- setgree 5y agoI loved this! And the fact that I was parsing its lyrics for meaning suggests I’ve become too immersed in the culture for my own good
- sidewndr46 5y agoAs a long time fan of Weird Al, I've always been impressed with his knowledge of culture specifically outside his own domain. Making satire of Prince & Eminem is straightforward, they are basically his peers. What I'm impressed with is how does he get the insight into things like corporate America? Other songs like "It's all about the Pentiums" are satire, but they are accurate satire of a very early, nascent culture. It's rare that an entertainer can gain so much insight into things outside their own field.
