Musicians/Funny: Difference between revisions

* 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].

I'm not saying she made him feel like a man [[Buffy-Speak|in the way that, you know, like when you feel like an icy-pole it means that you want an icy-pole]]<br />

She didn't make him want a man<br />

* '[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.

"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 [http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/i-am-an-educated-fish/ I Am An Educated Fish].

* 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]:

I'll stick an onion up your [[Sound Effect Bleep|(BLEEP)]] <br />

Hey, what are you doing? <br />

** Also sung by Len, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4ydivnfcno Hetarenaide Yo! Oniichan]. Specifically, at about the 1:57 mark: {{spoiler|"Come '''[[Sound Effect Bleep|(BLEEP)]]'''<ref>"inside me"</ref>, [[Ho Yay|Onii-chan]]! / Don't worry about the pregnancy." The [[This Trope Is Bleep|bleep]], coupled with the song being sung by a ''14-year-old boy who thinks he can get pregnant'', is what makes the line (if not the [[Intercourse with You|rest of the song]]) hilarious.}}

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64-dF5fSsxg This] parody fandub of SPICE!.

[[Twincest|WANNA BONE MY TWIN!]] }}

* From ''[[Beatmania IIDX]]'': [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bybkLlNbaaw GOLD RUSH]. Just...GOLD RUSH.

** Or better yet, the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fPAdN3B248 DDR] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RXNlz3PCHU edits], and their [[Narm Charm]]. Take your pick between "[[This Is Sparta|DDR! X! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!]]" and "MUSIC FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT!!"

* "Give Him A Flower" by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown. While it's more or less a song about turning the other cheek, the sheer ridiculousness in the way its sung - complete with ''Napoleon Dynamite''-styled music - makes you wanna roll on the floor and laugh.

* "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.

''[[Buffy-Speak|Angular banjos]] sound good to me'' }}

* "Dear Doctor" by [[The Rolling Stones]], especially the part where Mick Jagger reads a Dear John letter in a high pitched voice.

* We got this far without a mention of [[Johnny Cash|A Boy Named Sue]]?

* In [[King Crimson]]'s cover of "Heroes" by [[David Bowie]] (from the 2000 live album ''Heavy ConstruKction''), Adrian Belew changed the lyrics of the first line slightly:

** See also the ''Three of a Perfect Pair'' bonus track "The King Crimson Barber Shop."

* All of [[Florence and the Machine|''Kiss With A Fist''.]]

* Not exactly music, but [[Jim Steinman]]'s monologues "[http://www.neverlandhotel.dk/lyrics.php?no=46 Love and Death and an American Guitar]" and "[http://www.neverlandhotel.dk/lyrics.php?no=92 The Want Ad]" are both hilarious, particularly the ending of the former:

* "I've got no car and it's breaking my heart... but I've found a driver and that's a start!"

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PC0DKov8l9w&feature=related Satan's Ice Cream Truck] by [[Strapping Young Lad]]

* [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:

'''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:

'''All:''' [[Motor Mouth|I'mgonnagooutonthestreetanddoanything-]]<br />

'''Iggy:''' Oh, shit...<br />

'''All:''' Oh, shit! }}

* [[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:

''In my cosmic mind'' }}

 

* [[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:

"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.

** Not to mention "[[Boom Box]]," which has Julian Casablancas (lead singer for The Strokes). Just watch it. '''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yvEYKRF5IA EVERYONE WAS WEARING FINGERLESS GLOVES!]'''

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQlIhraqL7o I Just Had Sex]. While sex ''is'' indeed quite awesome, this video [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|takes it to absurd levels]].

She put a bag on my head! (Still counts!) }}

** Jack Black doing [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzEzk0G0tao Sax Man]. "He'll be right with you folks!"

* The video to Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" has pirates slapping each other.

* The 'Literal Video Version' of Bonnie Tyler's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj-x9ygQEGA Total Eclipse of the Heart].

Blind posseeeeessed choiiiiir booooys! }}

* 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.

* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AKoC30vZOw&feature=channel video] for Conquest by [[The White Stripes]], especially the bull's CGI puppy-dog eyes.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRmYfVCH2UA Alanis Morissette's version] of 'My Humps' by the [[Black Eyed Peas]]. Especially at:

* If you think [[Pink Floyd]] is all serious and glum, look at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKN0-BC9PPg this video] they shot for "Corporal Clegg".

* At the end of [[ABBA]]'s video for "Take a Chance on Me", when Frida strides off the stage, and Benny hops off his chair and goes scuttling after her.
