Trivia[]

  • This is "Weird Al" Yankovic's last studio album for the Scotti Brothers label
  • The song "Laundry Day" was originally intended for this album, but Al couldn't get permission.
  • Al literally got his hair braided for the album cover, it wasn't a wig! Al describes the braids as "excruciatingly painful" and doesn't recommend sporting them.
