Well, there's a random combo if I ever heard one.

For me personally those two bring the most cringe value when I suddenly hear them again.

Voltaire is cool, but it just seems a little juvenile now.

I think if Voltaire took himself seriously, then he would be cringe, but it's clear that he doesn't.

Some people don't think that humor belongs in music, and that's okay. But it's kind of like calling Weird Al cringe. It makes me think that you don't understand the artist.

Weird Al doesn't sing about undead teddy bears, vampires, and the beast of pirates bay. Weird Al sings about being fat, discount groceries, and being stuck in the drive through.
