VH1 Top 100 list

I just read an article on the top 100 songs from the past 25 years. It was no surprise that many of them were parodied by our boy Al! Nirvana, Micheal Jackson, Madonna, Eminem.

Just another reason Weird Al Polkas!!!!!

Yeah- I just posted about this " VH1- The 100 Greatest Songs From The Past 25 Years & Al" under the "Parodies and their Originals" thread.

I was going to add a new topic, but I was not sure I should. I hate always second guessing myself.

Anyway...............WAY to go Al !

I really should read more before I post. OE started a simillar thread under General Chat. There are just always soooo many new posts when I sign in, it's hard to keep up! Oh well it's not like my preschoolers need DIRECT supervision!

Actually OE's topic is about "Al's knack for accurately discerning the spirit of the times," and she only cites the VH1 as an example, among other things. This topic is specifically about VH1's list.

Now I ask, doesn't VH1 do a list like this every year? I seem to remember them doing something like this before. Ah, VH1, the king of repackaging and repeating information.

How many times must VH1 re-do this list? Oy vey.

Maybe they'll give Al another Honorable Mention or he'll comment or something...

You can still be a tool if you want.

Go to the Hardware Store and pick one out. They've got allen wrenches, gerbil feeders, toilet seats, electric heaters....

Is this a new development? If it is, don't be so quick to get mad, cuz it's bound to be due to Al's parody.

Say thank you to Mr. Yankovic, Marshall, on your WAY to the bank with that nice check. Did you get the royalty check yet? Too bad you didn't let him do that video. You could have really raked it in. Just ask Coolio...

Well, I believe last year they did the 100 Greatest or Most Influential Videos. Thriller was number 1, but placed nowhere on this years list.
