bad forum etiquette, give us some context.
it's also good to copy the contents from the link in case it goes offline before this thread does, which it most likely will.

Has Weird Al ever done a PSB parody? I know several others have done them, such as Flight Of The Concordes, Supergirly & Spitting Image, but I've never heard a Weird Al one? If he hasn't, that's a shame, as I would've like to heard a parody of West End girls or maybe even something more recent, such as "Winner"! Lol

There was a PSB parody by Chris Morris (from 1990), which from the lyrics, I don't think he's either a big fan of them or the actor, Richard Gere!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SJtWCFvDpk

Amazing news!! really a fabulous achievement for Weird Al!!
I´m also enjoying his albums and videos from even before PSB were around (I think his 'Beat it-Eat It' parody was the first thing I knew about Al). Really hard to find an 80's artist getting his first No1 record on this days...and even more being a comedy act!
It´s also shocking how he never seems to get old! :O
This is not my signature.

He had to cope with tragedy in his life though when his parents died from gas poisoning in their bedroom. But apparently he can still do comedy.
