The Man is a Genius (and not just in France).
Got the new Weird Al album. Great stuff... ESPECIALLY the parody of Avril Lavigne's "Complicated"... You've gotta hear it... And there's a Backstreet Boys parody in there for Erin about eBay. There are 5 song parodies, the "Angry White Boy" polka (of which I only knew 6 songs!), and several style parodies... There's a great long song at the end called "Genius in France" which is pretty funny, too. The 2nd song "Hardware Store" has this long list of items in the store which sneaks a couple of really funny items in the middle of the list... The first few songs leave you breathless, gasping for air... wondering how anyone could keep up with the pace of the lyrics!
I'll post more about this album after I have a chance to digest it a little bit more... But it's quite wonderful! Go Weird Al!

Really? What BSB song did he use? I'll definitely have to hear it sometime! (Although, I've never used eBay so I'm not so sure I would get all the jokes.)

Ooh, good BSB song. I'm not sure what feedback is, but I definitely know what sniping is. I had some friends that used to do it all the time to get Jimmy Buffet tickets.
