Mods feeling a bit nostalgic today eh?

I dunno. It's funny and I like Weird Al, but I fail to see any ironic social commentary about the 80s being cheezy.

Did submitter miss the fact that this song was released in the 80s and that, therefore, most of the kiche was due to that rather than irony?

Oh I think most of us knew. It was just fun to be cheesy.

I posted too fast: P.I.L's metal box is from '79

which proves my point:

60s music > 70's music > 80s music > 90's music
