Since I am only relagated to posting in here, I guess this is the place I'll have to post this. :-)



From http://www.bnlblog.com - the Barenaked Ladies Blog

Ok this is an old off the topic from war politcs etc. I was watching on VH1 a program about how Coolio reacted to Weird Al's version of Ganstas Paradise. Being a true BNL fan I of course bought his album with the one week parody. How did you feel about it? Immitation is supposidly the best form of flattery. Of course being One week is your most popular song (not really your best if I had to be honest) do you feel that you have "made it" when Weird Al does one of your songs?
Asked by Old School and answered by Steve on Friday, May 20

Weird Al is awesome. He is exactly as you would hope - just as geeky and friendly and totally into music. Having Weird Al do your song is one of the pinnacles of "making it". That, and having someone sing "Iiiit's been" at me last night at a dessert buffet, and then pretend they didn't say anything.



Cool eh?

Very cool. But I thought newbies could also add stuff to existing topics? Anyhow, you're certainly not a new name to comedy music. Welcome! And thanks for the post!
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

I could add to an existing post, but I figured this desreved it's own thread. I apologize if there was somewhere more appropriate to post it. I am a newbie after all.

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!
