This is absolutely ridiculous. Let's just stop.

Anyway, some style parodies that would be really funny, I think would be some rap. I don't think he's ever really done a rap style parody, with the exception of "Twister"... and that was in the late 80s!

Beethoven? It's about time Al did an original composition.
How old was that last signature? I mean, really?

Dio, Skinny Puppy, Buckethead, and System of a Down would be fitting for style parodies as well.

Here's an idea I haven't seen anyone say: a Black Eyed Peas style parody. This would be infinitely better than a direct parody of such a shitty band and has wayyy more potential too.

That's true. He could just make the lyrics super simple. Boom it'd be done.

Super simple lyrics... that sounds like a Rebecca Black song I know. :) Maybe they'll collaborate on the simplest lyrical "masterpiece" ever. Black Eyed Peas feat. Rebecca Black... and THEN Al can style parody THAT. :)

Hey, that would actually work, cause that formula was perfect for (this song's just) six words long

A Black Eyed Peas style parody wouldn't work because each artist has their own distinctive style. Al would have to be multiple people at once for such a parody to work, and I just don't think he'd have the heart to do that.

I believe he said "style parody" not "direct parody"

What do you mean? The Black Eyed Peas definitely have a very distinctive style that would be relatively easy to parody.
