Mos Def

He still draws big crowds after all these years.

Absolutely

👍

When a musician can measure their own success based upon whether or not their songs have been parodied by him, yes!!

Not.

I’m all for it. And Phil Collins also deserves a spot!

Absolutely. Amazed he's not there already.

I agree 👍

I lost on jeopardy is all i can remember. He produced a harvest that never spoiled. Side pressure vexing is like strong laws that protect forests in my home state.

Totally!

He’s definitely been a part of my life soundtrack

@joekwa.bsky.social @jimmypardo.com

Yes!

Hell yeah

100%

I agree 👍

He has had an everlasting impact on the music industry

Agreed!!

Damn right he should

I agree.

Absolutely! And I highly recommend his movie available on Roku! Maybe Jann “it’s all politics” Wenner could start a Judy Tenuta Accordion Award and make Al the first recipient.

Noooooooo

His mother of course. 😉

Wait, he isn't already in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? He has Top 10 albums 4 different decades in many genres including rock songs.

Definitely 👍

Better yet...He needs to do a movie parodying his induction into the HoF. It's overrated anyway, and he might as well handle it as he always handled everything: Lampooning it!

Why not?

No Brainer. Huge inspiration to folks like myself who love making something fun and funny.

I mean I voted for him.

Absolutely

I just think that the place should not be called The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Maybe it should be called The Music Hall of Fame because many musicians inducted are not long haired headbangers. 🤷‍♀️🤔 -E

He belongs in every Hall of Fame. Shit, I’d put him in baseball before Pete Rose. (Ok y’all, let me have it.😁).

Of course!

Agreed. And also if you’ve never seen one of his live shows, please treat yourself. Really great concert experience, no joke.

And long before I won't mention any names.

YES!!! Yes, yes, YES!!! 👏🏻

Rock stars knew they'd finally MADE IT when Weird Al made a parody of one of their songs. 😁

Wait, he isn't already?!

Only if Ross Bagdasarian (David Seville) gets in first.

Hell ya!

It needs to be a really, really Fat Star!

In fact, Ray Stevens is in the Country Music Hall of Fame, which makes sense inasmuch as that genre was his primary musical focus. The fact that Stevens is in the Country Music Hall of Fame is actually a great argument for why Weird Al should be in the Rock Hall. Thank you for bringing him up!

No, but… Just no.

I never cared for him

Agree!

Agree!

👍🏼😁

Absolutely! I would love to hear a new Polka Album with political parody. Did you know he is here on Bluesky? Roll Out the Tariffs!

Definitely yes

He absolutely does!

I wrote my Shakespeare songs largely because of Weird Al's influence on both me and my children. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUeO...

AMEN! Al is my hero!

No.

There are so many worthy bands that will never end up there. It's a joke.

Hell yes.

Yes

Yup. Tbh. Idk how the fuck he hasn’t been given the honor yet? That man is a legend and made my childhood! I still play sue you when I get annoyed at strangers and have my speaker. Literally stared down a Karen playing that bop.

Weird Al rocks. Also a genuinely good human.

No.

No brainer

Agreed!!!

100%. The first non childrens music album that I owned was Weird Al in 3-D. I think I was 7 or 8 at the time.

You sports team is vastly inferior. That very fact is very plain to see.

I’d finally watch the Super Bowl (last one I saw was III).

He did silly covers of other peoples songs, not really hall of fame in my opinion.

👍👍👍

‘Eat it’ is a really funny take on ‘beat it’

You’ll get no argument from me.

I honestly just assumed he already was.

But. But. He bet on concerts!

million percent

There are quite a few that deserve it before crazy Al

Damn straight.

A solid YES👍😎

I',m surprised he's not already in there. For decades now the true mark of a successful rock band is when Weird Al parodies one of your songs.

To quote Rosencranz and Guildenstern are Dead: "Your Sister!"

Although I am not a huge Weird Al fan, he should be in the hall. He is the king of comedic rock. No one even comes close.

This shouldn't even be a debate.

He doesn't. For "Eat it" alone.

I would certainly vote yes on that.

He is insanely talented. Saw his show in Houston many years ago. He was even better live!!

I assumed he was already in.

I concur!

Hell ya he does!

Seems like I remember it and he was a sweet old man. I'm almost 66. It was quit awhile ago it was some special event. I always enjoyed him was a good laugh. Weird Al too.

Yes!!!

1000%

Damn right he does!!!

100% he does.

Fuck yes he does!!!!

And a Super Bowl Halftime Show

correct

Have to totally agree with that

Hell yes!

How is he not in already?????

Just stop. Al can wait until they open the doors for Huey Lewis and the News.

So much yes!

Duh. Easiest addition.

Absolute Poppycock!

There’s actually a couple songs that are Hall of Fame worthy. Were they radio his radio hits? No. Because they aren’t what people go to him for, so they get overlooked. Aside from all of that, the HOF isn’t about originality. It’s about influence, career longevity, and industry respect.

His stylistic parody songs are classic. Dare To Be Stupid is the greatest Devo song that Devo never did.

Absolutely 100%

Definitely

I stan Weird Al.

Right on! He's brilliant at what he does with the music and lyrics, even if they didn't first belong to him!

Hard agree! He is a hell of a musician and he's definitely had an influence on the music world. I mean, bands consider it an honor to get parodied by him.

Most performances occur before the death of the performer.

Somehow, Madonna got away with it.

As do Jethro Tull

A midnight star, one might say.

I used to be skeptical that he'd even belong, but then I heard a few of his songs and realized it only seems fair.

Yep!!
