Weird Al's best songs (or at least his most underrated songs) have usually [been his pastiches](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3aIwfrKakWWfwI517KZ3eD?si=U2K3niFuTTqBawg5WswWAw) and not direct parodies. Examples: "Dare To Be Stupid" (DEVO), "Frank's 2000" TV" (R.E.M.), "Drivin' A Truck" (CW McCall and other 70s trucker country), "Callin' In Sick" (Nirvana)
