I'm betting the angry white boy polka is the one that caused Emenem to whine and bitch.

So, would anyone care to review this CD?

Like/dislike?

I'm sure it's no Running with Scissors, but it looks like it could be fun.

I think it's pretty safe to say that BAD HAIR DAY is Weird Al's best CD, by far. Well, I guess that's all there is to say about it. And I still laugh pretty hard at UHF, if I'm in the mood. The man can be funnt when he feels like it.

so apparently he still used Eminems bullshit song where he says the same thing over and over again which consist of "You better what yourself in the music" bah what a stupid asshole. The best song on als new cd is "Ode to a superhero" where he talks about Spider-man

I'm gonna download the cd today (or at least try to get all the songs) and I will give a brief statement on each song.

1. Couch Potato - ****; pretty funny look at tv shows, love the Jennifer Lopez comment
2. Hardware Store - ***; I found myself singing along with the chorus, very catchy
3. Trash Day - ***; pretty good, got me laughing out loud at a few parts
4. Party at the Leper Colony - **; When I hear a leper colony song, I want more!
5. Angry White Boy Polka - ***; I've always felt these Polkas are Al's best songs, and this is no exception, it's pretty good (great Strokes mock)
6. Wanna B Ur Lovr - ***; a love song from hell...and I mean that in the best way possible.
7. A Complicated Song - *; shit, pure shit
8. Why Does This Always Happen to Me - **; nothing special here, folks
9. Ode to a Superhero - ****; awesome take on 'Piano Man' and gives a funny outline of 'Spider-Man'
10. Bob - *; Bob Dylan mockery, and a not-so-good one
11. E-Bay - ***; I'm diggin' this song alot, even if it is a Backstreet Boys styled song.
12. Genius in France - **; kinda funny, but I'm taking off a star because it's too long (8:56)


Final rating: **1/2 out of ****


Not bad, not great. Plenty of good songs, plenty of not so good ones.
