It’s been a good week for “Weird Al” Yankovic, whose face has popped up onour Facebook news feedso many times since Monday, we’re thinking about getting a perm.The Weird Al mania is, of course, because Yankovic has been dropping a new parody video every day, from“Tacky”(set to the tune of Pharrell’s “Happy”) to “Foil,” a spoof of Lorde’s “Royals” that glorifies one of the handiest items in our kitchen.
We’re a little disappointed that none of new songs were the food anthem we’d been hoping for — Yankovic takes “Foil” into some, um, creative territory after singing about sandwiches and leftovers — but it’s a good excuse to revisit the quirky artist’s parodies on ice cream, waffles, Spam and more over the years.
Enjoy:
1984: “Theme from Rocky XIII (The Rye or the Kaiser),” a parody of Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger”
1993: “Waffle King,” a parody in the style of Peter Gabriel
…And do these two count? Probably as much as “Foil,” so consider them a bonus:
