Parody songs

Latest revision as of 20:23, 10 November 2015

Over the years, a number of parody songs have been written my members.

They usually take the format of alternative lyrics for well known songs, often acompanied by a youtube video of the original. Occasionally, they have been presented in graphic format with images to illustrate each line.

In addition to the songs that have their own thread, there is also a topic for general songs, here
