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.
Nanobot by A Capella Science. The whole channel is pretty good, but this song just shines above the pack. Shivers every time:
To the tune of the wanderer
“Well I’m the kinda guy who fucks his mom and dad”
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
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
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.
I had a friend who sung I Can’t Feel my Face when I’m with you, as I can’t feel my face when I Go POOP and that is all I will ever hear now.
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)
I am never forget the day I first meet the great Lobachevsky. He took me by the hand, and beat my head against the wall! In one word, in one word he told me the secret of success in mathematics: Plagiarize!

This is Pat Finnerty’s (accurate) take on writing a hit Offspring song.
Hey it’s pat finnerty big up my dude
…Da Hoop Shredding Gigolo…
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!
Easy Mode: Amish Paradise
Hard Mode: Shia LaBeouf
The Ghoul - He got the wrong foot amputated, parody of Come and Play by the Offspring
United breaks guitars.
Not quite parody but…
