This challenge originated in the TOP SECRET SONG PARODY FACEBOOK GROUP that everybody knows about.  The first one went really well, so we're going to start advertising here and on the front page so that people not in the group can participate as well.  Anyone with questions can leave them here or in the comment section of the Events Page notification.  Or in the comment section of one of my parodies, I'll definitely see that haha.  Okay.  So the main thing to know is that the parodies should appear on AmiRight on Thursday May 31st, so they should be submitted Wednesday.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ever wish you could travel back in time to the Golden Age of AmiRight?  Well gas up your DeLorean, because we know exactly when lightning is gonna strike the clock tower!  On Thursday, May 31st, a crapload of AmiRight blasts from the pasts will all be showing up back at their old stomping grounds for the MADONNA'S CRAZY CARTOONS - In honor of cartoons and comic books... The challenge is to parody any song by the cone-bra wearing tart: Madonna, and make it about something to do with cartoons like the kissing Spider-Man upside down in the rain OR the Batmobile running out of gas OR why Garfield hates Mondays it's really up to you. Anything is up for grabs, INCLUDING NOT FOLLOWING THE CHALLENGE PARAMETERS AT ALL.

See, the main point of the challenge is really the reunion aspect, where all these great authors pick two days a month (one near the middle and one at the end) to show up back here and resume the great camaraderie and encouragement that characterized this place back in the day.  So even if you're like "Who the hell is Madonna"?  Or "Who the hell is Crankshaft?"  You can still write a parody about whatever the hell you want, show up, and know that there will most likely be an amazingly receptive  potential audience for your work, especially provided you're one of those brilliant people who understand that Golden Rule thing.  So have fun, good luck, and we'll see you there!

Definitely got a bunch of Madonna songs in my list for this one, but just to clarify: the thread title implies the topic du jour is cartoons, but your three examples are comic characters. Is this a different definition that I simply don't share? Or is it a genuine flub?  There is that "in honor of cartoons and comic books" line, but that seems a bit...broad for a topic, IMO, so I'm just checking.

It was ORIGINALLY just comics but it turns out that CARTOONS and CARTOON CHARACTERS was the theme

May 31 is a Thursday, not a Monday, or a Friday.

Bring out your time-travelling forum-post-correcting superpowers and fix this! :P

That was super-fast! :)

I'm gonna do a parody of "MATERIAL GIRL" and call it "JON ARBUCKLE FOOL"

I also want to do a parody about "Rick and Morty" as well but I'm not sure how I want to handle that one...

Maybe one about "Adventure Time" as well...

Well.... I just finished "Rick and Morty" to "Like A Virgin"

I think fans of the show are gonna love it but like my "Legend of Zelda" parody people who aren't in the know might not enjoy it as much...

I'll try to do another one that's a bit more open to the public to enjoy

One of our new-ish writers jumped the gun (or maybe it was coincidental). Anyway, pretty good parody that fits the criteria for this round except for the posting date:

The submission window is open I presume.

Well, mine's submitted! All I'll say is is it's probably not the Madonna song you're expecting...nor will it be about the 80's toon you're expecting...
