the law supports Weird Al's ability to parody without permission. He asks the artist before he makes the parodies. Even after the confusion with Coolio, I don't believe Weird Al has ever been sued for something that had anything to do with his songs and artist/angry fans of the artist he parodied.
Check out "The Essential "Weird Al" Yankovic" for 38 of his best.
The most famous song that Weird Al has parodied is "Beat It" by Michael Jackson. Weird Al's rendition was named "Eat It". Weird Al has also Parodied Madonna's "Like a Virgin" with his "Like a Surgeon", and also Coolio's "Gangsta's Paradise" with "Amish Paradise".
I'm not sure but it sounds like Weird Al
Absolutely not. Al is very considerate of the artists he parodies. He won't go forward with any material unless the original artist gives the OK. If fact, it is now seen as a compliment to have Weird Al parody your song.
