Parody
I love music. And I love parody songs. Sometimes I hear the parody songs first and then discover the ones they’re based on – because I rarely listen to the radio a lot of new songs seem to pass me by for a while lately.
At the moment I’m particularly enjoying this parody of All About That Bass by Meghan Trainor – All About That Change. It’s especially cool because it’s a parody that Meghan Trainor sings herself (along with James Corden who I’ve never really seen much of). Apt for this time of year and it made me laugh.
But if I’m honest the number one parody song is always going to be All About That Chair by Heather Schouten. I love it. And sometimes I struggle not to sing those lyrics when I hear the regular version.

I love parodies, too – I hadn’t seen either of these, yet, either, so thanks! Have you seen the “All About that Base (No Rebels)” Star Wars version?
I’m also a fan of Weird Al and Tom Lehrer.

I’ve been a Tom Lehrer fan since way back when. BIG fan of good parodies. I may actually look up the original song now. Thanks! 😀
