** Mixed with another meme/NightmareFuel quite nicely here: http://www. . /watch?v=J3sgSfgILZ8

* [[http://www. . /watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA&feature=video_response "Chocolate Rain"]], a song with cryptic lyrics about , with the phrase "Chocolate Rain" comprising ''every other line'' and music that boils down to the same four-line stanza repeated over...and over...and over...
** [[http://www.screwattack.com ScrewAttack]] once parodied this in their -Ass Game of the Year awards to explain just [[SoBadItsHorrible how bad]] ''Vampire Rain'' really was.

**** Don't forget: Tay Zonday turns into an absolute pimp in ''[[http://www. . /watch?v=2x2W12A8Qow Cherry Chocolate Rain]]'', parodying himself and... just being a pimp. No, really. See the video.

* Kevin Federline's [[http://www. . /watch?v=laynXVsBulg&feature=related "Popozao"]] instantly became the subject of much ridicule due to its silly title (supposedly Brazilian slang for "big ol' butt", according to K-Fed) and odd lyrics, despite never being released as a single. It was parodied quite a bit by Joel [=McHale=] on ''TheSoup''.

** And let's not forget [[http://www. . /watch?v=p4-8jn7bjJo the]] [[http://www. . /watch?v=qF9HTkD1m0w gag]] [[http://www. . /watch?v=f6MF5B3lass dubs]] swapping Popozao for various other musical memes.

** When you combine "[[CrowningMusicOfAwesome Dragostea Din Tei]]" with EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs, you get [[http://www. . /watch?v=-lcpWqMa0-U this]].
** The meme was even more of a hit in Latin America and Spain because of the Spanish GagDub version by Los Morancos. [[http://www. . /watch?v=9_c6yonEmRs Fiesta fiesta y pluma pluma , pluma pluma , PLUMA PLUMA PLUMA !]]
** Likewise, in Brazil, a raunchy Portuguese version, "[[http://www. . /watch?v=vr5ZhpAvH1Q Festa no Apê]]" (party in my apartment).

* Not a meme from a song, but from an artist: Shortly after the 7 July 2005 ings in London, a story made the rounds that R&B singer Omarion was performing there and had been caught up in the chaos, and asked for his fans to pray for him. This story was proven false (he ''was'' in London at the time, but "he wasn't hurt or anything"), and "Pray for Omarion" quickly became a running joke on Fark.com, as it reminded many of [[TheSimpsons Helen Lovejoy's]] "Won't someone ''please'' [[YouCanPanicNow think of the children]]?"

** In Finland the equivelent joke is "Soittakaa Paranoid!" ("Play paranoid!", requesting the song by Black Sabbath), first orginated as a joke by an reporter for a local music magazine, since then spiraled out of control. At least two notable bands have also recorded songs called "Paranoid" to have something to play if someone the joke.
