Couch Potato: Decent parody, I just wish it hadnt been used for the lead parody. 6/10
Hardware Store: Best original on the album, and one of my favorites overall. Only barely misses best song on the album (see Ebay). 10/10
Trash Day: I was unfortunately exposed to the original song by my niece. All I can say is this is slightly better. 2/10
Party at the Leper Colony: I like the joke here, but the music doesnt hold up to repeated listens. 4/10
Angry White Boy Polka: I love it when Al does themed polkas and for the most part this is a great polka that also takes a stab at the angsty rock/metal of the time. Only a few segments miss the mark. 8/10
Wanna B Ur Lovr: Great song. This was the surprise of the album for me, being better than any of the other songs I hadnt heard before getting it. 9/10
A Complicated Song: The original was sort of a guilty pleasure of mine so I was happy to have a guilt-free version of the song. Al did a great job mixing up the themes in the different verses without breaking the continuity of the song. Well done. 7/10
Why Does This Always Happen to Me?: This one reminds me of a SNL sketch. Really funny at first, but the joke gets stretched thin by the end. Great music though. 8/10
Ode to a Superhero: Great in concept, love the accordion, but somewhat surprisingly lacking in humor. 7/10
Bob: See Party at the Leper Colony. 3/10
Ebay: Best song on the album. Its just a perfect parody. 10/10
Genius in France: Much like how I feel about Frank Zappas music, I admire the effort and talent involved here but its just not something I can listen to. 5/10
Overall: My 11th favorite Weird Al album. 6.5/10
