I asume nobody here dislikes Weird Al. It is almost impossible to hate him. In fact he is one of my top 10 humans of all-time. So I want your Top 5. Here is mine:

1 White and Nerdy=I asume this will be everyone's favorite. How can you not love a song about nerds?
2Foil= A newer song. I just love the concept of going from a cooking show to being a conspiracy nut. Extra props for having PattoIn Oswalt in it.
3Word Crimes:I am guilty of this stuff a lot but it doesn't matter. It makes word nazi's a fun thing, and of course it helps that are usually right.
4Stop forwarding that crap to me: Not sure if that is the title but I just like having a video about spam.
5I lost on Jeapody: I'm not even sure if some people know this one because it is proably over looked because of songs back then like the Micheal Jackson spoofs or the Madonna one.

I've only seen a few of them but I do like "White And Nerdy", "Smells Like Nirvana", "Canadian Idiot", and "Like A Surgeon".
 
I don't generally watch the videos, but top 5 Weird Al songs (which was very hard to decide on just 5 and not 10, 15 or even 20):

1. The Saga Begins (which has a pretty cool video, too)
2. White and Nerdy
3. Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota
4. Tacky (also has a funny video)
5. Ode to a Superhero
 
All my favorite Weird Al stuff is from the early 80's. Not that he hasn't done some good ones since then.

Like A Surgeon
Eat It
Fat
Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies
I Think I'm A Clone Now

Great songs and great videos.

Of course these and many others are spoofs of songs I actually listened to,
unlike most of his later output, so they speak to me a little more.
 
I LOVE "Word Crimes." After spending all day reading test papers, I can appreciate it probably more than most.

I also like:
"White and Nerdy"
"Tacky."
"Eat It."
"One More Minute."
 
This may not be an official video, but I like it anyway. :lol:

I like "Tacky" but am I the only one who has problems with hearing the words? The celebrity dancing goes along way in still making it a fun video to watch.
