World of Weird Al Yankovic

Thanks for the pics. :9~

Let me just give you guys my 27 cents. Ok, I am 13 years old, and when I listened to WBUL, I just laughed. I understood every line without them going over my head, because that it was the youth has been exposed to lately online and on TV. I think Al was trying to give us a love song that didn't end up with broken hearts, but allowed his fans to take each line as far as they wanted. With the lava flow line, at first I was thinking, "WHOA! Did my hero just say that?" and now I just think, "Man, where does he come up with this stuff."

Basically, if you want to get into how Al went too far with this song, be our (By our I mean the fans who like the song) guests, but don't blame him, its your minds that took the extra step of putting one and one together.

Oh, and for the youtube thing, see if you or one of your friends/relatives can transfer the VHS to DVD then you can upload it there.

Great song. I love all the weird bleeps and bloops throughout the song, as well as Al’s vocals (despite not being that way inclined). This is kind of random, but the line “You'd look like Venus de Milo/If I just cut off your arms” reminds me of one of my favorite AC/DC songs, “Touch Too Much”:

Bon Scott wrote: She had the face of an angel
Smiling with sin
The body of Venus with arms

That line just reminds me of a stalker I have...

At least you have someone who loves you.

I have a friend who went to an Al-concert during the PH Tour, and Al sang to his mom during WBUL. His family and him say that Al sang to her during a line that went "I want to be the cheese on your nacho". But there's no line in the song that goes like that. Any guesses to what the line may have really been?

Could it be this

I wanna be your beef burrito
Am I making this perfectly clear?

I could be wrong, but isn't Al known to swap in lines like that if he, chance, forgets a line? Especially during the early dates of the tour, I've heard stories of this happening.

It could be that, but it was during the 2nd leg of the American tour, so I doubt that he forgot. but you never know.

It could also be (and probably is) that my friend just remembered the line wrong.

I'm sorry to say I think it's more likely that your friend remembered the line wrong. Al's heard the song more often.

OE, who will NEVER forget the "beef burrrito" line.

Indeed. I have a recording of a live performance of King of Suede lying around where he forgot the lyrics to one of the choruses so he actually repeated the same lines for the second one in the third one. Or something like that.
