On February 24, 1989, Yankovic recorded the first original song for the album, "Let Me Be Your Hog". The song is a short rock snippet that is heard in the movie as Newman's uncle Harvey (Stanley Brock) lounges in his pool. Originally, Yankovic had wanted to use the 1974 single "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas for the scene, but he could not obtain the rights for the song, and thus "Let Me Be Your Hog" was recorded. Yankovic then recorded the theme from his movie, the titular "UHF", written in the style of a TV station's large promotional campaign. On February 25, Yankovic recorded the instrumental "Fun Zone", also known as "Stanley Spadowski's Theme". Originally written four years earlier for a failed "Saturday Night Live" replacement titled "Welcome to the Fun Zone", this song is played at the beginning of every "Weird Al" concert.
