About this album

UHF - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and Other Stuff (1989), sometimes referred to simply as UHF, is the soundtrack to the comedy cult film UHF, by “Weird Al” Yankovic. The album featured many music cuts from the movie as well as some of the commercials (“Spatula City”) and other parody bits (“Gandhi II”). The album also featured new original material such as “The Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota”, which brought the running order up to album length. Skits written by Jay Levey, such as “Conan the Librarian” and “Plots R Us” are omitted, as is the original score by John Du Prez.

Yankovic had one parody idea that was refused:
* A parody of Prince’s hit “Let’s Go Crazy” entitled Beverly Hillbillies. Yankovic revealed in the DVD commentary for “UHF” that the concept “Money for Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies” was originally a parody of a Prince song. Prince, however, refused, and has been unopen to any parody ideas Yankovic has ever presented him with.
