Subject: "Canadian Idiot"--which is best?
Written By: agrimorfee on 10/10/06 at 7:56 am
There were 5 different parodies of "American Idiot" by Green Day on Amiright before Weird Al released his song on Straight Outta Lynwood. Which of these parodies is the best?
This is all in good fun, but please read all entries before making your choice. There is a 7-day time limit on this poll.

After reviewing all the entries, Al's the best in spite of the woeful rhyme scheme travesty in the first verse. The final verse's subtle political satire regarding " a preemptive strike" adds the final touch to what would have been merely a weak listing of stereotypes. If not for pacing hiccups, The Punster might have had a chance.
If you don't like this critique, take off, eh? ;D
