if weird al parodied gnr, what songs would you want to hear?


Recommended Posts

On the topic of cheese, I'd like to hear Better being parodied as "Cheddar". Or, reaching back to "MyPJForum", name it "Vedder" and have it be a love song to Eddie Vedder.

Random ones off the top of my head: Street of Creams, Chinese Takeout (Why are they all food related?), Don't Whine, and Rearranged (Estranged).

I've heard a bootleg of Weird Al performing the song "Chicken Pot Pie" at a concert, a parody of "Live and Let Die" performed in GNR's style. A cool thing about Weird Al is that he never records a parody without getting permission from the original artist (even though he legally could get away with it). Anyway, in interviews Weird Al has stated that he asked Paul McCartney for permission to parody the song, but was turned down because Paul is vegan. He told Al that if he changed the lyrics then he wouldn't care, so Al decided to not record it. Regardless, it was pretty funny based on the live recording I heard.
