World of Weird Al Yankovic

I'm glad you like it here. We all love Al, and we all get along, so it's a win-win situation. Welcome aboard, Heather!

Yup, Al's a listener. I think the fact that he doesn't always have to be joking and making himself the center of attention is just a reflection of the fact that he's a healthy guy who's managed to become a genuine adult without losing the child inside.

Heh, losing the child within is what those two baka-nei-nios suffered from, if I do say so myself.

I think they DROWNED their inner child. [burp!]

Too bad that's not an arrestable offense.

I personally thought this article was pointless. They were basicly saying "Al, I can't believe you got this far because I didn't think you had much talent." Well, obviously he DOES because I've tried parodying songs, and it's not as easy as it seems. Plus, the accordion is a HARD instrument to play. I greatly respect anyone who can play it. And hey, it's parody, and it's comedy. That's what Al does. If he wrote the songs he parodied, it would be pointless. So I just can't believe why these people would want to critisize Al. He's very talented and has had an excellent career since the early 80s. These guys obviously don't know Al.

Not to mention how difficult it must be to hoist it over your head.

Haha exactly.

Yeah, Bobbi, not only can he hoist that accordion over his head, but he looks pretty darn hot while doing it. I don't know of any other accordionists who even do that.

So, take that, tweak.com!!

I second that!
