    I'll never forget hearing a request for this song on the radio. It was an older woman who called in and said "Can you play that song by the poor man whose girlfriend did awful things to him?" The DJ said "Do you mean "You don't Love me Anymore"." She said "Yes, that poor man. I feel so bad for him." She had the sweetest voice and seemed to truly feel so sorry for Weird Al.

He singing a love song. I'll bet that almost every singer in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has a romantic love song? Al has that sexy voice, us woman like.

    I took my ( at that time ) very young son to see Weird Al in concert at a local college. He was a huge fan and I was...skeptical. Much to my surprise it ended up being one of the funnest gigs I've ever been to. The band were all actually very good musicians and there were lots of props,costume changes,fake black and white science films,tastless commercials,and in the middle of it all...Weird Al...putting on a stellar performance. If you've never seen him live you owe it to yourself to go at least once. The world needs Weird Al.

In a masterful piece of acting that was shamefully overlooked by that year's Academy Awards, he ran the full gamut of emotions as the victim of a firing squad in the opening credits 😂

    When I was young and couldn't understand English yet, my father owned a Weird Al album would always play it in the car. Whenever this song played, I thought it had a deep and sentimental meaning, thus it being my favourite song of the album. Now that I'm playing for the first time in five years, it's still my favourite Weird Al song.

    LYRICS :
    We've been together for so very long
    But now things are changing, oh I wonder what's wrong?
    Seems you don't want me around
    The passion is gone and the flame's died down
    I guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem
    That time that you made it with the whole hockey team
    You used to think I was nice
    Now you tell all your friends that I'm the Antichrist
    Oh, why did you disconnect the brakes in my car?
    That kind of thing is hard to ignore
    Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore
    I knew that we were having problems when
    You put those piranhas in my bathtub again
    You're still the light of my life
    Oh darling, I'm beggin', won't you put down that knife?
    You know, I even think it's kinda cute the way
    You poison my coffee just a little each day
    I still remember the way that you laughed
    When you pushed me down that elevator shaft
    Oh, if you don't mind me asking, what's this poisonous cobra
    Doing in my underwear drawer?
    Sometime I get to thinking you don't love me any more
    You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill
    Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will
    You set my house on fire
    You pulled out my chest hairs with an old pair of pliers
    Oh, you think I'm ugly and you say that I'm cheap
    You shaved off my eyebrows while I was asleep
    You drilled a hole in my head
    Then you dumped me in a drainage ditch and left me for dead
    Oh, you know this really isn't like you at all
    You never acted this way before
    Honey, something tells me you don't love me any more, oh no no
    Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

    I first heard this song when I was a teen. I got emotional hearing it and was welling up in tears. I was thinking "why would a girl do such a cruel thing to a man, who still loves her, and is willing to put up with her!? Knowing who Weird AL Yankovic was... the music he did... and the fact that there may have been some humor involved... I looked past all that and was listening to the story along with the melody... and even today I still feel the same way when I hear it. This song is so sad and yet so damn funny... and is one of my all time favorites.

Add it, and though still horrifying, it becomes hysterically funny because-wait, this isn’t the first time she tried to kill him with piranha???

The way that he makes it so that you wonder if she doesn't love him anymore, if these are all accidents, or if she's being hired by reptilians that are part of a Rebel space fleet trying to destroy the world thereby putting mosquitos into extinction. The way he presents the lyrics in a way where you as well feel his sadness and wonder about alien life and reptilians. I can hear through the whole song the hatred of the space government and the want to alliance with the alien rebels who are trying to kidnap all the cows in the universe. 20/10 would listen to till my ears drop off or the space government kills me
