With this ode to S.J. Popeil of Pocket Fisherman and Veg-O-Matic fame, it's pretty obvious he's spoofing the B-52's with this track from In 3-D (1984).  This song sounds like it came right off of Wild Planet.

Of course, if you send-up the B-52's you need a couple of adept female singers.  One of the girls singing on this song happens to be S.J.'s daughter Lisa.

By the way, I once saw my own nephew actually catch a fish with a Pocket Fisherman.  Seriously.

YouTube fan-made video for "Mr. Popeil"  You might wanna turn your speakers down, this video has an intro that's WAY TOO LOUD.

This is part of a week-long series on the "style parodies" of "Weird Al" Yankovic.

I'm doing a week of Weird Al.  You all know him as the world's premier creator of music parodies.  You probably got a good laugh out of songs like "Eat It", "Fat" and "Smells Like Nirvana."  You probably did not, however, see his movie (it's pretty funny), and you may have used a peer-to-peer program to download some crappy novelty song that was miscredited to him.  Man, that's irritating.  And we Al fans really hate it when you call him "Yankovich."  Please stop that.

In any case, I'm going to do something a bit out of the ordinary.  Rather that focus on his song parodies, I will highlight his artist or "style" parodies.  In addition to doing send-ups of popular songs, he also likes to record original songs very much in the style of a particular musician or band, and the list of people he has honored in this manner reads like a virtual who's-who of my favorite artists.  So, the MSaD is showing off a week of "Weird Al" Yankovic in pastiche mode.
