    funny, but a total ripoff of Rob Paravonian’s Pachelbel Rant.

    Brilliant!

    It’s good, but like Saridout said, Rob Paravonian did it first.

    Rob may have done it first. But just like you can make thousands of songs based on one chord progression, i think you can make more than one joke based on the same progression. and these guys hit on more songs, i would say

    this is in now way a ripoff it takes a so vague tactic, the same beat, not chords and they do it a different way and a different scheme. they’re awesome just nut up or shut up

    Emily missed Fall at Your Feet by Jesse Cook. Also No Woman No Cry by Bob Marley should be where S ex & Candy appears but an excellent list. My compliments.
