Best Songs on "Weird Al" Yankovic in 3-D

You're right! I accidentally included an em dash. Here's the fully corrected version without any em dashes:

"Weird Al" Yankovic in 3-D (often referred to as In 3-D) is the second studio album by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It was recorded from October 1 to December 13, 1983, and was released by Rock 'n' Roll Records.

The music on the album is built around parodies and pastiches of pop and rock music from the mid-1980s. Half of the album consists of parodies, featuring jabs at Michael Jackson, Men Without Hats, The Greg Kihn Band, The Police, and Survivor. The other half is original material, including many "style parodies," which are musical imitations that closely resemble, but do not directly copy, specific works by existing artists. These style parodies include imitations of artists like Bob Marley and The B-52s.

This album marked a musical departure from Yankovic's self-titled debut, as the arrangements of the parodies were now closer to the originals. Additionally, the accordion was no longer used in every song, instead appearing only when deemed appropriate or wholly inappropriate for comedic effect.

The album is also notable for being the first Yankovic release to feature a polka medley of hit songs. These pastiches, in which hit songs are reimagined with polka instrumentation, have since appeared on nearly all of Yankovic's albums.
