Back in the 80s, Weird Al was HUGE in geek circles and has always been. Seriously, it's hard to overstate how popular he was among the geek crowd. He is one of the very few artists who I will buy a new album of his without hearing a single song off it because I *know* it's going to be great... and that's been true since the 80s.

[@jasonsmith9147]

Hell yeah. in the late 70's or early 80's, I would listen to the Dr. Demento show on the radio every week and that's where I first heard Weird Al. Loved him from the first song I heard. The great thing about Dr. Demento was that he opened me up to a whole new world of funny radio, not just Wierd Al. Great acts like Kip Adotta, The Frantics, Joe the Love Potato, and so many others. I still have some cassette tapes I made from back then.

[@clintonwilcox4690]

Yeah, I've been pretty obsessed with Weird Al since I was a kid (I've been a geek/nerd practically my whole life). I have mixed feelings about his popularity now. He deserves it, of course -- he should have been huge from the beginning. But now Weird Al is no longer a hidden treasure that geeks and nerds can appreciate and find camaraderie with.

[@Bobal27]

@@jasonsmith9147 I still remember the tape with Kip Adotta, Bryan Bowers, Weird Al, and Rodney Dangerfield (among others). Did you ever notice that Rappin’ Rodney isn’t listed on the cassette? I’m pretty sure that’s on purpose, so he “gets no respect at all.”

The thing to keep in mind is while that Al is huge in the USA, that is pretty much the only place (and judging by his world tour locations also Canada). Sure, he has his fans in other countries as well, probably a few more in countries where English is either primary or a common second language (Canada, UK...). But people outside the US are far less likely to have heard of him, especially since his real boom (from my understanding) was the 80s and 90s.
Not implying that he's not doing extremely well still of course, but that's when he had his own show and movie and all that.

One minor correction. He didn't "do" his hair for this. That's just his hair.

Congrats on discovering Weird Al. It's good that you started with The Saga Begins because that was a good showcase for his voice talents, which are often overlooked because of his clever lyrics and video.
This parody shows off more of his creativity. Others show off his dancing and rapping skills. He truly is multi-talented, which is so rare.

[@jameyhej3]

Fun bit of "Weird Al" trivia:
Weird Al is one of only _5_ artists to have 4 Billboard Top 40 hits across 4 decades (the others being Kenny G, Madonna, Michael Jackson, and U2). That's at least one top 40 hit in each of the '80s, '90s, '00s, and '10s. Although arguably, Kenny G and Michael Jackson snuck in on technicalities (their music being included in a modern track via sample).

[@sabin97]

if it's a sample in someone else's song, then it's not your song.
so those who "snuck" didnt really sneak. they failed.

He's done some bad parodies, including one he admits was bad -- His Cyndi Lauper parody Girls Just Want to Have Lunch. He was forced by his record label to do a parody of Lauper because of how huge she was at the time. So he was forced into doing that parody and because of that it's not that good.

Weird Al is probably one of the greatest songwriters in history, and having had the pleasure of seeing him live in Glasgow a few years ago, I can confirm he and his band are some of the greatest showmen too.
