      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…

              This was the one I was coming to add. It gets stuck in my head for weeks.

                    Easy: Party in the CIA

                    Hard: I need a crit (Cantina Thirteen) a parody of simple plan"s I’m just a Kid

                        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 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 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.

                                      As an mtg player these parodies are referenced enough that I think of them instead of the originals:

                                      I’ve played everything

                                                      I had a cousin who would sing to her kid to the tune of the CanCan song:

                                                      I’ve got something in my nappy, making me unhappy, tralalala la lalalalalala (repeat)
