If they mention the Queen dying (in this one, truthfully I haven't listened to it in full without stopping and laughing), it was probably a different version.
I its a different version. I think they “wrote it” themselves it wasn’t meant to be like the parody. I went back to listen to the 2020 version by a comedian named Dylan White. It’s different.
This is a random nitpick but it seems they wrote down a bunch of things and sorted it out randomly. It’s not in any order. You go from Pokémon to impeachment to Kanye and Taylor to columbine.
Dylan white version it’s like line by line in chronological order. That’s much more satisfying than jumping back and forth.
Yeah I'm not even a Rock Purist or whatever but it flipping back and forth is jarring. I can understand if the rhyme just HAD to happen and things maybe a month apart were switched, but not this.
Yeah, the point of Billy Joel's song wasn't about pop culture impact but was about WHAT THE SHIT IS GOING ON IN THIS FUCKING CRAZY WORLD?! and we gotta do our best to fight it! And here comes FOB singing the fuck about Taylor Swift and Spielberg? Whu huh? They did not understand the assignment.

They also seem to lean a little more heavily on pop culture than things of big historical impact.
