- Easy Mode: Weird Al tracks are allowed.
- Hard Mode: No Weird Al.
Bo Burnham’s Kanye Rant
Pachelbel Rant by Rob Paravonian
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
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.
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.
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…
49 times we fought that beast
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
I think of these trilogy of songs often
This was the one I was coming to add. It gets stuck in my head for weeks.
Easy Mode: Amish Paradise
Hard Mode: Shia LaBeouf
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!
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
All the Bardcore covers by Hildegard Von Blingin are amazing.
That bardcore one is surprisingly good
