WAUS - Weird Al Universal Showdown ?? |
|
|
We were talking about which Al songs should've been nominated to SAUS and we eventually determined that there is enough awesome in the Weird Al catalog to constitute its own competition.
Being a longtime Weird Al fan, I've got all the necessary music (even his work with Wendy Carlos if it's in that much demand) plus some of his rare b-sides and live-only performances.
There aren't enough tracks for a full 256 song bracket, but 128 is well with capability. The problem is that I have 143 eligible tracks, so 15 need to be culled before the thing even begins. Looking over the discography, this is easier said than done. There are some songs that I dislike, such as "Trapped In the Drive-Thru" but which are loved by others.
So, if this were to actually take place, hypothetically, which Weird Al tracks should be cut?
I'm thinking of preliminating (I just made that word up) the following for being amongst the less-inspired Weird Al songs:
- Virus Alert
- Toothless People
- Let Me Be Your Hog
- Don't Wear Those Shoes
- She Never Told Me She Was a Mime
- Generic Blues
- I'll Sue Ya
Beyond these, however, the decisions become pretty difficult. Suggestions?
