It’s time to honor the legend, ladies and germs.   And his name is “Weird” Al Yankovic.   For he is the Song Parody King.   And today…we salute him.

“Weird” Al has been on fire lately.   He had a fictitious movie made about starring Daniel Radcliffe (a.k.a. Harry Potter) and has also won a Grammy in recent years.   He’s also the master of music and comedy.
