World of Weird Al Yankovic

I also have friends who are casual Al fans at best who go gaga (pun intended) over the Perform This Way video, so I guess you never know.

This is true, everyones opinion is quite different. Usually when people talk to me about Al randomly I hear good things about the album itself but not alot about the lead parody, I hear Craigslist mentioned from people alot lately.

I think people who aren't Al fans only care about Perform This Way because it's the lead single and the one with the video and all that. A song that only Al fans care about on Alpocalypse would probably be Whatever You Like -- You don't see anyone outside this forum talking about THAT particular song.

I'm with Jon on this one, though. Up against the bigger artists, with that visually weak of a video... Doesn't seem like a surefire win.
