World of Weird Al Yankovic

A few pages back, a newbie posted the link to the Amazon UK page for Alpocalypse.

Thank you, but we're quite aware of that!

Thank you, but I was answering Wizzerkat's question.

Those clips better not be gone by the time I get home! Grr.

Just checked, clips are still there

Thanks! As I said I even went through the pages(or so I thought). Either way, it will be better to get the whole song. It usually takes me a little bit to get used to new songs. I am just getting to like the Polka..

TMZ - Sounds way too fast for me. I know all the songs are sped up slightly, but this one sounds just way too fast. Gotta hear the rest to see for sure.

Party in the CIA - Looks like it's from the perspective of a CIA agent and not the organization as a whole. Should be good. Is it me or is Al's voice auto-tuned in this one?

Whew, I got to hear 'em too. Okay Al, you can make them take those down now.

TMZ and Party in the CIA don't sound like he varied the speed much to me, but he did lower the keys of them. And there's autotune on every Weird Al song. You can especially hear it on SOL on songs like Pancreas, Confessions Part III and Trapped in the Drive Thru. (Most every record produced today has some degree of autotune on it. If you don't hear it most of the time, that means it's doing its job.)

I started watching the whole thing. Its fun to hear him talk about things that were not yet done and now are. Someone asked himi if he could parody Lady Gaga. Only if he knew back then what he knows now lol

Well it's only a 30 second clip, but right now Stop Forwarding that Crap to Me is reminding me most of this:

Of course we'll have to see where he ends up taking the song.

Can't get TMZ outta my head, definitely frontrunner for most plays on my playlist. Honestly I don't think there's a track on this album I won't like.
I, too, could hear Meatloaf in SFTCTM, but then again it could just be wishful thinking. If that song ends up playing out like "I Would Do Anything For Love" I think my head will explode
