Just wondering if there are any songs out there that creep you out, for various reasons. Some songs creep me out, so i'm gonna assume i'm not alone about this issue (even if I am, just smile and nod and play along). These are some songs that creep me out:
They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha Ha by Napoleon XIV
I like this song, but it freaked me out when I heard it for the first time. It's crazy charms eventually won me over.
Lady In Red by Chris DeBurgh
Synth pop always creeped me out, and I remember my mom would listen to this song all the time when i was little. Therefore this song may be responsible for everything that's wrong with me.
Steven by Alice Cooper
Scary child voice, freaky lyrics, loud shrill chorus. Need I say more?

Anything by Enya, they could take a song about garlic bread and make it sound creepy and sad. Actually, I think any song about garlic bread would be creepy and sad, no matter who sings it.

"Timothy" by The Buoys, that song about the miners trapped in a cave-in, two of whom end up eating the third. The song so controversial the artists eventually had to lie and claim Timothy was a mule. Voted one of the worst songs ever in Dave Barry's nationwide bad song survey. Ya gotta love those lyrics:
Trapped in a mine that had caved in
And everyone knows the only ones left
Were Joe and me and Tim
When they broke through to pull us free
The only ones left to tell the tale
Were Joe and me
Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?
Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?
Hungry as hell no food to eat
And Joe said that he would sell his soul
For just a piece of meat
Water enough to drink for two
And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig
And then there's some for you."
Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you
Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?
I must have blacked out just around then
'Cause the very next thing that I could see
Was the light of the day again
My stomach was full as it could be
And nobody ever got around
To finding Timothy
Timothy...
-D

I Don't Like Mondays by Boomtown Rats. I don't think it's that creepy, but it's another song based on a real life tragedy (no, not the Garfield movie). Introduced to me via Snopes: www.snopes.com/music/songs/mondays.asp

That's creepy. I knew it was a depressing song, but now I think it's even more of a downer.

The Trial by Pink Floyd. Agh! Scariest thing ever! Although I don't know if it's the song I find creepy or it's part in The Wall that's creepy, but I think the song alone is pretty scary.

I hate that cartoon sequence. I always fast-forward past it.

I hate that cartoon sequence. I always fast-forward past it. You cwazy! The cartoons are the best parts of the movie (besides the penis flower thing, that's just kind of more disturbing then the exploding dove) The whole movie should have been a cartoon. |

No WAY. The cartoon parts are creepy, and the whole sexual-flower thing just makes me gag. I like the live-action better. Especially when Pink is wrecking his hotel room. That part is bitchen.

I watched The Wall for the first time the other day, and I decided to come here just to mention "The Trial". But not only was I beaten to it, there was a bit of a discussion going on about it.
I sort of have a love-hate relationship with the Trial animation scene. It serves as a good climax, portrays the lyrics' message really well, and is just visually stunning. But it also is incredibly haunting (especially the "craaaaaazy...craaaaaazy" parts). The rest of the movie, both animation and live-action, was haunting, but the "The Trial" turns the haunting factor up to 11. The feeling the film left me with reminds me of how I felt after watching Requiem for a Dream.
Oh, and "Earth Died Screaming" by Tom Waits is creepy in a good way. The chorus is used really well in Twelve Monkeys.
