  Historically, a Weird Al parody of your first big hit was a better predictor of a long successful career than winning the Best New Artist Grammy. <br>When Nirvana first hit it big, it all happened pretty fast for them, they were selling out stadiums, hearing their songs on the radio, it all felt surreal and they kept expecting to wake up from a dream. It was when Weird Al&apos;s people called for permission to do a spoof of &quot;Smells Like Teen Spirit&quot; that reality sank in and they realized they were rock stars.

  Weird Al has actual skills and the most wonderful thing is that he&apos;s actually that squeaky clean. Not a mean or crooked thought in his head. Dude&apos;s a role model for real and his parodies are so respectful.

  You have to check out “Amish Paradise” and “Trapped in the Drive-Thru” Weird Al is a national treasure

  That guy dancing behind Al is Donny Osmond, and he&apos;s been one of the &quot;whitest&quot; singers since the late 1970s. &nbsp;It&apos;s absolutely perfect that he was in this video.

  Dude is no joke the greatest musician in history. He has dozens of &quot;you gotta hear this&quot; tracks. Pick a genre and he has 5 tracks that slay.

  “All About The Pentiums” is another great Weird Al rap. He is a rabbit hole worth diving into 👍

  Weird Al is a legend, and shout out to his band because they&apos;ve been with him since the start and they can play any genre of music out there. They&apos;re all amazing.

  I always feel so old when younger people react to this video. They have no idea that the guy dancing behind Al is the real white &amp; nerdy - Donny Osmond

  And consider this: this white guy was 47 when this song was released. He was almost 50 and is a better rapper than so many people younger than him. This man is precious.

  Weird Al is one of the greats. Only 4 artists have had #1 albums 4 decades in a row: Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince and Weird Al
