Some of his songs are actually pretty beautiful, as well as comedic.

I'm not saying comedians can't be good musicians (the south park guys have done it well)... but it's obnoxious when they try to be Rock Stars. There's a big difference between a rock star and a musician.
I'm just saying that it's annoying when a comedian takes himself that seriously. Rock Stars are the most egotistical and least self-aware people on the planet. Good comedians should have too much self awareness to ever take themselves that seriously.
