I mean, I know that "Don't Download This Song" was released first, but that wasn't a parody. So, because it's a single, AND a parody, doesn't that mean it'll most likely be the lead parody?
Goodness. I hope not.

It is, but even "fans" are allowed to be less than thrilled. As long as criticism is constructive and not just "it sucks!"
This means something. This is important.

Weird Al releases cover of 'Whatever'

"Satirical cover"? Is that how the kids are calling it these days?

Cute pic on the article, though.

It's a good song. Might not be a lead parody. He still has about five more parodies to record, if he keeps with tradition. I don't think it's a slam to say it might not be a lead parody. I still love the song, but hey, we all can't have the same opinion.

Btw, is there such a thing a cheapskate braggadocio? Because there might be now with this song.

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

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

So awesome!

Personally I hope it's not the lead parody. It's a good song, but not great. I would rate this more along the lines of a filler parody, but that's me.
I was elected to lead, not to read.

It may have been the case at one time, but premium channels aren't even offered on most analog cable setups anymore, you need to have a digital box to receive them.

Considering the original song(IMO) is weak, Al did a pretty darn good job with this one. There is so much junk out there(it seems so many of those "R&B" songs sound the same) you have to think it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.
