Weird songs you've loved

If you've ever had an inexplicable love for a song that's just strange, post a link to it here. Should be amusing and entertaining for a Saturday night.

The link is to Mason Williams playing “Classical Gas” on the Smothers Brothers Show?

Hilarious sendup of classic Shatner overacting.

There are a number of fans of Die Antwoord here on FR, believe it or not, so it might not be as freaky as U fink.

Frank Zappa must’ve seemed like he was from another planet in his era, but I have a number of friends who are classically trained musicians and they all absolutely love them some Zappa.

This is the first time I heard it, I tend to agree. It’d definitely goofy and fun.

Nice voice, a very warm and personable performance with comical subject matter, I’ve never heard of Billy Edd Wheeler but he reminds me of Pete Seeger.

I know that song and video very well, have actually posted it here on FR several times. I could watch Les Claypool on that four string all day. I actually like the possessed plastic cowboy thing, think it was inspired, lol.

I’ve always liked that song despite the very odd lyrics. I’ve actually met Morrissey, we ended up calling him Morbissey.
