Weird Al before Weird Al was born. Well, he was born I guess, but like 10 years old.

Allan adapted this from Ted Weems’ 1938 Decca recording of “Heartaches”. This is a jab at aspirin commercials, especially Anacin’s (which promised “Fast, Fast, Fast Relief From Headache Pain”)- their ads usually featured an adult screaming at a kid simply because they’re so tensed up, or a young woman screams at her mother {“Mother, PLEASE! I’d rather do it myself!!”}.

1:37 is, in fact, a parody of another deathless line from those ads {HUSBAND: “Can’t you keep Billy’s bike out of the driveway???”}. From the 1963 album, “My Son, the Nut”.

@Horhayj
Weird Al has stated repeatedly that Allan Sherman was one of his major inspirations, along with Spike Jones, Tom Lehrer, and all of the artists played on the Dr Demento Show in the 70′s. In my opinion, Al and Allan are equally masters of the parody genre.

Tell her to have her doc hook her up with a nutritionist. I tried every diet & it failed. I had HBP, & high cholesterol & weighed 222#. I went to see a nutritionist who took my labwork, asked me ?? about my lifestyle & told me what & when to eat. No calorie counting just common sense. It’s been a year. All of my health problems are resolved & I weigh 179 – 43# lighter & am happy & active. BC/BS covers this now but last year they didn’t. It was still the best $ 75.00 I ever spent & I have never been hungry.

Diet and exercise do help, but she really should be taking her meds. Tell her to make an appointment with her doctor. Sometimes the meds can be changed or at least adjusted. High blood pressure (or hypertension) is know as the silent killer because there are rarely any symptoms. If your girlfriend is suffering from headaches her blood pressure is probably very high. Unchecked this can lead to CVA (stroke) and sometimes death.

Most common answers would be: lose weight, don’t smoke, don’t drink alcohol, exercise. After that there are many medications. If one doesn’t work, ask doctor to try another. You can find many sensible diets on the internet. WebMD, Health Central and others give medical advice.

diet will help but not immediately. she should eat more fruits and vegetable.
some not very active sport may help, e.g. golf or fast walking. it’s all about moving and breathing fresh air as often as possible.
