| SINGLES SPAWNED FROM THIS ALBUM |
Fat
Lasagna
I Think I'm A Clone Now
Parody/original ratio: 5/6
Food songs: "Lasagna" (7) (no, we're not counting "Fat" because that's not really about food)
Love songs: "You Make Me" (3), "Melanie" (4), "Alimony" (5)
Song songs: "(This Song's Just) Six Words Long" (1)
The first ALbum cover to parody another album cover.
With the exception of "Fat," all of this album's parodies are of popular remakes of songs.
Debuted at #122 in Billboard. It would eventually stay on the "Billboard 200" chart for twenty-six weeks, a record for an Al release until 1992.
Released in Japan on June 21, 1988. Due to problems with the translation, the Japanese (and Korean) issue of this album was titled Fat.
ALbum title/song connection: The album title, cover, and lead-off single all parody (and each in a unique way) those of Michael Jackson's album Bad.
Al's first release to go Platinum.
The only studio ALbum to be promoted with just one music video.
Also, the first studio ALbum to not be promoted with a coinciding concert tour.
The first ALbum since 1983 to not include a polka medley.
