Your old man and me
I used to riiiide across the deserts you know, I used to gliiiide on my speeder, pray that I dont fiiind… what i don’t wanna find
This was the one I was coming to add. It gets stuck in my head for weeks.
I think of these trilogy of songs often
Easy: Party in the CIA
Hard: I need a crit (Cantina Thirteen) a parody of simple plan"s I’m just a Kid
Seconded Party in the CIA!
I cant hear American Pie without it turning into Weird Al’s The Saga Begins
Don McLean almost sing Weird Al’s lyrics too during live performances…
Maybe a stretch as it’s not parodying a song but parodies Star Wars kinda sorta? Seagulls! (Stop it Now)
Lonely Island has a few (Jack Sparrow) comes to mind but again not a direct parody of a specific song.
Richard Cheese does straight up covers but they are so stylistically different that it’s basically a parody. Chop Suey
Then there’s the classic comedy music duos: Garfunkel & Oates (Loophole), Flight of the Conchords (Business Time)
Bo Burnham’s whole Inside special is fantastic too.
Looks like I’m mostly listing comedy music and not necessarily parodies, but oh well.
The Bad Lip Sync version of Gotye (Kicked Your Monkey And I Used Your Goat) kinda always comes to mind
I found it (in the mid-2000s as a preteen) before I consciously learned about the original Bohemian Rhapsody, so every time I now hear the latter, my mind immediately goes “what happen, what happen, somebody set up us the bomb, somebody set up us the bomb”.
Getting strong 2007 newgrounds vibes
- Y.O.D.A. - YODA (Weird Al)
- Hello Muddah, Hello Fuddah (Alan Sherman), based on a song from the opera La Gioconda
Marge, is Lisa at Camp Granada?
If its parody songs specifically, then hard mode isn’t possible for me
But if comedy music is allowed, much of Ninja Sex Party is on repeat, as well as a bunch of Tim Minchin’s work
I first visited London only a few months after this came out. It was stuck in my head the moment I got on the platform at Heathrow.
I cannot listen to The Jam without this playing in my head.
I saw ‘The Jam’ and clicked the link.
I’m ruined.I just went on Youtube and watched the real song that was posted 15 years ago.
The comments are flooded with “RIP Rick Buckler” (drummer) from 15 days ago.
Now I’m ruined.
Bo Burnham’s Kanye Rant
Nanobot by A Capella Science. The whole channel is pretty good, but this song just shines above the pack. Shivers every time:
Love is A Battlefield literal video is hilarious to me.
Lmfao! So many good quotes
- We only walk forwards in this house!
- Guy with a pedo moustache pulls me into a slow dance
- So let’s gang up on this guy and make him watch us dance
If you like that, here’s the Total Eclipse of the Heart literal video, which I also find hilarious.

This is Pat Finnerty’s (accurate) take on writing a hit Offspring song.
The Ghoul - He got the wrong foot amputated, parody of Come and Play by the Offspring
