The first time I heard a Weird Al song that I knew was Weird Al was Tacky. I suppose that makes me a baby fan still. :lol: Though as I got into his catalogue I realized that I actually knew White & Nerdy quite well though I didn't know back then who it was from. So I guess I was a Weird Al fan before I was a Weird Al fan. :lol:

Also, reading back the thread and seeing the mentions of "Gotta Boogie", I have to mention that I, too, had that exact same reaction - I will never forget the first time I heard it and how hard it made me laugh. Yes, it's juvenile, but that doesn't mean it isn't also very clever.
Love and peace.

My first song I heard was most likely White and Nerdy around 2009 when the video came out on VEVO. I was only 6 or 7 years old (yes I'm only 13) and I listened to the other ones (only from SOL because I didn't care about the others). About a year later me and my dad were listening to funny music on his computer and we found Beverly Hillbillies/Money For Nothing. I kinda liked it, and I still feel the same way. Until about June 2013 I listened to like 1 song every now and then (i remember not being able to find A Complicated Song and having to watch some weird South Park video of it and my parents yelling at me). Around June 2013 I found Everything You Know Is Wrong and that got me hooked.

My first was "Bob". I found it ages ago on Uncyclopedia and didn't realize it was him for a long time.

The first song I heard was "Fat", followed shortly by "Eat It". I was a big Michael Jackson fan as a kid, so one night my dad pulled up the MJ parodies on Youtube. I had no idea who Al was and what a parody was supposed to be, and since sassy child-me always had to oppose my dad, I was like "get this away from me" and I didn't watch the whole thing.
But the next day I was intrigued by Al. I looked him up, and started listening to his music and watching his videos, and in a matter of hours I was hooked for life! I never shut up about him for the next 8 years and counting :P Thanks, Dad!

It's been many a year ago, but it was probably "Eat It" or "Like a Surgeon." However, if I'm naming the one that I heard first since I almost died last year, it would be "Tacky." I like to start from that time as a reference point, since I'm actually living now, rather than existing.
Well, this is it. This IS the last minute!

Fat - first song on The Food Album, which was the first CD I ever got when I was about 6 or 7 maybe?
That album contained the only Al songs I knew until I was about 11 when I saw the video for Smells Like Nirvana (on VHS yay), and then later that year I saw Al live for the first time during the Poodle Hat Tour in 2003 - been hooked ever since!
