I found it (in the mid-2000s as a preteen) before I consciously learned about the original Bohemian Rhapsody, so every time I now hear the latter, my mind immediately goes "what happen, what happen, somebody set up us the bomb, somebody set up us the bomb".
I cant hear American Pie without it turning into Weird Al's The Saga Begins
49 times we fought that beast
Your old man and me
I used to riiiide across the deserts you know, I used to gliiiide on my speeder, pray that I dont fiiind.. what i don't wanna find
I think of these trilogy of songs often
This was the one I was coming to add. It gets stuck in my head for weeks.
Easy Mode: Amish Paradise
Hard Mode: Shia LaBeouf
Easy: Party in the CIA
Hard: I need a crit (Cantina Thirteen) a parody of simple plan"s I'm just a Kid
Seconded Party in the CIA!
The Bad Lip Sync version of Gotye (Kicked Your Monkey And I Used Your Goat) kinda always comes to mind
Maybe a stretch as it's not parodying a song but parodies Star Wars kinda sorta? Seagulls! (Stop it Now)
Lonely Island has a few (Jack Sparrow) comes to mind but again not a direct parody of a specific song.
Richard Cheese does straight up covers but they are so stylistically different that it's basically a parody. Chop Suey
Then there's the classic comedy music duos: Garfunkel & Oates (Loophole), Flight of the Conchords (Business Time)
Bo Burnham's whole Inside special is fantastic too.
Looks like I'm mostly listing comedy music and not necessarily parodies, but oh well.
Nanobot by A Capella Science. The whole channel is pretty good, but this song just shines above the pack. Shivers every time:

All the Bardcore covers by Hildegard Von Blingin are amazing.
That bardcore one is surprisingly good
Marge, is Lisa at Camp Granada?

I first visited London only a few months after this came out. It was stuck in my head the moment I got on the platform at Heathrow.
I cannot listen to The Jam without this playing in my head.
I saw 'The Jam' and clicked the link.
I'm ruined.
I just went on Youtube and watched the real song that was posted 15 years ago.
The comments are flooded with "RIP Rick Buckler" (drummer) from 15 days ago.
Now I'm ruined.
I had a friend who sung I Can’t Feel my Face when I’m with you, as I can’t feel my face when I Go POOP and that is all I will ever hear now.
I had a cousin who would sing to her kid to the tune of the CanCan song:
I've got something in my nappy, making me unhappy, tralalala la lalalalalala (repeat)
Love is A Battlefield literal video is hilarious to me.

Lmfao! So many good quotes
If you like that, here's the Total Eclipse of the Heart literal video, which I also find hilarious.

Union Dixie
Away down south in the land of traitors...
Hey it’s pat finnerty big up my dude
...Da Hoop Shredding Gigolo....
As an mtg player these parodies are referenced enough that I think of them instead of the originals:
I've played everything
Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar
Bo Burnham's Kanye Rant
https://youtu.be/rYy0o-J0x20
To the tune of the wanderer
"Well I'm the kinda guy who fucks his mom and dad"
Most of the early Minecraft parodies but Fallen Kingdom is probably pretty high up there
Hoop Shredding Gigolo (pictured above) : https://youtu.be/bpR0bULsl-0&t=787
This is Pat Finnerty's (accurate) take on writing a hit Offspring song.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ckSl1teci3E
Whilst I like the idea of it, I can barely hear the lyrics without the visual aid of the video
Zero Wing Rhapsody
I found it (in the mid-2000s as a preteen) before I consciously learned about the original Bohemian Rhapsody, so every time I now hear the latter, my mind immediately goes "what happen, what happen, somebody set up us the bomb, somebody set up us the bomb".
Getting strong 2007 newgrounds vibes
The Ghoul - He got the wrong foot amputated, parody of Come and Play by the Offspring
A weird mix of the Electric Slide and the Hustle. The two songs mix flawlessly into each other.
Easy Mode:
Definitely 2 of my favorite Weird Al songs that I don't really hear people ever talk about:
Don't Download This Song, and Virus Alert.
Hard Mode:
I don't listen to non-Weird Al parody songs anymore and haven't since late middle school to early highschool, so I got none in my head anymore.
Firm believer that Molecular Shape of You > Shape of You
That llama llama duck song
Its been getting stuck in my head once a month or so for the past 20 years.
Its not even very funny.
A random tiny soundcloud account that did a parody of All Star that's about the magical girls anime genre...now I want to find it again.
