Best album?

The best at what he does.

>>72070354

he looks a lot like Kenny G

>>72070676
In 3-D is his best album.

>>72070354
He's for kids, very tame jokes which usually run out of steam at about a minute in to a song, after that it just gets repetitive

>>72070354
I lost interest in his music after Sraight Outta Lynwood, Word Crimes is the only recent parody I like from him.

His actual masterpiece is pic related.
It shows that, if he actually cared, he would be a renowned musical genius worldwide.

>tfw he didn't care enough to give us more of his beautiful, blazing accordion solos

>>72072991
This but unironically.

>>72072887
Trapped in the Drive-Thru is almost as good.

Why is it that when most people make song parodies, they are cringe worthy, but when weird al does it they are amazing?

Do we just like weird al more as a person, or is he just that much better at making them?
