Have you even wondered how "Weird Al" gets to do what he does? How does he choose his songs? What do the artists think?
We had a chance to ask him the background on some of his most famous projects.
Hear the stories behind "My Bologna", "Smells Like Nirvana", UHF, and "Word Crimes".

"I didn't know you were still alive!" "I never knew you were alive!" I died right there! XD I wish I could have seen that tweet! Maybe I can still find it in his history.

Al's an older man I would definately go out with, handsome, smart and kind. Looking good in this interview.

UHF is a great movie, I recommend it to anyone who loves weird al!

Cobain's response to "It's a song about how nobody can understand your lyrics." should have been "We already do songs about that."

@MrUndersolo 6 лет назад

fireflocs Cobain also said he knew Nirvana had made it once Weird Al covered “Smells Like Teen Spirit”.

Do they?

@dysequilibrium 3 года назад

they charged him $1000 to rerecord My Bologna????

@Marialla. 9 лет назад

He's looking handsomer as he ages (dare I say matures? Nahhhh). I never noticed him for his looks before.

@HowDareThey1970 9 лет назад

+Marialla He was always handsome though

@Marialla. 9 лет назад

HowDareThey1970 I couldn't see it through his silliness in the 80's. He wears it better now.

@HowDareThey1970 9 лет назад

Marialla I think i sort of overlooked it too... yet realize i never minded looking at him....and would periodically see a really handsome picture. i think he was really strikingly handsome with the short hair wigs he used for a couple of videos he did in the late 90s. Reveals chiseled features best. I never fully embraced the long hair with the center part, but with it partly pulled back (like at some award shows and some videos) looks great, and in the beginning of the Foil video with the hair brushed out and the part off center his hair looks really good, shows off his face.

I always thought he was cute in the old days, and he grew to be handsome.

I want to tweet this at Weird Al but I'm not gonna send him some dumb thing on RU-vid that everybody else already saw three years ago.

Most underrated comment I am practically crying

@legionaireb 3 года назад

The reason UHF wasn't a blockbuster was because all the blocks had already been busted that summer.

5/29/20 The one DISLIKE on this video is probably the guy who wrote to Al, "Your an idiot."

@algonacchick 9 лет назад

Haha, this is so great! Btw, I saw that tweet exchange mentioned at the very end. Brilliant!

@angiemelanie 8 лет назад

Esta muy guapo 😍

@milliequick1271 Год назад

I had not no idea that was how Bologna was pronounced 😂

@wwelovr29 8 лет назад

I love word crimes!

@emilphoryew9436 6 лет назад

The word "weird" is spelled weirdly. Figures he'd call himself that.

@hangugeohaksaeng 3 года назад

Nice to see Al. The host was a bit of a dud.

@Danimal300zx 8 лет назад

The interviewer was not able to follow up AT ALL to Al's answers to his questions. Al would say something funny and the interviewer would take an awkward pause and then just go on to the next question. REALLY? Can't think of ANYTHING to retort with? Al was clearly wanting some kind of comeback and remark, but nothing came.
