The discography of "Weird Al" Yankovic, an American singer-songwriter and parodist, consists of thirteen studio albums (including one collaborative album), one soundtrack album, ten compilation albums, nine video albums, three extended plays, forty-six singles and forty-six music videos. Since his first-aired comedy song in 1976, he has sold more than 12 million albums—more than any other comedy act in history—recorded more than 150 parody and original songs, and performed more than 1,000 live shows.[1][2][3] His works have earned him three Grammy Awards among nine nominations, four gold records, and six platinum records in the United States.[4][5]
Yankovic's debut single, "My Bologna", was released in 1979. He made his chart debut with his second single, "Another One Rides the Bus", which peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart.[6] His self-titled debut studio album was released on Scotti Brothers Records in April 1983. It peaked at number 16 on the US Billboard 200 and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[5][7] "Ricky", the album's third single, became his first single to chart on the US Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 64 on the chart.[8] "Weird Al" Yankovic in 3-D, his second studio album, was released in February 1984. It peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum by the RIAA,[5][7] while also charting in Australia and Canada.[9][10] The album's lead single, "Eat It", peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold by the RIAA.[5][8] It became Yankovic's first single to chart in international markets, becoming a number-one hit in Australia and peaking at number 5 in Canada.[11][12] The album's second and third singles, "King of Suede" and "I Lost on Jeopardy", peaked at numbers 62 and 81 on the Hot 100 respectively.[8] Dare to Be Stupid, his third studio album, was released in June 1985 and peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200.[7] The album spawned six singles, including "Like a Surgeon", which peaked at number 47 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was a top 40 hit in Australia and Canada.[8][11][12]
Polka Party!, his fourth studio album, was released in October 1986. Peaking at number 177 on the Billboard 200, the album and its accompanying singles failed to match the commercial success of Yankovic's previous work.[7] His fifth studio album, Even Worse, performed better commercially, peaking at number 27 on the Billboard 200 and being certified gold by the RIAA.[5][7] It also spawned the single "Fat", which peaked at number 99 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became a top 15 hit in Australia.[8][11] In 1989, Yankovic starred in and recorded the soundtrack for the 1989 film UHF. The soundtrack album was released in July 1989, peaking at number 146 on the Billboard 200.[7] The album Peter and the Wolf, a collaboration with American composer Wendy Carlos, was released in October 1988. Off the Deep End, Yankovic's seventh studio album, was released in April 1992. It peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.[5][7] Three singles were released from the album, including the Billboard Hot 100 top 40 hit "Smells Like Nirvana".[8] Alapalooza, his eighth studio album, was released in March 1996. The album peaked at number 46 on the Billboard 200, but produced no charting singles.[7] Bad Hair Day, Yankovic's ninth studio album, peaked at numbers 9 and 14 respectively on the Canadian Albums Chart and Billboard 200.[7][10] "Amish Paradise", the album's first single, peaked at number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100.[8]
Yankovic's tenth studio album, Running with Scissors, was released in June 1999 on new label Volcano Records. It peaked at number 16 on the Billboard 200, also reaching the top 20 in Australia and Canada.[7][9][10] "Pretty Fly for a Rabbi" was the album's only charting single, peaking at number 67 in Australia.[11] Poodle Hat, Yankovic's eleventh studio album, was released in May 2003. It peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200.[7] "eBay" was released as the album's only single in 2007, peaking at number 15 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart.[13] Straight Outta Lynwood, his tenth studio album, was released in September 2006. It peaked at number 10 on the Billboard 200, becoming Yankovic's first top ten album on the chart.[7] Its lead single, "White & Nerdy", peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking Yankovic's first top ten single on the chart.[8] Alpocalypse, his thirteenth studio album, was released in June 2011. It peaked at number 9 on the Billboard 200.[7]
