I'll say two things about Al's 1986 release Polka Party.  One, it's widely considered to be Al's weakest and least successful record.  Two, it is NOT my least favorite Al-bum.  I think it's underrated.  This is already the second song I've posted from it.

One reason I like it more than most is because it contains one of Al's very best stylistic send-ups - the Talking Heads-esque "Dog Eat Dog."  He does David Byrne as well as anyone this side of David Byrne.  In fact, he wears the huge Stop Making Sense suit when he performs this song in concert.

Yeah, I know lines like "where's my liquid paper" are somewhat dated.  Eh, whatever.  "This is not my beautiful stapler" is nothing less than timeless.
