Philip Sparkle & The Demon Rats

I Don’t Like Paper

For years, Philip Sparkle has been singing of his disdain for paper. With the release of his debut comedy album, At the Gay Bathhouse (2018), Señor Sparkle needed a music video for the first single. A collaboration between Philip Sparkle, Julie Rega and Sam Baumel (aka The Demon Rats) was born.

 

You’re a Loser, Donald Trump (Hallelujah Song Parody)

After the 2020 USA election, we could not help, but make a video about Donald Trump being a loser to the tune of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah.

The video has served as a cathartic release for audiences on NPR, attendees of the the Lambda Democrats of New York virtual holiday party as well as many of the most fabulous bots and trolls of YouTube.

 

What’s Q Got to Do with It (Tina Turner Parody Song)

In the wake of the Capitol Riots, we made a Tina Turner parody video to remind you how unreal it all is and to put the QAnon crazies in their place.

 

Now That’s What I Call 2020 (Be Best - Holiday Parody Songs)

Just in time for the holidays - to mark the ending of a truly ludicrous year - we released a medley mocking the interminable Now That’s What I Call… compilation albums of our youth.

Riffing on tunes by Britney Spears, Ludacris, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Sarah Vaughn featuring political friends and foes from Ivanka to Stacey Abrams & Mitch McConnell - all to benefit Fairfight.org, Rev. Raphael Warnock and John Ossoff in the January 2021 Senate Runoff election.
