WEIRD AL...1992.
, December 6, 2001OFF THE DEEP END: more of the stuff that's Weird...Al! Opens with "Smells Like Nirvana", kicks into funny little numbers parodying MC Hammer ("I Can't Watch This"), Gerardo ("Taco Grande"), New Kids ("The White Stuff") and Milli Vanilli ("Plumbing Song"). "Trigger Happy" continues in that style parody vein (surf music) with wild results, "You Don't Love Me Anymore" is a goofy ballad, and if you can strike up a party, crank "Polka Your Eyes Out" to 11-teen. -
Classic!!!!!!!!!!!

Pauley H - See all Pauley H's reviews Most of the songs were funny and hilarious like the unforgttable taco grande smells like nirvana most of those were top 40, specially his first no 1 the bluesy yet poignant "you don't love me no more" which is probably his best song oever made, a must own piece of music.

Pro Reviews: Off the Deep End
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Following his exposure in the mid-'80s, Weird Al Yankovic's career stumbled with the poor-selling Polka Party in 1986 and his feature film UHF that tanked in 1989. Clearly, many people had grown tired of Yankovic's presence, just as they'd grown tired of the artists he was satirizing. Thus his chance for a comeback came in 1992, when Nirvana stormed the scene with "Smells Like Teen Sprit," a song that turned the music world upside down and ended the careers of many of the artists Yankovic had once used to heighten his success. Not too surprisingly, "Smells Like Nirvana" was the first single off of Off the Deep End, Yankovic's first album in three years. The song, which pokes fun at the original version's incoherent lyrics, was a smash hit, and not undeservingly -- it reveals the kind of brilliant writing Yankovic was still capable of doing. Though no other parody on the album matches the cleverness of "Smells Like Nirvana," satires such as "I Can't Watch This" and "Taco Grande" come quite close. In addition to re-establishing his satirical craftsmanship, Deep End showcases some of Yankovic's best originals ever; "Trigger Happy," "When I Was Your Age," and "You Don't Love Me Anymore" prove to be the album's greatest songs. As his best album since In 3-D, Off the Deep End is the answer to those who questioned Yankovic's credibility as an evolving artist. - Barry Weber, All Music Guide |
