Both of those are incredible...

I wish I had one tenth the creativity of this guy... He might not get as much attention as guys like Robin Williams and Jeff Foxworthy, but he has to be in the top 25 comedians of the last century...

And a seriously underrated and under-appreciated musician and vocalist. Hey, you try making an accordion sound like 80s pop synth! Or just listen to the technical purity, not to mention the sheer inspired nature, of something like "Jerry Springer."
And as one blogger wrote: "White and Nerdy" speaks to me (and probably most of the peeps here) like no song since Wheatus's "Teenage Dirtbag" has.
The guy has got humor, wit and skill out the woojah.

Default Way too accurate

I spotted waaaay too many things I could relate to in the "White and Nerdy" clip.... including being able to quote "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"!!! ops:

Thanks for pointing these out. Made my morning.

Weird Al IS incedibly talented, but there is no doubt he is weird. I do a lot of work for rock concerts, and have worked several of his shows over the years. Once before a show I found him laying on the concrete floor behind a dimmer rack with his feet up on a coil of cable......he had a very comfortable couch in his private dressing room, but somehow he found the floor and noise more comfortable....weird.

To appreciate his talent you have to hear him do "We are the World" He does all the voices....at the same time. Incredible!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnR6LZqEUeA is still my favorite Weird Al. Take a look at the last 20 seconds. I think that whole scene was run backwards and Al performed in it backwards so it would look like he was going forwards.
