I used to know or at least recognize the songs he was parodying, but on this most recent I actually had to look up what the parodies were since I had never heard any of the real versions. Only one I knew was the Gaga parody and that's only because of the brief controversy about it (and I still haven't heard her real tune). A shame he never bothers with rock songs anymore (his previous release only had one rock parody if memory serves), but then again I always enjoyed his originals more anyway. If I were to do a top 5 favorite Al songs I don't think any would be parodies (though I do have a fondness for "I Think I'm A Clone Now"). | |
