Here's another exciting entry in this Holiday themed column, 25 Days Of Christmas Pop Culture! From now until Christmas Eve, I'll be tackling one piece of Christmas pop culture! It could be a book, movie, TV special, song....so long as it's festive for this time of the year, it'll be checked out in this daily column!
Part of the joy of enjoying a specific musicians work is seeing what happens when that singer tries out new genres or tones for their music. That's partly why Weird Al is so much fun as a singer; many of his songs are parodies of popular tunes. and that gives him the chance to explore many different musical genres by lampooning the songs of Coolio, Michael Jackson and Iggy Azalea. It was only a matter of time before he tackled Christmas, and in The Night Santa Went Crazy (an original tune, not a parody song), Al puts his own talent to great use in this holiday creation.
