The fact that he's taking it so damn seriously is why it works. The rest of the album is mostly the same joke that gets tired pretty quick, but "Wonderwall" has this bizarre quality where it seems as though it was always a Paul Anka easy-listening swing song. It works way better that way than as, say, an Oasis song.

As for the Hall of Fame, my initial intention was to aim contemporary, and have actually gotten a much higher percentage of classic artists than I really wanted (although every single one of them was deserving). The rule, incidentally, is that ten years must have passed since the release of their first album. Ben Folds Five's eponymous debut was in 1995, therefore, they qualify. They were also one of the first "Breakthrough Artist" winners, and this is the 10th annual version of the awards, so I really couldn't resist.

And as for "When The President Talks To God", since when I do need more than a bunch of empty putdowns and caricatures?
