Having Weird Al make a parody of your song means you have officially “made it” in the music industry! Being included in a Weird Al Polka is a top honor as he only writes one per album as a mashup of 10-12 different artists. This one being ALL Hamilton songs shows his deep appreciation for Lin’s writing!

That is why he is the Goat of parodies. He should be in at least one Music Hall Of Fame. Underappreciated for sure. His rapping ability alone, he can rap circles around most rappers.

When Al did an interview on Jimmy Fallon with Lin he said this was one he would never perform live so he went “let’s do 5 part harmonies and speed it up a bunch”. Such an amazing man!

He's an amazing talent. Incredibly intelligent, hasn't ever used drugs, and never been arrested. Apparently he's a really nice guy who cares about his fans. He doesn't swear in his music because he knows a lot of kids like it.

Pretty sure after The Saga Begins got released, Don Mclean had to actively focus or he'd end up singing that instead.

Your bit at the start made me remember The Four chord Song. If you haven't seen that, you should totally react to it.

I see what you mean about the harmony. When I sing along with something, I like to pick out a harmony part and sing that. With this song, the harmonies are SO tight, I can't always pick one out. Bad for me, good for them, I guess.

Don't forget that less than half of the songs on his 14 studio albums are parodies. AL is an incredible songwriter and he writes songs for movies, tv and he even did a commercial for the Sundance Channel.
