LOL! When my son was seven years old, he swore that Nirvanna stole from Wierd Al. He was adamant. I had to show him that the wierd Al song was called, “Smells like Nirvana.”
To his credit, Kurt Cobain actually laughed off the parody. Other people like Coolio were livid though. Al wanted to do a parody of Lose Yourself by Eminem and was told no. A lot of the artists didn’t like Al.
Don McLean heard his kids play Weird Al’s “The Saga Begins” so many times that it was making him almost mess up whenever he performed “American Pie”.
