Okay, I'm finally trying to cut the number to 20. I've decided I'm not including any polkas, too.

White & Nerdy is the first single to not get old with me in a long time. It's pretty high on my list. (Though it's not the top ranking parody. It's not even my top parody from SOL, if I recall my list)

If it's okay, I'd like to list the top 10 songs that I didn't nominate.

1. The Night Santa Went Crazy
2. Phoney Calls
3. Fun Zone
4. Jerry Springer
5. Smells Like Nirvanna
6. I Love Rocky Road
7. Eat It
8. Living with a Hernia
9. Bohemian Polka
10. A Complicated Song

#1, 6 and 10 were runners up for me also (though 2 of your runners up made my top 10).

I just submitted my list. Had to remove 2 from what I thought was my top 20 to make room for 2 unreleased songs (one really obvious one and one that just squeaked in at #20).

I had 50 at first, this is hard!

I finally got down to 20, I keep wondering if I should redo it or not.

Eat It is definitely not on my list

I have long since accepted it'll probably be in the top 10 all time, however. But I'll still cry softly when I see it......

Haha, what's so bad about Eat It? It's on my list.

It's a good enough song, it's just I don't like the reputation it gave Al as the food guy or a one hit wonder. And even without my feelings for it, I just don't find it standing up to later work.

Oh, fair enough. I prefer Al's older work.

Thank you for scaring the crap out of me and making me think I missed the deadline by adding this to the Handy Dandy List O' Links, dingo.
