he who’s tired of weird al’ is tired of
life on national TV
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for Weird Al’s
top 10 parodies for this list we focused
only on this polka loving comedian
spoofs of existing songs and not his
original compositions let the accordion
music begin number 10 perform this way
parody of Lady Gaga Born This Way
my mama told me when I was hatched act
like a superstar there are some artists
you know Weird Al is gonna take on Lady
Gaga is one of them so al turned Gaga’s
gay rights anthem into a spoof about her
crazy costumes similarities to other
divas and did we mention the crazy
costumes
oh grandma smaller dresses Roma
and by ahjumma’s of us age
to get mother monsters all clear
Yankovic donated the proceeds from this
song to charity
he then created a grammy-nominated
creepily uncanny valley video you got a
C to disbelief buddy I’m strange weird
shocking odd bizarre I’m Frankenstein
I ain’t afraid of whitening gate number
nine it’s all about the Pentiums parody
of Puff Daddy it’s all about the
Benjamins
I’ve ever seen you’ve got white out all
over your screen once again taking aim
at an of the moment song weird al’
targets Puff Daddy and really all
rappers with this ultra nerdy Jam
dropping online lingo tech jargon and
pop-culture references and perfect run
Yankovic channels the bravado and
cockiness of rap songs to talk about
computer culture install the PC
double-clicking on my new valves with
special guest appearance by fellow
celebrity nerd drew Carey it’s a perfect
parody of puffy and his pals the troll
one
number eight another one rides the bus
parody of Queen another one bites the
dust
riding a bust on the boulevard and the
playful creative passes which you’re
gonna see for a handstand with a pervert
in the back though my bologna was
officially Yankovic’s debut single it’s
this frenetic queen parody that landed
him his first TV appearance and record
deal complete with a signature accordion
and sound effects
the track craftily lists a bunch of
clever observations about bus riding and
the unique people you meet while doing
it
the smelly old bones are next to me here
shower in here well I think I’m missing
a contact lens I think my wallet is not
but again offering no one before or
since has committed so fully to novelty
music long long time ago in a galaxy far
away number seven the saga begins parody
of Don McLean American Pie I find me and
qui-gon jinn who taught the Federation
in Weird Al knows his target audience
loves them some Star Wars after 1985’s
Yoda he took it upon himself to tell the
story of the Phantom Menace to the tune
of American Pie oh my my this here
Anakin guy maybe Vader someday later
now he’s just a small fry living without
his trademark stash I’ll captured the
magic by compulsively researching
internet spoilers and attending an
expensive pre-screening to ensure his
lyrics were accurate well know we built
c-3po and I’ve heard how fast his pod
can go obi-wan would agree the force is
strong with this one
saying soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
number six like a surgeon parody of
Madonna like a virgin do med school
our buddy al is a one-man show and he
prefers to invent all his parody ideas
on his own but this is one time when he
got the idea from someone else Madonna
herself actually planted the seed for
this early Weird Al spoof
parodying the queen of pops first
number-one single Yankovic’s track is a
running stream of doctor and hospital
related puns with a hilarious video to
match
organ transplants
number five Amish paradise parody of
Coolio featuring LV gangsta’s paradise
as I walk through the valley where I
harvest my grain I take a look at my
wife and realized she’s very plain but
that’s just perfect for an Amish like me
you know why shun fancy things like
electricity believe it or not this track
was controversial but not for the reason
you’re thinking since we’re assuming few
Amish people actually heard it we
haven’t even paid the phone bill in 300
years julio claimed he never okayed the
parody and said Yankovic ruined his song
though he and a l’heure Coolio now we
can’t take the rapper’s side here we
mean Amish paradise has Mrs Brady
Gilligan’s Island jokes and enough Amish
references to churn butter
we beat that there’s no
number four white and nerdy parody of
Chamillionaire featuring crazy bone
ridin dirty almost 30 years after his
career began Yankovic proved he was as
on top of his game as ever
not only was white and nerdy Al’s first
top 10 hit his rapid-fire rhyme also
earned him props from the rapper himself
I heard all of us and which verb
alienation where’s my sweeper to play
per day you seem sweet who’s she gonna
say amazing results of the flexibly as
for geeks everywhere they had a
collective nerdgasm over his references
to Dungeons & Dragons
Star Trek and nerd culture in general
dance it out Donny Osmond number three
fat parody of Michael Jackson bad kill
but is why will – – just watch all pal
or I’ll sit on you this is Weird Al’s
second successful parody of Michael
Jackson and obesity Allah Aman Aman
wholewheat all array each with an extra
helping of chins and crotch crabs al
sings about the joys of being well but
don’t call me pudgy horribly our spouts
appeal me
and who’s sad of course the song itself
is clever but it’s the grammy-winning
video that’s truly the ps/2 raises stops
not only is it a perfect recreation of
MJ’s vid it’s also got phat backup
dancers fat suits and gardening
equipment number two
smells like Nirvana parody of Nirvana
smells like teen spirit
if you were a 90’s kid you loved Nirvana
song and it’s Weird Al parody equally
Yankovic Lampoon’s the Seattle garage
band and their unintelligible lyrics
with pitch perfect precision
unmistakeably recreating the tune and
its accompanying video he even used the
same set and extras to get the job done
Plus thanks to its wacky sound effect
Cal’s and kazoos
smells like nirvana insured Al’s career
saw a revival
ah
number one eat it
parody of Michael Jackson fetus well
don’t you know that other kids are
starving in Japan Oh eat it winning a
Grammy for Best Comedy recording this
was Weird Al’s first mega hit his first
Michael Jackson spoof and the song that
earned him a place near the mainstream a
perfect storm of things combined to make
eated a monster success but the
shot-for-shot recreation of the king of
pops video silly props ridiculous Rhymes
and trademark Weird Al food references
are too funny to be ignored you agree
with our list Weird Al track cracks you
up the most you go ego
