I found it (in the mid-2000s as a preteen) before I consciously learned about the original Bohemian Rhapsody, so every time I now hear the latter, my mind immediately goes "what happen, what happen, somebody set up us the bomb, somebody set up us the bomb".
Getting strong 2007 newgrounds vibes

Maybe a stretch as it's not parodying a song but parodies Star Wars kinda sorta? Seagulls! (Stop it Now)
Lonely Island has a few (Jack Sparrow) comes to mind but again not a direct parody of a specific song.
Richard Cheese does straight up covers but they are so stylistically different that it's basically a parody. Chop Suey
Then there's the classic comedy music duos: Garfunkel & Oates (Loophole), Flight of the Conchords (Business Time)
Bo Burnham's whole Inside special is fantastic too.
Looks like I'm mostly listing comedy music and not necessarily parodies, but oh well.

If its parody songs specifically, then hard mode isn't possible for me
