Explain yourself

He's fun, I just don't think he belongs in the Hall of Fame for parodying other artists' songs.

He also does original songs and plenty of style parodies that aren't direct parodies of songs.

He's also an extremely talented singer, writer, and accordion player. Like, he's fucking phenomenal.

If I made a list of my 10 favorite Weird Al songs, probably only 1 of them would be a direct parody (Trapped in the Drive-Thru). All my other favorites are originals.

When you consistently have chart topping albums for 30 years fucking straight, yeah it does

He deserves it the most

He's not been topping the charts for 30 years. He's successful enough without exaggerating.

Satire is insanely more easier than original work.

I mean, the guy wrote a song that even Mark Mothersbaugh said was as good a Devo song as Devo themselves ever did ("Dare To Be Stupid").

I'm not sure there is a single musician out there than can say they own a type of music the same way Weird Al can claim to own musical parodies.

This. The guy is insanely talented, and seems pretty well universally liked and respected. I'd like to see him there.

I can see the argument being something along the lines of "Weird Al inducted among the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc?" Well yeah, but they put pretty much anyone in there these days. Even if they never released a single "rock" song.

Weird Al has had insane longevity and basically single-handedly crafted and defined an entire genre of music. I'd say he could fit in there just fine.
