The talk of Frozen in the Kids favourite songs thread reminded me of this. It's the coolest dad ever, doing a parody of of a song from Frozen.

Pretty much anything from MAD magazine.
I have the board game.
All things MAD remind me of my brother. He loved the magazine....and wasn't there a tv show for a while?
Here's another one I love.
I need to check out other clips from Hillywood Show.

Yeah, there was MADtv (which got cancelled) and now there is a show on Cartoon Network.
What Dio said - love the Mel Brooks parodies. History of the World too.
When I think of parodies, I always think of Carol Burnett. I loved her show when I was a kid in the 70s, and though I didn't understand those parodies when I was 7, 8, 9... they were hysterical, and when I got old enough to know, it was even better.

Mel Brooks, when he's on, and he was definitely on for Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. My kids love Spaceballs.
I haven't picked up a MAD magazine for several decades now, but I'd always look forward to that time of the month when Dad brought home the new one. "Hello, Lyndon, "Star Blech," and others were delightful. I can still remember their parodies of the military branches' songs, like the Marine Corps Hymn (from memory now - be forgiving):
From the neck-high mud of foxholes
To malaria-filled bogs
We will march for 90 miles a day
And drop out and die like dogs
We will land on mine-strewn beaches
And we'll live with snakes and fleas
Then we'll all leave Parris Island for
Restful combat overseas
And Weird Al is certainly a current standard for parody:
