This morning, my local radio station (105.7 The Point in St. Louis, MO) talked a bit about Weird Al.
They said that one artist that he always wanted to parody was Prince. However he could not get permission from him even after countless times asking him.
Supposedly he doesn't HAVE to get permission to parody a song, but does it out of respect and courtesy for the artist.
Allegedly there were a few prince parody songs in the works already: Let's Go Crazy and another one that escapes my mind. Supposedly also wanted to do a parody of 1999 with a video of calling "1-800" numbers that all end in 1999.
Bermuda, where's your flashlight? Shed some light on this!
