3 - Weird Al "Like A Virgin" - Madonna's Like a Virgin

It is Weird Al but the last word is not "virgin" but rhymes with "virgin."

Quoting:
5 - Think it maybe Shad-Rapp...that's all...

You are way off…

I thought he got #3 before me, but I guess not.

-Weird Al's "Like a Surgeon"- from Madonna's "Like a Virgin."
End Quote

Yes, the correct word was "surgeon," not "virgin."

Quoting:
What an annoying set of lyrics ;-)  I'm sure I've heard 4&5 before, but can't quite place them (number four is definitely a hard one ;-)); I'd have got Like a Surgeon, too - but wasn't quick enough.  

Number one is (from web search) The Battle of Cucamonga (or Camp Kookamonga) which seems to fit the tune of "Cool for Cats" at least as far as the verse goes, but somehow I doubt it.

Stumped.

Well, you got the title of parody #1 correct; I need the artist and the song that's being spoofed.  (The song is from 1959.)

#2 spoofs a "splatter-platter" of the 1960's; the song spoofed was covered by Twisted Sister in the 1980's.

#4 is quite a toughie; it's by a group that turns 1960's and 1970's R&B classics into bluegrass numbers and contains a former member of the Eagles.  This is the only known parody by them.

#5 is by a guy that usually spoofs country songs; this is his best-known attempt at spoofing a rock song.

The Battle of New Orleans by Johnnie Horton, parody by Homer & Jethro (Henry D. Haynes and Kenneth C. Burns)

Oh, isn't Google wonderful?

Number 5 - are we talking David Allan Coe here?

You're right about #1.  But you're way off base on #5.  BTW, the artist of #5 is to country music as Weird Al Yankovic is to rock music…

Quoting:
Cledus T Judd?
End Quote

Yep, that's the artist of #5.  Now what's the title and what song does it spoof?

I have no clue.

Quoting:
Kid Rock...I'll take a wild guess at the song... "Cowboy"?

You got the song spoofed right--now can you guess the title of the song that Cledus T. Judd parodized it with?  It rhymes with "cowboy" and Americans spell it with seven letters while it takes the Brits nine letters to spell…

...you mean to tell me that Americans spell "plough" as "plow"?  Talk about decadent ;-)

Don't you remember Homer Simpson as the "Plow King"?

I never worked out what it meant, though ;-)

I found out over at www.ubl.com (Universal Band Listing) that the group and song are The Detergents "Leader of the Laundromat"

p.s.  thanks for the clues!!!

But what's the song being spoofed?

Quoting:
Doh!  My bad.

The song being spoofed is "Leader of the Pack" by the Shangri-La's

That's right.  And now the quiz is over, although I had to give one of the answers myself and part of another.  Thank you very much.
