Literally all of them are superior, bud.

seriously

although many of the originals are great too and im glad i was such a tremendous dork that listened to so much weird al as a kid because it exposed me to a big variety of music and seeking out the originals led to some cool discoveries (ditto for the guns n roses album 'the spaghetti incident?!')

It always kinda bugs me that in Drive Thru, the wife gets mad at the young female attendant for thinking that the husband is Paul. Like, why would you be jealous or mad about that? Still one of my favorites though.

I'm sad that Prince never gave All permission to do a cover.

she thinks her husband has been pretending his name is Paul (Atreides, I assume) to "boink" drive thru girl (which ain't happenin bud, sorry but thems the breaks)

was "traffic jam" supposed to be a Prince style song?

Are...are you thinking of something else because not in a thousand years would I associate "Traffic jam" with Prince.

As an aside, Traffic Jam is awesome.

i must be, i haven't heard it since 6th grade and for some reason i seem to have associated it with prince

Traffic Jam is very obviously a parody of Prince's "Let's Go Crazy", which is an amazing song.

that's exactly what i was thinking, that it sounded like a song in the same style as let's go crazy
