2020/01 Parodudes: Bartholomew / Apologetics

Bartholomew: Bark at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne

You know the Apostles truly believed their hero was more than a miracle man the authorities had conspired to crucify. They were fearless in proclaiming the story of HIs resurrection and refused to let it die. Even when men like Bartholomew were skinned alive, they never recanted. The church Jesus founded was not going away.

Apologetics: Come and Get It - Badfinger

We spent years flying around the country with a suitcase full of spoofs. Though we've gotten airplay on airwaves all over the world, we've never made a lot of money, but that's not the name of the game. No matter what people think about our parodies, we love the Bible, and we take it all seriously; we just don't take ourselves too seriously.

ApologetiX / Alien Invasion

Our 58th CD, Alien Invasion, was released in March 2020. It features 12 parodies from the 60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's.

2017/09 Parodudes: You're Mad at What? / Pick It Up

You're Mad at What?: No Matter What - Badfinger

We'll tell you straight up: there's no magic Christian formula for living a sinless life. That doesn't mean we shouldn't give it a try, but we won't reach perfection till it's over. In the meantime, seek God's guidance and forgiveness day after day, hold on to 1 Corinthians 1:8 and Philippians 1:6, and carry on till tomorrow. Better days await.

Pick It Up: Lick It Up - KISS

The Bible was given to us freely by God, and it'll give you a reason to live and show you how to live forever, but you have to take it off the shelf. The Word of God is alive, written not for the innocent only but for saint and sinner alike, and if you read it, it'll come back to you later like a boomerang. Get all you can take before they take it away from us.

ApologetiX / Xit Ego Lopa
Our 50th CD, Xit Ego Lopa, was released in December 2017. It features 13 parodies from the 60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's.

[Parody] The Silver Pygmees - Come and Get It (2020)

The Silver Pygmees - Come and Get It (2020)

Written by Paul McCartney and featured by Badfinger. He Actually wrote this song with the Silver Pygmees in mind. This is the demo recording put together by Apple Records of us in late 1968. We were all ready for a 1969 release when Paul somehow got the idea that Larry had put the moves on his wife. Paul pulled the song and just gave it away to Badfinger! Was our worst day of the 1960's and Badfingers Best day!
