Favourite Parody/funny/quirky songs and music videos
January 17, 2018 at 5:44 pm
This is a thread for all your favourite music parodies, or songs with funny or quirky lyrics of videos.
I'll start:
Weird Al (of course), CNR:
Have at it!

"You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"

I love Weird Al, but not familiar with this parody, is it an original or spoof of a real artist? I'd have to watch the real artist to catch the context.
No, this isn't a parody of another song (as far as I'm aware).
It's an original song based on a former US sports broadcaster, I believe.
Pay particular attention to the scene with the mounted heads. You'll see Chuck Norris there...

Here's a little ditty from the '60s that amuses me. It's a catchy little tune-
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

It's funny, I wish I could have played the CNR song for my late mom. She liked Charles Nelson Reilly back then.
But I did play this song for her either in early 17 or late 16 and she liked it. It was a spoof of "Party In The USA"

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
