Weird Al's songs are just so clever. There is fefinitly an art to doing a song paraody and he has mastered it better than anyone.
It's hard for me to pick a favorite, but I might have to say "THe saga Begins" is my favorite. It's sort of ironic, since I didn't really like the movie "episode 1", but I just love how he used American Pie to link with Star wars. The video is pretty hilarious too!

More recently I also find "Whitey and Nerdy" especially hilarious. I guess the very fact that I started this discussion shows I'm pretty nerdy:-)
What are your favorites?

I think The Saga Begins is a close second to "You Don't Love Me Anymore." Seriously, everytime I hear that one, I'm amazed by how funny it is. I think a lot of Weird Al's original songs are over looked.
Oh, and I love his polka medlies. Those are also hysterical.

"You don't love me anymore" is hilarious! That's another great video, the parody of that Extreme video from a while back.

Hm for me the funniest song that weird al wrote was "Do i creep you out" I have no idea who the american idol contestant was that he was imitating was though.
My other favorites would have to be White and Nerdy along with Trash Day funny songs XD i doubt anyone can keep a straight face when listening to his songs.

I really love the older stuff... Like really old - cassettes I had when I was ages 6-9... I used to love "Our Love's In Jeopardy", "Another one Rides the Bus", "Eat it", "Gonna Buy Me a Condo", "I'm Fat", "The Check's In the Mail" and all those oldie but goodies. I also love some of the stuff from the 90s like "Amish Paradise"

I would have to say that my favorite Weird Al songs would have to be Yoda, Star Wars Cantina, Cats in the Kettle, Don't Download this song, Trigger Happy, Night Santa Went Crazy, Christmas at Ground Zero, Pretty Fly for a Rabbi, and Confessions Part 3.

There's no ONE favourite song for me...
Amish Paradise, Constipated, White and Nerdy and Canadian Idiot are the best in my opinion.
Are the songs written by Weird Al or by some songwriter?
