I think I first heard a Weird Al song about 15 years ago when starting secondary school. Some of his songs and parodies are genius.
He just released the last album from a 32 year and 14 album record deal this week, and to coincide with it he's releasing 8 music videos in 8 days.
Here are the ones that have been released so far
