We need a new album. Don’t even worry about what is popular. Shit, just make it a fully original album. I love his originals lore than his parodies anyway.

I met him at the mall in Portland Maine in the 90s. He asked me to hold his Orange Julius while he gave me his autograph 👍

The reason why he hasn't made an album in 12 years is because you cannot make a parody of the music currently which is a parody of the music we listened to before.

They should bring back The Lawrence Welk show, but have Weird Al host it. My grandparents didn't think it was funny, but I used to LMAO at that show.

As far as parody music is concerned, Weird Al is the GOAT. Prove me wrong...

Listen he’s entitled to do what he wants, I love him and his work but I don’t get the point of view. Giant mega hits haven’t gone anywhere. Billie, Sabrina, Chappell, Kendrick, Taylor Swift. There’s still huge stars with songs almost everybody knows. Sure we don’t have Michael Jackson but there’s plenty of stuff that everyone recognizes still. Sure there’s a lot of internet dopes who lie about never hearing of certain mega popular people or maybe they’re telling the truth and have their heads buried but those people probably don’t know who Weird Al is either.
