EBay (song) Media
The song "eBay", a parody of "I Want It That Way" by Backstreet Boys about the eponymous online auction site, became one of Yankovic's biggest hits.
The album's opening track is "Couch Potato", a parody of Eminem's (pictured) single "Lose Yourself". Although Eminem approved of the parody, he vetoed Yankovic's request to film a music video.
