You've twisted my arm
Although I could probably listen to any given "Weird Al" song repeatedly for weeks on end, I guess there are a few I'm not as into as the rest. I fnd that on each album, there's always that one song I just can't get into as much as I can with the rest. Prime examples of this would be "Traffic Jam", "Callin' In Sick" and "Eat It" (The latter being simply because I've heard it so many times as the definitive Al song from the not-so-hardcore fans that I can't appreciate it as much as I can the majority of his work.
However, I have no beef with "Christmas At Ground Zero".

I'm a huge Al fan, but, as with my adoration of The Beatles, I can't deny the fact that there are a few duds in his catalog. A few that I'll admit I tend to skip:
Buy Me A Condo
Don't Wear Those Shoes
Here's Johnny
The White Stuff
The Plumbing Song
Waffle King
The Bohemian Polka
Slime Creatures From Outer Space
Um... that's more than enough, I think. I don't want you all to hate me on my first night of posting.

Songs I skip
Here are some songs that while I don't hate I tend to skip:
Trigger Happy (Though it's a good parody of Beach Boys songs)
When I was your age
Taco Grande (I listen to it sometimes but not others)
The Plumbing Song
My Baby's in love with Eddie Vedder
Truck Driving Song (Joke gets old very fast)
Callin' in Sick
Phony Calls
Since you've been gone
I like Nature Trail to Hell as it has a good instrumental bit and is a good parody of the Friday the 13thesque slasher films, I also like Fat and Eat it, I like Addicted to Spuds, the White stuff and others.
But the only song I really hate, though sometimes I listen to it is Xmas at Ground Zero! Hands down! If you like it fine, but don't try and get me to like it

Soap's more intelligent then you!

Least Favorites
I'd have to agree that "Phony Calls" is one of his weaker parody efforts, but I think my least favorite parody would have to be "The Plumbing Song". Maybe the fact that it was based on Milli Vanilli taints it a bit, but I never really thought plumbing was necessarily the funniest song subject he could have come up with.
Least favorite original? Definitely "I Was Only Kidding". Just for the record (since it seems to be getting a lot of flack around here), I think C@GZ is GOLD! I always thought this song was a universal favorite, so I have to ask if it was your least favorite BEFORE the tragic events on 9/11?
Least favorite album? Gotta say "Even Worse". No real BAD songs on this one, but overall not his best work. I like "Lasagna", "Velvet Elvis", "Melanie" and "Six Words Long" quite a bit, but the rest of it isn't his strongest stuff. Besides, there's something kinda wrong about an Al album (post-1984) with no polka medley!
