Review of: Straight Outta Lynwood
Artist: "Weird Al" Yankovic
Track 1: White And Nerdy
Briliant, a great lead off track. it proves that Al hasnt lost his touch, and can parody pretty much anything. if you havent seen the video for this song yet, DO SO NOW! its an amazing video.
"I memorized Holy Grail really well, i can recite it right now, and have you ROTFLOL"
Track 2: Pancreas
Although it kinda starts out slow, once this track gets going it dosent start. With such a happy sound i cant not love this song. and now, i love my pancreas too!
"Dont you know, you gotta flow flow flow, pancreatic juice, flow flow, into the duodenum"
Track 3: Canadian Idiot
Meh. being a canadian myself i dont really find the parody or its stereotypes that funny. Cudos on useing the word hosehead though.
"and do I look like some frostbitten hosehead?"
Track 4: I'll Sue Ya
A great style parody, great idea too. Proves once again that Al can do anything, you only wonder what his music would be like i he hadnt go into the parody/satire business
"I sued Colorado... cause you know it looks a little bit too much like Wyoming"
Track 5: Polkarama!
Man whenever i listen to his polkas, it makes me want to be able to play he accordion as good as him. I had a permenent smile on the entire time the track played. and i almost went to replay it, but i wanted to hear the other songs first,
"Dont ya wish your girlfriend was hot like me?"
Track 6: Virus Alert
A perfect song for geeks. If Norton ever needed a theme song i would recomend this song. just makes me smile.
"Virus alert, delete immedietly before someone gets hurt"
Track 7: Confessions Part III
Its pretty good. some of the stuff made me smile. the rhyming is pretty clever
"Like remember when i told you that i knew Pauly Shore"
Track 8: Weasel Stomping Day
FWAHAHAHAHA. hahah. HAHAHA HA! tee hee
"Put your viking helmet on, spead that mayonaise on the lawn"
Track 9: Close But No Cigar
A pretty good track. a cute concept. almost seems a little long though/
"Hey are we lobbin hand grenades, kiddo? no i dont think we are"
Track 10: Do I Creep You Out
Actually a rather creepy song. but thats what makes it funny.
"Every time i shake your hand now, i wanna stick your fingers in my mouth"
Track 11: Trapped In The Drive-Thru
I was wondering if Al could match the goodness of albquerque and genius in france. and i think he did it And he fact that he made an extended parody instead of a shorter one like usual.
"And i say to him hey eugene could i get some ketchup for my fries? well he looks at me and i look at him, and he looks at me, and i look at him, and he looks at me, and i look at him and he says im sorry what did you want again"
Track 12: Don't Download This Song
A good song to finish off the album. and it pretty much sums up the wohle "crisis" well.
"Dont download this song.. or you might wind up in jail like Tommy Chong"
Overall: 9.5/10
