 Howl » 2005 » March
So, for Howl ’s inaugural Song Of The Day, I offer Dare To Be Stupid (3.2M), a song that (for me) sums up most of 80’s culture and music.
His 1985 Dare To Be Stupid album was one of my favorites for a long, long time.
I’m not sure why this is exactly; possibly the combination of familiary (since he did mainly covers of popular songs) and silliness (there’s no denying that Another One Rides The Bus or Don’t Wear Those Shoes are anything but insanely silly).

 Review for: "Dare To Be Stupid"
While most of this album includes songs that would be considered 'average' when compared to Al's other greats, the album does include a few enduring favorites: Like A Surgeon, Dare To Be Stupid, One More Minute, Yoda, and This Is The Life.
If Al had to go back and redo an album, this would be the one I hope he would do: go back and elaborate more on the songs that didn't have enough 'spark' to them.
Firsts on this album include Al's first song written for a movie, This Is The Life.

 Eye - Super Troopers - 02.14.02
Super Troopers is hit-and-miss enough to be considered an honorary inductee into the canon of Saturday Night Live spinoffs.
The title of this comedy refers not to the ABBA song (which in turn refers to a type of powerful spotlight) but to a group of hapless Vermont state troopers who patrol an area close to the Canadian border.
In moments like these, the movie exhibits a relaxed charm — but Super Troopers’ crude and stupid moments (like the apparently obligatory animal-humping scene) are neither relaxing nor charming.

 Girls Just Want To Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper Songfacts
Weird Al Yankovic wrote a parody of this for his 1985 album Dare To Be Stupid called "Girls Just Want To Have Lunch." He was very resistant to writing or recording it, but his label insisted on having him do a Cyndi Lauper send-up.
