OK, here goes:

5 points: MooRocca (#6) Breakin Up Is Hard On You
4 Points: Johnny D (#9) Bitch, Rovers Troubled Daughter
3 points: Luke (#2) Britney's Baby...
2 points: Charlie (#12) Beat It

The best way to do this is to repost the parody and include the authorization for comments.  I think this is what ChuckyG would tell you to do if you emailed him on this.  Just make sure you get the correct link posted here when you do.

5 Points to Kristof, who I seem to find myself voting for more and more often, for his hilarious "Battle Hymn of the Banana Republic." (#7)
4 Points for MooRocca, who is also on a roll, for her oh-so-true "Breaking Up is Hard On You" (#6)
3 points for Phil's ode to perverts, "Bare Celebrities" (#14)
2 points to my arch nemesis, Luke. While lightning may not strike twice (thanks to the union), you still get some points (#2)
1 point to MysteryGoat (hope I spelled that right) with "Biggy Size." (#11)

Great job to everybody. If I didn't give you any points this month, you're ugly and I don't like you  ;)

Is 'biggie size' a commonly-used phrase over there, or has it only sprouted up recently after the Macca's (Mickey D's) docco?
???
Nonetheless, I was entertained for an hour or so going through these bubbly beauties.

#7. Kristof's fruitful 'Battle Hymn of the Banana Republic'. 5 pts.
#10. Guy's psychomathic 'Binary Pi'. 4 pts.
#14. Phil's bare-all expose 'Bare Celebrities'. 3 pts.
#12. Charlie's masterful 'Beat It'. 2pts.
#4. Erwen's conjuctivitis remedy 'Bad Conjugation'. 1pt.
Brilliant work for your first parody, 'Erwen'!  ;)

Snaps for the rest, I had numerous snortlings throughout.

Edit: 'Banana Hymn' to 'Battle Hymn'.

I fail to believe there aren't any Wendys resturants down under there.

;D  ;D  ;D

As for "Biggie Size," it is a facet of Wendy's, a fast food chain founded in Ohio and featuring a creepy little red-headed girl as their slogan. Although I haven't eaten at Wendy's for literally a decade (which is pretty interesting, considering I've been alive for less than two decades), I seem to remember it being less greasy than McD's and the others.

There was a surplus of laughs and a shortage of tact; good ingredients for a round.
Here are my picks:

Mike Armstrong's Because You Drugged, Thugged, And Mugged Me

MooRocca's Breakin Up Is Hard On You

MysteryGoat's "Biggy Size"

Johnny D's _Bitch, Rover's Troubled Daughter_

Arwen's Bad Conjugation

sorry this is late... the army stinks sometimes

5 for MooRocca and really only because i once watched my mom's sweatin to the oldies video when i was little and that was the first time i ever heard this original so it's forver linked to me... so imagining richard simmons stepping and singing this was just too much for me.

4 for kristof
3 for johnny... probably suffered because i still can't get past "fridge odor troubled walter"
2 for Scathe and I didn't realize what this song was until I dled it to give yours a listen
and 1 for Guy for scratching his inner nerddom

5 points for Phil
4 points for Kristof
3 points for MooRocca
2 points for Jeff
1 point for Guy
