| Ha! Nice. I was having doubts that it was a deliberate Meat / Jim style parody (thinking more maybe generic 70s singer-songwriter type) until it picked up tempo in the middle, and then the flagrant chorus repetition / BG vocalist / wailing guitar conflagration at the end. I'm a lapsed Weird Al fan. He was my first favorite recording artist, I used to anxiously await his new releases, but then I sort of lost my way in the 90s, as more and more I was not familiar with the songs he was parodying. I was always pretty surprised he didn't parody "IDAFL."
