Think about nutrition, wonder what's inside it now. (oh boy)
SPAM in my lunchbox at work. (it's the best)

Eat it, Fat, Like a surgeon, Amish Paradise...

Hey Zhaneel... how was Amish paradise viewed up there in the land of PA?...

Couldn't say, as Amish country is a good hour or two away from here, and I wasn't paying attention when the album came out. Erin might know.

That song (Amish Paradise) comes w/ a rather interesting story: Weird Al's people called Coolio and asked him for permission. Coolio told them no, but they told Al yes, so he went ahead. The song did well. Coolio was a little perterbed, but still wished Al the best w/ the sales of the song...

That's neat to know, but I like the idea of asking... sad to know that Al made the song under the false pretense that it was okay to make it...

Either way I'd buy it...

Al always asks the artist if he could parody their song(s), I believe. It got to the point that he related the parodies to food so much that (I think) Nirvana said he could do their song Smells Like A Teen Spirit but not to do it with food :)
