Reviews Customer Reviews for Dare To Be Stupid      You'd be stupid not to      Rating:      This and in 3-D are by far Weird Al's best albums. Yoda is such a classic parody peice, that it alone is worth owning a copy, but the rest are just as good.     Customer Reviews for Dare To Be Stupid Cd      Dare To Be Entertained      Rating:      "Dare To Be Stupid" is classic "Weird" Al. It has pop favorites "Like A Surgeon" and "Girls Just Want To Have Lunch," but Al shows his genius with "Dare to be Stupid," "Yoda," and the tremendously creative "One More Minute." This is a CD that every "Weird" Al Yankovic fan should have. Editorial Reviews for Dare To Be Stupid Audio Cd      Amazon.com      A handful of contemporary movies have whimsically looked back at the '80s. Various bands have borrowed from the time period's musical trends with a tongue-in-cheek attitude. But Weird Al was busy sending up that decade while it was still happening. On Dare to Be Stupid, Yankovic parodies, among other things, smash hits by two reigning divas of yore. "Like A Surgeon" turns Madonna's song into an inexperienced doctor's first-person account of his, uh, practice. Weird Al's version of a certain Cyndi Lauper hit proclaims, "Girls Just Want to Have Lunch." In this loony world, the object of desire in "I Want a New Drug" is transformed into a duck. On "Yoda," Yankovic targets the Kinks' early '70s hit, "Lola." Who else but Weird Al would turn a song about sexual identity and confusion into a tune about George Lucas's "wrinkled and green" creature? --Fred Cisterna
