This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Weird Al should agree
It's all a parody
someone could have made every song we played
what if you don't like lines the band rewrites
what else do you need?
......our appologies?
but if our songs get someone to see the Son
is it wrong? is it wrong?
really? really?
writing music that's new is easier to do
but that's not the goal
let me save some souls
i change all the names
i can see no shame
then someone to me will turn (and say)
don't you guys do anything original?
but if our songs get the word to sing along
is it wrong? is it wrong?
dare we?
yeah we really feel we can
i know it's alright

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
THIS SONG RULZ!!!!!!!!!
Actually, Parody was ruled as fair use of a copyright by the supreme court (thanks to lawsuit filed by 2 Live Crew). It is no longer necessary to get permission from yhe original artists to parody their songs. Also, as one who has been friends with the Apologetix since 1992, I can say the guys in the band are true musicians who have great respect for the talent of the artists they cover.
To me, this song doesn't rule in any way. In fact, the band that wrote these lyrics only deserve a swift kick in the head. Why? Simple. Kurt Cobain is dead and can't defend himself or his song (the actual song, titled "All Apologies", is ten times better). I'm surprised that the surviving members of Nirvana actually allowed this crap to happen. There are better ways of ministering to people than rewriting lyrics to songs, good songs. My advice to Apologetix: Write your own music and quit stealing from bands that actually did well due to their originality.

hey, it's just a parody...why not rip on weird al for redoing smells like teen spirit? it's not a big deal, it's just a fun song!
When weird al makes a song he always has permission from the artists. The apologetix take songs without permission. Its rather immoral. What a great Christian band.
