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.

#1 on the Dr Demento Show back in 1973!

So it got airplay. At least the Holy Modal Rounders cover version did.

But the video graphics push it over the edge.

I loved it. Reminded me of this (sorry about the band’s name, I won’t post it, cover your eyes)

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

Thank you. The correct link is (J. Edgar Swoop)

The link I posted was the next automatically played Youtube video selection.

The lyrics in the link are a revision from the lyrics I posted, but are mostly the same, as is the music.

A few of the folks in the video were from the Wagakki Band.

Here's a link to their first video - it's got close to 62 million hits in the last three and a half years. Lots of live material available on the sidebar if you like them.

That’s a haunting song, one for the ages. Here’s another shipwreck song, the wreck isn’t obscure but this band is:

Bears & Company - Carroll A. Deering

Not exactly a weird song but another cultural mash-up, I believe the song is an old Hungarian folksong performed by the band Veszelka Commando. And let me state for the record, every rock band need a set of bagpipes !

It’s sort of Japanese metal with a vaguely country vibe to it, nice.

I’m going to throw in another one of my own. This woman embodies the weirdness that is Asheville, NC. To me, hers is a very affecting sound. So strange, a little creepy but also so warm. I’ve loved her for a very long time.

Here’s another 90’s favorite, with a nice film noir style video somebody created for it. This is the explicit version so there’s an unfortunate F bomb or two:

Porno For Pyros - Pets

I heard this one on the afternoon of 9/11 while driving in my car. I don’t know why but it brought me to tears, I had to pull the car over. I’ve loved it ever since. For that reason, it’s weird to me.

Talking Heads - City Of Dreams
