White and Nerdy. Inevitable. Inevitable. But I'm also pretty fond of all those polka medleys he does. Angry White Boy Polka is great. |

Concur with WarrenB. And the thing is, my apathy zombie, I mean, teenaged daughter, thinks he's funny as Hell, too. Eric |

With Fall-In coming up it has to be Amish Paradise |

One more minute… Lots of great ones to chose from but one more minute is the classic breakup song, despite the new Taylor Swift junk… |
| Oddball | 23 Oct 2012 5:37 p.m. PST |
Tough call. "The Saga Begins" with the Star Wars Emporer playing piano is very funny. YouTube link "Smells like Nirvana" is another high point in his career. YouTube link But, I gotta go with: "White and Nerdy". "I'm whiter than sour cream" for lyrics, Donny Osmond dancing in the back ground and shooting craps with a D20 & D8. Good stuff. YouTube link |
| The Beast Rampant | 23 Oct 2012 5:38 p.m. PST |
I can't decide between "Amish Paradise" and "Fat". I'll let the(full length) video break the tie, and go with "Fat". Oh crap, I forgot about "White & Nerdy"! The man still got it! |

"White and Nerdy". "I'm whiter than sour cream" for lyrics and Donny Osmond dancing in the back ground. Good stuff. ..And shooting polyhedral craps, and the back-alley deal for a bootleg "Star Wars Christmas Special", and the list goes on… |
| Calico Bill | 23 Oct 2012 5:42 p.m. PST |
Fat. But the one about Star Trekin' comes a close second. |
| Major Mike | 23 Oct 2012 5:49 p.m. PST |
One of his newer ones, "Perform That Way" spoof of Lady Gaga. |
| John the OFM | 23 Oct 2012 6:14 p.m. PST |
I have often thought that "like a Surgeon" is a classic of Early Yankovic.

I also have tremendous respect for "Amish Paradise", especially because it  ed off Coolio. But, the ultimate manifestation of the Genius that is Al is "The Saga Begins"

"My my, this here Anakin guy…" Parody does not get better than that. |
| Tommy20 | 23 Oct 2012 6:49 p.m. PST |
Yup. Although I generally prefer his earlier stuff, "The Saga Begins" is his masterpiece. |

I think "White and Nerdy" is my favorite, but I also really like "I Lost on Jeopardy" and always sing "Nature Trail to Hell" when taking my girls camping. |

"You're Pitiful" is fun. It didn't make an album because the original record company (not the artist) nixed the deal. YouTube link David S. |
