ACTUAL CD Review (remember those?)

[apotheosis]

Yes. I went to the store and bought an ACTUAL CD. Here's my review:

artist: "Weird Al" Yankovic
album: Poodle Hat

ok before the club-heads dismiss him please note: The man has been in the business successfully for over 20 years, how many people are in the scene half that long???

Tracklisting:

01. Couch Potato (parody of Lose Yourself by Eminem)
02. Hardware Store (original) Probably Album Single
03. Trash Day (parody of Hot In Here by Nelly)
04. Party At The Leper Colony (original)
05. Angry White Boy Polka (Required Album Polka Medley)
06. Wanna B Ur Lovr (original)
07. A Complicated Song (parody of Complicated by Avril Lavigne)
*** Funny!
08. Why Does This Always Happen To Me? (original)
09. Ode To A Superhero (parody of Piano Man by Billy Joel)
***Tells story of Spider Man Movie
10. Bob (original)
11. EBAY (parody of I Want It That Way by Backstreet Boys)
*** Dam Funny!!!
12. Genius In France (original)

CD-Rom part includes:
Home Movies, Pictures, Sing-a-long Lyrics, and 8 additional mixes.

Al actually starts off by saying "Hi, thank you for actually buying my album and NOT downloading it! these extras are for you"

So as you can see half of the album is original, half parody.
I think this is his 12th studio album.

That sounds great! Its been a while since he put out an album. He is hysterical and I used to be a huge fan of his just sitting around listening to his albums with my cousins. I hope he comes out with some new videos for these songs....those were always the best :)

he performed that eminem parody on Craig Kilborn last night...soo funny. i dont think i could sit around and listen to a whole album of this stuff though...

“Happiness is Free” by Onda—a more tribal feeling track with upbeat lyrics for a feel good quality. Love this tune. Things just continue down the same path throughout the remainder of the album’s 16 tracks. Discorados’ “Get Down (Phonicfood Remix)” gives the album a bit of a salsa splash, while “Highly Strung” by Headstock brings on the tribal jungle grooves. “You Bring Me Up”—a funk-encased beat explosion that tops the CD.

Very seductive, chill tunes. Perfect for the bedroom :)
