Once Chucky gets the parodies updated then you miht see my newest ones.
End Quote

Me, too:
"Parody City"  - an Amiright one to the tune of Parodise City
"Gravity" - to Tragedy by the Bee Gees
"Because I Can Fly" - to Because I Got High
"Tokin' In The Bedroom"  - to Smokin' In The Boys Room
"Drive a White Van" - to T Rex's Ride A White Swan

PS I wish I knew more of the originals of the tunes you parody: I haven't even heard of any of those bands, let alone the songs :-(  An old fogey signs off...

Quoting:
This is my 1st week here and there should be a lot of parodies by me showing up on friday. It's probably a good thing that the 2 computers that i originally wrote most of my parodies on both don't work at the moment (i have most of those songs printed out) or else i might have gotten carried away and submitted 40 songs in a week. Anyway, i'm pretty sure i've submitted 9 so far (6 as tone-def and 3 as ethan mawyer) including 2 that i wrote this week and I should have another one done soon. I think from now on, i might to keep my submissions a little lower per week so i do not drive chucky insane
End Quote

I used to have a policy of no more than two submissions a day.. but that was when I was still cutting and pasting them out of email (gotta check my email come to think of it, I think there's still a couple in there).. I could probably handle more than that, but I think two or three a day (if I'm doing regular updates) will increase the chances people might read them.. if they see a flood of 50 in one day from the same author, I doubt most people will read all of them

"and ones that i'm working on:
"McDonald's" to Black Lab's "Learn To Crawl" (interesting because I work at McD. and i reference myself as the drive thru guy hehe)"

hey man I use to work at McDonalds so I did a parody to Eminems song "My Dads Gone Crazy" and I parodied it to "He's Down Once Again".  basically it about me being down on product at work.  should check it out sometime.

yeah i work there now we just went franchise, well as of next monday we will. i've been there twqo weeks. actualy i ws at work when i came up witht he idea for that parody :D

Quoting:
I finally made some more:

Dead...parody of Fat by weird al

Coke...parody of Yoda by weird al

Yes, i do like weird al.

By the way, this is my first post.
End Quote

actually, "Fat" is a parody of Michael Jackson's "Bad", and "Yoda" is a parody of The Kinks (correct me if I'm wrong) "Lola". It kinda bothers me when people make parodies of parodies.

yes, i know. The only reason i didn't acknowledge them is because there's no tune to a written parody on this site, and since i used the words to Al's songs, i credited him

Quoting:
...being at 49 parodies now, I'm trying to make the 50th a bit special: it's a tribute to Peter Cook and Dudley More (sadly both now deceased) called "Derek and Clive" to the tune of American Pie... it's taken me a while, as American Pie is so darned long!

Power to the parodistas!

And it turned out very good!

Quoting:
i'm in the middle of 2 songs now and i also have a bunch of ideas... not going to say anything about them just in case i end up never finishing them. I also have tons of songs in folders a few feet away from me... including several that are almost definitely better than anything i've posted so far.  I would like a little assurance that songs on this site are safe from stealing before i go posting all my best songs though.

Well, some people do copy (and paste, I might add) other people's work, but once you let Chuck know, he'll take it right off.

If you see that someone has stolen your parody (copied it and used their own name) you let Chuck know on the messageboard (the guy who runs the site) or email him or something, give him a link, and he'll take the copied one off the site.

I just had "Traction" (a parody of Sweet's "Action") brought up yesterday. So, don't forget to read it a tell me what you think. ;)

Does anyone here bother writing for whatfreaks.com?  
End Quote

I don't explicity write for whatfreaks (or write anything explicit explicitly for whatfreaks, IYSWIM), however, I have posted three or four which haven't made it past Chucky to amiright...

...and the parody "Turn the noise down" I was working on to "Bring the house down" by SClub 7 kind of mutated into "Bring your mouth down" which is a candidate for whatfreaks if ever there was one...

Phil

Quoting:
I've just submitted "Jaywalkers" a parody to Aerosmiths song "Walk This Way"
Bryan O Connors song "How Long Its Taking" parody to Nickelbacks "How You Remind Me" was quite hilarious.

thanks! geez, now i'mgoing to have create even better ones hehe. i still have 3 WDW (or Walt Disney World) parodies to go. been thinking of a few other's as well, something to "Easy Tonight" by Five For Fighting. i don't know what else, since i stopped watching MTV and listening to the radio, i'm runni9ng out of ideas lol

just posted another disney world ride parody and an old parody i wrote a long time ago in agalxy far far away called "proton stream" to offsprings self-esteem.

Quoting:
bryan i'm curious why you have so many disneyworld parodies do you live by orlando or do you just really really like that place? Disneyworld is a great place btw and i think they should consider giving you a job in their advertising department if you would want to do something like that... of course i don't know how to get disney people to notice your songs i doubt they visit here
End Quote

uh oh! you fond my obbssesion! yes, i love disney world, the atmosphere and everything about it. i actually do consider on moving to orlando and trying to get a job there (i live in charlotte now). i never thought of advertising...i was looking for ride operator actually hehe....i was writing a script for one of their rides to be made into a movie but they greenlighted hauntemansion to be made :( not only WDW but i love ghostbusters and back to the future. expect more parodies of those within the next wee...er, months.

well, i've compiled a list of songs that are being worked on to become parodies:

"Murray" to Puddle of Mudd's "Blurry"
"The Sims: House Party" to Beastie Boys "Fight For Your Right"
"Walt Disney World" to Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle"
"Space Mountain" to U2's "Beautiful Day"
"Pirates of The Carribean" to Green Day's "Warning"
"Back To The Future Part II" to "Science Fiction, Double Feature"
"88 Lines About Back To The Future" to Nails "88 Lines About 44 Women"

I guess Chucky didn't like my parody to Queen's "Dreamer's Ball"... (called "Infected Ball" about a vasectomy that went wrong, and based on a true story).

I thought I'd toned it down enough... still, there's always whatfreaks ;-)

Phil
PS I hope that "Crap" to the tune of "Bad" gets through the censor's scissors- I submitted that a few minutes ago.
End Quote

yeah.. that one seemed a little too off-color.. started off ok I think, but there's was just too much.. discussion of the nether regions  ;D

Quoting:
Great page, Junior!  I can't wait to see some of those upcoming parodies!!
End Quote

Thanks! I'm almost done with "That's Just A Fad" (which the title is being changed to "Fads") and "Watchin' The Mole". I've also been working on "amIright" (the "A Thousand Miles" parody), "Osbourne Family", & "Smell Your Feet", but I'm stuck on those parodies.

It's all true, too: a welsh chap I was working with regaled us with the details one afternoon after a moderately liquid lunch (said with a Welsh accent): "size of a football, it was.  I couldn't sit down for a week"

Never mind, there's plenty more where that came from.  I'm trying to find a Green Day song for a Star Wars parody ATM...

OK, I have just submitted my first parody.  I've no idea what the censorship criteria are but I don't foresee any problems.

It's called "Cooped up in Ramallah (Arafat's lament)" to the tune of Wall of Voodoo's 'far side of crazy'
It's not comedy!

IKWYM, though I do wish he'd pick a different subject sometimes... I wasn't that impressed with this lot of his offerings.

You gotta admit- he does have excellent pacing, though.  If I vote on his songs, I'll almost always vote 4 or 5 on pacing.  His words fit right and rhyme with the original, and that's a good thing.

Definitely: they're (nearly) always spot on rhythmically, it's just that the subject matter is so limited and the same types of rhymes come up again and again (probably becuase the subject matter etc etc)

Bat out of Hell (Meatloaf) is just too damn long to parody  :-/

I don't know about anyone else, but I have some cool ideas, then I struggle to fill out the whole song (especially one of this length)
End Quote

I've given up a couple of times on "Bat out of Hell", too - you come up with a cool parody idea, say "Cat Out The Well" (or "Let Out A Smell" ;-))... but you end up saying the same things over and over, or sometimes just repeating yourself...

Yeah!
I've got to the start of the second verse (Battering ram) but my lyrics are pretty much complete, as you say, any more will drag on and involve unnessary repetition.
I'll slog on for a while then post it as a fragment if I can't tie it all up.
It's a pity 'cos there's a few phrases I particularly like.

I've submitted the rock classic "Wonderful Smell" (Bat out of Hell, Meatloaf)
