1. It's called filking. I don't know where the term came from, but it's fairly common at geekfests like

comic and sci-fi conventions.

[Guava Jelly]

2. I guess i'm pretty filked up then.

:crazy:

[DarkTirade]

This is one of my favorate filks that I've found on the youtubes. :P

[Guava Jelly]

4. Thats really filked up!

I never go that far.
Normally I just perv up a lyric or two.

Run Around- Blues travelers
Why you wanna give me a reach(run)-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
:yoiks:

[Fire Walk With Me]

9. I'm either too weird at it or too blatantly sexual.

Which is true filk, neh?

Search the DU for "mohair over the painflow", a phonetic take on "Somewhere over the rainbow".

I once did the entire "Tiny Tunes" title lyrics, and can only remember:

"They're tiny, they're all a little nude-y, and in this cartoon-y, there'll be sex on your TV...The condom dispensors were emptied by the censors...Elmira's into pain."

[Guava Jelly]

10. You are nuts!

Are we related? :rofl: very creative

[Fire Walk With Me]

18. I may be misunderstanding your OP...

as I don't have the skill to do my own parodies. But here is hands-down my fave Weird Al song. Liked it before I even knew who it was, but I think it does rock in its own way, and the lyrics crack me up. I only hope the (eh) video doesn't distract from those aspects, but YouTube seems to be the only way to post songs, video and all.

Enjoy!

20. Yes. I love doing song parodies like that..

And I'm good at it too. Many of them are "dirty" (ie, unsuitable for DU, such as the one I did for "YMCA" many years ago). Others, I write about birds to sing to my bird.

Guns'N'Roses' "Paradise City" becomes "Parrotlet City." (My bird, Grace, is a parrotlet.)

Take me down
to the parrotlet city
where the birds are green
and oh so pretty,
Take me home


"Big Ten Inch Record"
...my wee four-inch...birdie
She's the parrotlet named Grace
the parrotlet named Grace.
I just love my wee four-inch
birdie whose name is Grace.

21. Sounds like fun!

Maybe I should give it a whirl someday :hide:

[Mad_Dem_X]

23. I used to all the time

My sister and I wrote one, to the tune of New Kids On The Block's "Hangin' Tough," called "Hang Yourself." I did one using Springsteen's "Dancin' In The Dark" - about a guy who didn't pay his electric bill. LOL
