I like how when it starts he totally fails to impress his dog.

Weird Al's parody, "Headline News" (new window)

I've always liked the Weird Al version better.

This is one of those songs that whehter you like hte weird al version more or not, it's been "Weird Al'd" so that I only know the weird al version at this point. Same goes for coolio.

I will second you there.

I think the Crash Test Dummies' first album "The Ghosts that Haunt Me" is very underrated and a very good album. Just the right combination of good lyrics, good music, pop/folk/rock sound. And a unique singer. Even after first listening to it in like 1991, I still come back to it. I think that "God Shuffled his Feet" is a bit of a lesser album overall, but has a few great tracks.

I, too, came to laud the earlier album, "The Ghosts That Haunt Me." Great record.

It was kind of cool to hear a singer with a voice that low outside of death metal.

/i.e. "Cookie Monster" music

I was once in a game of charades where the person up front for the other team was trying to act this out - everyone in our team knew what it was, and it was pretty funny watching the other team scratch their hair out.

I miss the days when "in 1994" was filtered into "inubian".

That was great. Usually anyone talking about something in 1994 was Clinton-bashing, and it confused them.

I hate this song so much. And not just because it has a similar title to one of the biggest singles by my favorite singer in life.

Saw them perform this at EdgeFest '94. Good God, they were awful.

Heh, just saw that. I guess I should've read the comments first.
