i came across this
while researching song parodies and wondered if you have a favorite song parodies
Hmmm, there's a lot of funny ones - off the top of my head, I'd say Eat It - Weird Al's version of MJ's Beat It.
There is (was?) a fantastic British band called the Barron Knights (a parody on barren nights) who did great parodies. Some examples (Rivers of Babylon) There's a dentist in Birmingham, he fixed my crown. (Space Oddity) Birth control to ginger tom. Take a look on YouTube
From Wikipedia, the Barron Nights are still going, though not much left of the original members, have a look :-
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Barron_Knights I saw them live a couple of times way back in the late 1960's and early 1970's
I love Da Vinci's Notebook a cappella take on the misheard lyric with
Secret Asian Man .
LOL! That was too funny John. And great a cappella too.
I enjoyed the music of "The Rutles", they certainly captured the sounds and stylings of "The Beatles". And some hilarious humour.
