In this thread lets discuss what genre or artist we would like to see a style parody of.
I want to see Bloodhound Gang, pop-punk, and Dashboard Confessional.

The thing about a rap style parody is that for Al, I think it's a lot easier to do specific parodies of rap songs. Plus its kinda hard to do a rap style parody, that would be like doing a "rock style parody". There's a lot of different types, which is why I think he hasn't done one.

Raymond Scott! Can he do that? Anyways....it's old stuff, but some of the greatest!
FYI, Raymond Scott was the mastermind of most of the famous "Cartoon" music you hear in Wanrer Brothers' cartoons.
It'd be kinda hard to do, though, since they don't have lyrics....he COULD do Raymond Scott's ELECTRONIC music as a style parody...that would be interesting.

What do I know? Al is the only rap I listen to. So, ok... he could pick a rap artist. Oh, say Eminem... and do an original. I guess what I am hoping for is to have Al's writing skills shine. As it is, CP is still attached to Em's rhymes, and the music. I'd like to see it be all Al. And if he ever does do something like that, I'd like to see it get a video like DTBS did.
OT... DTBS is such an amazing style parody, perhaps the best of Al's career. I was surprised to learn that it wasn't a parody of any particular Devo song, because it matched the style of Devo so well, I was sure I'd heard the original Devo version before, but I could never pin down which song it was. From what I gather from the Zappa fans, the same could be said of GiF.

Queen, because they're awesome, and that way they would be the first band to have the ultimate honor.
I'm ranking every Beatles song on my new pop culture blog. Check it out!

Lemme see...
Tom Jones or cheesy lounge act music
White Stripes
Ragtime turn-of-the-century music
Rockapella, yeah I know he did Since You've Been Gone, but I mean more like Rockapella
Guns N Roses "Hair Band" style
Gilbert and Sullivan (of course Hardware Store is alot like that anyway)
Cake, would make a good "Short Skirt, Long Jacket" parody video
Alright, I went through of my Mp3s and those are the only ones that seemed do-able
I realized that 3/4 of my Mp3s aren't even by famous artists or are not even copyrighted.
