- Fangsinmybeard, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1Copy cats, simillarium and facsimile along with parody. Interesting.
- M724, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Originality isn't for everyone. Have one successful idea out and in time you'll have hundreds, if not thousands, of imitations.

- CorneliusStump, on 07/08/2008, -0/+5"The Fall (50,000 Fall Fans Can’t Be Wrong, 1994): Mark E. Smith, in typical self-deprecating fashion, loses two zeros from Elvis’ 50 million on this 2004 collection of “39 Golden Greats.”
50,000,000 - 2 zeros = 50,000? - xsecretfiles, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3pics are not loading for me :(
just that one on the preview ... - MaryCait, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1How are people feeling about sleeveface at this point?

- Nicksname1, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2Did anyone else just see that comment made by a user name kevinrosemurder? It was pretty ***** up. But when I clicked on the username to view his profile it was not there and when I reloaded the page the comment was removed. Man the Digg Admins are fast. Good Job keeping the riff-raff out.
- thebrinkman, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1A friend of mine, despite being a huge beatles fan, has not one shirt. Rather, he owns and wears every single simpsons/beatles spoof ever rendered on a cotton T-shirt.
- bmonet, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1No demon days and let it be?
Come on! - SilverSpoon, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Personally, my favorite is the parody that Kruder & Dorfmeister did.

- CrackyJSquirrel, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Dugg because its music and I love album art. Almost buried because the author has no HTML layout skills..
- inthe80s, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3I recommend checking out http://www.amiright.com/album-covers/ which has a much larger collection of parody covers
- explicitmemory, on 07/08/2008, -0/+0Has the number of parodies, but no comparison images.
Lengthy list though.
