Still and all, Sade hasn't done badly on the fame-and-fortune side of things.

Oh for sure she is doing well. She is doing what a lot of after fame talent does in doing voice music for TV and movies. 

I just don't see why she didn't get bigger than she did. I could see her being a Madonna or Beyonce.

But like any other industry, the competition is fearce and not everyone will get gigantic.

How can you not see it? Angrboda and I just gave you the answer.

From the man who spoofed Queen and Madonna and Michael Jackson and The Bare Naked Ladies. There is this.

I found the words to "Party in the CIA" rather disturbing, if it remotely reflects reality.

Why? It was poking fun of the original teen party song "Party In the U.S.A." And for your information. It was one of Weird Al's songs I played to my late mother in her nursing home days, and she laughed her ass off with it. Considering my late mother's views on national security and her being a Republican, it was understandable that she got the jokes in it. I will adimit, that maybe she was laughing at more the teeny bopper song it was spoofing than anything else. 

Especialy the part where the carttoon female character put all the men in line in the CIA spoof and  cut Al's character's hair off to give him a buzz. My mom always hated long hair and beards. 

As an anside, If I could put Weird Al and his band on a polygraph I really do think part of that video was not just about Miley Sirus but also Golden Earring.
