"Everything You Know Is Wrong" - "Weird Al" Yankovic

by Max on Fri 27 Jun 2008 10:55 AM PDT | Permanent Link

This song from Bad Hair Day (1996) is a nod to They Might Be Giants. I'm pretty indifferent towards that group, so this really isn't an example of Al paying homage to a favorite band.

I dig this tune nonetheless. Of course, any song that makes mention of hibachi dealers, prosthetic lips, rabid wolverines, floating disembodied heads and Jamie Farr is likely to get a good response from me.

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

Introduction

Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.

Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas.
