| I e-mailed Al once to ask why he didn't parody IDAFL. He didn't reply. I know a couple of lesser talents have done it, but Al missed the boat on that one. Holding Out for a Hero - "Hero" in the sense of a submarine sandwich Its All Coming Back to Me Now - No idea what the parody title is, but it would be a good one. Maybe "They're All Yelling Back to Me Now," about a baseball Umpire? Top of my head. Really, any of Jim's songs are good parody subjects because of his over the top style. But generally, for a parody, you probably want to stick with the hits. I've personally written full lyrics for: Breed'em Like Sheep, A Riff is a Terrible Thing to Waste, Dressed in the Dark, and Sometimes an Album Takes Too Damn Long (TIWIMTBY). I think these were all shared back on the old Jim mailing list at gospel.iinet in the last decade. > I'm glad that Bellminer got to meet his hero, Weird Al > Yankovic. > > Are there any Jim songs that could be given the Weird Al > treatment? | |
