The Ultimate Parody Guide

[SmadaNave]

I edited and updated TMBJon's point-outs and added everything from "UHF" to "Straight Outta Lynwood". At the bottom, I mentioned I still have at least 10 more originals' WOWAY subjects to look through (100s of pages), so updates for "Alpocalypse" and "Mandatory Fun" won't be uploaded until I know for sure I got a solid list of style parody info to post. Thanks to all and I appreciate your feedback.

[SmadaNave]

[yeah, decided to double-post instead of edit my recent post.]

My version of "The Ultimate Parody Guide" (containing ALL ALbum songs and most notable singles) is now complete. Like I said, any criticisms regarding the style parodies will be taken into account. Everything from " 'Weird Al' Yankovic" to "Mandatory Fun" is covered.

[TheLazenby]

I actually just recently noticed that Al was right in calling "Biggest Ball of Twine" a parody of both Harry Chapin and Gordon Lightfoot.

I knew that the verses are obviously Chapin's "30,000 Pounds Of Bananas" - but it just hit me that the chorus is "The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald."

[TheLazenby]

"Christmas At Ground Zero" has a LOT of Yogi Yorgesson's "I Yust Go Nuts At Christmas" in it. The verse melody is identical.

THE WEIRD AL ALBUM SONGS GUIDE TO END ALL WEIRD AL ALBUM SONGS GUIDES


MAJOR EDIT #1: Feedback noticed and most were fixed (suggestion courtesy of TMBJon) and for "Melanie", some could perceive it as an original, and some could perceive it as a style parody. I included "OR" to separate the confusion. All feedback will be taken into consideration. Thank you.
MAJOR EDIT #2: Added "UHF", "Off The Deep End", "Alapalooza" and the "Headline News" single. Slightly tweaked the formatting for AL-bums 1-5, and did a quick but thorough search on all the songs TMBJon mentioned was wrong and updated "Midnight Star", "That Boy Could Dance", "Nature Trail To Hell" and "Melanie" [as seen on the Weird Al Wiki, which is why I put (*WIKIA) after the information]
MAJOR EDIT #3: Added "Bad Hair Day", "Spy Hard" single & "Running With Scissors".
MAJOR EDIT #4: Added "Poodle Hat" and "Straight Outta Lynwood" with "You're Pitiful" single attached
MAJOR EDIT #5: Added "Alpocalypse". Also mentioning all the people who accurately lists the song(s) in each track.
MAJOR EDIT #6: OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MADE RIGHT HERE THAT "MANDATORY FUN" WILL BE EDITED HERE TOMORROW!
MAJOR EDIT #7: Added "Mandatory Fun".

Only going to be posting official released Al albums and songs. [Including Spy Hard, Headline News & You're Pitiful]
Edits will be made (to put up another album's worth or two) every day I'm on [Monday-Saturday].
One small thing to note: I've not heard songs from some of the artists style-parodied [in the 1980s/1990s albums]; I'm just looking for the complete and FINAL update.

NOTES:

Let's keep this alive! I need everyone's help to find songs for all the remaining style parodies that have nothing specified. Once that is complete, I will turn this whole Ultimate List into a spotify playlist AL-TV style, with the original song/inspired by songs first followed by Al's version/pastiche. It's taken a lot of time to put together for me, but if we can nail down those last songs, I will complete the playlist and drop the link right here for everyone!
