5Classic Al  Sep 10, 2009
Weird Al Yankovic - Greatest Hits, Volume 1 is thirty-four minutes and five seconds and was released on October 18, 1988. The album never charted. Greatest Hits, Volume 1 are a collection of songs from his first five albums: Weird Al Yankovic, Weird Al Yankovic in 3-D, Dare to Be Stupid, Polka Party!, and Even Worse. Missing from the CD are: My Bologna and I Love Rocky Road. If you don't want to buy all five albums and just want to hear his most familiar tunes, then this is for you. Weird Al Yankovic - Greatest Hits, Volume 1 gets an AAAA++++.

4A Great "Weird Al" Yankovic Idea  Jul 27, 2009
Here's a great "Weird Al" [From The Weird Al Show and Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!]Idea!

In since "Weird Al" has already done two Michael Jackson parodies, [Eat It [Beat It] and Fat] [Bad] He should do another one being of Michael Jackson's unexpected death called Remember The Dime [Parody of Michael Jackson's Remember The Time] about a guy and a girl breaking up all from the flip of a dime.I'm not bragging but it kinda DOES sound like "Weird Al" Yankovic's type of funny music.

Anyway...BUY THIS ALBUM OR ELSE "WEIRD AL" WILL SIT ON YOU!!! And he's FAT!

P.S. I think Remember The Dime would be a song on "Weird Al" Yankovic:Greatest Hits,Volume 3. [If Made]

5excellent  Feb 16, 2009
This was a gift for my grandosn. It arrived timely and in great condition - fun music!

4A great 80's review whether you lived it or not  May 05, 2008
Who can forget the first time Weird Al made national headlines with the hilarious 'Eat it'? The video was one of the funniest things ever filmed. After 'Eat it', Weird Al could have disappeared off the face of the earth with a million dollars and be long forgotten. Fortunately, Al had a lot more humor in the gas tank and is still going strong today.

I have to admit I enjoy Al's older work, for the only reason that I know the songs he is paroding. With his more recent works, I don't know what is an Al original or a parody. I guess I'm just getting old, but to stay curent Al has always had to stay with the times and changing music scene.

1. Fat - AL went for the easy money and lampooned MJ again. Not as good as Eat it, but a good parody.

2. Eat It - The song that made Al famous. As good to listen to now as the day it was released.

3. Like A Surgeon - Madonna was on of the biggest, if not the biggest, star of the 80's. Only one parody ever done of her and this is probably one of his best.

4. Ricky - Not a favorite of mine. Never an I Love Lucy fan in the first place.

5. Addicted To Spuds - Al is sometimes guilty of doing too many 'food' or TV songs. Sorry Al, but food songs get the >> button after the hundredth time (except for Eat it)

6. Living With A Hernia - Not many fans care for this one, but it is one of my favorites. I think this song is pure paordy genius. The only other thing he could have done could have been 'Living in a porta John'. Hey it could work.

7. Dare To Be Stupid - YES!!! This is Al's greatest original and he captured the 80's DEVO influence perfectly. This song will never get old and is a theme song for all Al fans. This song simply rules.

8. Lasagna - Food again. Not a favorite. I think 'Another One Rides the Bus' could have replaced this song very easily without a complaint from anybody. This is the song that makes me give this album 4 stars instead of 5.

9. I Lost On Jeopardy - The original song had 'Weird Al' written all over it. It was such a natural parody for him to do. Totally original awesome parody.

10. One More Minute - Al has done some love (breakup) songs, and this is one of his best and funniest


4Funny cd but...  Oct 06, 2007
This is a great cd, very funny. But where is one of his best songs. The song I refer to his "Another one rides the bus". Can anyone tell me where to find it. Other then that the cd is trually a greatest hits album. My brother find his music very entertaining. Buy this album.
