Best Comedy Songs - Come laugh your butt off with us!
Edit: if posting a link to a comedic act intimidates you or is something you are not interested in then please just post a link to your favorite comedy song....
Ok not sure if this would be following the right format for the threads here so I hope this doesn't get squashed, but I would like see a link to your best comedy song along with a link to your best stand up or comedy skit. What can I say? I like to laugh! *Also could I get someone to tell me what the rules are on songs and links that might contain foul language? Because some of the best comedic songs have some cursing throughout. Example: Mikey Avalon's 'My D!#K' Here's my first selection....and yes I know The Lonely Island will most likely dominate this thread. They have a lot of comedic material out there. Shy Ronnie! Shy Ronnie 2: Ronnie & Clyde (feat. Rihanna) - YouTube and here's my first comedic selection....this is Godfrey when he was funny...first time I saw this I could NOT stop laughing GODFREY Funny Comedian: Godfrey Best Ever!! - YouTube |

Some of the Weird Al parodies are a good laugh if you look those up...

*I* thought Godfrey's bit on Schwarzenegger was funny. And also when he talked about men looking like they are going to sneeze or vomit. Quote:
So here, slappyjenkins, are a comedy song and a stand-up comedian's act... and to try to make things more challenging, I looked for a pair that deal with a related topic. :cool: Weird Al Yankovic - "You're Pitiful" This song made me realize Weird Al actually sings quite well. It's a very good parody of "You're Beautiful." But what really makes me like the song is the picture he paints of the "pitiful" 42-year-old guy living at his parents' home and eating chips off his bare chest while playing Halo 2. I don't know, maybe this is just me...but I think that's a rather endearing image. :D And I think living with your parents is cool because it is so frugal. "Weird Al" Yankovic- "You're Pitiful" With Lyrics - YouTube And now for the comedian... Kevin Hart with his grown Little Man act, describing why he's "not a fighter." I think it really would be pitiful if someone were like this! "Now we can talk about it when we get in the car, and let's figure out why it happened and see what we can do to prevent it happening again." :) Kevin Hart - I'm Not a Fighter - YouTube |
Quote:
I've seen all of Kevin Hart's acts and he is one of the funniest comdiens out there. That particular set about 'not being a fighter' is very funny. The weird Al song was great. Thank you for the reply! |

Humor is interesting. I recall a college professor (of humor) saying that all humor involves one group of people laughing at someone and not in a kind way. He said that when we laugh at a joke, part of the cause of that laughter is relief that we aren't the one being laughed at. So when comedians target other people (or display characteristics that we don't like or want to admit in ourselves), we laugh as part of the release of tension at not being the target. Humor is only funny, though, when you aren't the one being laughed at. There's a huge difference between laughing "at" and laughing "with" someone. I feel that good comedians help us laugh with them and with ourselves about our human foibles. When comedians base their humor on mocking some group (which is common), I start to feel uncomfortable because I realize I'm laughing due to my own prejudices and stereotypes. Yet that's also the power of humor: it reveals what makes us uncomfortable and challenges our thinking while also exploiting it. I especially like comedy that is based on breaking expectations. For example, Kevin Hart half-shocks, half-amuses me because he says the exact opposite of what most people feel is admirable, appropriate behavior. He tests my comfort zones. And I thought Shy Ronnie was funny. I was amused by the idea of a shy person trying to do a stick-up. I especially liked it when he turned out to have a big, strong voice after all! Quote:
As for your question about whether it is okay to post songs with "bad" language, I don't think there is any rule against posting such songs. See, Tenacious D made it through! |
Oh hell yeah man, Tenacious D is cool, I just didn't want to flood the thread yet. Wanted to see if others would post. That was some classic Tenacious D! Very funny!
Vegangelica - I really appreciate your views on humor. And I am in complete agreement. I do also feel that, for me at least, comedy is a bridge between hating someone and loving someone. We can see a racists on the sidewalk say something very bad like 'Look at that N*** over there." And we realize that person is speaking from a place of pure hate. You can't love that person, you can't connect with that person, unless you are yourself are a racists and full of hate. But when you see a comedian making fun of people you get the feeling that person is speaking from a place of love and understanding and ACCEPTANCE. And that leads to a place of happiness and love. We all feel accepted for our race, creed, beliefs, and faults, ESPECIALLY if said comedian thinks enough of us to include us in their jokes. We see asians making fun of blacks and whites, and blacks making fun of whites and indians, (oh yeah whites are only allowed to make fun of other whites), and we laugh because it is the ultimate form of acceptance. I am of mixed heritage and when I see a black guy making fun of asians I laugh my ass off because I realize I could be that guy's best friend in real life. (My mother is flip and my dad is white)The comedian accepts my stereotyped faults so much that the doors to acceptance are open. Whenever I overhear someone in a restaurant say 'Oh look at this ***** over here.' Well I know the only possibility we have is hostility, be it verbally or physically. I feel that true sting of racism and ignorance and intolerance. Comedy breaks those barriers in the most healthy way I have ever seen. We are allowed to voice our non-PC thoughts and instead of killing each other we're laughing together and partying together and forming a connection where there was none before. I love comedy, and I love what it can accomplish. I do agree with 'laughing at' versus 'laughing with', but you have other forms of comedy such as slapstick or situational comedy and I believe that is just another form of acceptance. When we laugh so hard because someone took a prat-fall in such an obvious way, its our way of saying 'I see your comedy and I accept it and you, that was funny as hell.' Then you also have self-depricating humor that actually tricks you into transposing the humor onto yourself and you wind up laughing at something the joke reminds you that you did or experienced. One of those most memorable to me was Margaret Cho talking about going on some weird diet that made her **** her pants in traffic. The audience burst out laughing and so did I because its hard to admit yeah I got drunk or I ate some nasty ruined food, and I couldn't make it to the toilet and I am an adult and I **** mysef!...I'm not saying ME....it was a friend...a friend....and they didn't tell me it had peppers in it, and it messed with my...his stomach really bad.....but comedy allows that outlet. Anyway the reason I started the thread is there is a ton of COMEDIC songs out there. Their only purpose is to be funny, and often these songs do well on the charts. So I thought it would be fun to share. |
Basically anything by Flight of the Concords like "I'm Not Crying" and "Parttime Model". Comic gold. Most people should know who I'm talking about.

Afroman - Because I Got High - YouTube and this probably goes right along with that..... Katt Williams- weed - YouTube ...and this might be a reason why we need to keep an eye on what we alter our minds with.... I think happened earlier this year Katt Williams in Oakland - Breakdown - On Stage - YouTube This happened in 2008 Katt Williams Hospitalized - YouTube ...And he hates Mexicans.... Katt Williams Disses Mexican Man...Just Jokes? Or Too Far? - YouTube and takes back his apology KATT WILLIAMS SPEAKS ON CNN ABOUT MEXICAN RANT! - YouTube Crazy, crazy, crazy.....but funny! |

I like your view of comedy as being a form of acceptance of all people. The way humor often plays with the blurry line between cruelty and acceptance interests me especially. I see comedy as an important form of free speech that challenges us to be willing to go beyond our beliefs of what is socially acceptable. For example, a very good question for people to ask is why they may think whites are only allowed to make fun of other whites, like you mention. In a truly non-racist society, the ethnicity of the comedian shouldn't matter, should it? And yet humor viewed as "too" racist starts to make many people feel uncomfortable because they tend to believe that those who are in a position of power shouldn't be cruel to those who are perceived as having less (even though an individual white person shouldn't be viewed as representative of all white people or as having more power than any other person). Comedy is a great leveler, I think, and I like the way humor can draw people together, breaking through the ice that may separate us...reminding us, like Cho does, that we are all full of **** sometimes. :p: * * * I was searching for the name of a singer whose songs amuse me because they are usually not funny (which is part of the humor). Ah, here he is... Rob Potylo - "Hot Dogs and Applesauce" Rob's thing is he sings children's songs for adults--that is, songs that sound like children's songs but have adult themes: "Hot Dogs And Applesauce" with Rob Potylo and Vermin Supreme -Children's songs for adults - YouTube Oh what the hey, here's another Rob Potylo classic... Rob Potylo - "Condom On My Dreams" I especially like the wild "solo" with those little clackers... * * * And now, a comedy skit... One of my favorite comedy skits was Saturday Night Live's "The Spartan Cheerleaders" with Craig (Will Farrell) and Arianna (Oteri) playing unsanctioned cheerleaders who didn't make the real team yet cheer enthusiastically for every Spartan event anyway. I especially like the Chess Tournament skit where even the chess tournament leader Glen calls them freaks and losers. The Spartan Cheerleaders - "Chess Tournament" (#7 in this list of Will Farrell SNL skits): featuring "The Perfect Cheer" (ha ha!), which makes me laugh every time I see it...

I love the non-PC, ethnic, religious, and political humor, but I also love physical humor or something just plain acting silly. Here's another classic 'funny' song and I'm not even sure they meant this to be purely comedic The bloodhound gang had a way of making quality music that still came off as comedy based. Is 'Firewater Burn' worth a post here? Bloodhound Gang - The Bad Touch - YouTube |
vktr...great minds think alike!

Great posts guys, very funny!

I think the most public of these situations was a couple years ago with Michael Richards. He tried to make a comeback as a stand up comedian and had a melt down on stage. His poor comeback went down in flames so fast. Nobody but Jerry Seinfeld will even speak to him now. But that's the point where you realize 'Uh oh, I just stepped over that line!' This white guy gonna stand up there and shout 'He's a N*** everybody. Look at the N***!!!' Yeah white guy you just found the line and you just crossed it. But that was the point of that comment that 'white people can only make fun of other white people'. It was half sarcastic, but in some cases brutally true. If you are offended by the N-word don't look! Michael Richards Spews Racial Hate -- Kramer Racist Rant - YouTube Edit: After watching this sad video of a very talented comedian having a breakdown I suddenly realized. This wasn't comedy or even part of his set. He got mad that people were talking and went on an actual racists rant. Poor guy. But I side with the folks in the audience, that was completely uncalled for and not neccessary. He is an old man that's been in the business a long time, he should have been armed with a million mature alternatives to handle that situation. Edit: Damn I can't stop thinking about what you said. Because you are right, in a true non-racists society anyone could make jokes about anyone and everything would be cool. I guess that is the point. We are not in a true non-racist society right now. Which is obvious, everyone knows that. But I like to think we're moving toward that? |
Going on a very nonsensical route with this topic, here's Tenpole Tudor asking that musical question made famous in the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. |
^^OMG that was insane. Leave it to Screen to come up with a classic like this LOL
|
