I dont care for it. Mostly because I listen to it too much and I got tired of it.

"Was the love that you gave
That we made
Was unable to make it enough for you to be open wide"
Out of the whole album, that's still a line that I have trouble with. Oddly enough, it's my favorite, just because it's so hard to say!

hehe, yeah, but seeing Alanis' video in the background going twice as fast is even more hysterical! Again, more footage from a friend.

Seeing as a number of other threads are about rating songs I might as well start it going here.
Amish Paradise - inspired song, really one of Al's better ones. 9.0/10
Everything You Know Is Wrong - good at parts but overall not a real favourite. 6.2/10
Cavity Search - man, this song is so brilliant! They should play this instead of Muzak. 9.6/10
Callin' In Sick - exactly what I like to do on a sunny day. 8.8/10
The Alternative Polka - very catchy and good in parts. 8.4/10
Since You've Been Gone - no instruments whatsoever . He should do this more often. 8.1/10
Gump - a bit short but it's still a good song. 7.2/10
I'm So Sick of You - some good lines but not a real favourite. 6.2/10
Syndicated Inc. - despite what most people say, I actually like this (and hate Albuquerque. So sue me.) 7.9/10
I Remember Larry - not much in the way of melody but the lyrics are amusing. 7.8/10
Phony Calls - catchy and good lines. 8.2/10
The Night Santa Went Crazy - probably the best original I've heard. 9.6/10
Overall: 8.1/10

Amish Paradise Real good parody, good video, nothing bad at all. 9/10
Everything You Know Is Wrong Possibly my favourite Al song ever! 10/10
Cavity Search Haven't heard the original, but still a good song. Never actually had dental work done on me, so the drill doesn't freak me out. 8.5/10
Callin' In Sick This is a good song, but gets a bit boring near the end. 8.5/10
The Alternative Polka I'm going to say something risky. "This is my least favourite polka." 7/10
Since You've Been Gone Brilliant. Why can't this be longer? 9/10
Gump Meh... 7/10
I'm So Sick of You Great song! Good tune, like the organ part. 8/10
Syndicated Inc. I don't hate it as much as other people. 5.5/10
I Remember Larry Good song to sing along to, very catchy. 8.5/10
Phony Calls Don't like the original, this isn't great either. 7/10
The Night Santa Went Crazy Very very catchy, good lyrics too. 8/10

Amish Paradise - Great lyrics, funny concept (an amish talking like a gansta? lol)-9/10
Everything You Know Is Wrong - Again, the second songs are usually my favorites. I LOVE this song. I laugh and laugh. AND I can sing the whole third verse in one breath. While driving. Oh yeah. 10/10
Cavity Search - Oh, I can so relate to this song. Well done, funny, and musically very interesting. 9/10
Callin' In Sick - Funny and fun to sing with. 8/10
The Alternative Polka - This Polka's! Upbeat tempos make the depressing lyrics hilarious. And how about that Accordian Player? 10/10
Since You've Been Gone - Classic. Love it. 10/10
Gump - Awesome. Spot-on. Great vocals, great lyrics. 10/10
I'm So Sick of You - Oh, how I love this song. "You've got the hair of a boxing promotor!" 9/10
Syndicated Inc. - Well, ya know....I don't hate this song. I really don't. But I don't love it. After about the 27th time you hear it, you've kind of "heard it", if you know what I mean. No real deeper meaning or inside jokes to find. 7/10
I Remember Larry - Well, ya know....I don't hate this song either. But it came out after my Uncle Larry passed away so I always skipped it. To this day I really don't listen to it. So...I won't rate it.
Phony Calls - Long car trip? Bring on this song. Short car trip? I'm hitting the skip button. Great use of the Simpsons, and for what it's worth, Al sounds a whole lot like T-boz
7/10
The Night Santa Went Crazy - Spectacular. Amazing. Love it! 10/10
Gotta love the Cover Art as well!
Overall, 9/10 average.

AMISH PARADISE -- 9/10 Very good parody, the video makes it even better.
EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG -- 8/10 Nicely done original. And I like TMBG so yay. (By the way, there's a Powerpuff Girls comic called "Everything You Know About the Powerpuff Girls is Wrong.")
CAVITY SEARCH -- 6/10 Good parody, but it gets kinda boring.
CALLIN' IN SICK -- 9/10 When I heard "Come as You Are", I was surprised by how similar they sounded! It very well could be mistaken for a direct parody.
THE ALTERNATIVE POLKA -- 7/10 This isn't my favorite polka. *hides*
SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE -- 10/10 BEST SONG ON THE ENTIRE ALBUM.
GUMP -- 6/10 Dare I say it...I never liked this song very much.
I'M SO SICK OF YOU -- 9/10 Catchy.
SYNDICATED INC -- 3/10 Dare I say this...I agree with Bruce the Duck. *holds up a shield*
I REMEMBER LARRY -- 5/10 Blah. I gave it a 5 only for the backward message. The song itself is...not good.
PHONY CALLS -- 10/10 This was like, one of the first Al songs I ever heard. This was the song that got me hooked.
THE NIGHT SANTA WENT CRAZY -- 10/10 I love it.
