parody

This Gotye parody might finally be the Gotye parody to put all other Gotye parodies to rest (please?). Comedian Eric Schwartz wrote this version of "Somebody That I Used to Know" as meta-homage to his once-favorite single, now bludgeoned to death by covers, parodies, and endless radio replays.

Watch out for the shout-outs to prior versions, including the Star Wars parody, the five-people-playing-one-guitar cover, and a Jewish rendition.

It's a sentiment everyone shares, but by making this version, aren't you just becoming part of the problem?

PARENTAL ADVISORY: Explicit lyrics.

What if Lana Del Rey's "Video Games" was actually about video games? According to this parody, it would reveal a torrid love triangle between Mario, Princess Peach, and Luigi.

Caution: Video Contains Adult Language

Tenacious D took an already-ridiculous TIME Magazine cover and flipped it from bizarre to pvre rock fvry.

A politricks-themed parody spontaneously recasts the original Hot Problems into a song about the Bush daughters circa 2001.

Cookie Monster parodies Icona Pop's "I Love It"

I'd be embarrassed to go to that school.

It's tough being a Hufflepuff. They're not courageous like those in Gryffindor, not smart like those in Ravenclaw, and they can't even aspire to be evil masterminds like members of Slytherin. They're just vaguely friendly and won't douche out on you. This parody of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" tries to put some pride back into the most overlooked house.

Why wait for others to parody you when you can tap talent to do it for you. Mumford and Sons takes itself oh-so-unseriously and casts the likes of Jason Batemen, Ed Helms, Jason Sudeikis and Will Forte to create a humorous music video for their latest single "Hopeless Wanderer"

A fairly self-explanatory parody. Lots of love for the original series, but it'd be nice to see a TNG version, or even DS9 and Voyager. Also, WHY ISN'T THE SECOND STAR TREK MOVIE OUT YET?
