Guys
I hope someone can help me.

I heard a live Weird Al song on the radio here in Ireland a while back, and I'm looking for the complete lyrucs.

It was the funniest thing I've ever heard, but I don't know what the title of the song was...can anyone piece it together from what I can remember...?

It was a sort of a love song, sung to a woman, asking if she could remember all the wonderful things they'd done and seen, and then the song went "Well I don't, cos I was drunk!"

Sorry, thats about all I can remember!

If anyone can help me out i'd be very grateful.
Thanks
DM

Sorry, I don't think that's Al. A lot of songs are attributed to him, but aren't him. An excellent resource for Al's actual song lyrics is alsongs.com. They have a search engine where you type in the lyric you remember and it will find the song it's in for you. If it's not an Al song, nothing will come up.

I hope you find what you're looking for and then find some Al songs you enjoy.

Okay this topic could also go here. There's no need to start a topic if its only going to last a couple replies. That's why scottidof started that topic that I've directed you to.

Anyways welcome to WOWAY. I hope you enjoy your stay. One more thing I'd recommend that you don't start any topics for about a month until you come accustomed to this place. You can still post just don't start any topics.

:xmas:

No it doesn't have to be a month :sarcasm:. I just picked that because that should give the newbie enough time to come accustomed to WOWAY. If you haven't noticed lately there's been A LOT of duplicates or topics that should be in the Generic Al Blather topic that scottidog started. I'm getting a little frustrated with these duplicates and I'm not the one who has to close them or move them which can be very tedious.

Am I the only one who gets really annoyed going on to a file-sharing program, searching for "Weird Al Yankovic" and coming up with thousands of comedy songs not by him? It annoys many, because not only do people seeking Weird Al get terrible, unprofessional song parodies but the rightful artists songs are credited to him and it must hurt Al to have himself credited for junk such as "The Vagina Song" or "F*** The Macarena". How can we stop this from happening because we really need a way..?

ALL of us here agree totally, but there isn't really much we can do. Rename your files to "Not by Weird Al" or better still, withdraw from filesharing altogether. People just will not learn.

We have a topic for this already.
