parodies

I love it when I see a new video from The Key of Awesome in my Youtube subscription.

I am a huge fan of the Key of Awesome and have posted quite a few of their videos right here on the website. They do such a great job parodying songs such as Ke$ha, Lady Gaga, One Direction and more. One of the shinning parodies that they do is Pitbull.

What better way to celebrate landing on Mars than with a Parody of LMFAO's 'Sexy and I know it'? This crew took that great achievement and put it into song, 'We're NASA and We Know it'. It's clever, it's kind of funny and most of all super nerdy which is awesome!

I love the movie 'Taken'. Liam Neeson is a bad a** dad that will do anything to get his daughter back, and in 'Taken 2' he does it all again to get his wife! But lets be honest, as cool of a dad that he is, it's not very realistic. This video on the other hand is probably as close to "real life" as possible.

Screen Team is a duo that creates weekly vlogs on You Tube and a whole bunch of skits and parodies, providing hours of entertainment for those of the geek persuasion (such as myself). Check out this parody montage they made of 2011 pop hits, re-imagined as Christmas tunes. Everything from Pitbull, to Katy Perry. Justin Bieber to Rihanna. LMFAO, Gym Class Heroes, Bruno Mars and more.

Every once in a while a song comes along and you think to yourself, I hope somebody parodies that song. Well, we all know Weird Al is pretty good at doing that, but what about the unsung heroes of YouTube? The people that spend hours working on genuinely funny lyrics that make sense and actually go with the song?
