"Weird Al" Yankovic Details 'Mandatory Fun'

BY Alex HudsonPublished Nov 17, 2016

Musical comedy king "Weird Al" Yankovic already promised to enforce Mandatory Fun on July 15, and now he's shared all the details of his latest long-player.

That's the 12-song tracklist down below. While some of the titles will give you a pretty good idea of what the songs contain — "Sports Song" and "NOW That's What I Call Polka!" for example — it's not clear if any these are originals or parodies of existing tunes.

Peruse the titles below, and try to figure out what songs Al might be parodying this time around. We've already heard that he planned to spoof Iggy Azalea.

Starting on July 14, Weird Al will be releasing eight music videos in as many days. At the bottom of the page, watch a couple of teasers for the album. The record is available pre-order.

Mandatory Fun:

1. Handy
2. Lame Claim to Fame
3. Foil
4. Sports Song
5. Word Crimes
6. My Own Eyes
7. NOW That's What I Call Polka!
8. Mission Statement
9. Inactive
10. First World Problems
11. Tacky
12. Jackson Park Express
