We’ve already brought you one round-up of social songs, a great selection of Facebook songs and some Twitter ditties, but now we’re back with more topical tunes.
Within this new list you’ll find spoofs, parodies, comical raps and even some earnest love songs all themed around social networking, the online world, and the companies within it.
So, clear your throat, get your air guitar sound checked, and get your drumstick pencils ready, then go singalong through the video gallery below and let us know your favorite social songs in the comments…
1. A Social Network for Two: A Modern Love Song
Who wouldn't want to be serenaded with this short and sweet ditty from Zefrank?
2. My Mom's on Facebook
Blood of TigerCat adds some metal, and a considerable amount of hair, to the question we've all had to ask ourselves -- should I accept my mom's friend request on Facebook?
3. Welcome To YouTube
Comedic singer-songwriter Bo Burnham turns his satirical sights to the YouTube platform, managing to rhyme "frolic" with "alcoholic" which we'd guess must be some kind of first.
8. The New Dork - Entrepreneur State of Mind
We're big fans of this spoof song -- and that's not just because of the Mashable name-check.
5. I Follow You
This slightly bittersweet tune will ring true with any one who has had a special friend -- on the other side of the world.
7. LOLcats Song
Made with "many many apologies to The Cure" LOLcats get their own theme tune. Or theme out-of-tune might be more accurate.
9. Web Site Story
CollegeHumor gives West Side Story (itself based on Romeo and Juliet) a Web 2.0 makeover in this social song. (Unfortunately, embedding has been disabled for this video, so you'll have to click through to watch.)
4. The Foursquare Rap - Badges Like Us
The location-based social networking service du jour gets the rap treatment with the valuable advice -- don't check in to your house. That's just lame. Word.
10. Everybody Tweet
We think is a parody, but we're not entirely certain that it's not serious. Please let it be a parody...
6. Chatroulette Song (Slightly NSFW)
The always amusing Jon Lajoie manages to capture the entire essence of Chatroulette in one catchy little song.
NSFW BONUS: Sit on My Facebook (Internet Love Song)
The Scribes and the Pantless Knights teamed up for this hilarious but definitely NSFW track which brings all kinds of sexual innuendos to the social space. Again, not something to be watching at work.
