Line 55:
* [[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.
* "[
* The Portsmouth Sinfonia's ''entire'' output. ''All'' of it. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uOpk8NwFL8 Also Sprach Zarathustra], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asYwFnm6X7I Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLsFGgfvx8o The William Tell Overture]...
Line 127:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZlFBSRrSR0 Der Fuhrer's Face], the funniest song about [[Adolf Hitler]] you will ever hear.
* The "Four Chord Song" by Axis of Awesome, especially the guy with the guitar [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pidokakU4I\] Overlaps with [[Awesome Moments]] as it proves a very good point about pop music
* "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.
