Haven't heard that in a while. Still disturbing no doubt.

How about "Dance with the Devil" by Immortal Technique?

Oh yes!
Dance With the Devil! Haven't heard that in a while.

Neither am I. Not sure I'm quite ready to experience that one again.

"Frankie Teardrop" by Suicide and "State Trooper" by Bruce Springsteen, the latter seeming to be inspired by the former.

Ewww. This really IS a rather creepy song. Disturbing, to boot.

It's from the 60s. Use to scare me when I was little..... that thumping sound.

reply

[–] mplo (2356) 7 years ago

It was a rather scary song, but many people considered it laughable, at the time, as well.

reply

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

Oh, it's a funny song! Especially toward the end when you realize who the guy is talking to.
I just meant that as a child, that thumping and the weird guy scared me.

I know what you mean, MissMargoChanning, and I see your point.

Closer by Nine Inch Nails

Absolutely.

I'm a Nine Inch Nails fan and I like this song quite a bit, but I think the lyrics are gratuitously vulgar. Not even interesting enough to qualify as "disturbing".

The tori Amos cover of '97 Bonnie and Clyde'

Adam's Song by Blink 182 gets me. It is very listenable and even catchy but extremely melancholy, especially given its inspiration.

I just listened to Odd to Billy Joe again recently db, I agree that it is disturbing. The suicide of a boy and the apparent indifference of his friends family upon hearing the news.
Did you see the film that was based on the song ?

reply

[–] db20db (17255) 7 years ago

Yes, I did, many years ago.

Anything by "Gwar" or "The Mentors." I don't listen to either.
