Top 10 COVID-19 Parodies ■

Let’s face it - there hasn’t been much to smile about in recent weeks. Whether it’s the prospect of getting better acquainted with the four walls of your spare junk room you’ve had to hastily convert into an office, or spending most of your waking hours struggling to entertain the kids (after their iPad battery has drained), it’s safe to say that we could use a bit of Yiddishe humour in these troubled times. Or just any humour for that matter.

We’ve been trawling through the plethora of content out there and painstakingly hand-picked our top 10 (we hope non-offensive) parodies relating to the Coronavirus outbreak. While of course acknowledging that it’s pretty serious out there, we feel it’s also important to lighten the national mood, as it’s often these nuggets of humour which help carry people through these dark days.

Above all, these songs are witty ways to encourage people to stay at home and slow the spread of COVID-19. We also wanted to give a shout out to all those creative people who are clearly sitting around bored, solidly ignoring the list of household chores/washing/cleaning/fixing-the-downstairs-sink jobs that they’re going to get around to one day. Promise. Maybe.So just remember, if that awful shade of lilac wallpaper in your new “office” is giving you a migraine, or if your two year old wants you to play What’s The Time Mr Wolf for the billionth time, take a deep breath, count to ten, take some aspirin and enjoy our selection below…until your next interruption (we give it about 30 seconds).
