the polka was ok.

No, Young, Dumb & Ugly is as awesome as anything except maybe Frank's. Traffic Jam and She Never Told Me She Was A Mime are musical pieces of wizardry! More Traffic Jam but I love the guitar leads in SNTMSWAM, and Young, Dumb & Ugly is a hilarious rocker with some great riffage. Will never be able to pick a worst ALbum personally, I love them all so much.

Traffic Jam has one of my favorite lines ever: "I left home five hours ago but I can still see my house from here!"

Young Dumb & Ugly is OK Waffle King is OK But She Was A Mime, Talk soup and Traffic Jam are his 3 worst songs in my opinion.
