I'd say it depends on the parody. Weird Al seems to do them in at least a respectful manner to the original, though that's just my view...I'm more comparing that to other parodies I've seen which are more of a "I'm going to completely make fun of this" kind. I'd say if I don't like the original song, a parody of the song might be good to me.

On the other hand I don't listen to songs that much and sometimes I hear a parody song and have no idea there was an original one. So I may not be the best person to voice my opinion on this :3
