When I was a kid, I really liked Weird Al Yankovich. Non Sequiter and absurdity were and still remain high on my list of comedic preferences, and the pop-culture references were amusing, too (when I got them; what can I say, I've always lived under a rock). As I've gotten older his songs have appealed less to me because the songs he parodies are (typically) more main-stream (and aimed at teens) than I listen to and though I get more of the pop-culture references (generally), I care less about them.

All that being said, though, I really like This Song. I'm not sure, really, how to express the fact, though.  :p

neh, I think his older works were better. Back when he made fun of the simple man, like sugeons or the amish. I expected more from weird al from a song about downloading. Maybe something like http://www.monzy.com/intro/drama_lyrics.html
