"Weird" Al spends weeks gathering point-form notes for each of his parodies, listening to the original tune many times in order to be able to recreate its rhythm and phrasing. (that's how they can sound so close to the original) 2. He always makes a point of getting permission from the original artist(s) of the song, and without it, he won't release his song. (A number of people may remember a blip over coolio's "gangsta paradise", but it's a case of miscommunication between media execs and Al, not that he did it intentionally.) 3. Most artists actually appreciate Al's versions of their song; the parody "like a surgeon" of madonna's "Like a Virgin" actually came at the suggesetion of the star herself, and Nirvana's Kurt Cobain said that he didn't know they'd really made it in music until Al's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." - white&nerdy ;P Eminem's still better | Reviewer: Mate De Vita | 9/30/2007 Weird Al may be good but Eminem's a lot better. So maybe Weird Al copies the song perfectly, but that's just all he does. He copies it and makes it funny. If it wasn't for Eminem's Lose Yourself, then this song wouldn't exist either. Weird Al rules! but... EMINEM RULES MORE!!! HOLY $H*T XD | Reviewer: Tyler | 9/2/2007 I know every single word to lose yourself 8D, and this song copies it PERFECTLY, i think its awesome. Except i get more exited when Eminem comes on. XD ...Damn! | Reviewer: Darius Blackthorne | 8/6/2007 If it wasn't for the fact that Couch Potato features Fear Factor in an obvious place, It'd be hard to tell the original from this parody. That says something 'bout how skilled "Weird Al" is. Still gotta give props to Eminem for writing the original though. It's a damn good bit 'o rap with an equally good parody. EMINEM | Reviewer: ABBY | 7/30/2007 Couch Potato is a great song, i love it....but EMINEM is twenty times greater, 100 times greater. EMINEM RULES. so FUCK all of YOU!!!! LOSERS ROFL | Reviewer: Hans | 7/5/2007 Robert think for a sec, what does a couch potato do? he sits on his big fat butt and watches TV all day. hehe I love this song, like no man said Eminen soooo deserved it... WTF? | Reviewer: Robert | 6/19/2007 I dont get it, the song is called couch potato but he never says couch potato even once in the song. buche | Reviewer: no man | 5/23/2007 HAHAHA... eminem deserved it... he has actually worried for his carrer, cuz of this song... Wow | Reviewer: Daniel | 4/18/2007 He's amazing. Of course not as good a rapper as Eminem, but damn. He even matches rhymes in the same places. Talk about dynamic. He never ceases to amaze me.
