- Easy Mode: Weird Al tracks are allowed.
- Hard Mode: No Weird Al.
Easy Mode: Amish Paradise
Hard Mode: Shia LaBeouf
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.
United breaks guitars.
Not quite parody but…
Hey it’s pat finnerty big up my dude
…Da Hoop Shredding Gigolo…
Bo Burnham’s Kanye Rant

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
The Ghoul - He got the wrong foot amputated, parody of Come and Play by the Offspring
Easy Mode:
Definitely 2 of my favorite Weird Al songs that I don’t really hear people ever talk about:
Don’t Download This Song, and Virus Alert.
Hard Mode:
I don’t listen to non-Weird Al parody songs anymore and Haven since late middle school to early highschool, so I got none in my head anymore.
To the tune of the wanderer
“Well I’m the kinda guy who fucks his mom and dad”

This is Pat Finnerty’s (accurate) take on writing a hit Offspring song.
Firm believer that Molecular Shape of You > Shape of You
Its been getting stuck in my head once a month or so for the past 20 years.
Its not even very funny.
A weird mix of the Electric Slide and the Hustle. The two songs mix flawlessly into each other.
A random tiny soundcloud account that did a parody of All Star that’s about the magical girls anime genre…now I want to find it again.
