That whole chunk of the article about "You're Beautiful" take-offs just baffled me. Gleeson didn't do a real version of the song, he just did a comedy riff around Blunt's song. And by what criteria could "My Cubicle" possibly be considered superior to Al's song?

I think it's another of those cases where Al makes it look so easy that people underestimate his artistry.

And I'm even happier that it's Chamillionaire who's splitting those lead-single royalties with Al, not Blunt.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

I dragged this gem out from the trenches of the widely-unseen 1980 season of "Saturday Night Live"...

This reminds me so much of Al!! (It actually seems like something that would've been a phony movie trailer on The Weird Al Show...)

Dumb N00b, that is awesome! Thanks for that link.
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

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

So awesome!
