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’t since late middle school to early highschool, so I got none in my head anymore.

This is Pat Finnerty’s (accurate) take on writing a hit Offspring song.

• Dark Lord Funk
• Pumped Up Kicks (Bardcore)

The Bad Lip Sync version of Gotye (Kicked Your Monkey And I Used Your Goat) kinda always comes to mind

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

I’ve played everything

Love is A Battlefield literal video is hilarious to me.

Nanobot by A Capella Science. The whole channel is pretty good, but this song just shines above the pack. Shivers every time:

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.

Hey it’s pat finnerty big up my dude

Pachelbel Rant by Rob Paravonian

The Ghoul - He got the wrong foot amputated, parody of Come and Play by the Offspring

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
