1358 "Weird Al" Yankovic - Amish Paradise

1358 "Weird Al" Yankovic - Amish Paradise
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51JAVuINO1L._SS500_.jpg
From: Bad Hair Day, Year: 1996

There's three reasons I'm picking this track tonight: 1. Max chose [actually his 21st] "Weird Al" track the other day, 2. I noticed that I had not chosen a "Weird Al" song yet and I really needed to get with the programme, and 3. I heard the song that that this song is a parody of, (Coolio's Gangsta's Paradise), the other day on the new Green Hornet film and it got me thinking about this song again; it was quite hard to remember the original lyrics after hearing "Weird Al's" parody.

Watch the music video on YouTube.

  1. 21st! Al had been at 20 before last week's post. Now he, Zappa and Rush are in a three-way dead heat with 21 songs each. The Cure is in second with 19.
