Subject: What Was Your First Parody?

Written By: lebeiw15 on 07/06/03 at 10:57 a.m.

What was everyone's first parody here?  Post a link and we can see how much your writing from then compares to the work you do today...

its hard to say what my first parody was. On the first day i had any songs on this site i had about 10 up because it was during the week late last june when there was no updates for a long time. And i wrote quite a few songs that are on the site (probably almost 50) before i found amiright

My first parody I posted here was I've Got To Pee Now, one of the original 10 or 12 on the site (before amiright was even amiright)

http://www.amiright.com/parody/80s/peenow.shtml

The first parody I ever wrote was several years before that, I'm Fat (tune of Stay The Night by Chicago), which I wrote when I was about 14 years old.

Well, according to my "Enhanced info" page, my first parody on amiright was Thunderthighs - one that has scored particularly poorly, I guess because people don't know the original as well as they think...

However, like Taj Mahal Tundoori, it's one I've been playing for many years before posting here.

The first parody I remember writing was to the tune of "The Wanderer" by Status Quo - I wouldn't dream of posting that here as it's a bit libellous to a friend of mine... the chorus goes:
We've seen 'em fondle 'er, hey! fondle 'er
She's been around around around around around
Ah... good memories ;-)

Cooped up in Ramallah (Afarat's lament)

My first parody was about the situation in Palestine and I'm still quite proud of it.  Being a current affairs parody, some of the references have been lost to history but I thought it was clever at the time.

LOL! When I copied the lyrics from the site, it said something about From Green, and I figured that was the band name! Lol, I'll see if Chucky can change it....

My first submittal to Amiright was "The Spinner Fakes It All" (sung to "The Winner Takes It All" by ABBA) during November 2000.  

http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/abba0.shtml

At that time, my web site had been up for about 2 years, and I had already written over 400 political song parodies.  

One of my earliest parodies was my first about Rush Limbaugh, "A Bag of Wind" (sung to "Against the Wind" by Bob Seger), written in 1995:
