Barnie.. I love you You love me were a.... Ya know the rest...

Someone finally posted about a song that is *actually* creepy.

:thumbsup:

rudimentary peni - it is just wierd and disturbing

Barry Adamson has quite a lot of creepy stuff on his records.

Both "As Above, So Below", and "Oedipus Schmoedipus" has tracks were lyrics and music melts into something truly disturbing.

All the songs about incest or murder are well and good, but one simple song that creeps me out more than anything is "What a shame mary jane" by the Beatles + Sid Barrett. It's a good song but I can't stand to listen to it. That wail at the end..


.. One song has all of these beat though, and that is Avril's cover of Chop Suey ..

what is that song thats like "DO YOU WANT TO DIE, DO YOU WANT TO BE, MY ANGEL!!!"

that shits pretty creepy

-alec

VAST, "Pretty When You Cry"

Violent Femme's "Country Death Song"

The narrator in the song lures his young daughter to a well and then throws her in. ...then hangs himself in shame. Gordan Gano's creepy voice makes it extra strange.

Some of the creepiest songs do not sound that way at all. 'Luka' by Suzanne Vega is pretty screwed up and it was a big radio song. It didn't bother me so much until I had kids of my own.

Other stuff like that evades me at the moment...

Creepiest I can think of now is "Budda for Mary" by 30 seconds to Mars. The actual lyrics near the end is kinda off setting.

eminem's "kim"....it grows on you though :-\

Try driving along an unlit road at midnight with NIN' s"Eraser" cranked up. Just the intro can make the hair on the back of you rneck stand up.

Fucked by a Knife - Cannibal Corpse

most disgusting song i've ever heard

THE WIGGLES I HAVE CHILD AND THAT GROUP IS DISTURBING TO ME!!!

I don't know if anyone's heard of Wumpscut. He is creepy as hell. In his album Embryodead the last track comes after a couple of minutes of silence and its supposed to be the voice of a fetus complaining about his mother giving birth to him. There's also a lot of songs about rape and murder, but that embryodead song just gives me the chills when i listen to it

"We are the World" Various Artists

the music in afi's halloween is kinda creepy, same with fall children.

definately.

Videodrone - COB, seriously fucked up song.

I'll toss in another vote for Disturbed : Down with the Sickness.

And I'll raise by Nirvana's Rape Me.

And finally, the SpongeBob SquarePants theme song.
spooky.

agreed

FUCKED WITH A KNIFE
.
No Escape From Your Fate
Destined To Be Mine
Every Night I Wait To See
In The Dark, Watching
Stalking Your Every Move
I Know When You're All Alone
All Alone
.
Tied Tight To The Bed
Legs Spread Open
Bruised Flesh, Lacerations
Skin Stained With Blood
I'm The Only One You Love
I Feel Her Heart Beating
My Knife Deep Inside
Her Crotch Is Bleeding
.
She Liked The Way It Felt Inside Her
Fucking Her Harder, Harder
.
She Liked The Way It Felt Inside Her
Fucking Her Harder, Harder
.
Stick It In
Rip The Skin
Carve And Twist
Torn Flesh
..
From Behind
I Cut Her Crotch
In Her Ass
I Stuck My Cock
Killing As I Cum

Colourblind--Counting Crows. The first time I ever paid attention to that song was when I saw them live, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's the creepy song towards the end of Cruel Intentions. The music is just haunting...in a very beautiful way.

I also second "Down with the sickness" and almost all of Eminem's stuff.

From "The Final Cut" by Pink Floyd

"Two suns in the sunset"

In my rear view mirror the sun is going down
sinking behind bridges in the road
and I think of all the good things
that we have left undone
and I suffer premonitions
confirm suspicions
of the holocaust to come

the wire that holds the cork
that keeps the anger in
gives way
and suddenly it's day again
the sun is in the east
even though the day is done
two suns in the sunset
hmmmmmmmmm
could be the human race is run

like the moment when the brakes lock
and you slide towards the big truck
you stretch the frozen moments with your fear
and you'll never hear their voices
and you'll never see their faces
you have no recourse to the law anymore

and as the windshield melts
my tears evaporate
leaving only charcoal to defend
finally I understand
the feelings of the few
ashes and diamonds
foe and friend
we were all equal in the end

That's by The Toadies and the song is "Possum Kingdom". Brilliant song from a brilliant band. And yeah it's pretty creepy, but listen to "Tyler" from the same band, now that shit is creepy.

--jaded

Oh since Cannibal Corpse's lyrics are unintelligable when he "sings" I just laugh at it and don't find it creepy or disgusting at all :D

--jaded

creepy songs...hmm...well i used to get a bit freaked out when i ran into music that used (black magic or whatever you call it) ritual frameworks--you can feel something funny going on--but over the past few years, i have been doing music involving ritual so it doesnt really work for me in the same way any more. turns out that i looked for this extramusical elevation all along, so it figured in the music i really like. most powerful stuff--which i suppose other folk would find creepy--is often gnawa (morrocan spirit-possession ritual performances--the recordings of the actual rituals are much more complicated/interesting than the snippets used by folk like brian jones...)

the oddest experiences involving music i have had are different from the above:

i accidentally went to a baseball game in philadelphia and within that larger accident had the strange luck to find myself standing in front of the flag pole during the singing of the national anthem---THAT was creepy...

being at the last peter gabriel show i will ever see, again in philly, during yossou n'dour's set, listening to fuckwits in the spectrum (the now-demolished space in which it was held) screaming racist epithets at the stage....

being at a who show in boston garden long long ago in the first row of the first balcony watching some nitwit shoot a roman candle into the boards of the hockey rink, watching them catch fire, watching the fire spread, realizing i was dead if the fire did not get put out.

listening to either dave matthews or phish generally creeps me out too. imagining that either band has an audience does too.

I've been into electronic music a lot as of late. One of my faves is Aphex Twin's "At the Heart of it All." Very creepy.

pink floyd- the gnome

I think mine would be Danzig's <B>Sadistikal</B>.
slow throbbing beat.. sound of whips.. chanting of sorts.. makes me feel like im in a satanic ritual or sumtin..

The Bloodhound Gang - "A Lap Dance is Always Better When the Stripper is Crying". Damn song makes my skin crawl.

Pretty much anything off "Bone Machine", "Rain Dogs", "The Black Rider", or "Swordfishtrombones", and some things off "Heartattack & Vine" and "Mule Variations" by Tom Waits. In particular, "What's He Building in There", "Singapore", "The Cemetary Polka", "Trouble's Braids", and "The Earth Died Screaming".

If you listen to it enough you can tell what he's saying.

Nothing really sticks out for me. Slayer has some crazy shit but so do a lot of metal bands.

That's actually on NIN's "Further Down the Spiral" album - it has samples of "Closer" on it. Creepy ass song.

Most disturbing song I've ever heard? "Jonestown Tea" by Otep:

And it sounds like...armageddon
Sounds like...armageddon
Sounds like...come and drink with me
Come and drink with me

And I remember him fucking me,
And I remember liking it,
I didn't know any better

And I remember the smell, and the pain, and the shame
And I remember being afraid and thinking everyday,
Every single day, that it was my fault.

Oh, but what happened to that little girl?
Who used to dream of one day ruling the world,
Who used to draw pretty pictures in my room
Beneath the moon
Destroying to create
Softly praying to God
What do I do now?
What do I do now?

As I secretely masturbate.
But then I'd hear his hooves coming down the floor
With a Bible in his hand
Softly opening my door and he'd say
DAUGHTER! The day of your attonement is due!
Well there's 3 million sinners out there
and that includes you!

No daddy, don't... no daddy, don't...
LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE!
NO, I DON'T WANT TO BE FREE!
NO, I DON'T WANT TO BE FREE!
SO TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME!
PLEASE TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME!
PLEASE TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME!
PLEASE TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME!

I'm bleeding, it's not fair.
You see, there's this little place I like to go
I like to run and hide, deep inside,
Where all the nightmares are real,
And all the monsters come alive,

Oh, but the things I've seen in soft, soft visions
And terrifying prophecies,
Like serpents on the stake and
Gods coming in all sizes and shapes
Nothing seems fulfilling anymore..
Well your temples are swollen in deceit
And the body of your missionary,
He's rotting - rotting in defeat.

Mama?
MAMA!
Are the aliens coming to take us away? (mama?)
Is armageddon gonna happen again today?
LOOK WHAT HE DID TO ME!
WHY DID YOU DO IT TO ME?!
HOW COULD YOU DO IT TO ME!
WHY DID YOU DO IT TO ME?!

I will not cry.
I will not cry.
I PREFER TO DIE!
Than live this life of LIES!

KILL WHAT YOU CAN
CHALLENGE EVERYTHING

Vengeance is mine.

Hey, I'm sorry baby.
please come back inside
We can laugh a little
And live and die.
No, wait, see, I've got this hot pot of jonestown tea
And it's been brewing for you and me.
Oh, it only takes one sip,
Come one baby,
Surrender your lips.

I can take you someplace nice...
I can take you someplace NICE!

Breed my disease, be my disease.
Breed my disease, be my disease.

And vengeance will be mine

It's closer than you think.

So I entered his room at 32 past noon
With my little ritual knife -
I cut out his tounge
Liberated his wife
She loved me for it - (other world woman)
Well, thats what she called me - (destroyer).

The one who sets you free, (come and drink with me)
We all die like cartoons
Surrender your children,
Kids who like to kill

Lies.
All lies.

That's Possum Kingdom. I love that song, it's like a love song gone bad.

I vote for Prison Sex by Tool.

Necro - White Slavery

Frank Zito, Tamma, For Ralphus (For Ralphus)
Natacha Dinatelli, Shout out to Saddam
do it, (laughing)

[Hook - Necro]
White slavery when bitches get put under seige
shoved into a van and kidnapped right from the street
never to be seen again by any of their peeps
just a victim buried deep in the world of creeps
who roam through alleyways accociating with freaks
you'll never be found but cops will be searching for weeks
looking for leaks, hoping somebody speaks
while your brain is washed and your memory they delete

[Verse 1 - Ill Bill]
Woman need to be loved, injected with needles and drugs
subjected to torture and kidnapped they need to succumb
it's proven, I feed em dog food, they prefer human
make 'em savagely beat each other bloody for my amusement
It's all fun and games, I keep 'em handcuffed in chains
sexually make 'em do the most disgusting things
starve 'em to cannibals, make 'em eat each others brains
changed and deranged, stores begin to seem like nothings strange
while retarded acquaintances get fist fucked and raped
covered in lighter fluid, lit up and ingulfed in flames
sound proof walls guarantee to muffle your screams
squirm on a shit stained mattres in a puddle of pee

selling you to the highest bidder for a bundle of D
and Imma be a scumbag till I'm a hundred and three
throw you in the back of a van, rag stuck in ya teeth
smothered in chloroform, you wake up smothered in creeps

[Hook]

[Verse 2 - Necro]
I'm enslaving woman from Ukraine, they don't understand english
but they understand pain, It's the language of anguish
your situations hopeless, decieved into dancing topless
then force you into prostitution with coke heads
police keep the silence while you sleep with clients
you prostest you won't eat and you get beat like a child does
and when your destroyed like woman from Latvia
you'll be sold to the muslim part of Bosnia by the mafia
from where there is no return forever
you'll be on ya knees labeled a coffee table in leather
we have no hearts with mafiosy, evil like Bella Lugosi
white slavery O.G.'s that own police
full of hate, Spanish midgets pull you out of crates
kidnapped woman dangled from chains their fate to be raped
killers with Frank Zito cuts deliver slaves in vans
from Iran that's delicacy like a gorilla's liver
like the stench of a roach

we'll bring it to you critics fowl like a blowgun
and a naked chick in a trenchcoat
chopping your feet of, don't shut the beat off
leave it, believe it we're coming to cut the meat off
and meat cleave it



********

Apart from that, watch the video for the beginning of the song Afx237 v7 by Aphex Twin on www.drukqs.net

Nothing truly disturbing but it creeps the fuck out of me.

Anything from Joy Division's "Atmosphere"

Terry Jack - Seasons In The Sun

A lot of Kate Bush's songs give me the willies. Maybe it's that Fairlight synthesizer she was playing during the Hounds of Love period. "Running Up That Hill" is especially eery.

For me, it's "Country Death Song" by the Violent Femmes. I'll post the lyrics here with a spoiler tag (it's better if you listen to the song first for the full effect).

Spoiler: I had me a wife, I had me some daughters.
I tried so hard, I never knew still waters.
Nothing to eat and nothing to drink.
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think.
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think.

Well, I'm a thinkin' and thinkin', till there's nothin' I ain't thunk.
Breathing in the stink, till finally I stunk.
It was at that time, I swear I lost my mind.
I started making plans to kill my own kind.
I started making plans to kill my own kind.

Come little daughter," I said to the youngest one,
Put your coat on, we'll have some fun.
We'll go out to mountains, the one to explore.
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door.
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door.

Come little daughter, I will carry the lanterns.
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caverns.
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caves.
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves.
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves.

A led her to a hole, a deep black well.
I said "make a wish, make sure and not tell and
close you're eyes dear, and count to seven.
You know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven.
You know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven.

I gave her a push, I gave her a shove.
I pushed with all my might, I pushed with all my love.
I threw my child into a bottomless pit.
She was screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit.
She was screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit.

Gather round boys to this tale that I tell.
You wanna know how to take a short trip to hell?
It's guarenteed to get your own place in hell.
Just take your lovely daughter and push her in the well.
Take your lovely daughter and throw her in the well.

Don't speak to me of lovers, with a broken heart.
You wanna know what can really tear you apart?
I'm going out to the barn, will I never stop in pain?
I'm going out to the barn, to hang myself in shame.



Edit: I now see this was mentioned a good many posts above mine on this page.

What do I have to do? By Stabbing Westward.
The basic premise is a man is stalking a woman and all he wants to do is force her to love him. Combine this with the music video and it's fairly creepy.

anything by kana.. lol check her song samples out, they're very scary http://www.teichiku.co.jp/artist/kana/disco/disco.html

its kind of disturbing to see a bunch of songs that i would consider normal or almost cheery being deemed "spooky/creepy..." such as nirvana 'rape me,' or disturbed 'down with the sickness' -- not to mention toadies 'possum kingdom.' how is that creepy?!

anyway.. my vote goes to BLUR, 'death of a party.'
