Bad Hair Day

Bad Hair Day is the ninth studio album by "Weird Al" Yankovic, released on March 12, 1996. It was the third studio album self-produced by Yankovic. The album produced an array of hit comedy singles; lead single " Amish Paradise", which lampoons both Coolio's " Gangsta's Paradise" and the Amish lifestyle, charted at number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100, while " Gump", which parodies " Lump" by The Presidents of the United States of America and the movie Forrest Gump, charted at 102.

The musical styles on the album are built around parodies and pastiches of pop and rock music of the mid-1990s, largely targeting alternative rock and hip-hop alike. The album also includes style parodies, imitations of specific artists like They Might Be Giants and Elvis Costello. "Amish Paradise" caused a minor controversy after rapper Coolio expressed distaste at having his song parodied by Yankovic, although the two later made amends.

Bad Hair Day was met with mixed to positive reviews, with many critics praising "Amish Paradise" in particular; "Amish Paradise" went on to become one of Yankovic's best-known singles. The album peaked at number fourteen on the Billboard 200. Bad Hair Day sold 1,317,000 copies in the US in 1996 alone, the highest sales tally for any comedy album in a single calendar year since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991. Bad Hair Day was Yankovic's sixth Gold record in the United States, and went on to be certified Platinum for sales of over one million copies in the US by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album was also certified Platinum in Canada by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA).
