* Does no one here know about Alkan? His Funeral March on the Death of a Parrot is hilarious.
* [[Allan Sherman]]'s "[[Peter And The Commissar]]" turns "[[Peter and The Wolf]]" into an allegory for creativity versus the incompetence of the music industry. It also features Beethoven's 5th as a cha-cha-cha and Brahms' Lullaby as a rock-and-roll song, amongst other brilliant bits.
* Listen to the second movement of Haydn's "Surprise Symphony" (#94) with the volume way up and tell me it doesn't repeatedly [[Jump Scare]] you into laughter.

Line 72:
* Tripod's song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt0hml2j43E Ghost Ship], which has them interrupting the song to suggest ways that it could be made better.
** They fall to sqabbling again in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJ2yPRHdVi8 Maryanne].

* The song "Oasis" from the lovely and talented Miss [[Amanda Palmer]].
* [[Linkin Park]], as a part of their ''Linkin Park Underground'' E.P. series devoted volume 8 to just goofing around. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZn3cqi4biI&feature=related it] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuJg9d6lN6A&feature=related was] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TANMgY_3De0 funnier] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuZBFpslygU&feature=related than it] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs-OrztP9IE sounds].
* Zac Brown Band has [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUt0AUDfHvo Sic 'em on a Chicken.] The entire song counts, but the last verse where they kill it with a frying pan is just hilarious!
* This troper is rather surprised nobody's said anything about [["Weird Al" Yankovic]] yet. "Albequerque" is the funniest song this troper has ever heard, but it's Crowning Moment Of Funny is found in its three-word summary at the end: "''I - HATE - SAUERKRAUT!!!''"
* [[Dolly Parton]] sometimes performs her song "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind", only imitating a vinyl record being played at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUPVB6uYh8I& too high a speed].
* '[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7MuwPlOiNQ Are you F*cking Kidding Me?]' by Kate Miller-Heidke
* No amount of [[Never Live It Down|douchebaggery]] from [[Kanye West]] will make his "Broke Phi Broke" skits any less hilarious.
{{quote|
"Do you remember all those Christmases when your Mama walked in the room and pretended she was the tree, huh? Remember that?" }}
* ''[[Songs to Wear Pants To]]'' is 75% full of songs that are crowning moments of funny, one in particular being [https://web.archive.org/web/20130514113856/http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/i-am-an-educated-fish/ "I Am An Educated Fish"].
* Pretty much anything by Wesley Willis applies, but his funniest is "My Keyboard got Damaged" where he talks about getting ejected from a plane for cursing. The way he says "SUDDENLY, I YELLED FUCK YOU ON THE AIRPLANE" makes me laugh every time I listen to it.
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik4trQ8UttE Don't Hate Me (Because I'm Beautful)]" by Nerf Herder. Actually, quite a fair bit of their songs could qualify as well.
* The ''[[

** Along with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEHtTMigQ9U&feature=related this] metal cover of You Spin Me Round, by the same group, set to the music video.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LecGuQE6t44 I Had a Shoggoth]. That is all.
Line 98:
* Most who've heard of [[The Frantics]] would probably say "Ti Kwan Leep/Boot to the Head" is their CMoF. [[Sensei Le Roof|This troper]] is forced to disagree. If you can listen to "A Piece of Pie" without ever laughing, you are a fiend and you have no soul and I am coming for your children.
* [[Vocaloid|Kagamine]] [[Cute Shotaro Boy|Len]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_2K2d91Im0 no Bousou]:

* "Preview" by Built To Spill, the final track of their album ''There's Nothing Wrong With Love''. It claims to be [["On the Next..."|"A preview of the next Built To Spill record"]], but is actually a collage of style parody snippets (of [[Hardcore Punk]], noise rock, [[Emo]] / [[Pop Punk]], and [[Power Ballad|power ballads]]). The hardcore section is particularly funny, as the only lyrics are [[Department of Redundancy Department|"Kick you in the head, and then I'll kick you in the head, and then I'll kick you in the head, and then I'll kick you in the head"]].
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaNt5S9pibQ Aja]" by [[Steely Dan]], a song about people embracing Asian culture without actually knowing anything about it.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRXdTsMbqC8 "Big Booty Bitches"]. That is all.
* Like Built To Spill's "Preview", Self's "LA Radio" is also a bunch of snippets parodying different music genres strung together, this time edited to sound like someone flipping through a radio dial. The style parodies are entertaining enough, but the funniest moment might be a bit where someone calls a radio station to request Self:
{{quote|
'''Caller:''' Yeah, can you play some Self?
'''DJ:''' Excuse me, ''who''?
'''Caller:''' Some Self, um... Self?
'''DJ:''' Alright kid, you got it, here's some Seal on Hits 106.9! }}
* Christian heavy rock group Thousand Foot Krutch doing a metal take on... [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlg5KuFSGGc "Jingle Bell Rock".] It's equal parts hilarious and downright badass.
* [[Iggy Pop]]'s "Success" has his whole backing band and producer [[David Bowie]] joining in on backing vocals, which basically repeat every lyric of the song. They keep repeating everything once Iggy starts going off on ad-libs near the end, so he decides to try to trip them up:
{{quote|
'''All:''' I'm gonna do the twist!
'''Iggy:''' I'm gonna hop like a frog!
'''All:''' I'm gonna hop like a frog!

* [[Yes]] shows a rare glimpse of humor on the title to track to 1977's ''Going for the One'', care of mystically minded [[Cloudcuckoolander]] singer/lyricist Jon Anderson:

** [[Older Than You Think]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzqGQkLMo9o evidence].
* Kelly Clarkson did not want to release "Already Gone" as a single, due to the fact that it was basically Beyonce's "Halo" with the [[Serial Numbers Filed Off]]. [[Executive Meddling|19 Entertainment felt otherwise.]] So, while performing the song at one of her concerts, to get back at her record company and the writer of both songs, she did [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdPf8sYEHAA&feature=player_embedded this (wait until the 3:32 mark).]
* [[Short Stack]]: "We are confident enough in our sexuality to do a [[Kylie Minogue]] song!" They then proceeded to sing "Can't Get You Out Of My Head".
* In a live performance of "Fake" (possibly one of the most beautiful unrequited love songs ever written), the Frames' lead singer Glen Hansard decided to shake the song up a little. Between each half of each verse is an instrumental crescendo. During the crescendo in the second verse, he ad-libbed some new lyrics:
{{quote|"I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one." }}▼
▲"I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one." }}
* Any time Chibi of [[The Birthday Massacre]] gives an interview, but especially the time when she tried to coerce the interviewer into taking up knitting.
* Go to the bottom on the [[Emilie Autumn]] page. Click the links. Yes, all of them.
* An [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB9pnFHqQ8c entirely unintentional moment] courtesy of Visual Kei/Goth Rock/Whatever band [[Malice Mizer]], along with some very much [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfV7P-gdtlE intentional rubbish] from their fanclub event.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfamTmY5REw Ben Folds playing Chatroulette at a concert]. Can double (triple?) as a [[Crowning Music of Awesome]] and a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]].
* During his 30th Aniversary concert, Michael Jackson performed "You Rock My World" and Usher first comes out, leading to a small dance/robot battle. Then Chris Tucker, who had appeared in the music video of the song, comes out and starts to dance. Michael begins to crack up as Chris mimiced several of Michael's dance moves. Michael then did his kick-move, which Chris did, but with the wrong leg (relating to a joke Chris told earlier in the concert about Michael telling him he was "Kicking with the wrong leg" in Rush Hour 2, where Chris sang "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough") which causes Michael to do a literal ROFL.

* Sara Bareilles sang a song that was called something like "You're an asshole" at a concert. People were given lyrics.
* Ella Fitzgerald performs "Mack the Knife" on the live album ''Ella in Berlin.'' She forgets the lyrics halfway through: "''What's the next chorus to this song now?/This is the one now I don't know.''" But Ella improvises some new lyrics and pokes fun at her flub: "''Now Ella and the fellas/We're making a wreck, what a wreck of Mack the Knife.''" This doubles as a Funny Moment and an Awesome Moment.

* Similar to Nirvana and Iron Maiden, Muse also like to ham it up and switch instruments when forced to lip sync by a show. An appearance on a Spanish television show featured vocalist Matt Bellamy drumming like a [[Guitar Hero]] drummer with a cheesy smile on his face, and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXhEUPcLSCI another one] included him miming a synthesizer part by wildly waving his hands around several inches ''above'' the keyboard.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OyiHQmy3FU "Hellglass"], a skit filmed to serve as an extra on a live Self DVD. What purports to be a look behind the scenes in the recording studio is actually a [[Spinal Tap]]-esque self parody, with Matt Mahaffey generally acting like a [[Cloudcuckoolander]], then revealing a [[Word Salad Lyrics|very deep]] new song called "Hellglass", much to the disgust of his producer.
