Title: New Weird Al CD a disappointment
Product review: I've been a fan of Weird Al for years, but even I've gotta admit this is one of his lamer efforts. The first single is a parody of a song most of us are too young to remember, and the other parodies sink to being nasty instead of funny. The jab at Helen Keller in "Pentiums" was WAY out of line, "Rabbi" makes fun of Jews, and the original songs also aren't as good as his previous efforts. "Albuquerque" has a meaningless lyric that drones on for more than 10 minutes. If you liked Weird Al classics like "Amish Paradise", "Like A Surgeon", or "One More Minute", you won't find any such classics here. And there's only ONE song about food on this album! The humor of this album is so watered-down, it's like somebody trying to imitate Weird Al. Too bad, I'd really been looking forward to this album. Now I wish I'd have saved my money and bought it at the used CD store.
