Had a tough time deciding. I really love most of the parody targets here. But had to go with Eye Of The Tiger.

Eye of the Tiger is possibly my favorite song Al's ever parodied, along with Lose Yourself.
In order:
Eye of the Tiger
Beat It
King of Pain
Jeopardy
Safety Dance

If it had been a different Police song, probably that, but Beat It wins for me here.
Solid targets though. Not a bad song among them, imo

Beat It of course. Bummed he never did a Captain EO song. Imagine a Weird Al Captain EO style video!

In order:
1) "Beat It"
2) "King Of Pain"
3) "Eye of the Tiger" (2 & 3 may switch places, depending on my mood)
4) "The Safety Dance"
5) "Jeopardy" - Al's version is better remembered for a reason

As much as I love Beat It, Eye of the Tiger is my favorite. I love inspirational, Rocky songs!
