My favorite unreleased AL songs are:

Nobody Here But Us Frogs

American Slob

Won't Eat Prunes Again

Dead Car Battery Blues

and still a classic after more than thirty years:
Belvedere Cruisin'

btw, Polkamon was on the Pokemon movie soundtrack and the Yoda Chant is on the live DVD, so I don't consider either of them unreleased, or they'd have undoubtedly made the list.

Those go in the same category with "Hey Food". The only 1978-79 songs that I know are recorded are:
Beverly Hillbillies/Miss You
Belvedere Cruisin' 78
And the food medley I posted about earlier
Well, that's not including demos. Just live songs.

I'm quite late to the whole unreleased songs thing, but I really like I'll Repair for You and some of the songs from food medleys (especially Whole Lotta Lunch and Chicken Pot Pie).

as far as live songs, I like "moldy now", "laundry day", and "Flatbush/Fairfax Avenue". also "beverly hillbillies/miss you" is another good one.
as far as demos/ recordings, I like "dead car battery blues", "nobody here but us frogs" , "baby ;likes burping", and some others that are not on my mind.

I do like "Babalu Music" as well.

yeah on weird als website it said in 1982 he performed house of the sesame seed bun in a food medley

i wish i could hear it

Looks like he only played it at one show, so unless someone has a recording of that show we may never hear it. I doubt it's any good though since there are way too many syllables in sesame seed bun to make a good parody of House of the Rising Sun.

acually yeah there is too much sylables but in house of the rising sun the guy sings it he puts a littel more of hes voice in ti

and weird al makes hes parodies go faster than the originals

i dont know how else to say it
its hard to explain
