    Oh yes!
    And, You’re Pitiful is listed as “internet Only”…
    That squashes anyone’s hope of it being on the album.
    Oh. And I said somewhere before that there probably be 12 songs, not 11.
    I was right!

    Wake me up when September almost ends!

    I’ve been waiting since last June.

  4. Adam Ewbank Says:

    One of the album’s song names is “White and Nerdy”, a parody of Chamillionaire’s “Ridin’”. Yeeha!

    He’s also parodying Usher, R. Kelly, and Green Day.

    The album’s shaping up to be a rap dominent album, which makes me a hypocrite, because I absolutley HATE rap…except when it’s done by Al. His rap is awesome.

  7. Weird Mario Says:

    Indeed, that is awesome!!!!!

    No one can busta rhyme better than Weird Al, he has the lungs to do so.

    The only problem that I have with Al doing rap is that I haven’t heard the original song before Al parodies it. I heard “It’s All About the Pentiums”, “Couch Potato”, and “Trash Day” before I heard the originals. For the last two, I had to listen to the cds of my co-worker to hear them one time. I still don’t think I’ve heard Puff Daddy’s “It’s All About the Benjamins” all the way through yet.

  14. Richard Latanville Says:

  19. Homestar92 Says:

    Surely there will be a parody of Straight Outta Compton. Otherwise, the title makes no sense.
