This is a WONDERFUL album if you want to laugh yourself silly-- Al Yankovic has done it again! All cuts deal with various foods, cravings and obesity, and are parodies of already existing songs made famous by other vocalists. Michael Jackson's "Beat It" becomes Mom telling you to "Eat It", "I'm Bad" is the lamentation "I'm Fat", Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba" is sure to hit a chord with the cartoon cat Garfield with "Lasagna", I myself relate to Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'n' Roll' when it equals "I Love Rocky Road", and the list goes on. This copy of "The Food Album" is a birthday gift to a friend of mine who owns and operates a local grill (and who just happens to make GREAT lasagna); I already own this CD and have given several copies to others who appreciate Weird Al's creative genius!
The album is a best of food-based songs. All are good and Weird al is hilarious. You can get all of the songs on other albums, but to have the best food songs in one place is something special. I would recommend this album for any Weird Al fan.
