- 0xcde4c3db 10y agoI think this is an underappreciated aspect of his work. He occasionally strays from the path (see e.g. "The Night Santa Went Crazy"), and some of the polka medleys do incorporate some pretty dark songs about sex and violence (e.g. Stone Temple Pilots' "Sex Type Thing" or Foster The People's "Pumped Up Kicks") but it's a good rule of thumb that if a parody/comedy song is particularly profane/offensive/mean-spirited, it's not his work.
- seanmcdirmid 10y ago"Rice rice baby", a notable parody from the 90s that can be seen as racist, is very often missattributed to him but isn't his work.
- 0xcde4c3db 10y agoIf Napster taught me one thing, it's that every song parody has been attributed to Weird Al at some point.
