I don't know about songs, but while running errands this morning, I scrolled through the Sirius radio advertisements that you hit while changing the bands on the 'free' radio.  Joel Osteen has a Sirius radio channel?!  Very creepy. 🤨

I was 15, sister 13 and brother 4. The whole family sang to this when it came on the radio.

I always was creeped out by this song about a guy dying in the ambulance after he was in a plane crash. He describes in detail how mangled and bloody his body was and how he fealt through the whole thing.

The song was based on a band member that was involved in a small plane crash and subsequentially died.

 

The band, Bloodrock, in my opinion was a solid rockband for its time, featuring John Nitzinger, one of my favorite guitarist.

Brilliant, but also deeply disturbing...

Sweet Caroline...

 

What's creepy about that song?  Lots of other words yes, but creepy?

 

I nominate:

"Every Breath You Take" -The Police.  Stalker.

"Run for Your Life" - The Beatles.  Abusive.

 

they're both so upbeat and cheerful until you listen to the lyrics

Neil Diamond said he wrote it about Caroline Kennedy, who was 11 years old at the time.

"What's Up?" (What's Going On) by 4 Non Blondes.

[Bill from NYC]

How about "Younger Girl" by the Critters? I think John Sebastian also recorded this.....

John Lennon’s heroin enhanced experimental track is quite creepy. Of course, once you spin it backwards, the creepy quotient goes up considerably.

 

”Turn me on, dead man, turn me on.”

So are these songs creepy for the way they are, or are they creepy because they were used from disturbing scenes in movies?

[SinceThe70s]

File this under it wasn't creepy when I first heard it and was under 16. Actually it sounded pretty damn good. Now it's creepy as hell.

One year back in the 80's for halloween we played this non stop out of my buddies moms front windows and handed out potatoes to any kiddies who walked up the walk. Dickish I know but no one was injured.
