I voted for Under The Bridge, definitely in the running for my favorite original song that Al has ever parodied.
After that there's a big dropoff. Give It Away has a slight edge over Livin On The Edge. Not that into MacArthur Park, and Achy Breaky Heart is absolutely horrible.
In fact, Achy Breaky Song was the first Weird Al song I ever heard. I was very familiar with the original and could barely tolerate it. Then I heard ABS on the radio; it was the first parody I had ever experienced, and I bought Greatest Hits II the very next day. Haven't stopped listening since.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.
