A Baker's Dozen Of "Weird Al" Parody Songs

Okay, so obviously the theme of the day is "Weird." Being a writer of several parody songs myself (maybe I'll share them here someday), I've always been a fan of "Weird Al" Yankovic. Not only are his songs spot-on at satirizing pop culture, they're also extremely well-done, technically speaking. With their numerous visual jokes, the music videos are so much better than just listening to the songs themselves. Here are 13 of "Weird Al"'s all-time best... Enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  "Smells Like Nirvana"  (parody of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana)




2)  "Gump"  (parody of "Lump" by The Presidents of the United States of America)




3)  "Amish Paradise"  (parody of "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio ft. L.V.)




4)  "Fat"  (parody of "Bad" by Michael Jackson)




5)  "White & Nerdy"  (parody of "Ridin' Dirty" by Chamillionaire ft. Krayzie Bone)




6)  "Headline News"  (parody of "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" by Crash Test Dummies)




7)  "Perform This Way"  (parody of "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga)




8)  "Like A Surgeon"  (parody of "Like A Virgin" by Madonna)




9)  "I Love Rocky Road"  (parody of "I Love Rock 'N' Roll" by Joan Jett and The Blackhearts)




10)  "Eat It"  (parody of "Beat It" by Michael Jackson)




11)  "Another Tattoo"  (parody of "Nothin' On You" by B.o.B. ft. Bruno Mars)
